MPC files to wave files?

Is there a way to use Logic to turn my MPC 60 and MPC 3000 sound files into wave files? I know if they are wave files I can import them into the ESX but MPC files are snd files. If not Logic is ther another program that can do this?
Thanks

Logic knows nothing about propriety format MPC files. You'll need to use some kind of sample conversion utility, or maybe Akai do some support utilities for this..?

    For a file to be a wave file it needs a specific header format and data structure as defined by microsoft. The following is a very good resource describing the WAV file format: http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/CCRMA/Courses/422:1998/projects/WaveFormat/
    Read this document carefully and it will tell you everything you need to know about formating your anolog input into a WAV file.

  • How can I convert and replace SDII files to WAV files in a song?

    I have to convert some audiofiles in a song from 16 to 24 bit and from SDII to WAV. I choose the option "Copy/convert files" in the audio window and everything is converted well.
    In my audio window I have now 16 and 24 bit files and WAV and SDII files.
    But how can I replace those new files in my song?
    On logic 6.4.3 I could after "Copy/convert files" choose the option "Change file reference(s) in the song to the audiofile(s) that have been copied", but in my new Logic 7.1.1 I don't have that possibility anymore.
    What am I'm doing wrong? I'm copying my new audio in new folders.

  • Payload type of wav files encoded with gms codec

    Hello everybody,
    I have an application which receives and plays alaw formated wav files using JMF(with the help of some additional libraries) . I want to use lower bandwidth for my application. A quick google search indicated that i can do this by using gsm format.
    I have 2 questions:
    1-) what are the differences between .gsm files and .wav files which are encoded with gsm codecs? Which one's quality is better? which one's compression ratio is better?
    2-) which payload type should i use for wav files which are encoded with gsm codecs?
    In [Rtp Payload list|http://www.iana.org/assignments/rtp-parameters] page, there is a gsm entry whose payload is 3. I suppose that is for files with gsm extension. I tried it but it didn't work with my wav sample (as u can guess it was encoded with gsm 6.10 codec)
    Any suggestion is appreciated. If you have a comment about the main problem (which is using lower bandwidth for sending audio data) i would also like to hear it
    Thanks in advance
    btw i also tried this [gsm sample|http://www.nch.com.au/acm/sample.gsm] with payload 3.At first it worked but then strangely it played just static. In Sun's page it says gsm format is supported. I played both ulaw and alaw succesfully so i wonder what i am doing wrong. Do we need to tell the player that it is going to receive data in gsm format? I didnt do such a thing for u-law and a-law formats...

    On the sender side, make your processor take in whatever kind of supported file you want. Set the processor to output your GSM mono, and then you can just use a Player to play it on the other side. It's really not very different than the examples...
    [http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/AVTransmit.html]
    When you're programming the tracks, and you're calling "setFormat" on them, just set their format to be gsm.

  • How to convert .caf files to WAV, MP3, WMA etc

    I use QuickVoice free app on my ipad2 to record memos. I’ve just found out how to convert the files and play them on my Windows computer. First I used this program call QuickVoice Sync to copy my recording on my computer, used this link:
    www.nFinityInc.com/QuickVoiceSyncWin.exe   - for Windows
    www.nFinityInc.com/QuickVoiceSyncMac.zip   - for Mac users
    to download QuickVoice Sync onto your computer. Open the program up and it firsts asks you to backup your files, which I did through iTunes and iCloud just incase. Then I clicked import, the program then searched for my recording and copy them into a new folder in my documents called QuickVoice. My recording in the folder were .caf files which I couldn't open in Windows so I used a program called Audacity. Use this link to download:
    http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/
    I downloaded the program and opened up one of my .caf files my clicking 'file', then 'open' in Audacity. When the files was opened I clicked 'file' again then clicked 'export' to convert my .caf file to WAV file for example. You can change the type of file my scrolling through the different types of files available by clicking the box next to 'save as type', I chose 'WAV (Microsoft) 16bit PCM' then click save. You can also change where you save the file by clicking another location before you click 'save'.
    I can now play these files in Windows Media Player on my computer or playing them in my QuickVoice app on my ipad2.
    Hope this helps, if there are any questions please ask and I will try to answer the best I can. I figured this out myself and I’m not a big pro in computers so I will do my best to answer any quires.

    Try "Easy CAF Converter for Logic Pro" on the Mac App Store.
    According to an app description,
    "The Easy CAF Converter for Logic Pro automatically converts Apple Loops installed with Logic Pro 9 and X to uncompressed audio formats (aiff and wave).
    With the Easy CAF Converter for Logic Pro, musicians using other major DAWs (e.g., Cubase, ProTools, Ableton Live, and Studio One, etc.) can now easily use the rich set of apple loops of Logic Pro in their music productions."

  • How do you convert mov to wav files?

    How do you convert .mov files to .wav files in iMovie 10? I can no longer find the Share/Quicktime/Options tabs.

    * the .mov container can be handled by any PC with a free download of Quicktime for Windows; but many PC users hesitate doing so, because on the Apple website it looks like you instali iTunes too... many PC don't like that...
    * .mp4 can be handled by any actual PC mediaplayer... again: PC users are used to import .wmv (or the very old .avi container/not supported by YouTube)
    * for exporting .wmv on a Mac, you need to buy a licence at www.flip4mac.com
    * mpeg... the MotionPictureExpertGroup published many codecs... mpeg1, mpeg2, mpeg4, h261, h264. .... but using iM as exporter, all these mpegs will be "hidden" in the QT container .mov... with QTpro you can strip-off the container, but I recommed the beginner to use one of the above mentioned options......

  • Dose WAV files really reduces the playback ti

    zen micro just has 2 mins of anti-shock time, and depends on the bitrate of music...
    It's so bad that no player support the APE files(perfect sound quality and half the size)

    Zericho: There's no such thing as "anti-shock" time on a hard disk based MP3 player. See here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net.
    WAV files will run the hard disk almost constantly, so dramatically reduce the battery time. From tests I remember on the NJB3, it was approximately 20-30% that of a 28 kbit/s MP3 file.
    WAV files also have other problems in that they have no tagging system, although using MediaSource you can associate tags with them for transfer.
    WMA lossless support has been on the wishlist for a while.
    FLAC is a more common lossless format supported by the Rio Karma, and perhaps other players. I think the iPod has a lossless format also. I've still heard some people say that both a lossless file and a "decompressed" lossless file sound different from the original. Of course there's others that say you can't hear the difference between a 320kbit/s LAME encoded MP3 and the original file...

  • Cannot import wav files

    I'm relatively new to working with captivate and am trying to
    import a .wav file into a slide. According to a book on Captivate
    from Icon logic - it says that captivate supports mp3 files and wav
    files. It also says that that when imported, WAV files are
    converted to mp3 format. When I try to import a wav file I get a
    message that says "unable to decode and import the selected sav/mp3
    file". Does anyone know how to address this? thanks!

    Hi Sue
    The answer to that is a definite "it depends". Here's the
    deal. Captivate does import WAV format. But it only understands WAV
    format that has been what is called "PCM Encoded". There are
    different encoding types for audio files.
    You may find that you never encounter this again. Or, you may
    find that nearly every file you choose to import has to be
    converted. It all depends on the original encoding of the file.
    I realize this answer is a bit on the vague side. Apologies
    for that. Unfortunately there is no definite one size fits all
    answer here.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How do I change the key of a wav file?

    I'm using Apple Loops Utility and the wav file plays the correct key & tempo there. But when I save it, and open it up in LE or add it into the arrangement, it's playing the original key? The only thing that is correct is the tempo. Can you change the key and save the change using Apple Loops Utility?

    I'm confused. Are you saying that in Apple Loops Utility the wav plays in the key and tempo of that wave, but when you add the same wav to LE it plays in a different key? You said in LE it plays in the "original" key. Seems like that is what you would expect. I would think it would play in the "original" key in both ALU and LE.

  • Placing 24/192 WAV files on iTunes for playback through Wadia 170 iTranspor

    I record live music on a Sound Devices 722 digital audio recorder at 24/192 as WAV files. I can import the 24/192 WAV file into iTunes on a Mac and the bit rate is displayed as 9216 kps. This makes sense since 24x192=9216. When I click on the song in iTunes it plays back at the correct tempo.
    I bought a Wadia 170 iTransport since it says it will output bit perfect digital files. I'd love to hear my recordings this way over my sound system. I understand that this would chew up drive space real fast on an iPod. However . . .
    I can't get my iPod to accept the 9216 kps song files. I went to set iTunes / Preferences / Advanced / Importing to WAV but the options for sample rate only go up to 48.0 kps and the bit rate up to 16-bit.
    Any thoughts or suggestions on how to overcome this will be appreciated.

    Hi,
    I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
    The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
    Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
    Anyway, thank you,

  • Broadcast Wav files from PT to Logic not moving to original record position

    Okay, my system needs upgrading but I'm stable (at least I think I am til now!) I have a TV network sending me broadcast wav files from PT. They shoot their video on a 24 hour clock. I'm to be editing and mixing (in Logic) their audio tracks from PT and send them back as broadcast wav files for them to sync back to their video. After years and years of recording and producing music, this TV world is a first for me. 2 issues at hand that are causing trouble.
    NUMBER 1: The wav files will not snap to original record position. I keep getting an error message about "out of range" and of all craziness with a negative SMPTE number. ??? The prompt suggests an offset error. But there isn't I can find. Start time is set to 0:0:0.0.0 here and at the TV studio. They film at 29.97d. That matches as well. Sample Rate is correct at 48k 24bit. I've uncovered every thing I can think of. I did have to set the tempo down to 5 BPM in order to see a full 24 hours in SMPTE.
    NUMBER 2: I can't figure out how to see the timestamp start time of the audio files in the audio window. I have every option turned on in the VIEW option, I can see length, but I see nothing about start time of original record time. Am I missing something simple here? Seems like a very standard option that should be easily accessible. It would allow me to prepare the location on the time line.
    Overall, I'm hoping I can do all the above with my current rig but realize that the clock is ticking toward a whole new system with Logic 9.
    Help please. Don't want to lose this client.

    Sure do appreciate everyone's willingness to help. Setting SMPTE start to 24:00:00.0.0 didn't work either. I confirmed with the studio manager at the TV station also that they run a 24hour clock with 0 being midnight.
    I'm really hoping that the error is on their end.
    *It would help me if anyone knew how to VIEW the Timestamp info attached to the wav files. That would at least give me an approximate idea of where they should be.*
    I'm supposed to be editing and mixing the voice dialog from numerous different scene takes that were shot throughout a day of filming. It's critical that I can see all these different takes that were captured over hours of open recording. Some of the files are almost 4 hours long. It's a big project and I'm sure hoping I can stay inside Logic to get it all done with excellence.

  • Wav files on external drive will not work in Apple Loops

    When I import wav files (from Nu Jazz Funk library) by dropping on the AL browser from an external drive, Apple Loops insists on copying them to my system drive (no option to make use current location). If I manually make an alias, the files show up, but play at the wrong tempo. I even tried letting AL make the copy, then moving that to an external drive & making an alias of that. No go. BTW, aif files work fine.

    Yeah, that's because Apple Loops are .AIF files, not .WAV.

  • Tempo problems with imported wav files

    Hey everyone, sorry if there's a quick fix for this in the forums that I couldn't find, but I've been having some tempo problems with imported .wav files.
    Long story short, my system couldn't handle playing all the tracks for a song while recording drums, so I bounced out an mp3 of the song and put it in a new Logic file so my drummer could just play along to that as I recorded him. Unfortunately, the original song is at 167 bpm, but I forgot to change the bpm in the new Logic file with the .mp3 file of the song to 167 bpm, so it was left at the default 120 bpm.
    So, the drums were recorded at the correct 167 bpm, but Logic thinks that those new drum .wav files should be played at 120 bpm, so when I import my drum tracks back into the original file, they do not play correctly at all.
    I could get record it all again, but I wanted to check if there was a way I could salvage what I already have, since my drummer lives about an hour away right now and can't just come over whenever he wants.
    Thanks for the help! I really appreciate it.

    Hi,
    First, do not use MP3 in Logic, the sound quality is less than AIFF, WAV or CAF, and Logic has to decode it for playback, making it a heavier burden on the CPU than an uncoded audiofile, such as AIFF, WAV or CAF.
    Secondly, audio files are independent of Logic's tempo. If you bounce down an audio file in any format (other than Apple Loop), it will play back at the same speed, +regardless of Logics' tempo setting+, either at recording or playback. Logic doesn't 'think' anything. The BPM is only important to MIDI tracks, or to the spacing between audio files. The audio files themselves *are not affected* by the tempo setting. If you import an audio file of tempo 167 into a 120 BPM project, the file will still play at 167, only Logic will indicate the wrong bar positions.
    regards, Erik.

  • Wav file from remix stem pack has no volume - Logic Pro 9

    I recently downloaded a remix stem pack and can't get the vocal wav file to play. It show's a wave form, but no volume. If I load a sample wav file, a drum hit for example, it will play no problem. Anyone have any idea's? It's not the wav file as it plays in itunes, and also plays in my friends logic pro.
    Thanks

    The hierarchy is [LOGIC FILE NAME]>LgDoc>(files ... Displaystate, DocumentData, Windowimage.jpg)
    Like this:
    You need to recreate the folder structure in order to be able to open the file.  (look at the path bar at the bottom of the picture.)
    Do not disassociate the displaystate from the documentData files.  They should be together.  The windowimage file is optional and will be recreated when the file is saved again.
    Hope this helps!
