Piano rolls for multiple tracks

Hi,
is it possible to get Logic to open 2 or more piano rolls for different tracks at the same time? It would help with editing if so.
Cheers

Yes, it is possible. Command-6 opens a new piano roll window for whatever region is selected. You'll have to make sure the Link button (top left of the PR window) is unchecked (not yellow) though, or else the open PR window will automatically jump to show the contents of whatever region you select.

JAR Files for multiple tracks

Hi All,
We have a scenario where we need to provide JAR files which needs to be accessible by all the tracks.Is there any solution which is being followed.
In the current landscape we have built external library DC's for each track and trying to access the JARS. But the limitation where we are struck up is this DC is being only accessible to DC's in that track but not to the remaining tracks.
Is there a global solution where we i can make my JAR file can be made accessible to multiple tracks.
Thanks & Regards,
Lokesh Kamana.

Hi,
Thats a good idea.
I have a SC component created in SLD and create a track for this and copy the ext lib DC to this track.
Define outbound connections for moving transports.
But how to create an SCA file for my DC.
ANS:-Just by clicking on assembly get a SCA file for this track and as outbound connection is defined this SCA gets moved to my track import that to all my tracks where i carry out my development.
While moving the transports to other environments do i need to move this SCA file also along with them.
Please let me know whether my understanding is correct or not.
Thanks & Regards,
Lokesh Kamana.

Cannot select Get Info for multiple tracks

I just updated to Lion 10.7.3 and iTunes 10.6.1 and imported my Leopard iTunes Library. I can Get Info on individual tracks but when I shift select or command select multiple tracks the iTunes window turns gray and nothing can be selected. iTunes just freezes until I press the Escape key. So far, everything else works as expected - the only problem is selecting multiple tracks (which worked fine for me on previous OS and iTunes versions).
I haven't found any reports of similar problems so maybe I'm doing it wrong.
Any suggestions?

I solved my own problem - the last time I used iTunes was on a two monitor system. I still have the second monitor connected but it was turned off and the iTunes Get Info window for MULTIPLE selected items was opening on the second monitor. When I did a Get Info on a single selection, the window appeared on the main monitor normally - behavior which never made me think that multiple items would show up in a different window on the turned off monitor.

Volume curve for multiple tracks?

I'm just learning to score films with GarageBand. My first snag is that I want to be able to adjust volume curves on multiple tracks without affecting the audio track of the movie. Is this possible? It's kind of a bother to have to create control points for EACH track that are all identical and then having to adjust them individually. The Master Volume doesn't help, because the movie track follows it unless there's some way to lock it out. Thanks!
Also, any good tutorials out there for scoring movies with GarageBand?

you can not.
the only workaround i can think of would be to create a volume curve on one track, and then duplicate that track as many times as needed, and drag the regions of your other tracks into these duplicated tracks.

Loop length for multiple tracks

Is there a way to set the length of loop repitition, for different tracks?
I tried this the other day, with two tracks that I set up to loop, and when I adjusted the loop length in the top of the arrange window, both tracks were affected.
I want to have one track loop 5 measures, and the second track only 3 but am not sure how to do that.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
RH3906

This is how I do it. Select the track, click on the midi/audio file you have dragged to the track. Then click the 'loop' check box (top left). This will loop the sample all the way to the 'end'. Now simply hover your pointer over where each loop sample is joined and the pointer should change to a different icon - kind of an arrow in a half loop. Now if you click on the sample when you have this pointer you can now drag back and forth where you want the loop to end. Do this for the other track, you can choose how many bars you want it to loop.
What you cant do is set up a loop all the way to the end and make 'holes', that is parts where the loop doesn't happen.
If you want a loop to start again in a different place, simply drag the sample to the new starting location and repeat above.
Hope this helps.

Multiple Screens for Multiple Tracks....?

HI there,
I am working on a Multiple Camera shoot, Which mean I have a few Video Tracks I'm syncing up to the audio tracks in order to make sure the video is synced up. I need to know if there is a way to open a window for each Video track to play at the same time While I am editing, and allowing me to fade or switch between them without having to split the main picture in order to see them.
If anyone has any Ideas of how this can be done, it will save me a bunch of time looking into the manual for hours.

It's called Multiclip and divides the Viewer into separate simulated monitors.
Lots of info in the manual, now that you know what to look for.

Balancing audio levels for multiple tracks in PP CS6 ...

I have a relatively long home movie (1:50) with clips from multiple cameras dispersed throughout.   One of the camera's audio is far lower than the rest.    What is the easiest/fastest way for a consumer editor to get a reasonable result? Doesn't have to be perfect, but eliminating the need to hold the TV volume button is the goal.   I'm guessing some of you out there have dealt with this issue a few times and can give me a boost.
I've seen some tutorial videos on using the Audio Mixer, but that appears to adjust volume for an entire track.   I suppose an option here is to manually move all of the quieter clips' audio tracks to a different track number and then use the mixer to adjust.   Trial and error I assume to get it right.
Another video I found shows balancing by pulling up clips one by one into Soundbooth and then processing them together. I don't own Soundbooth unless it ships with CS6 and I didn't know to install it. I like the concept though - some way to normalize (if the right term) the volume, although certainly I want some variance so that when someone is shouting or screaming the volume is still higher.
Other videos show adjustments to the volume level by dragging the little yellow volume line on a clip by clip basis inside the track display.   Easy enough, but if I end up deciding I want to make further adjustments I have to go back through all the clips again.   I suppose one advantage here is that those quieter clips sometimes run in batches so could use key frames.
Feedback?

Just closing the loop here ...
I ended up doing the separate track and audio mixer volume adjustment with some individual clip gain tweaks.   Turns out one of my cameras was quiet and another loud, so I used three audio tracks in my movie, one for footage from each camera (luckily the two offenders were more limited).   The nice thing about this approach is that adjustments are easy to make across the board.
On the 6db volume gain, turns out that was enough. Maybe someone has some input here, but I find that watching video on my TV with my surround sound system the volume levels are way more sensitive than my PC.   Ok, not 100% - there were a couple of clips where I upped the gain as well.
The gain adjustment and looking at the waveform diagram is very useful for getting an idea of what level of adjustment is required.   So I did make use of this feature to get feedback on how to adjust the volume level noted above.
If I was really serious, I would have done a bunch of marking key frames and adjusting the volume within the clips.   One of my cameras is really loud when the person filming speaks but the other subjects are much softer. But I took an 80/20 approach and the movie is a little loud in some spots and a little soft in others, but not so much that I have to adjust the volume button. It would be tedious to edit all the footage in this way.   Although I did make use of the key frames for some background music.
Needles: I was looking for a consumer level solution, although admittedly didn't investigate what you suggested.

Can't delete metadata for multiple tracks in iTunes 12

Hi. I have about 20 tracks in iTunes and I want to delete the metadata on all of them at once, something I've done a thousand times on prior versions of iTunes. I select the tracks, hit Apple-I, and make global changes, i.e. deleting all the track numbers or clearing out the composer box, etc. But now, it's not happening. I click into the box, hit Delete, the grey dash will disappear, but when I go to another box, the dash returns and when I leave the Info dialog, the boxes aren't empty.
However, when I do the same thing to the tracks individually, it works.
Is there an extra step that I'm missing, one that's new to iTunes 12?
Thx!

Same issue. The error says not enough space for me -- go to settings to alter. Takes me to storage -- and the video is not listed as using storage!
I have 8 episodes stuck there -- some even play -- but none will swipe to delete. To test I did swipe to delete a video podcast -- no problem. Just my TV Shows seem to be permanent fixtures.
Connected to the computer to see what ITunes showed as installed TV Shows on the device -- nothing there...!!!

Master Levels for multiple tracks on one CD

working on an LP. of course, i would like all songs to be of the same volume/presence. how can i do this. with the little scrub volume marker on the lower right? i always thought it was levels for simply listening, but just realized it must be for the sake of Exporting to iTunes as well, right? i know you can adjust the master vol and master pitch via the track, but what role does the scrub marker in the lower right hand corner play?
thanks!!!

It's exactly what you think it is, it sets the final playing and exported level of the entire mix. To get all songs to sound like they're at a similar level you use the Master volume control with Compression, or limiting with-in GB. Using other software for proper mastering you might likely use a combination of Compression/EQ/Limiting.
Search the web for "Mastering" to learn more.

Cost roll for multiple plants

Hi,
We have multiple plants where production is carried out. I need to make one plant as standard and standard costs in all other plants should reflect the same cost. One way to do that is to manually copy std cost of each material and paste in MM02 of other plant. However can I do these as a mass transaction?
Thanks
SM

HI
Its possible....
Special proc can be defined by PP guys or you can also define as below
1. Go to OMD9
2. Click on New entries: Enter your Plant = Plant 2 (receiver plant) "SP Pr Type" = Z1 and Proc Type = F;
3. Under Special Procurement Secrion
Enter U as special procurement and Plant 1 in the Plant Field (Transferring plant)
4. Save this entry, and in Mat Master of Plant 2, specify F as Proc Type and Z1 as Special proc key
5. Run CK11N in Plant 2... and release from CK24
6. Transfer Variant in Costing variant should allow Cross Plant transfer of Current Cost Estimate
But note that, this should be used only if Production is done in one Plant and Stock transferred to other plants.... IF each plant can manufacture, then the Std cost in other plants should be based on their own BOM + Routing + Overhead rates

Snap in Piano Roll For Making Hip Hop Beats

I'm a complete noob with Logic, I've got my midi controller hooked up. Everything is working. When I try to record a beat. None

I apologize for not being specific enough. When I was writing my question, my MacBook Pro overheated and the keyboard and mouse locked up. I am about to post a question about that. Whenever this thing is running a heavy program and heats up, the NUM LOCK key lights up and the keyboard and mouse stop working. The only options I have after that are to plug in an External Keyboard and Mouse, or restart. Somehow that question was posted without me finishing it. But I am using a MIDI USB controller and I am trying to record hip hop beats using the given loops/samples in the Media Library.

Displaying multiple midi regions in piano roll

I have overdubbed some midi tracks and would like to view and edit them in one window of the piano roll.
The manual says "Ensure that View > Show Selected Regions Only is switched off."
Well for the life of me, I cannot find any option in either view menu (arrange window or piano roll) for "Show Selected Regions Only."
Am I missing something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Not sure if this will help or not, but if you select all the MIDI you have, and then open piano scroll view, all the MIDI will be there. The drag is it is a litle hard identifying one from the other.
I have two Ultrabeat tracks and selected both tracks, then opened Piano Scroll and both were there.
Not sure if that helps or not bro but it is what I have done to address the problem

PBR Multiple Tracking Support information for Cat2960

                  Hello
I have been investigating for PBR multiple tracking support devices specially Catalyst 2960.
The following is very similar to this information. However it can not be applicable to Cat2960.
[PBR Support for Multiple Tracking Options]
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/iproute_pi/configuration/guide/iri_prb_mult_track_external_docbase_0900e4b1810fe379_4container_external_docbase_0900e4b181525fed.html#wp1056119
But feature navigator can show the following information of this feature.
[Feature Navigator for Cat2960]
PBR Support for Multiple Tracking Options
IOS:12.2(55)SE1
Feature-Set:LAB-Base
You can find it by using the research feature and filter by PBR.
So which is correct ?
Basically Cat2960 can not support PBR or there is any related information based on the feature navigator's info.
Any information would be very helpful.
Thank you very much and Best Regards,
Masanobu Hiyoshi

Hello Julio
Thank you for your precious information!
In my understanding it is conclution that the Catalyst 2960 & 2960S series
basically do not support for PBR. So PBR multiple tracking also do not support right?
Here is the output of Cat2960 and 3750X

Why was the link button removed from the piano roll?

Why was the LINK (chain) button removed from the piano roll? This makes Logic X useless to me as I can no longer compose or perform new lines based on previous midi performances. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!

I miss that button too and just filled out the LX Feedback form (Menubar -> Logix Pro X-> Feedback) with the following text. Maybe if you guys did the same, we had a chance revive this essetial feature!!!
thanks!
Sebi
Hi there,
it seems as if the Link Button (Yellow chain symbol) has been removed from the piano roll for no reason. In Score View it is still there.
I (and probably more users) absolutely NEED that Button to decouple the content of the piano roll from the selected track/region AND to use multiple piano roll windows with independent content.
- For transscripting (Mute/Solo Audio regions while editing a Midi-Region)
- For arranging. Edit 2 different midi regions both in separate Piano Roll windows
- For recording. "Reading" Drum-Patterns while recording the Bass e.g.
Please bring that button back or explain why it was removed
Best regards,

Catch video frame in piano roll

I use Logic X to score for TV and Film and a big part of my workflow used to be dragging notes in the piano roll editor to match the picture.
The dragged note used to scroll the video and catch the frame in previous versions, this seems to have disappeared in LPX.
Is there something I haven't checked to enable this?
Thank you,
Simon.

(first attempt:) I can't confirm this. Resizing always as expected.
I also noted that even in your video it is inconsistent. @ 0.42 this odd glitch does not happen.
I just tried it again and "success": I deleted my recorded midi notes and pencilled in one instead, and I can now replicate your bug. It only happens if I try to lengthen the note by moving the left side. All resizing the via grabbing the right side, or shortening via the left side work normally.
my MO: Open a New project, create 1 Software Instrument track (no need to load an actual instrument), pencil in 1 region (two bars long), go to the Piano Roll for that region, open MIDI draw and pencil in some Expression events (MIDI CC 11), then pencil in 1 note and try resizing and moving it.
Another weird bug, this, though luckily it can be worked around easily.
I tried to make this note exactly 3/4 by dragging the left side:
This is the result (it moved with a catterpillarlike motion, like in the vid)
