Oldskool chase sync with FCP and audio timecode

hello all
I am using FCP to edit video (wow, cutting edge!)
and am starting out using Logic Pro 7 for scoring
but I really want to put together a system that lets me bounce back and forth
between the two with out much trouble (import export of xml)
Back in the day, it was common to take a video tape and stripe a single audio track with "audio timecode"
then the composer would playback to the video tape as the master and the sequencer would chase the audio timecode on the video tape
why would I want to do this now?
because FCP has no MIDI (or ReWire)
and the idea is to be able to edit and score at the same time
what I do have is more than one computer
I'd like one to have logic running in chase sync to an audio timecode track coming from FCP running on a second computer
so that I could have midi events running in sync
I'm thinking that I would have a dedicated audio out from FCP just for the audio timecode and logic should be able to follow when I hit play in FCP
any thoughts or tips?

Hey all, I found the solution!!!! Please see this link for a screencast of the way to keep your audio in sync and not drifting! I hope that you have the sucess I had in "tripping" this way and if you had success let me know, so I know the screencast was worthwhile. Yeah, Forums!

  • Sync of Video and Audio streams

    I got a main project to make a video conferance system. And i'm not sure how to sync the video and Audio streams. (Audio need to have higher priority than video)
    Video is all moust real-time but audio is around 0.5 sec delay at the fastest.
    I realy need to find out how to sync them since its one of my main subjects in the project.
    So if anyone know how to, plz let me know.

    Hello,
    I try to implement a videoconference in Java with JMF. At the reception, audio and vid�o aren't synchronizing. I'm looking for a solution to resolve this problem because i think in this kind of application, audio and video tracks must be synchronized. I'd like to know when and how can i do the synchronization : at the capture, before transmission, or at the reception ?

  • I tried to update my ipod touch software update by syncing with itunes and now its in recovery mode?  Is it possible to get it out of recovery mode?  if so, then how?

    I tried to update my ipod touch software by syncing with itunes and it put the ipod into "recovery mode".  Seems like the only option is to restore?  Is there a way to get it out of recovery mode?

    No.
    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • Any recommendations on productivity for database and project management, Bento was good but no longer sync with ical and address book

    I've unfortunately updated to the new Bento on MakBook and iPad and synced my data and in the process it tells me that iCal and Address books will not sync any more.  I have several projects I am working on and looking for something that will syn with iCal, address book and Busy Cal to manage my  time efficiently and seamlessly. Help?

    I think you're in the wrong forum - this is for developers, who write programs for apple products.
    As for Bento, their problem is due to Apple's changes in the API.  The code that syncs with calendars and contacts is now deprecated, which means at some point in the future, it will no longer work.  This problem will affect all developers, so you probably won't find any replacement for Bento.

  • IPad syncing with iCloud and Exchange = problems ?

    Greetings,
    I am using Apple products since 2 years ago. Everything started with an iPod Touch 64 and things grew to an iPhone4, iPad and now, an iPad 2.
    I also have a Motorola Xoom (Honeycomb 3.2 based), a Samsung Galaxy S2 and a HTC Desire Z with Android 2.3.3.
    All devices are configured to sync mails, calendar, contacts, notes and tasks with an Exchange Server. Until iOS5 and iCloud, there were no problems whatsoever. Contacts created on any device used to replicate to the others without a problem, although the iDevices (iOS based) never understood “categories”, a resource commonly used in an outlook environment to help sorting things out.
    Last week, Ibought the iPad2. Updated it and configured it to use the same Exchange Server as the other devices. Also, I chose to use iCloud.
    After that, I noticed that on a daily basis, contacts would appear without categories, first day, a few, around 5. Second day, 10 more. Third day, more 20. After the second day, I also noticed that the “display as” field (also known as “FiledAs”) was starting to show names with Last, First order. Here in Brazil we sort names as First Last. Of course, outlook, all android devices and also the iPad were all configured correctly (First, Last).
    The problem was getting bigger every day. Yesterday, 900+ of my almost 2000 contact list were mixed up, missing their categories and also had their first and last names changed in the Filed As field.
    After deleting, editing, restoring backups etc. more than once, I have finally found that the iCloud is probably the culprit.
    Changed my iPad config to keep from syncing with iCloud and configured it to backup locally.
    Deleted all accounts in all devices, deleted all data from contacts. Configured the accounts and left the devices syncing. Restored a backup. All devices synced and received the contacts.
    Surprise: problem solved. So far, no missing categories, no inverted First, Last names. Maybe if anyone find himself in the same situation, it might help.

    I have the same problem. My MacPro isn't on Lion, as I have lots of software that isn't compatible yet. But I have 10.7.2. on my MacBookPro and iOS5 on my iPhone and iPad.
    I would like to go to iCloud for those devices that are capable to run it, but I do not want to loose sync services for my MacPro which is on 10.6.8. Will iCloud and MobileMe be in sync until 30.06.2012, so I can use them in parallel, or do I have to wait until all computers are updated to Lion?

  • Got a new iPad and set up to sync with iCloud and now asking for password which I never set. How do I get on device if I don't know what it thinks password is?

    Help.  I just got a new iPad 2 and set up sync with iCloud and no password.  Now asking for a password and I never set one up.  What password does it want: iTunes, iPhone (no real password there either).  Tried as many passwords as I could think with the iPad locking me out since I don't have the password!  Would like to use the iPad but can't get on to try it.
    Thanks.

    So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
    Yes...  sorry.
    In the future, if need be, you can re download your purchases for free  >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Good rule of thumb is to back up your purchases regardless  >  Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases

  • Two Radeons 3870 with FCP and Motion?

    Hi!
    Have you tried to use two 3870 with FCP and Motion?
    I just wanted to have all 512MB of video RAM for my canvas and use the second card with my Matrox MXO to display broadcast preview.
    I know it could be risky, but as I remember earlier the problems shows only while rendering some of the plugins in FCP (my test was on 2006).
    Do you have any experience with pair of 3870 cards?
    I've just ordered two of them:)
    regards
    arti

    From what I've read on this forum, FCP doesn't work properly with two video cards.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you can't do this on a computer, which would be much easier using drag and drop, then you will need to share the contacts with yourself in order to move them to the iCloud account.

  • Have a MacBook Pro running 10.5.8 Leopard.  Can I just download 10.6.8 Snow Leopard as an upgrade so I can wifi sync with iPhone and iPad?

    Have a MacBook Pro running 10.5.8 Leopard.  Can I just download 10.6.8 Snow Leopard so I can wifi sync with iPhone and iPad?

    To expand on Niels post...
    First you need to check that your current Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
    Snow Leopard Specs:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    If it does... then you need to Purchase and Install the Snow Leopard Disc,
    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
    ( It should be noted that Apple will send paid MobileMe members the Mac OS X 10.6 DVD for free.)
