Recording from previous start position

This might be so basic, but is there a key command for recording from previous recording start? I often find myself in a situation where I record something with my keyboard and wanting to do another take from the same song position I started the previous recording. And loop recording is really not an option here because I like to record longer takes and sometimes I'm just simply not happy with my groove and would just like to start quickly all over again... Thanks!

When you have recorded a take and are not happy with it, pressing the record key again (before stopping your recording) will instantly nuke that take and start recording again from the start point.
Also check out the "Record Repeat" key command.

  • Get records from previous day to today

    hi
    i have 1 main table, table A, which has all the data .
    now i have table b which has previous day data and table c which has current data. i need to compare table a(each column)
    to each column in table b and c
    and need to find out rows that has been changed from yesterday to today and send that data.
    table B and table C doesnt have any date which say which date it got changed

    >> I have 1 main table, table A, which has all the data .<<
    What is a “main table”? I never used or heard that term. I am old, so I remember “main” or “master” tape files, however. 
    No table should have all the data in a schema that has more than one relationship in it. Where is the DDL?  
    >> now I have table b which has previous day data and table c which has current data <<
    NO! This design error is called “Attribute splitting” and it usually comes from programmers like you who are using SQL to write 1950's magnetic tape files. Would you have a “Male_Personnel” and a “Female_Personnel”  table or a “Personnel” table? Those
    two absurd tables were split on sex_code, just like you want to split this unknown data on a “<something>_date” attribute. 
    >>  I need to compare table a(each column) to each column in table b and c and need to find out rows that has been changed from yesterday to today and send that data. <<
    No, you need to stop trying to write SQL until you know what you are doing. To track the history of, say, Foobars we need to see time as a continuum and model it as (begin_date, end_date) pairs that define when a foobar had a particular value. Here is the skeleton. 
    CREATE TABLE Foobar_History 
    (foo_id CHAR(9) NOT NULL, 
     start_date DATE NOT NULL, 
     end_date DATE, --null means current 
     CHECK (start_date <= end_date),
     foo_status INTEGER NOT NULL, 
     PRIMARY KEY (foo_id, start_date)); 
    When the end_date is NULL, that state of being is still current. You use a simple query for the status on any particular date;
    SELECT * 
      FROM Foobar
     WHERE @in_cal_date
         BETWEEN start_date
          AND COALESCE (end_date, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP);
    There are more tricks in the DDL to prevent gaps, etc
    CREATE TABLE Events
    (event_id CHAR(10) NOT NULL,
     previous_event_end_date DATE NOT NULL  
     CONSTRAINT Chained_Dates  
      REFERENCES Events (event_end_date), 
     event_start_date DATE NOT NULL,

  • Start position follows playback

    I am new to waveburner (and logic). I am looking for a way to set waveburner so when the transport is stopped, the cursor (start position) returns to the previous start position. In other words, you can start and stop playback repeatedly and the playback always begins from the same location.
    The default behavior is having the start position follow the cursor during playback. I would like to change this...
    Is this possible?
    I know this is an option in both cubase and protools...
    Thanks!
    Zak Cohen - The Woodshop Studio
    www.woodshoprecording.com

    Hi Zak:
    You can probably accomplish this by setting up a loop in Waveburner. (Do a search for Looping Playback in the WaveBurner manual). Loops can, according to the manual, be set up as follows:
    To define a cycle area
    In either time ruler, drag from the desired loop start position to the point where you want
    looping to end.
    Drag either of the cycle area handles to resize an existing cycle area.
    You can also grab the center of the cycle area to move it, without changing the cycle
    length.
    That said, this used to work for me, but no longer does. I am going to post a message to that effect and find out if anyone has a solution.

  • MDX to fetch record from 1st of current month to 5th of next month and same for previous year

    In my date dimension I have a attribute CalendarDate. I do have a hierarchy [Date].[Year].[Quarter].[Month].[CalendarDate] as well. I need to fetch data starting from 1st working day of current month to 5th working day of next month by MDX. I do have a attribute
    to filter working day as IsWorkingDay. How can we get a dynamic MDX that will find the current month first and than it will filter the record from 1st working day of current month to 5th working day of next month. And same for the previous year same month
    to compare.
    Thanks in advance!
    Palash

    Hi P,
    You can use a calculated member to dynamically add all the days in the current month and the first 5 in the following month.  You will need to change measure, cube and hierarchy names.
    with member measures.ThisMonthAnd5 as 
    sum([Date].[Year].parent.children,Measures.[Sales])
    +sum(Head([Date].[Year].parent.nextmember.children,5),Measures.[Sales])
    select 
    {Measures.[Sales]
    ,Measures.ThisMonthAnd5
    } on 0,
    non empty [Date].[Year].[CalendarDate]  
    on 1

  • Recording a show after it starts.. you only get a recording from that spot...not the beginning

     (as it says on page 19 of User Guide)
    I fear I have made a major mistake switching from Direct TV... this feature worked flawlessly on their DVR (to which I had a 1TB external drive attached) .     I may eat the $400 termination fee and go back..  I think a week on FIOS is about all I can stan.

    Your 100% correct, Direct TV can only record the entire live program if you were already tuned to it, not if you just change to it. I never said that Direct TV could do that and Direct TV never says or implies that either.  Verizon on the other hand explains it this way...verbatim from page 19 of the Verizon FiOS user guide:
    "HERES HOW TO RECORD LIVE TV
    To record a show that's currently playing:
    o Press the REC button on the remote
    Got to the show late? No Problem: If you start recording after the show has started, the DVR will actually record the show from the beginning. So you'll have it all.
    To schedule recording of an upcoming program........"
    The limitation with Direct TV is obviously because it automatically is buffering channel feed, usually as long as the last couple of hours.... you can even go back and record the previous show if its in that window.  By a sat feed.
    Verizon has a fat fiber-optic cable pipe plugged into my house carrying internet, phone and tv with room to spare. Sadly,  I am not the genius you obviously are, Mr. Faraday,  so I'm not certain that Verizon doesn't do something like buffer this stuff on their end and then push it down the pipe to me if I want to see it from the beginning.   Would be an easy qualification in the manual don't ya think? You know ".....Got to the show late? No Problem, as long as you are have been tuned that channel....... "        
    Oh wait... this is the same company who matter-of-factly told me caller id would work on my tv, all I had to do was enable it.    Kewl.. I enabled it.   Nuthin.  Called support. Told me it takes 24-48 hours to kick-in.  No prob.  I can wait. Couple days later.. still nothing, called support back.  This time got someone who knew something and they informed me that you need Verizon's Call Assistant and Visual Mailbox for on-screen caller id to work.  Evidently only Verizon, well at least some in Verizon, know  this little tidbit.  (as I'm certain you do as well, von Goethe) Dummy Me, I didn't know that.  Gosh.. maybe a couple lines in a manual or on screen....you know for us nitwits.... would that kill them?  
    So you are correct, Mr. Wittgenstein, I am a **bleep**. I'm a Verizon customer aren't I?

  • Current day "shift starts from previous day" night 23:00 hours

    Hi Experts,
    I have a challenging scenario in Positive Time Management which is current day 1st shift time starts from previous day 23:00 hours (eg: previous day 23:00 to 07:00 current day).
    As per my knowledge in SAP Time Management, Shift start time is considered as current day, but for my scenario Shift End time has to consider as a current day.
    I couldnu2019t brought this shift forward to as 3rd shift because Production Incentives amounts and public holidays are computing based on previous day 23:00 hours.
    Points will be awarded for helpful solution.
    Regards
    Raju

    While you create a recod in the IT 2011 as you give
    next field you wil be having a field for previous day option if you choose that
    p20 for out time
    ex: 7:00 am i.e next day but still it will count for the current day
    Best Regards

  • Firefox hangs at start. A new profile with a copy of my bookmarks and other files, from previous profile starts OK. At next start I have to setup a new profile. Since June 2010 in Ubuntu, with automatic update.

    Hi,
    My firefox-profiles in Ubuntu, are practically one-timers.
    Next time i want to use firefox it hangs at start. The window comes up
    and it's white, except for a square in upper left corner (without color).
    I'm having this problem since June 2010, when I started using an electronic ID,
    for access to Swedish goverment organisations. The Electronic ID (BnakID) is
    supported in Windows, Mac and Ubuntu. I had a new installation of Ubuntu, in a
    virtual machine at that time.
    I can't say that this is a problem with Firefox in Ubuntu or some other
    combination, I'm a newbie with Ubuntu and BankID.
    I've used been using Firefox and installing (Firebird, Mozilla) since 2001,
    in other OS:es than Ubuntu (Solaris, RedHat, Windows and SLED).
    My workaround are:
    - cd ~/.mozilla/firefox
    - mv profiles.ini profiles.ini-
    - Start and stop firefox
    - Copy some files from previous profile, to the new.
    cd <previous>.default
    cp -r bookmark* cert8.db content-prefs.sqlite cookies.sqlite* \
    extensions* places.sqlite* prefs.js sessionstore.* signons.sqlite* \
    ../<new>.default/
    - Start firefox
    My environment:

    Try the fix posted by houseboats in this discussion: spinning beachball suddenly every time at launch. Other users have reported that it fixed their problem which is similar to yours, good with airport off, freeze with airport on. 
    The only problem I had with the fix was that it killed the name I gave my computer in the System/Sharing preference pane.  So if you use it go to that pane and rename your computer as it was originally.

  • How do i copy files from my macbook pro to my hard drive? These files were previously started on my old dell.

    how do i copy files from my macbook pro to my hard drive? These files were previously started on my old dell.

    More then likely that external drive is formatted the Windows NTFS format which Mac OS X can Read but it can not Write to that format. So you would need to copy all the data off that drive, to either a Windows PC or to your Mac, thenn use the Mac to format it for the Mac OS. Which would be Mac Extended (Journaled) with a Partition Table of GUID.
    If you want to use that drive on both Mac and PC then you would need to format it either FAT32 or exFAT.

  • Is it possible to start a recording from source code?

    Hi everybody!
    I'm currently using JProfiler in combination with JUnit tests to collect resource consumption metrics of features in our product.
    A homemade JUnit runner starts and stops the JProfiler recording and parses the recorded data. It then compares the recorded values to predefined limits and fails the test if they are exceeded.
    Now I want to change this to use the flight recorder instead. I found a nice article explaining how to parse .jfr files here: Using the Flight Recorder Parsers | Marcus Hirt
    Unfortunately I can't figure out how to start and stop a flight recording from a JUnit runner besides using the jcmd tool.
    Can anybody help me out?
    Thanks a lot
    Tobias

    Answering myself once more since other people might stumble upon the same problem.
    In the end I created a TestRule which I can add to the JUnit Test Class.
    The interesting parts of the code are:
    public class ProfilerTest implements TestRule {
        @Override
        public Statement apply(Statement base, Description description) {
            return new PerformanceLimitsStatement(base, description);
        class PerformanceLimitsStatement extends Statement {
            private PublicFlightRecorderRunner runner;
            private final Description description;
            private final Statement base;
            public PerformanceLimitsStatement(Statement baseParam, Description descriptionParam) {
                description = descriptionParam;
                base = baseParam;
            @Override
            public void evaluate() throws Throwable {
                runner = new FlightRecorderRunner(description.getTestClass());
              // start profiling
                runner.startupProfiling("jfr/"+description.getTestClass().getSimpleName()+"."+description.getMethodName()+".jfr", annotation.cpuRecording(), annotation.allocRecording(), annotation.methodStatsRecording(), annotation.monitorRecording(),
                        annotation.threadProfiling());
                // run a test method including its before and after methods inside a simple time measurement
                base.evaluate();
                // shutdown profiling
                final File performanceSnapshot = runner.shutdownProfiling(description);
    This uses a PublicFlightRecorderRunner - code:

                ms.invoke(recordingObjectName, STOP_RECORDING_OPERATION, new Object[0], new String[0]);
            // close the recording to remove it from the flightrecorder
            ms.invoke(recordingObjectName, CLOSE_RECORDING_OPERATION, new Object[0], new String[0]);
    This creates a .jfr file which can be used later.
    I parse it in the TestRule to determine if the test violated memory or time limits, in which case the test is failed. (see the link in my first post for information about parsing .jfr files)
    The code may not be the prettiest but so far it's working well.

  • Utl_file how to start reading from a certain position?

    Hi all,
    i'm currently using utl_file to read a text file and import to db. i have managed to do it. however i would like to avoid reading the first line as it is the header. i would also like to avoid the last line as it is the footer.
    how do i use the function of get line to start reading at a certain position? i am also able to get the length but i do not know how to make it start reading from a certain position.
    the length of the first line will always be 9 and length for the last line would be 51.
    here's my code so far:
    set serveroutput on
    declare
    vSFile   utl_file.file_type;
    vNewLine VARCHAR2(4000);
    file_name VARCHAR2(200) := 'read.txt';
    v_exist     BOOLEAN;
    v_length number;
    blocksize   NUMBER;
    temp_value varchar2 (4000);
    BEGIN
      vSFile := utl_file.fopen('MYDIR', file_name,'r');
      IF utl_file.is_open(vSFile) THEN
        LOOP
          BEGIN
            utl_file.get_line(vSFile, vNewLine);
            IF vNewLine IS NULL THEN
              EXIT;
            END IF;
          EXCEPTION
            WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
              EXIT;
          END;
        END LOOP;
        UTL_FILE.FGETATTR('MYDIR',file_name,v_exist,v_length,blocksize);
        dbms_output.put_line(v_length);
        COMMIT;
      END IF;
      utl_file.fclose(vSFile);
    END read_demo;

    Hi,
    utl_file has an fseek procedure for moving the file pointer around in a file, either absolute or relative number of bytes.
    It's in the documentation, I'm surprised you didn't see it there when you looked before going to the hassle of asking us a question.

  • Restored via iCloud but when plugged in laptop asks me to restore from previous or start as new phone

    SSo when in Apple store they re stored my iPhone via iCloud but now I want to put music on to it but when I plug it in it asks me to either start as new phone or restore from previous(which I don't want to do)

    I have a very similar problem.
    My new iPhone 5 won't let me in at all. It asks the same questions as you have, wanting to set up as new or from Backup, and I choose From Backup.  Then we just go round and round in circles; the iPhone insists on synchronising with iTunes over and over and over again even when it's just finished.
    I connected the new iPhone 5s to iTunes and it appeared to Sync. According to iTunes my new iPhone now contains the music, and apps that my old iPhone 3G had had previously. iTunes indicated  that the phone was about a third full of music and stuff. 
    If I press the button on the iPhone, while connected to iTunes, the iPhone  asks my country etc, I get to choose whether to restore or start as new. Choose Restore and it wants to connect to iTunes (again). I can Sync again but I still can't get further forward.
    If I disconnect the iPhone before pressing its button, I get Hello and then it says to connect to iTunes (again). I plug it into my laptop, iTunes finds it , backs it up again, and I can sync it or restore it again as often as I like.
    I'm going to see if I can choose Restore Backup (? a stupid oxymoron, Restore Backup indded; I assume it means restore FROM backup otherwise we're in trouble). Then I'll look for anearlier backup as sberman suggests. What sberan says certainly makes sense.

  • Start Position When Printing Labels from Contacts

    I'm trying to print addresses to a half-used sheet of mailing labels using Contacts, but the app only lets me start with the Column 1, Row 1 position.  Is there a way to start printing from some other position on the sheet?

    You are welcome. What I used to do when faced with this problem was either move the labels to the top or reverse the way the labels were feed into the printer.
