  • We are recording 2 voices over an instrumental track. Every time there is a rest in the vocal part the volume of the instrumental track noticeable increases. Is this fixable? We are using Alesis multi mix 8 with 2 microphones.

  • Can I rotate mark ups created with Adobe X on the background page of a PDF document?

    Can I rotate mark ups created with Adobe X on the background page of a PDF document?

    Thank you for taking the time to reply.
    I tried both ways and neither works.  It gives me a prompt box that I have to click "next" for every page but after going thru all pages, nothing is sent to the printer.
    Also, all directions I've read indicate it will print to the default printer.  If my default printer is on a network, will that cause problems....
    and...
    should I be getting a prompt box on every page?  I thought all this would happen behind the scenes and not force me to interact with every page.

  • How do I record my voice and other sounds using the microphone in my HP TouchSmart 15?

    I just recently got an HP TouchSmart 15 notebook PC and know very little about how to use it.  I'd like to use the onboard microphone to record my voice and other sounds, ending up with sound files that I can save and use in creating multi-media presentations.  Thanks for helping me learn how to do that!

  • How can I record a microphone and software instrument at the same time in Garageband 10.0.1?  It seems I can record one or the other, but not both at the same time?

    I am trying to record a vocal mic and a keyboard (using a software instrument) at the same time using Garageband 10.0.1.  It seems that I can't record the mic input and the software instrument at the same time.  I can record the mic input by itself, and I can record the software instrument by itself (if I don't have a mic input track created), but I can't record them together.
    It seems like this should be an obvious thing to be able to do, but I can't figure out how to make it work.
    Can someone help?
    Thanks,
    Kurt

  • When converting word doc to pdf, my images with text only show the background color of the text box.

    I have a word doc that I am trying to conver to pdf.  I have jpegs with text boxes on top of them on one page.  It looks great on the screen but after I convert to pdf, the text boxes only have half the text, the first half of the text box is just white - the background color.  If I take the background color out of the text box, the text converts over fine but I need the background color.
    I have tried many things here on the print settings, standard, high quality print, unchecking the compression on the images.  Any help?

  • When I try to print, I get one page with a header and the background image, another page with the content, and a third page with a footer and background image. How can I make it print properly?

    Also, if I print to a .pdf, the background does not show up even if I have the checkbox checked to print background image.
    The site I'm trying to print is:

    I did not have the HP printer software for Mac OSX installed properly. Once installed the problem went away.

  • Communicating with presentation server in the background mode

    Hi Folks,
        I have a requirement to communicate the presentation server in the background mode. I'm following the below article for achieving it.

    But I'm getting an error while testing in the dos prompt. The error is as following.
    The system cannot execute the specified program.
    Kindly Help.
    Regards,
      santosh

    But I'm getting an error while testing in the dos prompt. The error is as following. The system cannot execute the specified program.
    You see this error usually if some libraries (dll's) are missing. To investigate this issue it might help to use the [dependency walker|http://www.dependencywalker.com/] tool on the executable and check for any missing libraries. If you cannot figure it out yourself, please try to post exact comments of what you're doing and complete error messages including ideally version of your RFCSDK.

  • Recorded midi file with Garageband keyboard-only the beginning of it plays

    Hi,
    When i play a recorded midi sound from the jampack with the midi keyboard included (world music instrum.), once the track is recorded, if I start to play it and press stop in the middle of a long note, and press play again, the last part of this note isn't heard. It's no big deal, but for editing it's a pain in the neck because in order to hear the sound I have to go back to the beginning of that same note. Anyone here knows what this can be due to?, Ive checked the garageband help and not much is said about that...
    Thanks for the help.
    Patrick.

    It's not a GB problem, but inherent to midi - the data consists only of "note on" / "note off" events, not continuous information about a key being pressed down. So if you start playing your song after the "note on" event, the program has no way of knowing that the key was pressed earlier. It then just ignores the "note off" event.

  • Using mainstage with two instruments at the same time

    Hi, I'm using an M-Audio firewire solo as an interface with my macbook.  I have a usb keyboard and want to play guitar as well, switching between the two onstage.  My question is, how do I get the outputs to the soundboard so they can be mixed separately?  The interface has two inputs and balanced outputs (ch1 and ch2).  I want channel 1 (gtr) to go to ch1 of the output and channel 2 (keys) to go to ch2 of the output so they can be mixed to the front of house and monitor mixes.  Is this even possible using mainstage or logic, or even by just using the headphone out on the macbook?

    Since MainStage only deals with outputs in stereo.  You'll need to do some panning.  Pan your Guitar fully LEFT, and your keys fully RIGHT.  That'll give you two separate outputs.... 
    FYI, there are some issues with panning in MainStage 2.  So, to get around this....  Create two Sub Aux channels.  One called Guitar Out, and the other Keys Out.  Do your panning there and not on the individual channels.  And send channel one to the Guitar Out Aux, and the Keys to Keys Out Aux.

  • How can I place an image hot spot on top of a ap div with an image in the background of the ap div?

    It won't let me

    Right. You can't make an image map out of a background.  You must insert the image directly into the page (HTML markup).  Then apply hotspot tools to the image.

  • New version FF3.63 causes a faded screen with script running in the background. I understand it may not be entirely compatible with 64bit units. I was perfectly happy with 3.59 and would like to downgrade, is this possible and how?

    I would like to go back to version 3.59. 3.63 is slow and buggy on my unit.

    You can get 3.5.9 from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • Record voice with microphone into local file.

    I would like to build a small application in AS3 adobe Air so that my users can record their voice with microphone.
    I know there is a Microphone class but I don't know if AS3  adobe Air allows to record the voice into a file locally.
    Is that possible to do so with AS3 adobe Air?
    Do I absolutely need Flash Media Server or is there a way around?

    The Microphone class doesn't allow access to the bytes that are being streamed.  Join the cause to open the access! http://www.getmicrophone.com/
    Although, you can accomplish this by using a streaming server I believe.  I've not yet experiemented with just audio recording, but I have with video/audio recording and that works just fine.
