Recording a radio show with Garageband '09

Hi guys,
I am looking to move into the Garageband world now that I have just purchased a brand new iMac.
My main purpose for Garageband would be to import audio and record my voice as a talk over for a radio show.
I can see there is the built-in ducking which is fantastic as that immediately would make my process alot easier.
I am just not sure about the recording aspect in terms of real-time.
For a live radio show usually a piece of music would play and the radio announcer would voice over it.
This is what I would like to do however I am not sure if Garageband does this in real-time or not?
I have a Rode Podcaster mic which I'm sure will be easily recognised and used within Garageband also.
Anyone who has any experience or knowledge with this particular scenario, I would love to hear from you!
Much appreciate your assistance and feedback
Cheers

Thanks HangTime,
I knew I would need to do the import of audio and record voice.
Just more concerned about the real-time recording eg. does the ducking occur should a song be playing live and I do a voice over, all whilst recording.

A script to record radio shows with mplayer

Hi,
I have the tendency of missing all my favorite radio shows so I wrote this little script I can now use as a cron job. Basically it uses mplayer to dump the stream, and kills it after desired time. I'm not posting this to community contributions (yet), since it's far from fail safe. I don't have much time to put into it, and it works for me as it it, but if you find it useful and want to help improving it, please do so!! I really could use some help checking the passed command line arguments, I haven't done these before.
My cron job is starting a couple of minutes before the actual broadcast and I set the length so that the recording continues a couple of minutes after the end time. After it's all done, I use mp3splt to cut the extras. ..that's of course if the stream is an mp3.. Don't know if there's a splitting utility for oggs?
And the script:
#!/bin/sh
# usage:
# stream_dump.sh -u URL -l length -d directory -o filename -t filetype -i
# -u stream URL or a path to a playlist file (.pls, m3u..)
# -l lenght in sleep format, see sleep --help (use quotes if more than one arg!)
# -o base name of recorded file
# -d directory to save the file in
# -t filetype (mp3, ogg, wma ..)
# -i ignore postfix, see POSTFIX below
# Set some defaults
DUMPDIR="/path/to/your/dir"
LENGTH=60m
FILE=StreamDump
FILETYPE=mp3
POSTFIX=_`date +%y-%m-%d_%H:%M`
# Begin script
while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do
case "$1" in
-u)
STREAM="$2"
shift
-l)
LENGTH="$2"
shift
-o)
FILE="$2"
shift
-t)
FILETYPE=".$2"
shift
-d)
DUMPDIR="$2"
shift
-i)
POSTFIX=""
esac
shift
done
[ ! -d "${DUMPDIR}" ] && mkdir -p "${DUMPDIR}"
DUMPFILE="${DUMPDIR}/${FILE}${POSTFIX}${FILETYPE}"
mplayer -quiet -dumpstream -playlist "${STREAM}" \
-dumpfile "${DUMPFILE}" &
PID="$!"
sleep "${LENGTH}"
kill "${PID}"
# End script
Comments, improvements and anything else accepted!

mp3splt can work on mp3 files as well as ogg files.
Option parsing can be done alternatively with the 'getopts' shell builtin or getopt(1).
Using atd may be more convenient (for a non-recurring action) than setting up a cronjob.
Mplayer has an option '-endpos' (not sure if it works on streams):
-endpos <[[hh:]mm:]ss[.ms]|size[b|kb|mb]> (also see -ss and -sb)
Stop at given time or byte position.
NOTE: Byte position may not be accurate, as it can only stop
at a frame boundary. When used in conjunction with -ss option,
-endpos time will shift forward by seconds specified with -ss.
EXAMPLE:
-endpos 56
Stop at 56 seconds.
-endpos 01:10:00
Stop at 1 hour 10 minutes.
-ss 10 -endpos 56
Stop at 1 minute 6 seconds.
-endpos 100mb
Encode only 100 MB.

Recording radio show style voice over music

Hi guys,
I am looking to host a new radio show and have already put together a few shows.
I now have Logic 9 and a Rode Podcaster mic.
I am trying to work out how I can record my voice and have the music volume drop down in level as I speak.
The exact same way as a "talk-over" would work on a mixer i.e.
1. radio dj/announcer speaks
2. music level fades out
3. radio dj/announcer finishes talking
4. music level fades back in to normal level
Any info or feedback would be much appreciated
Cheers

Christian
Yes I did try it and it worked fine however this was done using a PRE-RECORDED voice over and music.
I was wondering if this method would work if I this was done live i.e. playing music on one channel and voice over on another.
The same way a radio station would work where music would play and the dj would speak over the top, all live - in real time.
Cheers

Recording an online radio show

At my school we have a radio show that one can listen to online with Apple's Quicktime (though I swear we can also listen to it through iTunes, but I'm getting that information off the website) and I am looking for a way to record my show. I do know that I can use garage band and record what I say and then put the music in there afterwards, but that would be rather tiresome and a length process (in my point of view) and I was wondering if there was a program I could download or that was already on the macbook that would allow me to download a streaming radio station online.
thanks!

Audio Hijack or RaddioLover will work.

How to record internet radio for free?

I have a macbook pro, and I would like to program the macbook to record a short radio show everyday for 5 min. And listen to it when I am free.
Right now I am using the
1. energy saver schedule to program the macbook boot at 7:20am everyday.
2. on the users and group, login item I added chrome & audacity to start
3. I set the default page on chrome to am1430.com/live/pop_live1430.php
4. get the driver call soundflower to redircet the input and output audio link to audacity
5. set the audacity input and output to soundflower 2ch
6. set the audacity transport timer recording to the start time and duration
7. once it is done can export and save the audio to mp3.
But my question is? is there a better way to do this. Any free app can do that?
Can automator be able to do all this?
what is the worst case that if I really want to use this as my first program to write something, what is a good starter to do something like this
thanks.

Do you have the output set correctly in "Sound" system preference? Is muting off? Do other sound files play?

CD "radio show" with tracks

I would like to create a "radio show" of about an hours duration with talk and music. I'd like to burn it to a CD with tracks to let the listener skip to favorite bits, or over bad bits! What I would like to do is take one big podcast and save pieces of it in iTunes as separately named "songs."
First, I tried creating a podcast and the format was fine, but I couldn't segment it into CD tracks. I tried using the cycle button to limit a selection, but if I export to iTunes, GarageBand exports the entire podcast.
I could record each CD track as a separate podcast.
Other ideas?

Thanks, Larry, for your comment. Although I've been using Macs for 20 years I'm still surprise myself my missing the obvious.
I'll investigate the difference between a "podcast" and a "regular" project.
It bugged me a little that I didn't get a dialog box that said "Do you want to export just this portion of your podcast?"
With some planning I could create my podcast, rather, CD cast as a series of segments, all recorded separately. However, for continuity's sake I wanted to record the whole thing, then break it into different tracks for a CD.
There may be better ways to achieve what I want to do than by podcast, although the podcast setup looked ideal in terms of voice-overs, music and jingles.
Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!

Software to copy radio shows?

Am looking for software that allows me to capture the radio stream of certain radio shows I am interested in copying....
thoughts?

Rory--I use, and highly recommend, Audio Hijack and Audio Hijack Pro by Rogue Amoeba. Audio Hijack will record to AIFF format, which can then be imported into iTunes and converted to other formats. It works great for me.
Audio Hijack Pro adds even more features for people who do this more frequently, or who need more control. You can record, for example, not just to AIFF, but to MP3, AAC, Apple Lossless, and using any number of bit rates and other settings.
Now, as to the issue of getting things you record to show up in the Podcast source, I'd suggest to look at the following thread:

I have 2 ipods,one for music and the other for old time radio shows.Each had their own file.My computer crashed and I had to buy a new one.Now both ipod files are merged into one.How do I seperate them.

I have 2 ipods,one for music and the other for old time radio shows.Each had their own file.My computer crashed and I had to buy a new one.Now both ipod files are merged into one.How do I seperate them on the computer?

Hi Craig
Unfortunately, in your case, there isn't really a way to separate them as far as I can think.
You could try restoring from a backup, and choosing an older backup perhaps
Cheers

HT1688 I have a honda civic with USB port which allows play back of my old iPhone 4 and 4s. With the new iPhone 5 the radio shows the phone is conected but does not show any music content.

I have a honda civic with USB port which allows play back of my old iPhone 4 and 4s. With the new iPhone 5 the radio shows the phone is conected but does not show any music content. Any Suggestions?

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

How do I delete radio shows from iTunes and my iPod at the same time?

I have a lot of old time radio shows on my iPod. First, I copy them from iTunes to listen to on my iPod. When I am done, I want to delete BOTH of them at the same time. I am trying to avoid having to search for both because, for some reason, I cannot search both the iTunes and the iPod content at the same time. I obviously do not want them synced. In the previous version of iTunes, I was able to do with a key command. Now, I cannot figure out how to do it. ( I really wish there was a way I could color each selection so that I can find which ones I copied to the iPod easily. You know, just like how it's done in the operating system, where we can add the color label.)
Anyway, is there a way to do what I want, or am I stuck with searching separately, and then deleting them separately? Laborious indeed. Oh, yes, the duplicate function doesn't work here because you can't search both the iPod and iTunes at the same time.
Thanks in advance to all you smartie-pants out there.

when you purchas e a tv show from the itunes music store and then sync it to the ipod. there will appear a new name in th evideo subsection of videos on the ipod called tv shows thats where they will be and where you can watch the,.

SE54 - Recording Routine Radio Button - Transport Question

Greetings!
We have an issue in our development system where in T-Code SE54 the Recording Routine radio button selection was changed for a particular table so it's affecting one of our custom transactions.
We are looking to change the setting but there is some uncertainty around if anything else needs to be done. Is it just a change of the radio button setting and then transporting to our QA environment or would there be any additional steps involved (activation, etc)?
I appreciate it!
Wendy

NM, don't need.

A bit late for this advice now, but hopefully you'll know what to do next time.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
