No sound when i import garage banmd files into logic express 7.1

i have garage band 3.0.4 and logic express 7.1. i just acquired both of these recently and have been trying to transfer my old garage band 2 files into LE. i have no problems putting my songs into garage band 3 but when i open them in logic theres no sound output. everything appears to be working, all the meters light up except the output master all the way at the end of the mix window. i dont get it. some of my GB2 files opened in LE with no problems but others, made with gb3 or exported from gb2 to gb3, wont work. i messed with the preferences, the sound is set to core audio but im still perplexed. anyone else had this problem? help!

thanks, ill give it a try. ive noticed that i dont have any problems when i open my GB2 files directly into LE. its only when i go through GB3. its really a drag, because i just updated and it seems theres no going back. pretty disappointing if you ask me. i updated to GB3 because of its much hyped "resolutions" of old problems, and here i am stuck with new problems. bah! thanks for the help anyway. if anyone knows of an easier/more efficient way to deal with this issue, let me know! thanks again.

I am not being able to play sound when I import a .MTS file from my folder

I am not being able to play sound when I import a .MTS file from my folder on my sequence bar of my Premiere Pro CS6. Even if I use my Media Browser to import the file, the video plays fine, but the audio is disabled it seems. I don't know what to do since I have used .MTS files before without hassle on CS5.5. It is quite frustrating. What can I do?

Hi debesh05,
Please mention the Operating System that you are using and also make and model of the Camera that was used to capture those clips. Also, try to make another folder with the same name in the same location where the .MTS files are and move all the clips into the new folder and then try to import the files again using Media Browser in Premiere Pro CS6. If this doesn't work then make a copy of one file and rename it as .M2TS and then import that single file into Premiere Pro CS6. Please update if either of the solution works for you.

When i import a movie file into iMovie,it somehow reverts to the shortened file of the same name that i previously had used

I'm trying to import a movie file into imovie that I know is 3hr16mins long but when it's finished importing,all I have in the programme is the heavily edited 51mins that i used in a previous project (using the same file),5 years ago. How can I stop iMovie from reverting back or could the much longer file be there and I have incorrect settings so I can't see it all?

Are these files MPEG compressed files? iMovie can not deal with the multiplexed audio of those files. For suggestions on how to get them right start here...

And if your files are not MPEGs, some of the suggestions on that page may still do what you need done.

Imported 1h 20m file into Logic Pro 7.1.1.it Became Unstable

Imported an hour and twenty minute file into logic, and it became really unstable. i tried to cut the region up, and save the clips as differnt files, but it wouldn't let me stopped playing the file after a certain bar (bar 57).
is this normal behavior?

Try trashing Logic prefs. (Or move to desktop to re-import keycommands)

HT201368 I got an error message when trying to import a Garage Band song into Logic Express 9.

Logic Express 9.1.8 (which I have) claims to be the most recent update.

YOu have not provided any system info, not told us what version of AE you use, your audio setting, what specifics in the audio file and a million other things. See how it may not be possible for anyone to tell you anything beyond "Your computter sucks!" ???

Opening Garage Band files in Logic Express

I'm a school music teacher and have just started using Logic Express 7 to open kids' Garage Band files for tidying up and polishing.(Still a beginner with logic I'm afraid!) Have just purchased Logic Express 8 update, but haven't installed it because I heard that it won't open Garage Band 3 files. Is this true? If so, is it possible to have both 7 and 8 running independently on the computer? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The original release of LE8 had a bug which required a workaround to open GB files. The subsequent 8.0.1 update fixed that. After you install LE8, go to Software Update and install the 8.0.1 update and you will be fine.

Transfer Digital Performer files into Logic Express?

I have some old recordings that are on a ADAT tape. A friend of mine said he could transfer them to Digital Performer. Does Logic open DP files?
Paul

Unfortunately, as was pointed out, Logic Express does not open Digital Performer files.
Not does it import OMF files, nor Broadcast Wave files, which means you can't export time-stamped waves from DP and import into LE. If you know someone with Logic Pro, it DOES support Broadcast Wave. This could be one work around.
Otherwise, you'll have two options.
1) Import the ADAT recordings directly into LE using an interface that supports ADAT In (MOTU 828mkII comes to mind). This will only work if you can re-assign the inputs of the interface to be the first 8, since LE only "sees" the first 12. This is one of the major limitations of LE, and why it's not really suited for "pro" work.
2) Import into DP, and then bounce the tracks in DP as separate WAVE of AIFF files, then import them directly into LE in the Audio Window. As long as each file starts (and ends, preferably) at the same time (i.e. as set in the DP bounce), you should have no problem aligning the tracks in LE7.
Number 2 is probably the best solution. Just remember that each of the WAVE files created in DP should begin at the same time (i.e. 0 0 0 0). This will GREATLY simplify the import into LE and make aligning the tracks a painless procedure. You can edit later in LE.
Hope this helps.

No sound when i import QT DV movie into FCP

I downloaded some .mpeg movies from a site and exported them from QTP as DV NTSC movies. When I open them in FCP I get no sound. There is not even a sound clip when i drag the video into the sequence. They play in QT perfectly. Thank you for your help.

I used the m2v and aiff file conversion choice in mpegsreamclip. The m2v file will not play in FCP however the aiff file will. I converted the m2v file in QTP to a DV file but then i have to place this over the m2v and aiff files in the FCP sequence. So essentially the problem is solved. However is there any way to join the files to clean this up or should I have used a different choice in mpegstreamclip?

Importing a Finale Composition into Logic Express (8)

Hi, I would like to know how to go about importing a composition done in Finale to Logic so I can master it. I have saved the finale file as a midi file and opened that in Logic, but it doesn't retain the Garritan instrument sounds, and I really don't know what I'm doing anyway. Can someone tell me what is the best process for doing this?

Thanks, actually I have read through the manual a bit, and when it comes to tracking and editing I do know what I'm doing, but when it comes to this specifically, I don't :P
I read the part about importing/opening midi, and I followed the instructions, and it seems that it did actually open all the right parts and everything even with the right Garritan instruments, but now I don't hear anything during playback. I see the little trim meters moving when the sound should be playing, but nothing comes out:/
Right now I'm going to try the long process of extracting each different part from my score and then make an audio file of each to import on a its own audio track. This should work in principle, but it just seems to me that there should be an easier way.

Letters and numbers are being deleted when I import a PDF file to my catalogue

I have a business catalogue that I change from time to time. I will make the changes in MS Word 2003 and then convert the document to a PDF file. I will then import the PDF file to my catalogue. Recently when I have impurted the PDF file I have noticed that letters on pages above the inserted PDF file and letters below the inserted PDF file will be missing. I recently updated my Acrobat Reader from 8.0 to 9.0, so maybe that is an issue.

How are you converting the documents to PDF ? Are you using Acrobat, if so, which version of Acrobat?
Also, what exactly do you mean when you "import the PDF file into my catalog". Which software are you importing the PDF into?

Import midi-file to logic express 7

Can I import Mac alias files into Premiere Pro CC?

I am trying to keep my folder structure clean and organized, and am using alias files to gather miscellaneous B-roll video files into a new project folder without removing them from their permenant location and without creating duplicates. Alias files on a mac are basically shortcuts to the original file. FCP 7 and FCP X will import these alias files with no problems, but when I try to import them into Premiere Pro, it says they are unsupported file types. Is there any way to make this work?

Thanks, I was prepared to hear that I would have to make a copy. One note though, is that when i import the alias file into a Final Cut Pro project, it automatically links to the original permanent file location, so if the alias gets deleted, it doesn't matter becuase it is linked to the original.
To answer your question, though, the idea for using alias files is to keep the server clean, so that multiple video editors don't keep copying the same files multiple times into their project folders when they start a new project, and then no one goes back and cleans it up, so you end up with Terabytes of duplicate files on the server. I guess the other option is to train everyone to hunt for the original files themselves and import from that location instead of their own project folders.

Image problems importing Illustrator 10 file into Flash MX.

Hello,
I'm working on my portfolio and want to import an Illustrator
(version 10) file into Flash (Flash MX). The problem I'm having is
that when I import the Illustrator file into Flash, it comes out
looking blurred. I tried exporting the Illustrator file into
Photoshop and saving it as a JPEG, PNG, and TIFF (in each file
format, changing the image size to 72 dpi) and I still get the same
blurred result. I also tried saving the file for web, in
Illustrator (in JPEG and PNG formats) with no success as well.
The Illustrator file is a small collage of my graphic design
work (where I pasted graphic work done in Illustraor and made
clipping masks to collage them together), so I'm not sure if
bringing these files together maybe causing some technical issue or
is importing Illustrator files into Flash just something that will
always appear blurred. If so, is there a way I can bring the file
into Photoshop and work with it where I can import it without the
blurred appearance?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

We have multiple request to add support for externally linked files and certainly see the value. There also are a couple third party solutions that offer linked file behavior (I'm not sure what versions of Ps they work with).

Importing 32 bit aifs and OMF files into Logic

Is it possible to import 32 bit aifs into Logic Express 7 and arrange using an OMF file? If so, how?!
Please help. Thanks in advance!

Have you tried importing it into iTunes? If that works, you could use iTunes to turn it into a file that GB can handle:
