One Instrument change affecting all tracks

I'm having a problem changing the Instrument patch in just one track: When I change the patch (on EXSP24) on a single Audio Instrument track, it automatically applies the same patch change to ALL Audio Instrument tracks. For example:
I've got drums on track 1, Instrument 1, Channel 1.
I create a new Instrument track w/new channel & a different patch. Logic then automatically assignes this new patch to the previous drum track also, as well as any other existing Instrument tracks, & any new tracks I try to create! Any change I make in one track comes up the same on every track.
What gives? Does this have anything to do with choosing Mono, Stereo or Multi Channel in the I/O slot? Does the Cycle function have anything to do with it?
This is aggravating & my ProCare tutor can't figure it out either. I'm pretty new to Logic, but then again I get the sense that so is my ProCare tutor...

I can't believe your basic question has been ignored for this long. This is something that I had hoped somebody else would give you a better answer for because it has driven me crazy as well, but I do have a work around for you that I stumbled across. The manual as usual has been unhelpful, the proper information is probably filed away in a tiny corner somewhere. Here's how I do it. Use the Create command from the the Track sub-menu of the arrange window. Logic will create a track under and with the same assignment as whatever track was highlighted prior to that command. Any changes to the assignment of either of these tracks will affect the other, which could be very useful, but shouldn't be the default in my opinion. Now click hold in the middle of the track name or icon. Follow the menu hierarchy as such: Audio>Audio Instrument>Inst X, X being a different number than the instrument number of your initial highlighted track. You could also select Audio Track, Bus, Aux or Output this way. You can now go to the channel strip and select whatever software instrument assignments you like for either track and they will work independently of each other. This is way too many commands for something as elementary as setting up a new track. I've assumed that there is a more elegant way to do this but I can't find it in the manual. If any of my fellow geniuses know of a more streamlined method, please add it to this thread.

How do you copy all tracks from one garageband song with all track settings to another existing file

I want to copy all tracks with their settings into another already existing garageband file so I can move it to my ipad. How do I do this, or is there a way at all?

Only if in iTunes on a conmputer you midify the info for that song to only list that one artist.

Changing one checkbox changes them all

Hello,
I'm using Acrobat Pro X. In my pdf I am adding fields but suddenly Acrobat crashes. I open the document again, ignore the restore/saved version as I recently saved and re-opened from that local copy.
Suddenly whenever I edit a checkbox's name it reproduces that name for all the checkboxes on the page. Deleting the box and starting over produces the same error.
Also, the tab order box is now completely grey.
Thanks for any help.

It sounds like something is wrong with the file. I would start with a virgin PDF as you originally did, making sure all of the fonts are embedded, and copy & paste the fields from the old to the new and try again.

Multiple MIDI tracks to one instrument?

The plugin is Ultrabeat.
I like putting the kick onto one MIDI track
the snare into another MIDI track,
hats on another, etc....
Problem is, all of the MIDI tracks that route to the Ultrabeat
are the actual instrument track that has the plugin inserted onto it.
So MUTING one track mutes all the audio coming out of
the Ultrabeat Instrument track.
An attempt at a workaround is: create a Multi-instrument
in the Environment, and connect it to the Ultrabeat.
But then MUTING the MIDI tracks doesn't do anything.
The MIDI tracks play even when MUTED.
So I'm guessing Region Muting is the way we do it?
Selecting individual regions for muting and solo-ing
instead of muting and soloing the track ?
So..the MUTE button on a MIDI track is there for...NO REASON.
It's just a button that doesn't do anything.
Well.. this MIDI track has muted and non-muted regions on it.
I guess I'll need to remember which ones are muted and which
are not ?
This couldn't possibly have been something that was thought over
and planned.
Nobody in their right mind would design it this way on purpose.
A solution would be to allow MIDI tracks to be MUTED using the 'M' button

Are you talking about MIDI track on external MIDI?
your question seems to be related with Instrument tracks...
there many Muting possibilities in Logic...
I suggest to read the manual serch for "mute track"
As you can see in the manual there are tons of pages and paragraphs about MUTE function in Logic Pro... so I cannot explain all the way to MUTE a Midi or Audio
I can only say that Instruments tracks are not the same as External MIDI track device... *but Muting Instrument track is very similar as Audio and Midi mixed together functions*
'cause the Instruments channels strips are AUDIO CHANNELs STRIPs!
Maybe the following pictures can help
Try to change setting with the one shown below
CPU-savings is not the correct therm and maybe this is caused of misunderstanding...
this set allow you to individually mute the duplicate tracks...
_+The "M" button that you are metioned in your post will works as you need.+_
I'm trying to replay to the O.P question
multiple MIDI tracks to one instrument?
if you need to mute individually tracks of a single instrument the last pictures shows the best setting to achieve the result that you are looking for.

Assign one instrument to several tracks?

Another easy one, probably.
How do I assign the same instrument to several different tracks in one go? Selecting them all and clicking on the instrument only changes the top track.
Thanks

There may be others ways of doing this but....
I simply open the Mixer.... then load the instrument into the first track
Then hold down the option key and drag & drop the instrument from the first track into the instrument slots of the other tracks...
Or.... even simpler
Create the first track, add the instrument (and FXs, auxes etc.. you want to duplicate) and then press the New Track with Duplicate settings button.... for however many dup tracks you wish....

i would like to be able to insure that when i import a CD into i-Tunes that all tracks from that CD go into a single file for that album in their proper order regardless of whether or not there is a featured artist on one or two tracks or whatever. i recentl;y imported an All Time Low CD into i-Tunes for my daughter and because one song featured a guest artist i-Tunes placed that song in a seperate folder and so when i synced my daughters i-Pod Touch that one track is not with the rest of the tracks form the album and has to be listened to seperately. The song is from the same album and should be where it belongs with the rest of that album so she can listen to the entire album with the tracks in the proper order. I am sure that this can be done i just don't know how.

Edit the Name of the problem song to Name [Feat. Guest]
Change the Artist of that song to All Time Low

What you want cannot be done. iTunes has its quirks, and the above is the kind of workaround needed to make the media display sensibly on any device. The article I pointed you to has others that you may find useful in future.

CS5 problem Adjustment layers only affect one layer instead of all

I am getting this problem with Photoshop CS5 I think one of the settings got changed by accident but for some reason I cannot get any of the adjustment layers Levels,Curves etc to affect all layers under them. Instead it just changes the brightness of one layer only which is the one just below the adjustment layer but not all of the others. I use Photoshop for Digital art and I was all of the layers under the adjustment to change the look of the full image instead of just one layer. Is there any way of fixing this problem? I dont know what to do

I think I know what the problem may be:
When you're adding a new adjustment layer the following checkbox is coming on by default:
You probably changed the default for this. Here's how to change it back:
Make the Adjustments panel visible by clicking the Window - Adjustments menu.
Click the little fly-out menu icon at the upper-right.
Clear the Clip To Layer checkbox.

Does "Export all tracks as audio files" output HyperDraw volume changes?

Does "Export all tracks as audio files" output HyperDraw volume changes?
Thanks

I'm pretty sure it just collates all the Regions on each Track to give one file per Track. This would imply that automation would not be included.
To be certain, you could make up a quick Project with one Region & an automated fade, & see what happens; but I would bet you just get the audio, not the automation.

All tracks from one artist merged into one huge album. How to separate into correct albums?

So all the songs from one artist have merged into one huge album. All I did was select all the songs and changed the artist name. Not sure why my iPod has it under one album. On iTunes they're separated into the correct albums but on my iPod it isn't. All the info (Artist name, album name, etc) is good, i checked a million times and still can't seem to figure out why my iPod is reading it like that. Has anyone ever had this problem?

Thanks for the great link!
Although it doesn't allow me to cut 'n paste, like I was hoping, the answers give me a lot of insight as to how the track fields are structured, as well as full control over whether or not I want to group tracks together within the same Album. So, in the end, this information is more useful than the cut 'n paste function, as it prevents me from losing potentially useful track information.

Expire/Reduce for One PO Affected all POs

GW8.0.2 HP3 on SLES 11 SP1
I have 9 post offices. Each POA has 4 scheduled events that includes a daily user database check. We do not expire any messages but have mailbox size limits set. We leave it up to the user to manage their own mailbox size. One post office is for our retirees. We have a problem with this one as the mailbox sizes constantly grow. I decided to create a POA scheduled event, for just this PO, to expire messages that are older than 180 days. This new event was only enabled on the one POA. Well, it did run, but it ran for all the POAs. So, this morning I come in and all the post offices have been expired. I looked at the scheduled event for the user database check and it's Expire/Reduce option had been changed to match the one I created for single POA.
What a mess. Anyway, is this normal behavior? It seems wierd that I can't create a new single event, and assign it to one POA, without it affecting all the others.
Phillip

See http://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=10021870
I know it's old, but as far as I know it still works the same way on GW8.
After you created the new event, did you explicitly go into all the other
post offices and disable the new event ?

How can I quickly get the same album art for all tracks on an album without manually doing them one at a time?

I am having trouble with album art linked to each track. My library is ripped from my own cd's and ITunes only provides some of the artwork from a find artwork search. The rest must be found and added one at a time manually from web. This process is tedious and time consuming for me. Is there a file in iTunes related to each album that I can just drop the art once and it shows up linked to all the tracks from that album when they play? I've tried selecting all songs from an album and dragging the artwork to the artwork window once in hopes of all tracks getting the artwork at the same time with no luck. Any advice for this paltry artwork dilemma would be appreciated. If Cassidy & Greene still owned this ******* child of SoundJam I know I would not be having this problem! HaHa...Thanks for any advice/help with this problem.

Thx 4 quick reply alexbird. Your method will work and after a little experimenting so will this: Just go to the album art view option and highlight the album you want artwork for. Drag the artwork from your album art web search page to bottom left hand album art window in iTunes and just drop it there. A small progress window then appears showing each album track adopting the dropped artwork one by one. It only takes 10-15 seconds for all of the tracks on your album to adopt the new artwork. I then went back and removed unwanted artwork(from the albums that had it) track by track from the get info menu. This goes pretty quick as you just pick track>get info>artwork>highlight art>delete>ok for each track.
This drag/drop to the album art view page has been the simplest and most effective way I have discovered to manually import album artwork into iTunes so far. Hope this helps someone else out there. Any other methods or suggestions to do this task added to this thread will be duly noted. Thx... Oh, I am currently using iTunes 10.5.1

Change header and footer in one jsp impact on all jsps

If i change header and footer in one jsp page it show reflect the changes in all jsps can any one help me .

Manually i shd not change in all jsp pages.Once if
i change in particular page then all pages shd be
e reflected with the changesyes, my previous reply does the same way you want.
You have to include (use include directive) your header & footer jsp file in other jsp pages where you wanted them. And once you do any change in header & footer jsp it will automatically effect other jsp.
Follow the link if you dont know how to use include directive

How to export all tracks in one aiff?

I have a very simple multi-track project. It's just two people talking. One of them is on track 1, the other on track two. I want to export this project as an aiff and be able to hear both tracks. So far, every time I export the "master mix" I'm only getting track 1. Track 2 doesn't come out at all.
Ideally, I would be able to create a mix wherein I'm not hear track 1 on the left stereo speaker and track 2 on the right speaker. I'd like each track mixed together so that I'm hearing each voice on both the left and right channels.

Julian, are you hearing what you desire when you play the project? Because an export of the mix should sound the same as what you get on playback.
If you have 2 tracks in the project. The panning on both channels is 0 or in the center. The submix output is stereo. The File > Export > Exported items is Master Mix. Then the result should be a stereo file with both of your audio tracks equally on both sides of the stereo master file. This would then sound like it is coming from the center of your 2 speakers.
The mixer is accessed a few ways. If you have the lower pane open (Control-S), there is a tab for mixer. Or maybe try toggling between the normal view F1 and the other view F2 which has a separate mixer window.
