Missing waveforms in hybrid synth

anyone seen this before, in the waveform dialogue of the synth's editing window it always says "MISSING" in front of every waveform. cannot make any other selection there.

Yep. I had a lovely FCP system under Tiger, just upgraded to Leopard last week along with our XSAN upgrade. Now FCP is screwed up in a number of ways. The disappearing waveforms not the least of which. I've trashed my waveform cache...NEIN! It did not help the situation. I need waveforms to edit. This needs to be fixed. We're a half AVID half FCP house and I'm tired of seeing the AVID guys edit without issue and all of us who are stuck with FCP are struggling to get it to work properly while running Leopard.
It has nothing to do with processor speed. I'm running a 3GHZ Quad processor and this issue is persisting.

Missing Waveform Monitors - New Install, Most Recent Premiere CC 2014

Hi,
I recently downloaded and installed Premiere Pro CC and related apps with a cloud subscription on a new Mac Pro tower. I connected by working RAIDs and opened a PPro project originated on my previous edit system, an iMac. Right away I noticed some strange behavior and key features missing when I went to color correct my footage.
With the desired timeline active in the "Editing" workspace, I used the keyboard shortcut (I also tried this with the dropdown menu) and switched the workspace to color correction. Rather than the timeline activated in the "editing" workspace, a completely different timeline in the project appeared in the "color correction" space. This occurred multiple times with seemingly every timeline, but the one I desired to correct activating in the "color correction" space.
Also, the waveform monitors are absent from both the reference and program viewer menus. I can't seem to the find them anywhere. This leaves me feeling a bit crazy, as I was operating in the most current PPro CC version on the iMac just yesterday and everything was in its place.
Thoughts on what is going on here?
Here are my system specs:
Mac Pro
Yosemite 10.10.1
Processor: 3.5 GHz 6-COre Intel Xeon E5
Memory: 32 GB 1886 MHz DDR3 ECC
Graphics: AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB
For now I suppose, I'll try uninstalling and re-installing the app. Other ideas? Anyone else experiencing this?
Lindsay

Thank you for all of the feedback. I have tried un-installing and re-installing twice now. Once using the cleaner tool and once without. Neither has remedied the problem. I was sure to check "Remove Preferences" when performing the un-install, but when I opened a new project after the re-installation, PPro opened in the "Color Correction" workspace rather than opening in the standard editing workspace and still no scopes.
Other ideas?
I found this thread, which isn't boosting my confidence in a healthy Premiere / Mac Pro relationship, but I have seen no mention of the missing scopes issue I am experiencing. And really I haven't progressed to the point of attempting an export or render. As you well know, scopes are vital, and there's no point exporting if I can't properly polish a product.

Why am I missing the first sample with an E-series DAQ?

I am continuously acquiring a repetitive waveform. I generate an external, gated channel clock, which acquires about 50% of the waveform. I initially trigger the acquisition to be sure the first sample of the first waveform is always in the same location. About 50% of the time I miss the first sample. It acts like there needs to be a convert clock before the trigger, and if there isn't, it eats my first convert clock (sample). Any suggestions?

Ron,
Thanks for your response. Actually, the trigger and convert clock is
generated externally by a 40 MHZ FPGA and are very accurately phase
locked. I have verified on an oscilloscope that they are not jumping
around.
I'm acquiring a repetitive waveform so I have a trigger and then,
after about 10us, a train of ~ 1000 convert clocks to acquire the
waveform. After a delay the sequence starts again. I'm acquiring
continuously because I can't afford to miss waveforms so, after the
initial trigger, the trigger is ignored. I then rely on the fact that
I know how many samples are in each waveform to display and save the
data to a file.
I believe the problem happens when the Labview software initially
enables the DAQ. If the DAQ is enabled during the dead
time, it won't
see a convert pulse prior to the first trigger. If it is enabled right
after the trigger, I will see a convert pulse before the trigger.
I acquire in two different modes. On acquires 50% of the waveform and
has convert pulses present 50% of the time. The second mode acquires
almost 100% of the time with only a 100us deadtime at the end of each
waveform. In the 50% mode I miss the first pulse about 50% of the
time. In the ~100% mode I haven't yet missed a pulse. When I miss the
first pulse, all the subsequent data gets shifted by one sample, and
the last sample becomes what should be the 1st sample of the next
waveform.
So my theory is that the DAQ needs to see at least one convert pulse
after it is initialized by the software prior to being triggered.
Otherwise it eats my first sample.
Thanks for your help,
Barry

NF980-G65-THE TEMP PF CHIPSET IS VERY HIGH?OVERCLOCK CENTER?HYBRID POWER?

HELLO TO EVERYONE
I HAVE RECENTLY HAVE BUILD A SLI-GEFORCE-NF980 BASED SYSTEM. MY BOARD CAME NEAR HALF THE WORLD . I LIVE IN IRAN AND I PURCHASE IT FROM AMERICA .IT WORKED VERY WELL IN FIRST RUN .AND SLI WORKED BY A CLICK (I STRONGLY RECOMEND USE SLI WITH NVIDIA CHIPSET BASED MOBOS).ALSO THERE ARE SOME ISSUE . A SATA CABLE DIDN,T WORKED AND WITH A CABLE CHANGE EVERY THING WAS OK. IN THE OTHER HAND THE SYSTEM IS NOT QUITE AS I THOUGHT.( ATHLON II 635-2.9 GH-2 9800GT ONE OF THEM IS PASSIVE COOLED( GIGABYTE) OTHER HAS A SMALL FAN( ZOTAC SYNERGY)
NOW I HAVE SOME QUASTION:
1-THE TEMP OF CHIPSET IS VERY HIGHT( ABOUT 100 C) OTHER COMPONENTS ARE GOOD.WHAT IS PROBLEM?I HAVE SEEN SOMEBODY HAVE THIS PROBLEM.IS IT BECAUSE HEATSINK PROBLEM OR BIOS AND SENSOR PROBLEM ?IF IT IS NATURAL SO I TRY USE IT AS A WATER BOILER!!
2-THE CPU FAN SPEED ISNT STABLE.IT IS LOW AND SUDDENLY GOES UP AND THEN COME DOWN. WHAT IS PROBLEM?IS IT AMD CPU CONTROL ALGHORITM?
3-I SEARCHED MANYTIMES AND AT THE END I DIDNT FOUND A STRAIGHT TALK ABOUT HYBRID SLI AND HYBRID POWER. I HAD TWO CHOISE MSI-NF980 AND ASUS-M4N98 EVO . I DIDNT HAVE A CHANSE OF MISTAKE.AND FINALLY I CHOOSED MSI BOARD BECAUSE OF LAYOUT AND STRONG LOOKING FEATURES .BUT BOTH OF THEM HAVNT CORRECT INFORMATION ABOUT USING HYBRID SLI AND A BIG DIFFERENCE: ASUS HASNT ONBOARD VGA . ACCORDING TO NVIDIA WEBSITE THE GPU'S LIKE 9800GT AND GTS 260 ONLY CAN USE HYBRID POWER NOT GEFORCE BOOST.HYBRID SLI ONLY WORK WIH ONBOARD VGA OUTPUT.IT MEANS ASUS BOARD CANT USE HYBRID POWER .NOW I TEST TEMP AND SOUND AND STABALITY OF SYSTEM IN WIN XP AND I DONT HAVE WIN7 YET SO I CANT TEST HYBRID SLI( THIS IS WORK ONLY IN WIN VISTA AND WIN 7) . IS THERE ANY ONE ADVISE ME ABOUT A HYBRID SLI SETTING IN WIN 7?
4-I THINK OVERCLOCKING CENTER IS NOT POWERFULL THAT MUST BE. FOR EXAMPLE IT HASNT SETTING FOR THE WAY TO WARNING(MESSAGE ,AUDIO,..). IT CAN ONLY CONTROL 2 FAN THAT PLUGED TO MOBO ALSO THE MOBO HAS 3 FAN PORT.THE ONLINE HELP OF THAT IS MISSING.IT DOESNT ACT ACCORDING TO SETTING AND FOR EXAMPLE SCREAMS FOR A GOOD TEMP.I USED SPEEDFAN AND IT WAS VERY POWEFULL . IT COULD SHUTDOWN FANS COMPLETELY THAT OVERCLOCKING CENTER COULDN'T DO THAT.
I HOPE OTHER REVISIONS ARE MORE POWERFULL.
5- I WANT USE A HEAVY AFTERMARKET AIR COOLER( WITH WEIGHT ABOUT 800 gr) . IS THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES ALLOW TO DO THAT WITHOUT ANY DAMAGE?
THANKS FOR ANSWER

Give the guy a break. I read the damn thing and it wasn't that bad. He probably had to run it trough a translator program.
100c is a false reading according to a Sr. mod for this board. Ignore that temp sensor.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=133425.0
Turn off AMD cool n quiet if its bothering you, Get a monitored CPU fan and use the target temp feature that throttles your CPU fan when it is not under load. My system is silent at idle / web surfing and loud as an airplane when I am gaming. Not a bad trade off because I am overclocked quite a bit. I set the temp target to the lowest and then set the fan throttle to 50%. If your CPU fan is still variable when Idle check your CPU fan install, you may need that heavy cooler. I think that you will get a new metal cooler bracket with the new cooler, mine came with one. The board is very strong and should be able to handle the 400gr.
Hybrid SLI is a waste for you if you have a 9800GT. The Hybrid SLI will drop your performance DOWN to the 8300 on board video. Additionally the Hybrid power is overrated IMO. I totally disabled my onboard video and have 2 9800gtx's running in SLI. Win7/Vista gives you the benefit of using two monitors and using SLI at the same time as well as directX11. Other than that your not missing anything. Hybrid SLI is really meant for people that can only afford another 8300 GPU.
The power of the 9800GT is so much better it makes using the 8300 onboard useless as a physicsX proc also. Take my advise and forget about the onboard GPU unless you destroy your 9800s.
I agree, the MSI and the NVIDIA OC tools SUCK for this board. I blame NVIDIA however, its their chipset. The best thing to do is to just use the BIOS. Speedfan is a good tool for fan manipulation, but I have yet to find a good OC tool for windows. The BIOS profile storage is a good tool. Save your basic settings and then tweak and save those profiles, its a great help. I wouldn't expect a windows based OC tool to be released either. This board is kind of a white rhino. Like you said Asus has 1 MSI has 1. I do think it is a great MB though!
Good Luck!

Completely Lost Audio to PP Glitch. Tight Deadline. Urgent

Right in the middle of an edit the sound dropped out completely. Well no big deal, this happens sometimes in PP. I restarted the App but it was still the same. On all my sequences what's even more odd is that all the waveforms were gone but the original files were still being referenced and the audio would play fine in the source monitor just not the timeline. I then opened an autosave to find that the waveforms returned but still no audio on the timeline (no audio meters either). If I match framed a clip then performed an insert edit the sound for that clip would play again. Sounds like a fix. Wrong if I close the project and reopen then those files that are new on the timeline are muted also. Somehow every sequence is this way? Even in the autosaves?
TROUBLESHOOTING:
I've tried changing my audio hardware to 4 different sources.
Rebooted machine.
Imported the project into a completely fresh project with no results.
Exported an XML and imported into a fresh project SOL.
Reset PP preferences.
Updated from 7.1 to 7.2.1 - NOPE
And for the big finale. Did a full reinstall.
This worked!!! For a day. Until this morning. Now I'm right back where I started except I've done a lot more work. All sequences have no audio meters again.
One more test: I created a completely new project and imported just a sequence from the original project. That sequence came in and all the clips with it have audio stripped. No waveforms present. This is really bizarre. If I bring one of the original clips in from the finder and put it on the timeline there is audio until I save and reopen then that one clip does the exact same thing. If I open any other project besides this one the audio plays.
Can someone please give me insight into what's going on. BTW no tracks are muted manually this happened right in the middle of an edit and somehow effects all autosaved versions of this project. Any help is much appreciated since there is no way I can redo this in another edit package with the time I have left.

Hi Reuben,
Thanx for starting this thread and giving this major problem a serious consideration. And thanx to Kevin for coming up with a solution.
Last week we here in Copenhagen had exact same problem on two out of our three different editing rooms - all with different specs. (All running Premiere 7.2.1 on OS X 10.8.5 and 10.9.2 has the sound problem but OS X 10.7.5 hasn't) No updates has been done while working on the projects.
We also use Plural Eyes and solved it first with a lot of match framing, but it became worse and worse so we are very happy with the suggested workaround via AfterEffects.
It takes 5-10 minutes to do the workaround - But the audio keyframes is gone from the timeline.
The keyframes are intact under the volume Level bar in the effects control panel so that is fine.
But what is not so good, is that I lost all the audio effects like compressor and limiter, so I will have to make the soundmix again if the client has any changes.
My theory is that the whole project becomes twisted over time when more and more sequences is created and more and more renders are done. Don't no why. Just guessing that the number of renderfiles is causing the confussion.
Because my first sequence which I didn't touch for weeks now also lost the link to the audio files.
I tried to make all sound offline and reconnect - didn't help. I also tried to delete the Media Cache files - didn't help.
I doubt that Plural Eyes is the cause of problems, because the music files that I use is also missing waveforms now and hence also no sound there.
Luckily I exported a final sound mix but I have to import the final sound mix again each time the project has been closed and started again.
I now vaguely remembers that I tried to do some sound adjustments on one clip in Adobe Audition and the problems with missing sound began after that.
Hmm - not sure. How about you Reuben? Do you use Audition?
And I didn't quite understand - do you now use Plural Eyes in After Affects or do you make the import and export workaround with After Effects after you synced the audio in Premiere?
Does Adobe have any idea on when this bug is fixed? Are we talking weeks or months?
Kind Regards

CPU usage goes up when a certain AVI clip is added

I have a Core-Duo 3.2ghz with 2gb ram and XPpro. When I'm adding video clips (avi files) to my timeline, I noticed that at one point, PE8 became very sluggish. Checking the Task Manager, it always happened whenever I added a particular avi file (captured from my DV cam) to the timeline. The file is about 2gb in size and I've checked it with Gspot and it appears to be like all my other clips. When I drag it to the timeline, the first CPU (of the two) goes to about 98% and stays there even if I delete that clip from the timeline, until I close the project. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

You are correct that DV-AVI Type II is the better Capture format. The WMV files will be compressed, and though most can be Imported into PrE, the processing will put a greater strain on the computer.
When you Import the problem file, the one with the missing Waveform, do you get a little blue progress bar at the lower-right of the GUI? This would be the Conforming operation, which includes the generation of the PEK (Waveform Display) file. You can also check the Media Cache files to see if you have both a CFA (large file) and a PEK (much smaller file) for that Clip.
The Audio specs. that you list for that AV file are as they should be, 48KHz 16-bit PCM/WAV. It does not get any better than that. Do not know why that one file would be a problem - a real mystery. I cannot think of any explanation for why it would be problematic, or even something else to check.
Good luck,
Hunt

Logic 9 no longer recognising 3rd party plug ins

Without any change to OS or software versions, Logic 9 has decided not to recognise any of the 3rd party AU plug ins that have been working perfectly in all projects ... until today.
How do I fix this?
I'm using:
Logic Pro 9.1.1 (1697.53) in 32 bit mode
OS 10.6.4
Novation Automap Pro 3.5
On starting Logic, a notification window tells me
Logic Pro: Plug-in "Battery 3 ("Not available
Logic Pro: Plug-in "FM8 (Autom" ("Not available
Logic Pro: Plug-in "Kontakt 3 ("Not available
Logic Pro: Plug-in " Massive ("Au available
Logic Pro: Plug-in "Ozone 4 ("A Not available
Logic Pro: Plug-in "Predator ("A Not available
Logic Pro: Plug-in "Predator (" Not available
Logic Pro: Plug-in "Sylenth1 ("A Not available
Logic Pro: Plug-in "Sylenth 1 ("Not available
If you have a definitive answer, I'd love to hear it.
Cheers.

I think logic is missing your Auto-mapped synths all of a sudden.
It happened to me with Predator just now.
After Automap was updated to 3.5 I got the same message.
Rescan with the Automap Plugin manager without Logic running and see if the plugins are available.
Tick the boxes of all the synths Logic expects to see auto-mapped, press OK, close Automap Server and restart logic.
Now Logic and Automap Server are started in order.
If the plugins are not available you can also try to move the AU components that are mentioned to another location on the drive.
Start logic, on your Channel Strip the names of the synths will be crossed out because you moved them.
Close Logic and Automap Server, move the AU components back to their original location and restart logic.
If I am correct they should be rescanned.
After this, scan with the Automap Plugin manager.
Check the boxes and tick the boxes of the plugins Logic expects to see Auto-mapped and restart logic again.
It is a lot of restarting I know, but the goal is to flip that bit in the software that is giving all this hassle.
I hope this works for you, It worked for me on logic 8.

Itunes only loads parts of songs.

When i load cds onto itunes it only loads parts of the songs, and for some it says 'not available'.
For example dani california, which is 4:42 long, only comes up as 1:19, and snow, the song after is 'not available'.
The cd's work in my cd player 100% fine, and all the tracks are there, just not complete.....
Any fixes?

It seems that I have the same problem.
While am working on the Mac, I often listen music on iTunes 8.0.2 (iMac G4 OS X 10.4.11) with Shuffle On, Repeat Off, I notice some pieces doesn't play completely and change before the end.
Opening the music file with Sound Studio, I saw that a part is missing (Waveform is flat). Sometime only few second at the end, but sometime only few second left at the beginning !
What could have gone wrong ? How to fix this ?
Thanks for any help you can give,
(I looked on my BackUp Disk to restore the full missing number. Unfortunately, it seems that SuperDuper "Sand Box" has already BackUp and replace the right full numbers with the defect one !)

Missing audio waveforms in GarageBand 10.0.1

My GarageBand 10.0.1 does not create audio waveforms when I record. I can record and play back my voice, but I don't see any audio waveforms when I record or playback. I must be missing some really elemental step, but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is. I am trying to record my voice to create a podcast. I know the podcast template is no longer available, but I should be able to use "empty project" for this, correct?

there are lots of changes in v10. if you want the same effects you had in v6, keep using it, installing v10 doesn't delete v6

Missing plugin "GB Synth"

I installed Garageband for iPad and discovered it creates a very cool Theremin-like sound with the "Fifties SciFi" keyboard. I exported a sample song with a Fifties SciFi track into iTunes and then into Garageband 11, which I saved. The track sounds pretty close in Garageband 11 to how it sounds on the iPad. However, when I open the saved Garageband 11 file in Logic Express, I get an error message about a missing GB Synth plugin -- which I guess is what creates the Theremin sound. Is there a way to get that plugin and/or get Logic Express to make use of it?

Never mind. Problem solved by Logic Express update.

Audio Waveform Missing (or partial) in Timeline

Here's an odd problem.
For one of the projects I'm working on the waveform for the audio tracks is missing. When I hit CommandOptionw to turn it on and off, when on there are only the x's you see as it's being built.
On one of the tracks, not both even though they are in stereo, there is a piece of the waveform.
I trashed all the waveform caches I can find (although I may have missed some, they set things up haphazardly) the waveform is never built.
Any ideas? Thanks!

I would hazard a quess that you've pushed fcp system resources to the max. I've been working on syncing up some badly time-coded multicam shoots, using the waveforms to sync them up. On one pair of clips, 1.5 hours each, it took quite a while to draw the waveforms and then fcp was VERY sluggish until I turned them off. That's with 6 gigs of ram on a pretty speedy machine.

Why doe Resample waveforms (continous).vi have missing data

I am using the Resample Waveforms (continous).vi to resample waveforms at a slower rate than the acquisition is taking place. I am doing this because I am using an NI-9237, which has a minimum sampling rate of 1612.9 Hz. I am acquiring from up to 12 channels of AI and resampling the array of waveforms. When I save the output of the resampling VI to a file, some of the channels have missing data for a given timepoint and sometmes the timepoint will be off. I have removed the Reasmple VI and I do not see this problem.
I have attached a screenshot of my VI and of the saved data file (time is leftmost column, one column for each channel).

Amit,
I ran some more tests. I should have mentioned I was using a simulated device (as I do not have the actual hardware yet) to troubleshoot my application. I happen to have another peice of "real" hardware that I tried and I cannot seem to duplicae the issue with it. I need to wait for my actual cDAQ to arrive before I can be sure, but this seems to be the problem. It still doesn't make sense to me since using the simulated device without the Resmaple VI produces accurate "simulated timepoints. It's when I introduce the Resample that I have problems.
Thanks

Missing file compute waveform.vi

i wrote a program a while ago in labview 8.5.1.I have installed 8.6 since. Now when i try and run this same labview program, there is a block "compute waveform.vi" missing in my program.(it has a questioni mark where this block should be). I cannot find how to insert this missing block and now i cant run this program. any help?

Hi Gillyme,
I believe that compute waveform.vi is a Traditional DAQ VI. If you wish to continue using it you will need to reinstall the Traditional DAQ driver, the latest version of which can be found online here.
Alternatively, if your device is supported by DAQmx, then this article may help you convert your code to the newer driver (which can be found here)
I hope this helps.

Audio MIDI missing synth profiles

I used to have a list of synths already in my computer for use in adding new devices in Audio Midi. I recently reformatted and reinstalled 10.3, and now they are gone. Is this normal? Do the profiles not come with the operating system? Thanks.

Not here. I strongly suspect that you, or someone else, deleted the program.

Audio Waveforms missing?

I clicked on "View Audio Waveforms" under "View" as I'm editing my movie.
I assumed that the waveforms would appear in the audio tracks. But as I started the clip, nothing at all appeared.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

Showing audio waveforms
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iMovie/6.0/en/imv1133.html
Note: Waveforms are faint when you're showing clip volume levels. To hide clip volume levels, deselect Show Clip Volume Levels in the View menu. (A selected item has a checkmark next to it; choose the item again to deselect it.)
To see more detail in the waveform, it's a good idea to zoom in on the timeline viewer.
