Recording from turntables into logic?

DJs! or anyone else that knows... i want to record a mix onto my laptop from vinyl turntables. ie about 60 mins worth. is logic stable enough to handle recording straight into it for this long? or can anyone recommend a free recording application to do this. doesn't matter how simple it is as i can edit it after - it just needs to not crash. most of the ones on the net seem to charge which seems crazy because i used to have a decent free one back on OS9!
thanks all...

should be fine..
Just adjust your maximum recording time by hitting "a" (audio/set audio record path)

Latency, Recording incoming Audio into Logic,... I don't understand

I'm trying to clear up my understanding (or misunderstanding) of latency of incoming audio into Logic.
As a test, here's what I did.
Set-Up
1. In Preferences/Audio/General, I set Plug-In delay Compensation to off.
2. In Preferences/Audio/Core I set the I/O Buffer Size to 32 (is this necessary?, to go that low?)
3. In Preferences/Audio/General I turn on the Low Latency Mode On, set Limit to 0ms (Zero Milliseconds)
4. Created a 1/4 note click track with Klopfgeist.
5. Just for reference, I converted to audio. Opened in the sample editor and it is indeed, exactly on the beat.
6. Set up my Roland Fantom as a Midi instrument. Channel 10 to trigger a Side Stick sound.
7. Create another 1/4 note click track.
8. Recorded the Rolands Output into my MOTU 2408 interface into Logic.
9 Opened up the waveform up in the sample editor, zoom in and notice it is obviously late.
10. Move the Anchor point 6 ticks to line it up,
Therefore, the incoming audio is off by 6 ticks.
Is it not possible to get 0 latency? I read the chapter in the manual but I believe this wasn't made clear, i could be wrong.
I have a guitarist coming over to record on my record in a week, I don't know how to deal with this except to move his entire track
by 6 ticks. ?

That is not really the type of latency that's affected by your audio I/O buffer setting. A DAW system has different types of latency, MIDI latency, latency caused by some plugins, AD/DA converter latency..etc. The six tics will probably remain the same or close to it if you're buffer is set to 64, 126, 256...etc.
Why do you have "Low Latency" mode selected, do you know what it's function is?
The I/O buffer setting affects two main aspects.
The response of the system when you play a virtual instrument, and...
...real-time monitoring of an audio input track. (this is an audio signal that passes through Logics audio engine and can use live effects)
The example using the Fantom requires MIDI sent to the keyboard and the audio into the MOTU passes through the AD converter.
What you want to set is the Record Delay so that your audio records in time, however... it needs to be set using a loopback test.
Use a 1/4 note recorded audio click (side stick) that you've adjusted to be perfectly on the beat copy it a few times. Use a cable from the MOTU's output to an open channel's input, record the click, compare.. now adjust the "Recording Delay" until the recorded click matches the first click.
Recording delay is on the Preferences/Audio tab.

Sound from Xiosynth into Logic

Can anyone tell me how to get sound out of Novation Xiosynth into Logic? It works fine as a midi controller, so should I do something in the environment to get it work properly? My audio interface is M-Audio Firewire Audiophile.
G5 2x2Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

In order to get the sound of your external midi keyboard or synth back into logic for mixing you have a couple of choices
an audio input object
or the External plug in
Input Object
create an audio object in your audio Layer of your environment, and in the objects parameter box to the left assign it to be a input object. You can assign Inputs for all of your audio interfaces inputs if you like but assign this one to be whatever inputs your keyboard or synth is connect to, make it mono or stereo your choice. Now on the input objects channel strip, assign the outputs to your main outs going to your speakers. Now you can monitor and mix your synths sound right in logic along with other audio
External Plug-in
you are use to using an audio instrument track to sequence midi to send to Logic’s Instruments (ESX24 etc.). You can also use and instrument track to send midi to your outboard synth as well by using the External plug-in, which is found in the same menu with Logic’s instruments. this only works well when you are planning to use only one of the sounds in your keyboard, but the cool thing is that you can use all of Logic’s cool plug ins like verbs, compressors etc. for your outboard midi synth, just like Logic’s instruments
for further sound shaping of your sounds you may want to record each midi channel separately as audio. Since you already have it connected and are using an input object to monitor, solo the midi track you want to record, assign an audio track to receive the input from the keyboard, record enable it and hit record.

How to import a MP3 file song from iTunes into Logic 9?

How do i import an MP3 music file from iTUNES into a recording project in LOGIC PRO 9?
What type of recording trac needs to be used or enabled? Audio Trac or Software Instrument trac?
I cannot find this task listed in the Apple Pro Training book for Logic 9.
Thank you.

Have you tried simply dragging and dropping the actual audio file using Finder... into the arrange window? Make sure you drop it into either a blank space in the arrange area or onto an Audio track. When you drop the Audio file into a blank area, Logic will automtically create an Audio track for it...
This is how I normally do it without issue...

Recording Reason redrum into logic x directly?

Hi All,
I understand how to rewire synths from reason to logic x but I also understand u cant get redrum midi into logic
could somebody explain to me the easiest way to record my redrum patterns as audio directly into logic so i can see everything in my logic sequencer?
cheers

Hi
If you want to mix stuff within logic: audio files and soft instruments then go to file and choose BOUNCE.
or open your audio environment windows, look for your output fader and there should be a bounce button on the bottom. You can then save your bounce as several file formats or burn a CD (depending on your logic version).
for further information open the help window whithin logic,go to logic reference manual and on the search box type MIXDOWN or Bounce.

Turntable into Logic / make line level

i found my old turntable and records and want to record into logic. i don't have a phono pre amp. something small and not to expensive. also could my ensemble boost the signal of the turntable or do i still need a pre amp. lookin around the studio to see if i have anything else that could work. appreciate your suggestions
thanks

Hi,
i fear that at least a small cheap preamp is better that anything you could do without it. 30-50 Bucks will do and save you a lot of headache. BTW: If you are planning to buy a small analog mixer: Some of them have a built in phono preamp. I got a Soundcraft Compact 4 to record my digipiano, mic and some other things, and even that's only about 100$ and has a good phono preamp.
I also plugged my Macbook directly into my HIFI amp's CDR out, which did the job fairly well. Not elegant, but effective.

Insertion of records from view into a table

hello Friends,
I have a view LGR is build on 12 table,this view has over 1 millon records, now when i run reports based on this view are so much slower, for speeding up reports i create a table LGRT and base all the reports on it, but the problem is that after any chage to the data of the LGR view , I delete all records from LGRT table and reinsert all records from LGR view
delete from lgrt;
insert into lgrt
select *
from lgr
friends its a very long procedure what can i do to minimaze the human work.....
i mean that it should be done automatically.

Hello,
It sounds like you could use a materialised view here to speed things up, also it will save you the hassle of deleting records from the temporary table etc as they offer quite a few synchronisation options. Have a look at the documentation here:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/statements_63a.htm#SQLRF01302
There a quite a few examples toward the bottom of the page.

How Journal Import groups records from GL_INTERFACE into Journal Headers

Hello,
Does anyone know how or using what criteria the Journal Import program groups records from the GL_INTERFACE into Journal Entries?
The R12 User Guide says that :
REFERENCE4 (Journal entry name): Enter a journal entry name for your journal entry.
Journal Import creates a default journal entry name using the following format:
(Category Name) (Currency) (Encumbrance Type ID, if applicable) (Currency
Conversion Rate, if applicable) (Currency Conversion Date, if applicable) (Originating
Balancing Segment Value), chopped to the first 100 characters. If the above results in
multiple journals in the same batch with the same name, then additional characters are
chopped off, and a 2, 3, 4, and so on, is added for the second, third, fourth, journals with
the same name.
Does it mean that for every unique combination of Category+Currency+CurrencyConversion Rate+Currency Conversion Date, a Journal Header would be created? I also found that although not mentioned in the user guide, if the Accounting Date within a group of records is different, the import program includes accounting date to the above criteria and tries to create separate Journal headers per Accounting Date.
Also, is there a way to override this ( Category+Currency+CurrencyConversion Rate+Currency Conversion Date) criteria?
Thanks,
Manish

any suggessions on the above query?
Thanks & regards

Pasting from Sibelius into Logic Pro?

Is it possible to copy a score from Sibelius and into Logic?

Hi Chet,
it's probably hard as Sibelius belongs to Avid (Digidesign- Protools).
peace,
Jorge
Ps: Anyway, I would like it better to import Finale! : ) or dynamics and articulations from the Logic score could change settings... like on those notation programs.

What is the best way to load 14 million COPA records from BW into HANA?

I have been managing a project in which we are attempting to load COPA data from BW into HANA using Open Hub and we continue to run into memory allocation errors in BW. We have been able to load 350,000 records.
Any suggestions on what the best approach would be along with BW memory parameters.
Your replies are appreciated.
Rob

Hello,
this seems to be issue in BW caused by big volume of migrated data. I do not think that this is HANA related problem. I would suggest to post this message into BW area - you might get much better support there.
But to help as much as I can - I found this (see point 7):
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/66/76473c3502e640e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
7. Specify the number of rows per data package for the data records to be extracted. You can use this parameter to control the maximum size of a data package, and hence also how many main memories need to be made available to structure the data package.
Hope it helps.

Can I record vocals directly into Logic Pro X with my Tascam DR 680?

I'm connecting via the USB port on the Tascam. I opened up my "Devices" list under "Preferences" in Logic but it doesn't seem to be registering. I thought there might be a driver out there or some other way to make this work.
If anybody has any suggestions I will be greatly in your debt.
-Josh

Hi Jos, you can't interface the Tascam DR 680 like that (USB) to the Mac I think. It's not an audio interface but a more ore less dedicated stand alone recording/playback unit. You could try importing the audio data into Logic, but as far as direct recording via usb goes….. I don't think so.
A rather clumsy way to achieve your objective, if you must, would be a signal flow like that:
mic -> Tascam DR 680 -> Tascam OUT (digital/analog) -> audio interface / mac (digital/analog) IN -> rec in Logic
Have a nice day!

Recording from minidisc to Logic pro 7 via an fa-66

Hi, I'm having issues recording from a sony minidisc deck through my edirol fa-66 to my macbook. I've tried the various anologue inputs on the fa66, the 1/4 jacks and the RCA inputs on the back. With the anologue it's sounds fine until I arm the track to record, then it starts jumping and phasing. Same with the optical input, I press the "Digital sync" on the fa-66, without the "R" record armed it sounds fine, when I arm it the sound starts jumping and a message comes up "saying sample rate not recognised- Sample rate 3674"
The minidisc was recorded from a PA at I assume the satndard rate for mnidisc players of 4100Khz.

If you are using the Digital input (SPDIF) to record from MiniDisc then you are correct that it is 44.1Khz, but are you ensuring that the SPDIF input is set as the master clock? You will need to ensure that is so whilst you record digitally from it.
I can't fanthom why you might be have a problem recording from the analogue outs though. The phasing sound you describe sounds like you are hearing the original sound plus the slightly delayed sound due to software monitoring perhaps?
