Musical typing with your own audio files

Ok so I want to know if it is possible in Garageband to assign the musical typing to your own sounds? For example, I imported a kick and a snare and I want to trigger both the kick and the snare over a sample to make a complete beat.

  • Is it possible to add childrens read along feature with your own audio to iBooks author book?

    I am working on an interactive kids book on iBooks author and it be ace if anyone here knew how to add read along capability like you see on enhanced ebooks. Is it a serious coding job or can an imaginative drag and dropper like me achieve it?

  • Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)

    Fresh installation of Exchange Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012.
    Our first test account cannot access their email via Outlook but can access fine through OWA. The following message appears - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize
    your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)" is displayed.
    If I turn off cached Exchange mode, setting the email account to not
    cache does not resolve the issue and i get a new error message - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. The file (path\profile name).ost is not an Outlook data file (.ost). Very odd since it creates its own .ost file when you run it for the first
    time.
    I cleared the appdata local Outlook folder and I tested on a new laptop that has never connected to Outlook, same error message on any system.
    Microsoft Exchange RPC Client Access service is running.
    No warning, error or critical messages in the eventlog, it's like the healthiest server alive.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. I haven't encountered this issue with previous versions of Exchange.

    So it looks like a lot of people are having this issue and seeing how Exchange 2013 is still new (relatively to the world) there isn't much data around to answer this. I've spend ALOT of time trying to figure this out.
    Here is the answer. :) - No I don't know all but I'm going to try to give you the most reasonable answer to this issue, in a most logical way.
    First thing I did when I was troubleshooting this issue is that I ignored Martina Miskovic's suggestion for Step4 http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj218640(EXCHG.150)because it didn't make sense to me because I was trying to connect
    Outlook not outside the LAN but actually inside. However, Martina's suggestion does fix the issue if it's applied in the correct context.
    This is where the plot thickens (it's stew). She failed to mention that things like SSL (which I configure practically useless - anyone who ever worked in a business environment where the owner pretty much trusts anyone in the company, otherwise they don't
    work there - very good business practice in my eyes btw, can confirm that...) are some sort of fetish with Microsoft lately. Exchange 2013 was no exception.
    In exchange 2003, exchange 2007 and exchange 2010 - you could install it and then go to outlook and set it up. And when outlook manual Microsoft Exchange profile would ask you for server name, you would give it and give the name of the person who you setting
    up - as long as machine is on the domain, not much more is needed. IT JUST WORKS! :) What a concept, if the person already on premises of the business - GIVE HIM ACCESS. I guess that was too logical for Microsoft. Now if you're off premises you can use things
    like OutlookAnywhere - which I might add had their place under that scenario.
    In Exchange 2013, the world changed. Ofcourse Microsoft doesn't feel like telling it in a plain english to people - I'm sure there is an article somewhere but I didn't find it. Exchange 2013 does not support direct configuration of Outlook like all of it's
    previous versions. Did you jaw drop? Mine did when I realized it. So now when you are asked for your server name in manual outlook set up and you give it Exchange2013.yourdomain.local - it says cannot connect to it. This happens because ALL - INTERNAL AND
    EXTERNAL connection are now handled via OutlookAnywhere. You can't even disable that feature and have it function the reasonable way.
    So now the question still remains - how do you configure outlook. Well under server properties there is this nice section called Outlook anywhere. You have a chance to configure it's External and Internal address. This is another thing that should be logical
    but it didn't work that way for me. When I configured the external address different from the internal - it didn't work. So I strongly suggest you get it working with the same internal address first and then ponder how you want to make it work for the outside
    users.
    Now that you have this set up you have to go to virtual directories and configure the external and internal address there - this is actually what the Step 4 that Martina was refering to has you do.
    Both external and internal address are now the same and you think you can configure your outlook manually - think again. One of the most lovely features of Outlook Anywhere, and the reason why I had never used it in the past is that it requires a TRUSTED
    certificate.
    See so it's not that exchange 2013 requires a trusted certificate - it's that exchange 2013 lacks the feature that was there since Windows 2000 and Exchange 5.5.
    So it's time for you to install an Active Direction Certificate Authority. Refer to this wonderful article for exact steps - http://careexchange.in/how-to-install-certificate-authority-on-windows-server-2012/
    Now even after you do that - it won't work because you have to add the base private key certificate, which you can download now from your internal certsrv site, to Default Domain Policy (AND yes some people claim NEVER mess with the Default Domain Policy,
    always make an addition one... it's up to you - I don't see direct harm if you know what you want to accomplish) see this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738131%28v=ws.10%29.aspx if you want to know exact steps.
    This is the moment of ZEN! :) Do you feel the excitement? After all it is your first time. Before we get too excited lets first request and then install the certificate to actual Exchange via the gui and assign it to all the services you can (IIS, SMTP and
    there is a 3rd - I forgot, but you get the idea).
    Now go to your client machine where you have the outlook open, browse to your exchange server via https://exchang2013/ in IE and if you don't get any certificate errors - it's good. If you do run on hte client and the server: gpupdate /force This will refresh
    the policy. Don't try to manually install the certificate from Exchange's website on the client. If you wanna do something manually to it to the base certificate from the private key but if you added it to the domain policy you shouldn't have to do it.
    Basically the idea is to make sure you have CA and that CA allows you to browse to exchange and you get no cert error and you can look at the cert and see that's from a domain CA.
    NOW, you can configure your outlook. EASY grasshoppa - not the manual way. WHY? Cause the automatic way will now work. :) Let it discover that exachange and populate it all - and tell you I'm happy! :)
    Open Outlook - BOOM! It works... Was it as good for you as it was for me?
    You may ask, why can't I just configure it by manual - you CAN. It's just a nightmare. Go ahead and open the settings of the account that got auto configed... How do you like that server name? It should read something like [email protected]
    and if you go to advanced and then connection tab - you'll see Outlook Anywhere is checked as well. Look at the settings - there is the name of the server, FQDN I might add. It's there in 2 places and one has that Mtdd-something:Exchange2013.yourdomain.local.
    So what is that GUID in the server name and where does it come from. It's the identity of the user's mailbox so for every user that setting will be different but you can figure it out via the console on the Exchange server itself - if you wish.
    Also a note, if your SSL certs have any trouble - it will just act like outlook can't connect to the exchange server even though it just declines the connection cause the cert/cert authority is not trusted.
    So in short Outlook Anywhere is EVERYWHERE! And it has barely any gui or config and you just supposed to magically know that kind of generic error messages mean what... Server names are now GUIDs of the [email protected] - THAT MAKES PERFECT
    SENSE MICROSOFT! ...and you have to manage certs... and the only place where you gonna find the name of the server is inside the d*** Outlook Anywhere settings in the config tab, un it's own config button - CAN WE PUT THE CONFIG ANY FURTHER!
    Frustrating beyond reason - that should be Exchange's new slogan...
    Hope this will help people in the future and won't get delete because it's bad PR for Microsoft.
    PS
    ALSO if you want to pick a fight with me about how SSL is more secure... I don't wanna hear it - go somewhere else...

  • How can I create a file in iMovie with a lengthy audio file, but only 1 picture?

    Let me state first off that I'm a blind user using the Voiceover screen-reader in OS X.
    Now, I want to upload some audio to Youtube, but they do not allow simple MP3 files. As such, I want to create a file in iMovie with my audio and 1 picture to use as a visual. Within iMovie, I add my audio file, select a picture, but when I publish, the audio is cut off after only a few seconds. Can someone please explain how I can fix this issue so my entire audio clip will play?

    iMovie is a visual medium, so you need to make the duration of your photo at least as long as your voiceover track. You should be able to double click on your photo and then enter a duration.
    See iMovie Help at this link.
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3a883915
    An MP3 file may work for you, but for best results, use a WAV or AIFF file (uncompressed). You can convert MP3 to AIFF in iTunes. Let me know if you need instructions.

  • How do I revert to replaced audio files being saved with the project file, *not* with the original audio files?

    In the latest release, when you send an audio clip to Audition, the newly created audio clip - which was previously saved in the same folder as the project file - is saved next to the original audio file.
    Makes sense, but for reasons to boring to go into, it's a major headache for my workflow, because it means combing through folders to find the files, instead of having them all in once place.
    So how to I turn this off and revert to those files being saved next to the project file?

  • Failing to import my own audio files (not copy protected files)

    I'm having trouble getting external audio files to import properly into GarageBand, most specifically MP3 files. These aren't copy protected audio files, these are files I've created myself in other programs and unprotected MP3 sound effects clips downloaded from various web sites.
    Here's what happens, I open GB and create a new project. I find the audio file that I want to start with, an MP3 file that plays just fine in QuickTime and iTunes. I drag the audio file into GB to create a new track. GB begins a conversion/import process or whatever it does to be able to edit an MP3 file. I see the progress bar filling up as it does this. When it is complete a new track is created with the MP3 file's name, however the track itself is empty. I don't see any content and there is no audio when I hit play. I don't get any sort of error message either.
    I've tried playing with the MP3 file settings, changing them to mono, adjusting bit rates, compression, etc. but every time I try to import into GB this same process happens with no results. These audio files I'm creating play in all my other audio playing apps, so I'm confused as to what could be wrong.
    Can someone tell me how I can get GB to import these files properly? Thanks in advance!

  • OMF and AAF exports -limited functionality now with 'raw' DSLR audio files.

    I'm an post production sound mixer...and a film maker and thus I see PP CS5 from 2 sides. I'm using CS5 with a PC.
    The industry uses OMF or AAF to export from a video workstation to an audio one. However PP CS5's OMF and AAF are both flawed.
    I often had trouble exporting OMF's (from CS4) which failed without any reason popping up from the software. I usually believed this to be because of the OMF's restriction to 2Gb so I exported single tracks when I believe the source files are large...even when specifing say only 50 frame handles.
    AAF more often worked with large files but the exports become large of course (that's OK) and all video material had to be deleted in the sequence before doing an AAF export.
    I am now using CS5 and dropping my Canon 5D2 'H264' and Panasonic GH-1 'mts' files directly on the timeline instead of converting them to avi's with Neoscene. Great ...but alas all OMF's or AAF exports now fail....they will only work if I get my audio back to being wav files again, which isn't really viable once editing has occurred.
    I know that OMF is fraught...Avid never made it easy but AAF is a more up to date exchange protocol. Could I request that this is investigated and an intermediate  transcode to something like wav or AIFF be undertaken by Media Encoder when an AAF export is used? I assume that the encoder doesn't yet know how to process audio .movs or mts files into the required export audio file and just kills the process.
    David Taylor  Postfade Sound  Pinewood Studios UK

    Stan,
    Thanks for the suggestion...I submitted a Bug Report.
    I used both OMF and AAF to export from PP CS4 to my professional Fairlght DAW, which was happy with either, as long as the export was succesful. As I said there were occasional problems with OMF even though I selected small 'audio handles' for the 'embedded' OMF exports. My source audiofiles are often pretty big. AAF worked with these big source files however.
    However I always used Neoscene to transcode my DSLR files before importing the Neoscene converted .AVI's into CS4, the audio was part of the new .AVI's and was probably now a .WAV.
    Now with CS5 I can drop the Canon 5D2's 'H264. mov's' or the Panasonic GH-1's '.mts' video files directly into PP-which plays them beautifully.
    My trouble now starts when I try and export the edited audio to my DAW. I can only get it to work with source files that are .WAV.
    I don't think other professional users, like all those new PP CS5 machines at the BBC, will be happy with the compromised OMF/AAF exports either as so many of us are using DSLR's now.

  • How to export multiple regions with fades to audio files

    When I have a bunch of regions that I want to export to audio files Logic manages to ignore the fades I created on them. Is there any other way than bouncing every single region? Basicly I just want to consolidate (like PT) the regions fom the project including the fades.

  • Is it possible to import your own wave files into the EXS-24?

    I have been wondering if it is possible to create your own samples and import them into the EXS-24.
    I just created some short wave files of a voice and want to recall them whenever I need them. Is that possible? And if yes? How exactly?
    Thanks!

    Sure, open an empty patch in EXS, hit the edit button and drag the wavs from your finder into the sample zone, a menue will show up asking you what samples to map to which keys. Read the manual about the EXS, it sure helps...

  • File Error: Wrong Type with MPEG-4 Audio File

  • Recording with just one audio file per track

    Is there a way, when recording, to just have one continuous track? When recording a 2nd take on the same track (say track 1), instead of having another separate audio file for the 2nd take, I would like to have just one complete audio file instead of bunches of them. I've looked in Preferences and the menu options and have overlooked it if it's there. I hope I am being clear. Thanks.

    Hey Terry,
    I'm not sure why this is a problem - if you think about it its just like recording multiple takes on tape - you then comp the best bits to create the final 'take'.
    Also as AA streams direct to disk at some point (ie when you stop recording) AA has to close the file otherwise it would get corrupted.
    I guess it just gets a little getting used to?
    If I'm gonna do a complete 2nd (3rd, 4th etc) take then I might drag the previous take down on to a muted track (if I think I might use bits out of it) and then re-take - or just delete the previous take and re-record.
    At the end I then select File->Delete Unused Media (I think thats what its called). When all takes and mixing is completed I use this application to identify all the unused files that are not needed and that can be safely deleted - http://www.mediasweeper.com.au

  • Better Integration with Audition for Audio Files

    Although Bridge is supplied and installed with Audition 2 the implementation is flawed and doesn't reflect what could be done with audio meta data. Audition allows one to view and edit meta data in File Properties but these fields aren't fully reflected in Bridge. Also audio fields accessible in Bridge don't appear in the Wave properties in Audition. Sort it out please Adobe. It could be very useful for users like myself working in audio archives.

  • Can not create printer with my own ppd file

    I have a printer model that is not covered in Solaris Print Manager.
    I downloaded a foomatic-PPD file. Followed the steps (from Solaris 10 administration guide) to add printer. (lpfilter -f $ name -F $ filter didn't succeed, so I manually did lpfilter -f foomatic -F foomatic.fd)
    After printer is added, and it's idle, I tried to print a job, but it says:
    UX:lp: ERROR: The LP print service could not read your request file
    To fix: see if the spooling file system is full.
    I have also tried to add a new entry in /usr/lib/lp/model/ppd/ppdcache and the new entry points to my ppd file.
    Add printer through Soloaris print manager, I got the exact same message.
    Any tips?

    I haven't played with this myself, but from looking at the documentation and what you have done:
    1. is this a locally attached printer (serial port , usb, etc.) or a network printer? You are using standard_foomatic that is for locally attached printers, but your description seems to indicate that the printer is on the network. If it's a network printer, then the netstandard_foomatic script should be used.
    2. Is the content type of postscript appropriate for this printer? The docs use that but that may not be correct. Is the Optra E312 a postscript printer?
    3. althought the built-in ppd files are in the .gz format (and unzipped as needed), the docs indicate that the "home brewed" ppds should be just plain .ppd.
    Not sure if any of this is relevant, but that's my 2 cents.

  • SOLVED! How to Read Your Own epub files on PlayBook (sort of)

    Hi boys, girls and epub lovers.
    I've finally discovered a rather straight-forward way to read epub files on your beloved PlayBook. Follow the steps below for reading joy:
    1 - Visit http://bookworm.oreilly.com and follow the 'Sign Up' link. Create an account
    2 - Sign in to the site and click on the big 'ADD A BOOK' link on the left hand side.
    3 - Upload one of your favourite epub books to the site.
    4 - On your PlayBook (if you're not already using it), visit http://m.bookworm.oreilly.com and sign in.
    5 - You should see your book listed. Click on it to open and start reading!
    Some nice things about it:
    1 - The site remembers the last page that you were reading the next time you sign in
    2 - If you read your book in portrait mode on the PlayBook, I discovered that just tapping the screen once will make the page scroll down
    3 - Typeface and size can be adjusted at the top of the screen.
    4 - You can literraly jump between any device with a web browser and continue to read your book
    Some problems with this method:
    1 - You need internet access
    2 - Chapter loading takes a moment because the book is stored online
    3 - Resizing of text is limited.
    If you can get over these minor problems, then it's fine. You can easily read on the move with the Bridge Browser and I've just read a couple of chapters of a book and it was a joy to read.
    Thanks O'Reilly!
