Reason preference settings for use in GB and GB settings

Hello again everyone , first my apologies to anyone not wanting to see another Reason question but i am trying to get my settings right in both so i can record my reason stuff into GB . I am so far thinking that i need my Generator setting in GB set to : AU NET RECEIVE ( ??? ) The Reason preference's under advanced MIDI are also ??? but under External Control in Reason , i need to know for Bus A , B , C , D which to have set at my : Kontrol 49 MIDI IN and which of the A,B,C,D BUS's to have set for : KONTROL 49 PORT A and/or KONTROL 49 PORT B . Thankyou much and i hope you all have a great rest of the day : ) Steve

Harm> Good question. In my case it's for a handful of reasons:
I don't know any better.
Have a customer requirement to hand them trimmed footage (They just want the highlights not everything that was originally shot).
They want the trimmed footage in as lossless a format as they can get that's still editable convienently on a mac book.
The original footage is 1920x1080 24mb/sec AVC @ 60i (29.97fps)
They suggested ProRes (not possble at all on a PC to my knowledge). Or DVCPRO HD. Which is technically possible but ends up matting the footage due to DVCPRO HD not supporting the resolutions the camera originally shot in.
I've seen you post quite a lot around here and it seems like you've been using the Adobe suite for a while.
I've only been doing this for a year. Got any tricks or tips to help out a noob wanting to learn how to do it right?
Googling I found tons of tutorials/videos/etc on going FCP -> PP. Next to zero on going the other way. Most things I did find claim it's not possible which strikes me as a cop out answer.
I have an i7 975 3.3ghz quad core so rendering times aren't too bad. (just under two hours for 3 minutes of video). What I have resorted to is rendering the same project out in every single codec I have and trying to load it in FCP to see which looks best.
As you can imagine this is getting pretty tiring.

  • Proper setup for using two computers and backup drives?

    I've just purchased Aperture 3 and want to fix a longstanding problem I've had with my workflow and setup in Lightroom. I've got an iMac and a MBP and what I'd like to do is use the iMac as my main computer for Aperture. My plan is to import my existing files into Aperture and copy them to an external (non-portable) hard drive for back-up purposes. Based on this, I'd have two copies of each file, one each on the iMac and the back-up drive, right?
    I also use my MBP for a lot of photo editing work while on the road, but don't have a lot of drive space on it. I've bought a 750GB hard drive and I'd like to have the Library on this drive as well for use on the MBP. I know this would give me three copies of each file, but it would also give me some peace of mind in the event I somehow lost the info on the 750GB drive. I don't want copies of the images on the MBP directly as I don't have enough space.
    Can this setup be "easily" done and if I make a change in an image on one computer will it be synchronized between the two computers and the two external hard drives? I guess in plain English, what I'd like to achieve is the ability to work on either computer and have the most recent versions synchronize when I attach the 750GB drive to the iMac, with the non-portable external drive as the back-up for the synchronized Library.
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Kevin

    No, vaults only look after a managed library. A referenced library has to be backed up manually.
    There are a few reasons i prefer to use a referenced set up. I use a MBPro on the road for long periods and sometimes high volumes of large image files, so the limited capacity HD is no longer a problem.
    Aperture does not slow down with a referenced library as the HD fills.
    The Vaults cannot be accessed like manual back ups can, there is no way of knowing what is in there, you hope it is your entire Aperture library.
    With manual project backup you have a more manageable size that is much more versatile, and is viewable because of its smaller size. You can delete stuff and then restore it from the backup.
    It is safer in my opinion to not have all the library in a single library folder. Much safer split up by project.
    When i did use a managed library and Vaults there were times when i wanted stuff off the Aperture library but still kept in the vault, which was not possible.

  • Ripping Cd's for use with iTunes AND DJ Software

    Hello, I have a lot of CD's I want to rip into my MAC. I want to store them on my external hard drive attached to my Time Capsule. I use iTunes, but here is the problem. I also use my MB Pro to DJ, and disconnect my external hard drive from the Time Capsule and take it with me (it has my music on it). How can I use both iTunes and my DJ software? Does iTunes rip the songs into a file that I can also use without iTunes playing it (in other words, a plain old mp3 or mp4?) Anyone have a best practices to pass along? Thanks!

    Welcome to the forums DJEJay
    in other words, a plain old mp3 or mp4?
    Yes, in your Preferences > Importing, choose whichever format you want the music to be in - e.g. MP3 if you prefer - plus the bitrate you want it at. (This also works for converting tracks you already have in your iTunes Library - from the ADvanced menu).
    Does iTunes rip the songs into a file that I can also use without iTunes playing it
    Yes - all the tracks will be in the iTunes > Tunes Music folder on the drive (making sure you point iTunes to this drive the first time you run it), organised in separate folders by artist albums or Compilations. These all play in Finder Preview, and I assume can be read by your DJ software / hardware.
    One word of warning - don't interfere with the folder structure or move files around or rename them or anything, as iTunes might get very confused next time you launch it.

  • Switching to AT&T Cingular - best phone for use with Mac and iSync

    Dear Friends,
    I am finally about to be free from Sprint's poor customer service. I will be switching to AT&T / Cingular. (Not quite ready to buy an iPhone, but don't want to be locked into a 2 year contract with another provider).
    I want to use Apple's iSync. I have reviewed the list of compatible devices and scanned the forums for related topics.
    I'm still left wondering:
    What is the best phone to get with AT&T for use with iSync?
    I would like to sync contacts both ways. If possible, syncing cal events and to-dos would be nice, but not as important as contacts.
    I prefer small flip phones. I don't plan to buy the Media pack service that includes text, web, etc. Instead, I will use the phone for calls and occassional text messages.
    Sound quality and the ease of use are the most important features for me. I prefer raised keys to the flat keypads, but could give on this if need be.
    Finally, using the phone as a modem with my laptop would be nice, but is not essential.
    Thanks so much for any help you can offer.
    David

    I am facing the exact same question regarding, e.g., the Nokia 6126. There are several references:
    1. Go to the Nova Media web site and look at their new product, Fone Link. Or their iSynch Plugins
    2. One of the forum threads references, http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060915154526806
    3. Another link I found http://soapbox.co.nz/past/2007/4/9/nokia-6126-and-isync-revisited/
    But what I don't yet understand is whether or not any of these suggestions/solutions are affected by the carrier. My understanding is that the 6126 is the North America Version of the 6131. But I talked to ATT/Cingular support yesterday and they make some modifications to the phone software. They don't know if the ATT 6126 will synch with a Mac. Of course they know the answer if synching with a PC (!!)

  • 1 hd with 2 file formats for use between mac and windows?

    Think this is the right forum...
    I want to instal a program onto an external hard drive for use on both mac and windows. The program supports both mac and windows.
    My plan is to get an external hd and partition it in half. One half i will format mac os extended and the other i will format ntfs. I'll instal the mac version on the mac partition and the windows version on the ntfs partition.
    This should work i'm thinking, yes? I.e. when i plug it into windows it'll run the windows installation no problem and when i plug it into the mac it'll run the mac installation no problem?
    Thanks.

    An easier solution might be to just connect the drive to a Windows PC and format it as FAT32. Both Windows (98 and higher) as well as Mac allow full read/write access to FAT32 formatted drives. No need to download any drivers, etc. It just works.
    Yes, this solution is not perfect, but none are. The free NTFS drivers for Mac are not most efficient drivers for speed/performance, the HFS+ drivers for Windows are not cheap, and have their own performance issues, and FAT32 has the limit of file sizes over 2GB (or is it 4GB now?) not supported. No one solution is perfect, but for the many one is better than the others, but it all depends upon their circumstances which is "better".

  • Restrictions for using sql commands and operators in loader control file

    Hi ,
    It suppose that there is a lot of restrictions and limitations when using sql commands and operators in the loader control files, same as it seems I cannot use (or) when with case statement, also it seems there is certain length for the case,
    So guys, what are the common limitations and restrictions to be avoided in the loader control file ?
    Your efforts are highly appreciated
    Ash

    Hi Ash,
    if you need to do more complicated logic its better to define the file to be loaded as an external table. You can then use any sql function you like against the external table rather than messing around with what you can and can;t do in a sqlldr control file.
    You can use the external_table option of sqldr to generate the definition.
    Regards,

  • Exporting HD video for use on AppleTV and iPod

    I use a Canon HV30 HD camcorder. Work in FCE. Also have QTPro. I typically export from FCE as a pure .MOV file, then do my conversions to other formats in QTPro.
    To get good quality on my Apple TV, I use QTPro to export to Apple TV. But then that video won't transfer to my iPod Touch, so I have to do another export with QTPro with iPod as my target.
    Is there a happy medium that will show good results on the AppleTV and iPod? Obviously this can be done with standard def video because iTunes videos look fine on both. I think the HD is what's getting me.
    Thanks.

    I would also like to have this question answered...
    Additionally,
    Is there a way to combine the SD and HD files similar to when you download a movie from itunes how there is one file entry in iTunes for both the SD and HD version. Also I noticed movies and TV you download from iTunes can transfer to your Ipod (even though they are over the ipod specs 320x240). Is there a way to export videos larger than 320x240 and can transfer to the Ipod.
    Thank you in advance...

  • Problems Installing FFMpegX for use with QuickTime and other software

    Okay I don't know whether I should be posting this here or under the board for Using Mac OS X Panther and earlier operating systems but I used to have the FFMpegX video and audio conversion software installed on my Mac an Apple 12' PowerBook G4 but recently had a system OS reinstall when my hard disk became defective and I was unable to make repairs.
    I backed up all my files but of course I couldn't back up the software I had downloaded. Was fortunately able to redownload some of my apps but this is a case where an app of mine I want back won't come back.
    I download the installer and it fails to mount the disk image even on my desktop. I am running Mac OS 10.3.9 Panther -- I tried searching for an older version of ffmpegX I could download but that didn't work either. Since when is ffmpegX shareware? When I used it the software was freeware.
    Anyways, it is such an essential program foir me that I would pay the fee just to get it back but I can't even download the trial software to begin with. I have tried downloading from the main website www.ffmpegX.com and a few other links I found on Google but to no alas none have seemed to work.
    I have plenty of videos I like to encode and re-encode from time to time using my Mac from VOB 2 .DAT 2 AVI 2 MPEG 2 M4V (iPod format) 2 WMV 2 MOV etc and vice versa using Divx and XviD codecs I NEED FFMPEGX what can I do?
    I have Mac OS 10.3.9 Panther with QuickTime 7.1.2, iTunes 6.0.5 the Apple Security Update 2006-003, Virex 7.2 virus protection software and Microsoft Office X with the latest patches for that software product and VLC Media Player. I need FFmpegX and/or (in either case actually drop the or) software for Mac OS X that allows users to convert video .DAT files from VCD to AVI.
    I have Divx codec for Mac and 3ivx software with Divx Doctor II -- an AVI 2 MOV video conversion software + D Vision 3 also installed. I currently have installed Safari 1.3.2 also.
    Any suggestions! Please help any way possible. I just have to get FFmegX working again.

    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html (free).
    http://apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2 ($20). Needed for MPEG-2 conversions.

  • USB external portable HD for use with FCE and MBP ???????

    I've seen a 120 GB USB portable external Seagate HD for $117. Would this be usable as a scratch disk for use with my MBP 2.0 and final cut express HD 3.5. Are there problems with using USB externals? FW external hd's seem to be a good deal more expensive.
    Thanks.
    Maurice

    I bought one recently very cheaply to use for general storage.
    I found that FCE 3.0 worked perfectly and have been using it ever since instead of my FW HD.
    HOWEVER, before you dash out and buy one take note that I have only been tinkering around and experimenting with comparatively short projects of no importance.
    I strongly suspect that if I made a long and complicated film I might suffer - so pay the extra and get a FW HD !
    Incidentally for normal storage purposes the USB2 HD takes over twice the time to move files back and forth. So even for non-FCE use the Firewire HD is twice as fast.

  • How do i configure outlook for use with icloud and my iphone?

    I am at a loss at how to configure my outlook 2007 for the best synch and use with my icloud and or iphone. Any help out there?

    You can't write to it because it's formatted as NTFS which OS X will read but not write to. If you want to continue using the drive with both a PC and OS X you will need to download and install NTFS-3G so you can then write to it from your Mac. You can get NTFS-3G at:
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g
    If you want to use the drive exclusively with your Mac then move the data off it and reformat it in Disk Utility (Applications - Utilities - Disk Utilities) as Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)

  • In options, the selection for "use my windows and tabs from yesterday" is Dimmed I want to know why?

    I cannot set , in options, use my window and tabs from yesterday, because it is dimmed! I haven't been able to find why it would be dimmed.
    I keep 5 tabs open all the time & it is becoming a pain to have to reset them all from bookmarks every time firefox is closed & reopened. just because I cannot set it to do that in options, because the selection is dimmed in options

    Because you probably are using private navigation, go to Tool >>Privacy >>in the option Firefox will: change to Remember History, now you can change that option "When Firefox Start" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

  • Options for using iPhone 3G and Hotmail Outlook Connector to sync contacts?

    I reviewed some posts on this topic and searched other forums, but still have yet to see a real solution to this problem.
    I am using Win XP and Outlook 2003 with the Hotmail Outlook Connector to manage my Hotmail account. My default calendar and contacts DB in Outlook is located in the same mailstore as the Hotmail data. This is not POP or IMAP as unfortunately Hotmail requires it's own protocol (Outlook Connector) to manage the email account.
    Also Hotmail will NOT allow any creation of a .pst or data file to store data that may be synced with a 3rd party device.
    Can someone please assist me with finding a solution so that I can continue to use my Hotmail account, with Outlook 2003 and simply synch my default calenday and contacts data with my iPhone.
    Note: I had a client with a similar issue using an HTTP/RPC Exchange mailbox and also an IMAP GMail connection in the same Outlook client. We simply made the Exchange account default and stored all contacts/calendar data there. The iphone synchs this data perfectly and the client and iPhone utilize both mailboxes perfectly.
    Outlook Express is not an options for me. Thanks for helping.

    Nothing? Anyone?
