Should i use nodes with a MacPro 3ghz?
I remember reading that logic v7.2.3 enables the computer to fully utilize all four processors.
-Does that mean nodes wouldn't help?
I actually know next to nothing about nodes. Is my assumption right? Namely, that activating them increases performance with quad processors.
-Is there a downside?
-Is it different for Intel models?

i hope you're right phillip. I haven't really finished setting up logic yet, so i can't be sure. by setting up, i mean loading dozens of synths and leaving them there, so when writing, i can simply change tracks and hit record. My dream has always been to work this way, to maximize work flow while writing.
Until an hour ago, i felt the same way... i have dozens of synths up there and the disk/cpu monitor barely shows anything. Then i hit play, (there were like four synth tracks and a couple apple loops playing) and simultaneously played the keyboard. A message came up saying something like "logic was unable to execute command due to speed", or something. I clicked ok and continued loading synths.
Then i loaded an exs preset and immedietly played the keyboard. logic suddenly crashed. (the first crash on this machine so it was a sad moment)
i don't mind waiting a second to play the keys after loading samples. I'm just concerned that I might already be reaching the limits of this computer.
My plan was also to load like 36 instances of machfive software sampler, each filled with 16 channels of samples.
Then, i'd love to have several dozen apple loops up there, muted, but ready to unmute in an instant. Then, of course, audio tracks at some point.
soooo, 36 synths, 36x16 channels of soft sampler, like 80 apple loops, and a couple dozen audio tracks, all available at once. Obviously, only a tiny fraction of this would ever be playing at once, but ideally, all sitting up there, waiting to play.
Do you think i'll be able to do all this easily?
Even after hearing my plans, you still think nodes aren't necessary?
I sure hope you're right, cause i spent every last cent on this **** thing.

Retina 5K display: can I use this with my MacPro 2006 Quad 8 core?
Dear Community
I have a MacPro early 2008 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon; ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB: 20-inch DVI (1680 x 1050).
Is it possible to upgrade to the new 5K Retina Display?
Regards
SteveSteve ~ There is no new Apple 5K Retina Display as such, i.e. an Apple 5K Retina monitor to connect to a Mac Pro. There is a new iMac with Retina 5K display, but my understanding is that it cannot be used as a monitor. And if Apple were to produce a new Retina 5K version of their current Apple Thunderbolt Display (which is a monitor), I doubt a 2006 or 2008 Mac Pro could drive it.

Should you use gloves with InvisibleShield
I've just received my shield, 1 week to get to the UK with no additional shipping costs, which is a very good service.
Can somebody advise whether I should use surgical gloves during application to prevent any contamination from my hands i.e. finger prints etc. Has anybody tried applying the shield with gloves, and if so, do you think it was better than bare fingers....As I have now installed my shield, I would recommend the practice of using disposable surgical gloves. You can touch the back of the shield, without the worries of finger prints. My shield went on very well, the only marks are where my wife accidently touched the back with her bare fingers, as she was helping me

Best thing for these type of requirements would be to use a calendar table
DECLARE @StartDate datetime, @EndDate datetime
SET @StartDate = '20150101',@EndDate = '20150131'
;WIth CTE
AS
SELECT f.[Date]
FROM dbo.CalendarTable (@StartDate,@EndDate,1,0) f
LEFT JOIN YourTable t
On f.{Date] = t.[Datefield]
WHERE t.DateField IS NULL
SELECT c1.[Date]
FROM CTE c1
CROSS JOIN ((0),(-1),(-2),(-3))t(N)
INNER JOIN CTE c2
ON c2.[Date] = DATEADD(dd,N,c1.[Date])
GROUP BY c1.[Date]
HAVING COUNT(c2.{Date]) >= 4

Just wondering if anyone else is suffering at the hands of FCS2 on a new Intel.
We have just bought the biggest machine Apple offer, with FCS2 as a clean install. The project is being cut in ProRes, and is causing us nightmares.
Constant "out of memory" errors, super frequent crashes and now the system is refusing to find the SmoothCam plugin. We have reinstalled FCS2 already, and it still does not find it.
Our old G5 edit suite is also running FCP 6.0.1, and thankfully is no where near as buggy, but the Intel workstation is dragging the project backwards.
I have repaired permissions, reinstalled the software, cleaned the caches, deleted the preferences. The only thing I have not done is format the hard drive, and start again. Any other tips before I nuke the system?
Cheers
Alisterok, I have rebuilt the machine from scratch. reformatted and started again. installed all updates and such.
opened existing project, and rendered, and the whole thing has gone south again. maybe not where I thought the issue was.
I then changed the timeline from ProRes HQ (ProRes crashed just as badly) to anything else, and all works fine. so far I have tried Photo JPEG, Apple Intermediate, 8 bit Uncompressed and they all render, play and edit fine - even though the source footage is still ProRes HQ....
curioser and curioser.
I havent bothered swapping out the RAM yet, as this seems to be identifiying the source of issue.
So, I guess I just sit back and wait for an update???
Cheers

Should i use compression with btrfs, an ssd, and a 1.6 atom processor?
My netbook has a 60gb ssd with btrfs, is it a good idea to enable compression? My main goal for this net-book is battery life.
If i do enable compression only new files are compressed, is there a way to walk over old files and compress them?
My current partition looks like this:
/boot ext2 200mb
/ btrfs 7g
/home btrfs 46g
I need to make my root larger because i am running out of space so i'm going to be messing with the file systems anyway this suggests that i place my entire system in a subvolume, is this something i can do retroactively, or would I have to do a reinstall, which i'm ok with
Last edited by seniorsassycat (2012-01-27 01:45:58)Compression can help with SDD longevity (less data written) but not the battery's longevity (which will require charging more often and eventually start to hold less charge). I would probably not enable compression at all. 60 GB is plenty.
If you think about it, while you can't actually replace either of them in a netbook, the battery is more important - at least in a portable device. Even if the SSD gives out in 5-8 years at least you could still boot from a USB stick and breathe some life into it. But replacing the battery... well, it's probably not gonna happen. And by that time it will probably end up on a garbage landfill anyway. Pff... Consumerism. -
Which IDE should I use integrated with the Rational ClearCase?
I�m starting a new project and will usethe Rational ClearCase as version controller.. and I need to use an IDE.
which is your IDE?
Eclipse? is there anythiong better? much better?I use JCreator Pro. It is written in C++ so very fast, and is inexpensive for the features you get (http://www.jcreator.com).
It does not have native support for clearcase etc, but it does have a number of custom defined tool buttons, so you could create a tool button to execute a cvs command line statement.
I've used many IDE's and personally I think JCreator beats them all.

Using XSLT to extract value of a XML node with namespace

I want to use XSLT to extract value of a XML node with namespace <job:location>, and the returned value should be string 'Sydney - Inner Suburbs & CBD'. I tried a few XSL code below, but failed with error or nothing was returned.
<xsl:value-of select="job:location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="job/location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="job\location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
This might be an easy question for you, but I would appreciate if anyone can help.Hi Suncorp IT Learner,
We need to tell the XSLT that some elements are in another namespace. Copy the xmls declarations for the prefixes you need to use. Then use the xsl format as:
<xsl: value-of select=”job:location/@PUReferenceID”/>
In following issue, Chriztian has a good explanation:

Should I use one apple id with multiple devices?
I have 2 iPods an iPad and a new iPhone. Should I use the same Apple ID on all decvices? The iPods are for the kids to use. Also, will be adding apple tv soon...
I registered my daughters two I touches using my apple I'd , but now told I should use separate IDs even though only my credit card is to be used when authorized by me. As I try to figure this very confusing dilemma out, didninunderstand correctly that if I remove their devices now from my ID, they can't be associated with another device for 90 days? Is their a walk thru tutorial somewhere about how to do this bc I'm beginning to think some mistakes are irreversible for 90 days if you try to figure it out and are wrong!
