Slowing down samples with pitch change

I'm looking for the easiest way to slow down a sample within Logic and have the pitch change as well.
For example, my sample is two bars of jazz piano at 140 bpm, I'd really like to take it down to
115-118 bpm and have the tempo change affect the pitch so it's lower and more suited to hip hop.
I use ReCycle, and so far I've tried two ways. I've tried loading the REX file directly from the browser and slowing down the master tempo, but it just stretched my sample out and kept the pitch the same.
I also tried loading the samples to the ESX24 and then adjusting the tempo, with the same effect....
Any suggestions anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Sed,
Use this one, in the *sample editor window*, with the correct sample/audio file in it of course:
Then pick *'classic mode' OR free mode* (both do exactly what you describe) and 'complex' algorithm. You can pick any setting in the Tempo or Pitch fields - they are linked. Click '*process an paste*' and you're done.
Regards, Erik

Slow down issue with Premiere CS4 on a Mac pro

I am having a similar slow down issue with Premiere CS4 on a Mac pro, but I don't have bloated prproj file size.
Here is what I am working with:
Mac Pro intel quad core 2.8ghz
OSX 10.6.7 Snow Leopard
6Gigs RAM
3TB storage between 4 drives, each drive with about 50% free space
I am editing a 10 minute HD video from avchd files. The edited video is very heavy in photoshop files with a variety of different fx including green screen. The system has slowed down to almost a standstill. Anytime I move the playcurser, or try to do any action, it displays the spinning top "thinking" icon and takes 15 seconds to several minutes to unfreeze. I am often forced to force quit and I have gotten unexpected quits several times. The program also freezes on startup frequently.
No other programs are running. When I export with media encoder, it took about 4 hours to complete. The last 4 or so photoshop images I added seemed to tip the program over the edge. It had been slowing down some, but those last few really dropped the processing speed. Before those additions, export took 30 min to 1hr.
I did delete the render files (did not check if the file size was bloated beforehand, oops) but it has not significantly affected my performance.

Do you need all of those extra pixels in the stills? Are you panning the full 4976?
Two things to consider are that if you using, say a 1920 x 1080 Sequence Frame Size, you can only see that at any time, regardless of how large the images are in pixels. If there are extra pixels, i.e. the Pan is not using all 4976 pxls., I would Scale to just what you need in PS, prior to Import.
If you are doing any Scale in PrPro, its Scaling algorithms are not as efficient, as those in PS. [Note: CS5 and 5.5 are a major improvement on that statement.]
With many large stills (the max for CS4 is 4096 x 4096, if there ARE extra pixels, pushing those around will use up resources, and quickly. As a test, some years back, I was working on a "photo wall," and was using 4000 x 4000 images. The workstation had no issues with slowness, until I got to the 5th large still. By the 8th, the Project was too slow to edit. I had to wait for everything. Luckily, I have AE, and it handles large stills much more efficiently, and much differently, than PrPro. I just moved to an AE Comp, and completed the Project, finishing up n PrPro, after I Exported from AE.
Just something to think about. With Scaling in PrPro, this is one time, where bigger is not necessarily better.
Good luck,
Hunt

Silviu!
I'm really sorry, but as all the office is trying to fix the problem, someone replaced the url content with the stuff that was pointing to the local machine.
I've fix it, and the video player is available here again: http://pp.player.webtv.flumotion.com/params/apiKey/5PzLR2ULL3z2rumJ/videoId/60
If there are other references to the localhost, please do not bother with them, as they do not affect player functionality.
The stream that it uses is an RTMPE, so i'm afraid it will only works with this player. Anyway, the stream url is as follows: rtmpe://87.248.205.81/a4349/e2/veo7/ondemandrtmpe/mp4/med/first-person-mario-4d8741aa.mp4
I really appreciate your help!
Thank you!

Looking for Active Data Service samples with RDBMS change notification fire

Hi,
I am looking for samples/examples of Active Data Service when a server side event, like RDBMS change notification got triggered.
The ADS samples that I found so far are:
- Twitter http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/learnmore/65-activedataservicestwittersample-191314.pdf
- http://adfwithejb.blogspot.com/2012/12/active-data-service-with-active-image.html
- http://adfwithejb.blogspot.com/2012/12/active-data-serivce-with-data.html
But these samples do not demonstrate how RDBMS change notification got triggered got triggered. The last two samples have a Runnable class that simulate the triggering, and the Twitter example is twitter stream notification.
Please shed some lights on Active Data Service with RDBMS change notification got triggered.
Thanks
-Mina

Hi Mina,
Check this 2 resources, first a presentation made at OOW by Lucas Jellema: http://www.slideshare.net/lucasjellema/push-to-the-limit-rich-and-proactive-user-interfaces-with-adf-oracle-open-world-2011
second an interesting forum thread around the the topic: ADF BC and the Active Data Service using af:table from what I know this is still valid as of today.
After reviewing the topic there is also one more link that address this topic:

Slow down loads with ios 5.1

I have an iPad2 and iPhone4, Is anyone experiencing slower down loads speeds for Apps and Music under iOS 5.1?

The app is called Speed Test. I think that is what Diavonex is referring to. I have the app. I don't know that is absolutely reliable either or all that accurate. It is however, a starting point.
I think you just might experiencing what a lot of users are seeing - an overload on all of the Apple servers. With the new iOS to download and all of the apps that now need to be updated - things were a little sluggish for me for a couple of days. My download speeds for the app store seem pretty good now.
Have you even tried restarting or resetting your iPad to see if that helps?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Slow down audio with quick keys

can you slow audio just a bit with a quick key to check an editing point before cutting?

Logic 9 has speed fades that achieve this very easily. Plugins like Amazing slow downer could do this.
Have you tried turning the clip into an Apple Loop which follows tempo. Then slowing down the tempo of the project?

Slow down effect with Nokia 2730C after update.

Hello everyone. I have a Nokia 2730 Classic. I bought this phone on april with version 7.70. A week ago, I updated my phone via USB to version 10.45. After update, I have some problems, that annoys me. First (and most important) problem is when I turn on my music player, my phone freezes down for about 2 seconds, then, I want to turn next song and when I press the "next song" button, everything freezes down for 5 seconds and just then the next song plays. Especially, when I play games. This never have been before this update! Second, I missed the "screensaver change" function, like most of people, who have this phone. At last, I need to change my BIG phone clock and icons, to smaller. Can I do that?

Have you tried reinstalling? Restore to factory first before reinstalling.

EXS - Modulating samples with pitch wheel?

I'm making an EXS instrument with my own recorded samples.
I'm trying to play one set of samples between C2 and C3, and another slightly different set of samples between the same keys.
How do I make it so that I can use the pitch wheel on my keyboard to alternate between the two? I can't see the parameters within the EXS sample editor. Or, if I can I certainly can't figure out how to use it!
Any help at all would be much appreciated. Thanks. I'm in a real muddle! Thanks...
Message was edited by: microjac

In the EXS editor place the two sets of samples in two different groups. Select "groups" at the top of the window. Toward the right side you will find "select group by" set the "type" to bend.
In the modulation matrix set the top line to "sample select" the bottom to "pitch bend" and adjust the arrow.

Quicklookd slowing down Leopard with video files

For some reason whenever I'm trying to open a folder with video files, add a video to a project or just open a video, I get the spinning beachball for quite a while before anything happens. This makes using iDVD impossible, Toast almost unbearable and general use of my mac quite annoying. Looking at processes on istat, quicklookd seems to be using 70-80% of the processor, sometimes higher. I could understand if I were using a slow computer but this is on my iMac Core 2 Duo 2.8GHz. The files tend to be .avi - either xvid or divx if that's helpful.
Would be enormously grateful for any advice. Thanks.

Samba slows down/crashes with more than 50 users

We have a XServe Dual G5 with 2GB RAM running only Open Directory & SMB for a network of 150 Windows XP Pro workstations. Everything works fine if we have < 30 users logon at once, but if 40-50 users try the server just goes belly up.
We've upgraded to 10.5.2 but that didn't seem to help at all. The CPUs never go above 70% utilization, the network traffic is very low, and it always has about a GB of memory left. Does anyone else have any clues? I've included the top part one of the CrashReporter logs for samba.

Just to close this out: the answer was it wasn't the Xserve at all. It turns out the Windows clients were running an anti-virus program that was scanning the network drives on login. So, when they all logged in simultaneously they hit the Xserve with 50 scans and it was so busy dealing with the load that it couldn't process the logins for the others.
Unfortunately we didn't find this out until the Teacher was completely feed up with the Apple unit and removed it from the school (to put it politely). When the new (Linux based) unit exhibited the same slowdown, we figured it must be with the Windows clients. After we turned off the anti-virus network drive scan, everything got much better.
So, while this does have a happy ending (the network works) it did involve an Apple casualty. I tried my best, but maybe this post will help someone else that find themselves in the same predicament.

Slow it down with or without pitch change?

Hi
Everyone, Guitar player here.
Can Logic do what the transcriptons programs do. Can it Slow down a track or change the pitch. Or
Should I get a sperate application for that,
Thanks
Troy

Yes. We can!
It is, however, important that you record the stuff with Logic itself, for it won't work on simply imported audio files. If you want to use imported files, you'll have to re-record them, because Logic then hard codes the time marks into the file.
The magic word ist timestretching.

Slowing down tracks

If I'm trying to learn a guitar solo from an existing song, can I import it into Garageband and slow down the tempo without changing the pitch, so I can work out what the notes are taht are being used? If so, how do I achieve this or maybe someone can point me to a tutorial. Thanks in advance.

Slow system – problem with OS, software, memory, hard drive?

I am running a MacBookPro5,3 (Intel Core 2 Duo – 2.8 GHz, Memory = 2 x 4 GB, Hard drive = NVidia 500 GB - 100GB of which is free space), using Mac OS X 10.6.3.
I was running 10.6.6. Then attempted a software update to 10.6.7 and the system essentially stopped working, Was able to back up data using target disk mode, and then reinstalled 10.6.3 using a purchased snow leopard DVD (had lost the disk that came with the computer). Worked for a while but have been having issues with increasingly long and frequent system slow downs (spinning beach ball). Recently attempted another system update, and the update failed and wasn't able to do anything. Used the 10.6.3 dvd and did a disk utility check – it initially said there was a problem with the hard drive – but on another restart from the DVD this issue disappeared (but still no working OS). Attempted connection of my computer to another laptop using target disk mode – this failed to show the target hard drive and only showed the dvd which was in the computer booted up in target disk mode.
At this point rebooted using the DVD and was able again to install system 10.6.3. However, there are still occasions of sporadic slow-downs associated with specific applications (spinning beach ball for anywhere from 5 – 120 sec). Ran disk utility from the DVD again – states that the permissions and the hard drive is OK. Also, ran a memory test (using Rember) which stated that everything was fine (although the test took nearly 2 hours to run and was punctuated by much spinning beach ball activity).
At this stage i am not sure whether I have a problem with memory, the hard drive, the OS or the software. Clearly something is not right – are there any other options to test my system (since I don't have the original dvd – I haven't been able to run a system hardware test) - other third party options?
Thanks in advance for any advice, and apologies for long post.
Rob

Sounds like a failing hard drive or SATA controller. It's not clear whether you have a backup of your data. If not, you should remove the hard drive from the machine and install it an external enclosure or dock, then back it up using another Mac. Then take the unit to an authorized service outlet for testing.

SAP GUI slow down after installed Eastern Asian Language Package

Hello,
Have any idea what happened to SAP GUI after installed Eastern Asian Language Package on Windows XP ?
I am working on smartforms translations in SE63 and during entering the japanese or chinese text my working area is slowing down(problems with scrolling), like missing memory or sth?
How to overcome it?
Regards,
Mateusz.

There is a known performance problem with certain SAPGUI patches in certain constellations:
Note 1460669 - Performance problems in SAP GUI for Windows
You may try to install the newest patches or downgrade to a patch that does not have that problem.
