Need to merge multiple tracks down to avoid choppy playback.

I have Adobe Premier Elements 9. I'm creating a music video from several takes recorded over a couple of hours, and have started lining the different tracks one on top of the other. I find that by the third track, even with a 6 core processor and 8 GB of memory, that the playback is so choppy as to be unworkable. I know I can Render the Timeline to get a smooth flow again, but as soon as I change one little piece it again becomes insanely choppy. I thought I saw a way to merge the tracks down, but now I can't find how to do that, and I'm not even sure that that's the best solution to the problem. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the follow up. First let us see if we can find Premiere Elements 11.
1. Have you gone to Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall A Program and looked through the list of installed programs, searching for Premiere Elements 11 which should have a file size of about 1.23 GB. If it is not there, it is not installed.
2. If you do see it in the Control Panel area just described, then close out of there and head for
Local Disk C
Program Files, not Program Files (x86)...assuming a Windows 7 or 8 64 bit computer
Adobe
Premiere Elements 11 (is it there?)
If it is, then look for the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe file and create a desktop shortcut for it. DO NOT SELECT Adobe Premiere Elements 11.exe.
If not, when you were installing it, did you ask for a different save location for it other the Adobe default? If not, as it progressed in the installation, did you watch it progress from beginning to end. Was there ever any evidence that somewhere along the line the install stopped and rolled back?
When you installed the download, did you disable the firewalls and antivirus?
Depending on how things go,
a. make sure there are no signs of Premiere Elements 11 installed. Put the Premiere Elements 11 installation files in a safe place.
b. use ccleaner on your computer, both regular and registry type
http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner
c. When you feel confident that the computer is as optimized as possible, then try to install Premiere Elements 11.
We will be watching for your progress. Depending on your results, we will think about what next after you report back with the results.
Thanks.

Advice needed on how to track down a program after 3 mins upti

Hi... really struggling with tracking down a daemon/script that is running on my system.... have openbox, with some gnome, xfce and lxde programs to make it more gui based. Wondering if someone can can help me track down the program that is over-riding my synaptics config?
Basically, I have a synaptics config file in xorg.conf.d that is read and applied at boot. Then at around 3min 28 secs of uptime, this config gets overridden. I have stared at the output of top to see if there is anything showing up at around that time, but I not noticing anything!
The arch wiki mentions;
Gnome settings daemon may override existing settings (for example ones set in xorg.conf.d) for which there is no equivalent in any of the graphical configuration utilities. It is possible to stop gnome from touching mouse settings at all:
Run dconf-editor
Edit /org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/mouse/
Uncheck the active setting
It will now respect your system's existing synaptics configuration.
however, this option is not available, so I am assuming this is not the cause (might be mistaken?), but am now lost. I have tried to remove dconf, but it has dependencies I use for smbclient, namely gvfs.
Any ideas / help / guidance or what ever would be great!
Thanks

Oh, overridden. My bad, I read "overwritten" by accident. My apologies. Unfortunately I don't think I can help. Sorry :\. lsof should still help you if what you're trying to do is track though. GDB wouldn't be a bad idea, either.

Need to merge multiple files into pdf automatically

Guys,
I need to automate merging files into one pdf, i have looked everywhere and cannot seem to find an answer for it. I need to know if there is a command line tool for acrobat so i can use it in my batch file to combine files?

Hi Lauravill,
The free Adobe Reader cannot help you with the merging job. If you have Acrobat Reader then you can merge files into one pdf with the following steps-
Within Acrobat XI, select File > Create > Combine Files into a Single PDF.
Click Add Files and select the files you want to add.
Click, drag, and drop to reorder the files and pages. Double-click on a file to expand and rearrange individual pages. Press the Delete key to remove unwanted content.
When finished arranging the files, click Combine Files.
Select File > Save As > PDF.
Name your PDF file and click Save.
Let us know if you face any problemwith this or need extra support.
Thanks

Need to export multiple tracks

I have a sequence with 8 tracks of audio.
When I created the sequence, I set it up as "Stereo", not "Multichannel."
Now I need to export 8 separate WAV or AIFF files, 1 per track.
I cannot change the sequence to multichannel.
I could create a new multichannel sequence, and copy/paste, but then I lose all my Track Mixer effects and levels, which would take a LONG time to re-create manually.
Is there no way around this?
I suppose I could open it in Audition... but that will create a bunch of extraneous files.

Yeah ... that's what I ended up doing.
Premiere really needs
(a) option to change track settings after the fact; and
(b) ability to copy TRACK MIXER settings from one sequence to another. Especially Track effects. Ideally with PRESETS...

Merge audio tracks in QT Pro?

I have a .mov file (created by capturing video in quicktime pro with a video camera attached by firewire) which has somehow ended up with multiple audio tracks, all starting at different points. (How that happened is a complete mystery to me, but is kind of beside the point right now, though I wouldn't mind knowing that too). Each audio track seems to pick up where the last left off (as in, if you delete one, there is no longer sound for a certain portion of the video). I need to merge these tracks into one audio track, because Final Cut Express HD is giving me errors when I try to import these many-track files. I know I could solve it by just using export or save as..., but I'm really trying to avoid that if possible because I have about 20 clips like this, some as long as 5 hours, and that would take a ton of time and effort.
So, is there any way to just merge the audio tracks into one track, without doing an export?
Thanks!
Claire

is there a way to have alll 6 open and then combine or merge them into one file that I can play on ATV?
for this strategy, I would normally use the free MPEG Streamclip application. To begin, ensure the files are named alpha-numerically in the order in which you want them merged. Then open the MPEG Streamclip application and either "drag 'n drop" all six files to the work area or use the "Open Files..." File menu option to simultaneously select/open all six files. Lastly, export the merged file to the TV preset at the correct aspect ratio/dimensions and/or custom settings desired.
I have done the above but have a audio out of sync problem with it.
You could try pre-converting all AVI files to a common compression format like DV with the "Resample Audio to 48 Khz" and see if this prevents drift during the "merging" and final conversion process.

Saving multiple track information in midi format 0

In order to play sequences on my new yamaha S90 ES, I need to save my sequences as format 0 on a USB disk. Format 0 only allows one region. How do you take a song that you've set up on different regions and dumb them down to one, while retaining the separate midi track information?

I struggled with the same problem, but I think I've managed to come up with a solution. First, the steps explained in the online LE Reference manual are helpful. Search MIDI File 0 (I think the page is around 60). After performing the neccessary steps explained in the Reference manual you need to merge all of your midi tracks down to one track (region). VERY IMPORTANT do not merge them to one of the preset (pre-existing) midi or general midi tracks. If you do this, all the information just plays on one S90ES track - you get midi mush. You need to merge your tracks to an open (neutral?) track. I used the one labeled NO OUTPUT. I drag one midi track to the no output track and then merge any others to that track. I have found that the tracks only seem to merge "up". I drag the NO OUTPUT track to the top of the midi tracks that way they all merge to that track. At this point you should be able to export to your USB drive and the S90 ES should read it as separate tracks. It worked for me anyway. Good Luck!

How to merge multiple live audio streams into a single stream in FMS?

I need to merge multiple live audio streams into a single stream so that i can pass this stream as input to VOIP through a softphone.
For this i tried the following approach:
Created a new stream (str1) on FMS onAppStart and recorded the live streams (sent throgh microphone) in that new stream.
Below is the code :
application.onAppStart = function()
application.myStream=Stream.get("foo");
application.myStream.record();
application.onPublish = function (client,stream)
      var streamName = stream.name;
      application.myStream.play(streamName,-2,-1};
The problem is that the Stream.play plays only 1 live stream at a time.As soon as a the 2nd live stream is sent to FMS then Stream.play stops playing the previous live stream.So,only the latest live stream is getting recorded.Whereas i need to record all the live streams in the new stream simultaneously.
Any pointers regarding this are welcome.
Thanks

well i tried this once for one of my scripts and the final conclusion is its not possible to combine two streams into 1.....how would you time/encode the two voices......there is no know solution to this in flash. If you continue on despite me and find a solution please post it so we can explain to rest of world.

I record multiple tracks (3-5) from real instruments and vocals. I want to send these files to a collaborator to add more tracks to, but Garageband wants to mix these down (which I don't want). How can I send the multiple tracks files to my friend?

I record multiple tracks of real instruments and vocals wth Garage Band. I want to share the file with a collaborator so he can add another instrument or two. I have not found a way to do this without the process mixing down the tracks. I don't want them mixed down like when I send them to Itunes. Also I can't seem to just attach a file directly to an email for sending purposes. I thought I saw a method to do this with software instruments, but how do you do it with real instruments? I've tried every process on the "export" list to try to accomplish this, without success. Thanks for any breakthrough advice on this!

As isteveus said - for large projects uploading to a server would be best.
Also I can't seem to just attach a file directly to an email for sending purposes.
But for completeness's sake , you cou can mail a project, if you ctrl-click the project and use "Compress xxx.band". This will compress the project and create a zip file, that you can mail (if it is not too large). But ask your friend for the maximal file size allowed as a mail attachment.
But whichever method you use to share your project, be sure you include all loops and instruments, if your friend does not have the same JamPacks installed. You can bundle the loops into the project by saving it as an archive. "File > Save as" and check the "Archive Project" option.
If this option should be disabled, you can force it to become active by editing your project slightly. It is only available, if the project needs saving.

Advice Needed: Filtering/Adding effects to multiple tracks

I'm writing a dance song, and at one point would like to apply a few filtering sweeps on selected drum tracks.
Which is the best way to do it? Is it to bounce down the tracks into an audio file, then apply the effects onto that file by itself, or is it better to route the multiple tracks to an effects bus?
I have been trying using a bus, but have found that as soon as I route the tracks to the bus, the is a change in the sound quality of the track (louder and sometimes slightly distorted), even without any plugins on the bus. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.

How are you routing to a bus? If you are just using sends, then what's happeing is that the individual channels are going to the master output, and also being sent to a bus that is also going to the master output - this everything sent to that bus will get louder.
If you want to send a bunch of channels directly to a bus for insert processing, then change each channel's output to the bus, rather than the main output, so the individual channels only go to the mix via the bus, and not directly.
Or are you doing something different to that?

Help needed to track down Problem in tiger with Pioneer DVR-110D

ok as i stated in another topic i own a Beige G3 AIO that is running OS 9.2.2 and OS X 10.4.8 and i have done allot to this system to get it to run faster and to run properly.
part of this setup has a Pioneer DVR-110D it there and when i bought it i was running OS 9.2.2 only. at first i could not burn anything with it cause it wasn't supported and when i went to put the system to sleep it would freeze when i would wake it up it never did this before i installed the drive so i knew what was causing it.
i turned off HDD sleep and the problem was fixed. but i didn't like the ideal of having the hdd running all the time when idle. me and a friend was talking about optical drive issues and he said he found this driver replacement for the apple cd/dvd driver called intech speed tool's 6.0 for OS 9.2.2 and that i should give it a try cause it fixed a few problems for him.
i downloaded the demo of it and installed it and i turned on hdd sleep and put the system to sleep and woke it back up and the system was running great. so now the wake up freeze problem was cured. but still no burn support. so after a few weeks of posting on here about the problem some one came by and said he knew what the problem was and sent me a modded PioneerCDR authoring support extension. i installed it and rebooted and opened iTunes and iTunes showed Pioneer DVR-110D as the devise to burn to. so i tryed it and behold it burned a audio cd with no problems.
later i bought a western digital SE 120gb hdd and installed it and partitioned it 3 times a 8gb first partition for OS X a second partition 10gb for OS 9.2.2 and the 3rd partition was the rest of the drives size for shared data and storage. the hdd worked great with no issues so it was time to try OS X on this system cause i was waiting to get a large HDD to do so.
i figured that the Pioneer drive would not boot the OS X jaguar cd and is a known problem with non apple cd rom drives. so i took out the Pioneer and reinstalled the apple 24x stock cd rom drive. and the jag install cd booted without a hitch. Jag installed and was running so i updated to 10.2.8 and found out the internal screen kept going out and locking the system up. so i searched this forum for the onboard video blackout and came across the terminal work around to get the system to behave itself with having more than 192mb ram installed. i rebooted and all went fine afterward.
i reinstalled the Pioneer drive and went to testing it all was fine everything mounted on the desktop that i put in the drive. but i lacked the ability to burn with the drive cause still the drive wasn't supported be the system so i searched the forum and came across the program called patchburn. i downloaded it and ran it and patched the driver to support iApps burning with this drive. so i put in a blank cd and went to burn in iTunes it burned flawlessly so i tryed a dvd-r with the finder it to burned flawlessly.
o loved playing a game planeshift and then they stopped supporting 10.2.8 so i went to buy the tiger install cd's. i already knew the Beige G3 was not a supported version of Os X on this system and you had to use xpostfacto 4 to install tiger on this system. so i did what i had to do to install tiger on the system and selected use old NDRV and selected to install tiger. which installed some files to boot tiger and rebooted yet again the Pionner drive refused to boot the install cd's . i got mad and held down the command option power key's for about 10 seconds and let off. the tiger installer booted and got to where it started to copy the files to the hdd and stalled out and the drive spun down never to spin back up or show signs of life so i powered down the system and removed the pioneer drive and put the stock 24x cdrom in and installed tiger.
after tiger was installed i shut down the system and installed the pioneer drive. and powered back on and it was in verbose mode showing what was going on one part showed that the Pioneer drive was detected but had no kernel dependencies and continued to boot. i went to repair the permitions when the onboard video went blank and the system locked up. i rembered that 10.2.8 did the same thing so i tried the 10.2.8 screen blackout fix in 10.4 and rebooted. the onboard video didnt come on but since i had a ATI Radeon 7000 i could work around in tiger to update to 10.4.7 at the time. i first repaired permitions and then ran software update and updated everything and rebooted. the onboard video came back on allong with the ATI Radeon 7000 which being used as boot video device and shown the gray apple logo with the spinning pin wheel at the bottom.
so far tiger was running great so i put a disk in the drive and nothing it didn't mount anything so i ejected it with the button on front of the drive and tryed a dvd movie and got the same nothing as with the cd. so i rebooted with the dvd in the drive al behold tiger mounted the dvd but as soon as i would try to do anything with it the drive would stop and i would have to reboot the system to gain the drive back so i can repair permissions. and never tryed to use the drive again
10.4.8 update came out i updated to it using software update and rebooted. the update went flawless so i thought to myself what if the pioneer drive worked now. so i put a cd in the drive and it mounted the disk. then i ejected it with amazement and put a dvd in and it to mounted. so i tryed to play the dvd and it played the dvd to the end of the movie. i took out the dvd and rebooted. i tryed to put the dvd back in but it didnt mount. which ****** me off as to why it was just working and now its not.
i rebooted and the dvd mounted as soon as the desktop showed up so i tried to play it but this time it only played for about 10-13 minutes before the drive stopped spinning which made dvd player stop responding which made me have to force quit the dvd player and try to restart which gave me a kernel panic. so i forced restarted (got a forum to send to apple to report the KP so i did) and the dvd mounted once again as soon as the desktop showed so i ejected the dvd and put a audio cd in and it mounted and i played the hole cd. so i ejected that and put a blank cd in and treed to burn and it got to 30% and then the drive spun down and made the disk utility stop responding. so i forced quit disk utility and rebooted. once it rebooted nothing popped up so i pressed the eject button on the drive and the cd r came out.
the OS X 10.4.8 update made the drive more stable but still wont burn anything. some times it will still not mount anything, some time it will not play anything, and still fails to copy files over to the hdd. so now im left to believe its a driver issue some where since this drive worked so flawlessly in jaguar and OS 9 but fails to work properly in tiger.
i looked in the extensions in ASP in 10.4.8 and there is a few extensions showing errors. i made a list of them to show

that is the list of extensions that are reporting some sort of errors. at first i was figuring it was a problem with the driver for the Pioneer drive but my friend brought over his digital audio G4 which was also running 10.4.8. and we decided to try the drive in his Mac to see if there was any problems. it mounted everything we threw in it. it played dvd's great and played audio cd's great, it copied files over to the hdd without fail. it even burned a flawless cd. ok now the ideal of the driver for the drive was thrown out the window. so it has to be something else causing the problem. either a driver for a part on the motherboard or what i have no clue.
im just wondering what driver it would be causing a problem not allowing the Pioneer drive to work properly. cause its not the drive being bad cause it worked flawlessly in OS 9.2.2 and jaguar and in tiger in my friends digital audio G4
im just wondering if anyone might know what could be done to fix this problem cause i know it can be fixed but i don't know where to begin or how. so i ask you how could i begin to fix this
thank you all for baring with me and reading all this. i know i wrote allot but i had to explain what was going on before i could ask for help so you could better understand what was going on. i have already updated the firmware to the latest with no change the firmware use to be the old 1.11

yea i have along time ago and also made a update to xlr8's drive database. cause i fixed the problems with the drive in OS 9.2.2 (AKA no burn support with the built in burning app or iTunes, now have full support for burning with the finder burn and iTunes thanks to a edited PioneerCDR authoring support extension that someone edited for me. found out that the Apple CD/DVD driver extension was at fault for the locking up on wake up with hdd sleep enabled that started when i installed the Pioneer drive. fixed with intech CD/DVD speedtools 6.0).
When i did the first report on the drive database on xlr8yourmac i reported what problems i was having in OS 9.2.2 and i think i reported that i had no problems in jaguar, and was trying to obtain a driver or something to try to get it to work. but to no avail at first. after i fixed the problems i did a update report
in jaguar the drive had no problems but no burn support. installed patchburn and the drive worked 100% in jag no problems what so ever. im thinking it has somthing to do with one or all of the extensions with errors but i can be wrong.
i just wonder where ryan has been on the forums in OWC's site. cause i would like to submit my crash log panic log and the extensions with errors so he could help track down the problems to see if it cant be fixed. but ive tried emailing him but no replay's. and his last reply on the OWC forums was back in desember 2005 a few day's over a year
i know it isnt the drive cause it worked flawlessly in tiger 10.4.8 on my friends Digital Audio but i know why it worked fine cause it has the proper files for the DA to work cause its a supported system. i would like to try to help to get xpostfacto to work better on the Beige G3 system
in tiger if it is something to do with xpostfacto

Quicktime .mov containers with multiple tracks not working on iPhone

Hello,
I have several .mov files (containers) that all include H.264 mp4 video tracks and AAC sound tracks.
Some of the .mov files only include one video track and one sound track, but some contain multiple, as I have joined a few clips together into one container. Each .mov file was saved as a Standalone file, so no reference files are needed.
All of them play perfectly in Quicktime and iTunes and all sync with both AppleTV and my iPhone. They also play perfectly in AppleTV, but my iPhone only plays files with a single video and audio track. If the .mov container includes more than one video track, the iPhone will play the first track and then freeze when it should transition to the next track. (Is this a known iPhone bug?)
My question is: Is there a way to merge video tracks and sound tracks within a .mov container without having to re-encode/export the file to an iPhone format?
The reason I do not want to export everything to an iPhone format is because I already tried that, and the total size of all the exported .m4v files is around 10 GB but the size of the .mov files is only 5.6 GB, yet I do not see any difference in quality. And my iPhone is only 8 GB, so I can't sync all of the files if I use the iPhone format.
I've also tried several different settings with iSquint, but the smallest I can get the files down to is 7.4 GB without compromising the quality, and that leaves very little space left on the iPhone.
Note: The iPhone is a 2G phone with the latest firmware.

I'm having the exact same issue with my iphone 4s.. I have a belkin wireless router with multiple other devices connecting effortlessly every time. I have my old iphone 3G, and ipod touch, and 2 laptops connecting with no issues. I am receiving the same error message as you. Lame.. If this doesn't resolve itself soon, I am returning the iphone 4s.

How do you merge multiple songs into one album?

When I added a downloaded album to iTunes, it created one album for each track. How do I merge all of these albums/tracks into one album?

Some albums will fracture into a million pieces if you have different artist names. How the columns are sorted can effect this.
If it is a multiple artists on one album select 'Compilation' in the options section for all of the songs on the album.
NOTE: You need to have multiple items selected to set this flag!

How do I merge multiple Excel files with more than one tab in each file using PowerQuery?

Hello
I have 12 Excel (.xlsx) files and each file has three identically named and ordered tabs in them.
I know how to merge multiple Excel files in a folder using M (those guides are all over the web) but how do I merge multiple Excel files with multiple (yet identically named and ordered) tabs? Surely it is possible? I just don't know how to do it in M.
Cheers
James

What Laurence says is correct, and probably the best thing to do when the sheets have differing structures. Here is an alternate approach that works well when the sheets all have the same structure.
When you first open the Excel file from Power Query, you can see its structure in the navigator at the right-hand-side of the screen. If you select the root (which is the filename itself) and click Edit, you'll see all the tabs in the sheet as a single table.
You can now do filtering based on the Name, Item and Kind values. When you've reduced the set of things down to the sheets you want, select the Data column and say "Remove Other Columns". If the sheets don't have any header rows, you can just click the expand
icon in the header and you'll be done.
Otherwise, if the sheets have headers or if some other kind of sheet-level transformation is required against each sheet before doing a merge, you'll have to write some M code manually. In the following example, each sheet has a header row consisting of
two columns: Foo and Bar. So the only step I need to perform before merging is to promote the first row into a header. This is done via the Table.TransformColumns operation.
let
    Source = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("C:\Users\CurtH\Desktop\Test1.xlsx")),
    RemovedOtherColumns = Table.SelectColumns(Source,{"Data"}),
    PromotedHeaders = Table.TransformColumns(RemovedOtherColumns,{{"Data", each Table.PromoteHeaders(_)}}),
    ExpandData = Table.ExpandTableColumn(PromotedHeaders, "Data", {"Foo", "Bar"}, {"Data.Foo", "Data.Bar"})
in
    ExpandData
