Master Levels for multiple tracks on one CD

working on an LP. of course, i would like all songs to be of the same volume/presence. how can i do this. with the little scrub volume marker on the lower right? i always thought it was levels for simply listening, but just realized it must be for the sake of Exporting to iTunes as well, right? i know you can adjust the master vol and master pitch via the track, but what role does the scrub marker in the lower right hand corner play?
thanks!!!

It's exactly what you think it is, it sets the final playing and exported level of the entire mix. To get all songs to sound like they're at a similar level you use the Master volume control with Compression, or limiting with-in GB. Using other software for proper mastering you might likely use a combination of Compression/EQ/Limiting.

Balancing audio levels for multiple tracks in PP CS6 ...

I have a relatively long home movie (1:50) with clips from multiple cameras dispersed throughout.   One of the camera's audio is far lower than the rest.    What is the easiest/fastest way for a consumer editor to get a reasonable result? Doesn't have to be perfect, but eliminating the need to hold the TV volume button is the goal.   I'm guessing some of you out there have dealt with this issue a few times and can give me a boost.
I've seen some tutorial videos on using the Audio Mixer, but that appears to adjust volume for an entire track.   I suppose an option here is to manually move all of the quieter clips' audio tracks to a different track number and then use the mixer to adjust.   Trial and error I assume to get it right.
Another video I found shows balancing by pulling up clips one by one into Soundbooth and then processing them together. I don't own Soundbooth unless it ships with CS6 and I didn't know to install it. I like the concept though - some way to normalize (if the right term) the volume, although certainly I want some variance so that when someone is shouting or screaming the volume is still higher.
Other videos show adjustments to the volume level by dragging the little yellow volume line on a clip by clip basis inside the track display.   Easy enough, but if I end up deciding I want to make further adjustments I have to go back through all the clips again.   I suppose one advantage here is that those quieter clips sometimes run in batches so could use key frames.
Feedback?

Just closing the loop here ...
I ended up doing the separate track and audio mixer volume adjustment with some individual clip gain tweaks.   Turns out one of my cameras was quiet and another loud, so I used three audio tracks in my movie, one for footage from each camera (luckily the two offenders were more limited).   The nice thing about this approach is that adjustments are easy to make across the board.
On the 6db volume gain, turns out that was enough. Maybe someone has some input here, but I find that watching video on my TV with my surround sound system the volume levels are way more sensitive than my PC.   Ok, not 100% - there were a couple of clips where I upped the gain as well.
The gain adjustment and looking at the waveform diagram is very useful for getting an idea of what level of adjustment is required.   So I did make use of this feature to get feedback on how to adjust the volume level noted above.
If I was really serious, I would have done a bunch of marking key frames and adjusting the volume within the clips.   One of my cameras is really loud when the person filming speaks but the other subjects are much softer. But I took an 80/20 approach and the movie is a little loud in some spots and a little soft in others, but not so much that I have to adjust the volume button. It would be tedious to edit all the footage in this way.   Although I did make use of the key frames for some background music.
Needles: I was looking for a consumer level solution, although admittedly didn't investigate what you suggested.

Is it possible to combine multiple Pur Reqs for multiple materials to one vendor into one PO through MD07?

We have material planners who use MD07 (traffic signal screen) Stock/Requirements List, Collective Access tab to review material requirements by MRP Controller. Once the list is created, they select individual materials and review them in MD04. In a lot of cases, Purchase Reqs (PRs) are reviewed and adopted into POs individually for each material. Sometimes they will combine multiple PRs for one material into one PO. This is a good practice. However, from what I have found, it is not possible to combine multiple PRs for multiple materials into one PO. If this was done it would dramatically reduce the number of POs that we are issuing to suppliers. Problem statement: We issue too many POs which causes additional influxes down the line (receiving dock/goods receipts processing, receiving issues, invoices, invoice issues, etc.). Does anyone know of a way to address this problem without a major overhaul in approach or customization of the system? Thank you in advance!

Hello Michael
As far as I know, this is not possible directly from MD07, only from the MM transactions.
The following thread suggests the following procedure to convert several PRs into one PO:
Conversion of multiple PR into single P.O
Drag and drop the first PR from the item overview to the shopping card on top of ME21N,
then open the PO detail delivery schedule tab and drag and drop all other PR to the shopping card shown in the schedule tab
You can use the same procedure, calling the order conversion from MD07 and then drag and drop another PRs into this PO.

How do i convert multiple tracks into one large mp3?

how do i convert multiple tracks into one large mp3?

Hi,
You can use an app such as Audacity or Join Together to create one larger file. If AAC file used instead of mp3, you could use GarageBand.
If you have the original CD, you can join the tracks whilst re importing disc.

Volume curve for multiple tracks?

I'm just learning to score films with GarageBand. My first snag is that I want to be able to adjust volume curves on multiple tracks without affecting the audio track of the movie. Is this possible? It's kind of a bother to have to create control points for EACH track that are all identical and then having to adjust them individually. The Master Volume doesn't help, because the movie track follows it unless there's some way to lock it out. Thanks!
Also, any good tutorials out there for scoring movies with GarageBand?

you can not.
the only workaround i can think of would be to create a volume curve on one track, and then duplicate that track as many times as needed, and drag the regions of your other tracks into these duplicated tracks.

Multiple tracks in one matrix window

can anyone tell me how to get midi data from multiple tracks to show up in a single matrix window for editing?

wow. cool trick.
but it would be more helpful to me if i could select a few tracks... for example.. kick,snare,hihat, and bass. then open those 4 tracks in one matrix window. then the editing of those tracks would be very intuitive because of their relation to each other. is this possible?
ps.- why are so many things in logic "cool tricks?" I wonder if i can buy a secret book of Logics "cool tricks" at masonic temple or maybe from a wandering member of the knights templar.

Multiple Tracks on one NWDI system

Is it possible to have multiple tracks for different applications in one NWDI system? Say I have an xRPM environment (DEV, QAS, and PRD) and a BW environment (DEV, QAS, and PRD). Is it possible to support a seperate track for each application in a single NWDI system? I am currently investigation whether or not I would like to implement NWDI and this is a key question I have. Thanks for your help!

Hi Jon,
I agree that some fundamental documenattion is missing. When looking at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/45/68d64260752a78e10000000a155106/frameset.htm one could make it out but it isnt clear.

Directory Structure for multiple applications at one host

Can I have multiple (more than one) WEB-INF directory structures in the public_html directory for different web applications? If I do this, how do setup the url-pattern in the Servlet Mapping tag in the web.xml file? How do I setup the URL that calls the servlet from the HTML that has been send to the user�s browser?

If I understand your question, you want multiple contexts. All App Servers/Web Servers allow you to setup multiple contexts. Normally if your root context is in /home/myhome/app_server/
then you would setup multiple contexts by creating a folder for each context:
/home/myhome/app_server/context1/
/home/myhome/app_server/context2/
Each would have their own full application/website. And the way to reference these would be as such:
if the domain, www.mydomain.com, is mapped to /home/myhome/app_server/
www.mydomain.com/context1/
www.mydomain.com/context2/
I think that is what you were asking. Hope it helps

Hi, with mix16 pro app, can anyone tell me when you set different audio levels for different tracks, does the app remember the level set the next time you use it? Or does it default to the original setting when you power down after a show? Thanks!

Hi
I use backing tracks for some songs with a live band and we are having some issues with levels. Some are higher than others etc. I use i pad to run the tracks. I am looking for an app that where I can control the levels better. Ideally, an app where I can set the level of each track to a desired level and leave it at that level for good. Mix16 Pro seems to do that but I wonder does it save the setting as I do not want to set the levels every time I use it.
Thanks

JAR Files for multiple tracks

Hi All,
We have a scenario where we need to provide JAR files which needs to be accessible by all the tracks.Is there any solution which is being followed.
In the current landscape we have built external library DC's for each track and trying to access the JARS. But the limitation where we are struck up is this DC is being only accessible to DC's in that track but not to the remaining tracks.
Is there a global solution where we i can make my JAR file can be made accessible to multiple tracks.
Thanks & Regards,
Lokesh Kamana.

Hi,
Thats a good idea.
I have a SC component created in SLD and create a track for this and copy the ext lib DC to this track.
Define outbound connections for moving transports.
But how to create an SCA file for my DC.
ANS:-Just by clicking on assembly get a SCA file for this track and as outbound connection is defined this SCA gets moved to my track import that to all my tracks where i carry out my development.
While moving the transports to other environments do i need to move this SCA file also along with them.
Please let me know whether my understanding is correct or not.
Thanks & Regards,
Lokesh Kamana.

Cannot select Get Info for multiple tracks

I just updated to Lion 10.7.3 and iTunes 10.6.1 and imported my Leopard iTunes Library. I can Get Info on individual tracks but when I shift select or command select multiple tracks the iTunes window turns gray and nothing can be selected. iTunes just freezes until I press the Escape key. So far, everything else works as expected - the only problem is selecting multiple tracks (which worked fine for me on previous OS and iTunes versions).
I haven't found any reports of similar problems so maybe I'm doing it wrong.
Any suggestions?

I solved my own problem - the last time I used iTunes was on a two monitor system. I still have the second monitor connected but it was turned off and the iTunes Get Info window for MULTIPLE selected items was opening on the second monitor. When I did a Get Info on a single selection, the window appeared on the main monitor normally - behavior which never made me think that multiple items would show up in a different window on the turned off monitor.

Loop length for multiple tracks

Is there a way to set the length of loop repitition, for different tracks?
I tried this the other day, with two tracks that I set up to loop, and when I adjusted the loop length in the top of the arrange window, both tracks were affected.
I want to have one track loop 5 measures, and the second track only 3 but am not sure how to do that.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
RH3906

This is how I do it. Select the track, click on the midi/audio file you have dragged to the track. Then click the 'loop' check box (top left). This will loop the sample all the way to the 'end'. Now simply hover your pointer over where each loop sample is joined and the pointer should change to a different icon - kind of an arrow in a half loop. Now if you click on the sample when you have this pointer you can now drag back and forth where you want the loop to end. Do this for the other track, you can choose how many bars you want it to loop.
What you cant do is set up a loop all the way to the end and make 'holes', that is parts where the loop doesn't happen.
If you want a loop to start again in a different place, simply drag the sample to the new starting location and repeat above.
Hope this helps.

How to move multiple tracks from one location to another on HD and keeping iTunes updated?

Hi all
I'd like to move/re-arrange some subdirectories of my iTunes' main folder and I'd like to keep iTunes library updated without broken links without needing to re-imports the moved albums/tracks. Is there any method to do this? Even with the help of some utility or app?
thanks in advance!

iTunes works this way. You add a file. It makes a note of its location and metadata stored in the file and adds this to its own library database.
Note: All my answers are with reference to iTunes 7.5 (yes, 7.5). I've stopped trying to keep up with Apple's newer stuff which is why I rarely come here anymore.
Answers to your specific questions.
1&2) I think I have in the past copied a file with the identical name over an existing file and iTunes was fooled into thinking it was the original file. However, it didn't update the metadata in its own database until I highlighted the file briefly in a playlist. This causes the original file to be re-read. The same thing happens if I use a third party metadata editor to change the metadata in a file. iTunes will continue to display the old data until I briefly select the file in a playlist or it starts to play the file.
You can, by the way, add two files with the identical name (but in two different folders obviously) and iTunes will add them both as individual entries, even if the metadata is identical.
3) I don't have iTunes Match obviously (I can't even see the Store anymore with iTunes 7). My third hand understanding is it won't do anything to your original files. If it finds a match it will automatically download the match to your iTunes folder as if you had all the preferences settings set to use it normally. I'm guessing you will then have two files for that track and you'll need to work on cleaning up the lesser quality one unless you want to just leave it. Again, can't speak from experience.
I have both preferences options de-selected and don't want to select them to test my reply. I don't want iTunes to do either because I have media organized by kind and source over two internal hard drives and 3 partitions. I 100% manage my media manually and have always done it that way. I think option 2 has iTunes restructure your folders according to album and artist. I deselected both because i didn't want to constantly be fighting iTunes in its attempt to organize things how it wanted.
If you're going to manage your media manually then you need to understand how iTunes works in detail and be willing to stay on top of it. iTunes is designed to do everything on its own so people don't have to worry about things. By unclicking its default preferences or moving files yourself in Finder or using a script to do so you are also figuratively clicking a button that says, "Okay, I know what I am doing and iTunes works." Normally rule #1 with iTunes is never, never move a file to a different location in Finder and you'll see a lot of posts here from people who have "lost" items becaause they moved a folder or renamed it. Maybe iTunes behaves differently when you deselect those preferences because I do this all the time and iTunes can track it as long as I don't move it to a different volume/drive. I am very careful not to lose things or make duplicates, and of course I back up my computer before any major editing.

How to install applications for multiple iPads with one ID?

Hey guys,
I have to prepare many iPads for work, and I've found the process to be very redundant. In order to ensure that the applications are tied to the ID of the final client, I have to first create an account under my email, download all the applications and then change the email to the client's. Now when I have to prepare another device, I have to delete the applications in iTunes and re-download them with a new account to make sure they are tied to the next ID. Is there a way to download and sync all the applications under one ID, and not have issue with updates in the future? Keep in mind I'm only installing free applications.

I was referring in particular to the logs that are created by Workshop
itself (in the workshop directory). It creates workshop.log and netui.log.

Steven,
which workshop log file are you referring to ?
the workshop log files are usually saved to the domain directory.
If the developers are each going to start their own server instances then
there should be no issues.
The best option for you is to create multiple domains for each developer.
They will share the same workshop installation, but they will each have
their own instances.

Hello,
What is the best way to install the WL 8.1 Platform for multiple
developers on a single UNIX machine? These developers may start
concurrent instances.
The problems I see are that the log files generated by Workshop would
be shared among concurrent users, permissions would need to be set so
that the user that is running the instance that creates the log files
will need to create the file with permissions that everyone can use. Are
there any other issues to doing this?
I could not find the information on this in the documentation.

Use case for multiple crosstabs under one datasource

I'm trying to understand why one would have multiple crosstabs for one datasource. When I change one crosstab, it changes the other crosstab. I was could have a different layout for multiple crosstabs.
Thanks.
Regards,
Mel Calucin

Hi Mel,
I am not following this question; would it be possible to rephrase it?
You could have multiple tabs for a data source - such as a one tab showing the result set in a cross tab and the other for a chart.
