Midi and audio regions are getting moved

Hallo... I am working on my arrangement on Logic Pro 9.1.8. I have many midi regions on a few tracks. I added a few audio tracks and started to slice them and reversed some parts. (I also played with new key commands) Now all the regions on each track (midi and audio) seem to be tied up. When I delete one region all the others (on this track) shift toward its position. Why does it happen?
(Locking SMPTE position partly helps but I would like to have access and be able to edit the regions). Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like you've got your drag mode (upper right of arrange) set to one of the shuffle settings.

Midi and audio regions overlap when recording with autodrop

Say you are playing a melody for notation purposes with midi. You record 2 bars. Region is 2 bars long. You learn the next 2 bars and notice that this phrase actually starts at bar 2 beat 4. So you set autodrop to bar 2 beat 4 and punch in. The new region begins at bar 2 beat 1. If you adjust the region start point you see the end of the first region hiding behind it. In the score window, before trimming that new regions start point, you see rests for the new region and notes from the first region together..really lame. If you trim the new regions start point to bar 2 beat 4 it looks right. This is in replace mode mind you.... Why doesn't the punch appear at the autodrop location instead of at the beginning of the bar. I don't remember logic working like this before, did it? Seems like it was doing the same thing with audio, had regions hiding all over the place behind punches...very confusing. I saw a similar post but it didn't seem to resolve this issue...Is it a bug?

A few things (and there aren't many) regarding capture recording... For me it's been a tried-and-true feature of Logic for a very long time and continues to work flawlessly.
How Capture Works (and some operational notes)
Logic continually captures any and all MIDI data from the time you hit PLAY to the time you hit STOP, even if you're not "in record". Notes, program changes, controllers, sysex, anything MIDI will get buffered as you play and are ready to be turned into a region once you hit your Capture k/c. You can play to picture, improvise, whatever, for a very long time and never worry about Logic losing any of what you played.
The KEY is that after you hit STOP, you must hit your Capture k/c before hitting PLAY again, because once you hit PLAY, the MIDI buffer is, out of necessity, be cleared.
However, you don't need to STOP Logic to use Capture. You can play along with a track and hit Capture at any time. Logic will create a MIDI region from what you played and continue capturing additional MIDI data from your real-time performance while Logic continues to run. So you can start Logic, play some stuff, capture, play some stuff, capture, all without hitting STOP. In this scenario, just remember that if you hit STOP at any point that you will need to hit Capture that last bit of your performance (if you hadn't done so already) before hitting PLAY again.
One other operational note that's really important...
CYCLE MODE: If Logic is set to cycle and the cycle wraps to the L-locator before you've captured your performance, you will lose what's in the MIDI buffer. Jumping back to the L-locator in cycle mode is the equivalent of hitting STOP and then hitting PLAY. This is probably the single most important thing to watch out for. I've lost a few good "noodlings" because I had my L-locator set too close.
Hope this helps. I'd be curious to learn of your Capture experiences and see what you guys think!

Midi and audio tracks are not synchronised properly?

no problem for a year and then after synchronizing my old Roland VS 880 in order to transfer audio tracks to a new project in my mac all new audio recordings run out of sync with the midi percussion tracks. They move along together but not quite in sync. It sounds as though the guitar parts have been badly played but believe me that is not the case.

Good question. I don't know. If the sampling frequency changed it did it on it's own because I have never even come across that before. I am going to look around logic to try and educate myself but so much time has been lost already I am at my wits end. We couldn't talk could we? Are you with skype?

Dragging midi and audio regions... Shortcut question...

Sometimes I have trouble dragging regions to a precise point. For example, if I enter some midi data (e.g. an organ melody or something) into a track through my computer keyboard and want to align some of the notes to the beat I can't always.
There is the "Snap" drop down list but regardless of which option "Beat," Frames" etc. I choose the notes won't align to a beat. Always like a few frames off or something unless I max out the horizontal zoom.
Logic seems to want to move data incrementally relative to where it was originally entered or something.
Is there some way to override this and tell Logic to always let me drag regions exactly to a beat or bar regardless of where in the measure the region was entered?
Also,
Is there a keyboard shortcut for horizontal and vertical zoom in the midi editor?
TIA!

for precise midi editing I set my snap to ticks. I believe that Logic's default is 480 ticks per quarter note, but then again, I may be wrong
there are many shortcuts for zooming in and out. There is of course the zoom tool, where you can select the spot you want to zoom into then just click on thew background of your window to un-zoom (is that a word?) or zoom back out again. I use the key command, hold down control and use the arrow keys on your mac keyboard
if you open up your key command window and do a search for zoom, you will find some handy stuff. you can set up key commands for zoom memory, to recall zoom positions

Can't recording Midi and Audio at the same time

I'm in GREAT need of help. I can't record midi and audio at the same time. I'm using an M AUDIO project mix I/O. I know this is VERY basic stuff but I can't seem to get it to work.I can record multiple audio at once. ANd I can record midi but not at the same time. PLEASE help . Is there a setting somewhere I need to change ? Thanks

Hi!
Enable all audio tracks (R) you wish to record. Then make sure you select the audio instrument you are using on the left of the arrange page (track list). If you here your input, hold shift, then highlight (gray) the mentioned audio tracks you wish to record on. When R is red, and the proper tracks are grey, you can record. Hope that made sense!

Error Garageband - can't sync midi and audio

I have no midi attached but still get an error message "Can't sync midi and audio".
All I am trying to do is record a voice-over using the built in mic on the iMac. But this error message keeps popping up constantly. I close it and then 10 seconds later it pops up again.
Why is garageband trying to sync a mid that I have not connected?

Midi and Audio tracks simultaneously armed for recording

All, whilst engaged in laying down the bass track for the guitar solo section of my latest monster his, I encountered one of those sorts of frustrations that makes one long for some means of swift egress from this mortal coil, this vale of tears: that is, while laying down my totally awesome bass track that when they hear it will send JP Jones and Boosty Collins to employee as actuaries, I kept getting the hateful "unable to synchronize the audio and midi error." I'll spare you the catalog of the various lame attempts I understood to remedy this problem, as well as the curses directed toward my fate, and Daw ineptitude in general. Then I nnoticed that both the software instrument tracks (Addictive drums) and the audio track (aforementioned bass) were both armed for recording, signified by the red R in the track header! Well, upon de-arming the software instrument track I was able to record by bass line in a mimimum of takes, and as visions of illegal intozicants and comen of questionable morals dance through my noggin as recompsense for my trouble, with to make the point to all relative newbies such as myself that the answer to problems that seem on surface intractable as usually staring you right in the glazed eyeball.

What?...
I'm sorry maybe I don't understand everything you are sayng... but I can replay to the titles of the Topic!
Actually recording a MIDI instrument and an Audio Track symultaneously comes with serious bug!!!
you cannot use Punch-in on Fly when an Audio and instrument track is armed at the same time...
or better you can but the MIDI and audio output will be dropped for a moment
Provide a Logic feedback
http://www.apple.com/feedback/logicpro.html!
THIS IS A LOGIC 8 BUG!!! BIGGEST SERIOUS BUG!
I suggest you to use Logic 7 when you need that!
Thank you so much for remember me this..
I'm sorry no alternative solution... or.. if you have 2 Macs you can use one for Logic MIDI and another one for Logic Audio!

Replace mode midi and audio

I hope I'm missing something. when recording midi and audio at the same time, with merge and replace turned on, the midi is ok but the audio is NOT in replace. Is there a way around that. If not does logic have a play what's on top structure like nuendo? I need to emulate a tape machine as closely as possible in this application
Thanx

i am not sure if this answers this. Your audio is not sounding like a tape machine?
Try inserting an au unit like: Tape delay, Stereo Delay, or Sample delay, which are all within logic.
If you want the full effect place it in the insert. If you want a partial effect send it as a bus.
I hope this helps.

IPad2 - Midi and Audio interfaces / Camera Kit

iPad2 question I have Midi and Audio interfaces, specifically Edirol UM-880 for Midi and Edirol UA-5 for Audio. If I get an Apple Camera Connection Kit, will they work with my iPad2

Check out the iRig:
http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/irigmidi/
It will connect "any" MIDI device to an iPad/iPhone.
(i don't have this--yet. I'm just using a USB powered keyboard with a powered USB hub with my iPad.)

In IMovie my project view is fine until it is finalized and then images are getting partially cut off on top(people's heads etc) Is there something I can do?

My issue turned out possibly being a larger problem.
All of a sudden the server is in a bad, bad way. 30 minutes to get booted to the login screen. If I try to login I get beachballs for half a second at a time. I type login/password, the screen refreshes and I'm back to the login screen. I can't connect a keyboard/mouse directly to it, because it wants to do the keyboard recognition (I'm not using an Apple keyboard because they're all Bluetooth and I can't get in to do the Bluetooth sync). I can't do Disk Utility, because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut. I can't do Hardware Test, because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut. Can't reinstall Snow Leopard Server, because in their infinite wisdom Apple has removed the optical drive, and even if I had the optical, it wouldn't do any good because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut that would allow me to boot from the DVD.
I tried to do target disk override from Remote Desktop but it won't let me choose my other Mac's Remote Disc as a boot option. It also continues to show the Server as "Offline" even though power is on and it's on the network.
I would do my 2010 Air's USB drive - just to do a Disk Utility and see if it's a drive problem - but I can't tell the Server to boot from the USB stick.
Tried using my iMac as a monitor, that worked for a while, now it just flashes and then goes back to the iMac.
I'm thinking the logic board on this thing is about to die. Which is unfortunate, since my company opted out of AppleCare for this piece of equipment, and the 1 year expired last month. So...if the repair is going to end up being $800, they're going to have to pony up for a new server.

Apps like temple run 2 and subway surfers are getting stuck and it is very very slow.My ipod has 2.6 gb free space. What is the problem. I am not getting to know. Even after i reinstalled these apps it is still getting stuck and it is very very slow. Is this what i get after paying so much money for ipod. Is this what i get very poor perfomance.

Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:

Can't Record Midi and audio Simultaneously

I just noticed that I cant record audio and midi simultaneously. I wanted to record a audio vocal track as I was recording a midi piano track but it wouldn't record. If I selected the audio track, the midi track wasn't heard. If I selected the midi track, I could hear the piano, but the audio wouldn't record. Weird. I had to record the midi track, and then go back and arm 2 audio tracks for recording. One for the vocal and the other to convert the midi track into a audio track. I don't understand why I can't record midi and audio at the same time. I am using a MOTU 896HD for my audio, so I can record up to 8 audio tracks at a time.
Does anyone have any clues as to how to set this up to record midi and audio at the same time?

Setup your audio and midi tracks and then hold the shift key and hit the record button on each of them. Both audio and midi will record.

My podcasts artwork is no longer appearing and my podcasts are getting cut in half.

My podcasts artwork is no longer appearing and my podcasts are getting cut in half.

Your podcast image appears in the Store OK: there is no embedded image in the media file.
When I subscribed your top image downloaded and played perfectly well. I couldn't get the top episode in the Store to play.
When I entered the URL for the top episode in the feed into Safari, instead of playing withing Safari as it should do there was a double redirect (too fast for me to note the URLs) and the file then downloaded rather than playing. This sort of thing is very likely to upset the Store: you should ideally provide a direct URL to the media file with no redirects, and it should play in Safari rather than force a download.

How to record midi and audio at the same time?

Hello,
I have a Roland sh-201 synth and Logic 9. When I use patches from the sh-201, it will record it via audio. What if I wanted to record the audio but also have the midi information as well? How would I be able to accomplish this? My synth is connected via USB which carries both midi and audio. Sorry for my poor english, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

Hi
Logic will record both audio and MIDI at the same time, but you *MUST* have the Software Instrument/MIDI track selected in the Arrange Track List.
The audio track must be 'Record Ready':
