Sound wave not displaying (Flatline)

Hi all,
I am having problems generating a visual sound wave when creating a track.  I am able to produce actual sound and create a sound track, but the display shows a continuous flat line (for my guitar).  Im not creating lengthy tracks so it doesnt seem to be a CPU issue.  Anybody have advice on this?  Thanks much.

Ha! That sounds like it could be it. You know, there's always this pause after you drag something in for GB to digest it and process the wave graph. It does take some CPU elbow grease for GB to crunch through this, so maybe it's just exceeding some limit?
Here's one suggestion then: cut the sound file into pieces without moving them. Position the playback line at a certain point, and hit Command T. This will split the file at that point. Do this a few times to chop the thing into bite size pieces. Maybe that'll work.
If that doesn't work, you could then try moving each of the pieces onto a new track, making sure to align them. Moving the pieces onto a new track might force GB to draw the wave, and with the now bite-sized regions.
Come to think of it, I think I've encountered this non-wave bug too.
I didn't really need the waves at the time so my approach was to just ignore the problem and pretend like it didn't exist, and then, it didn't. I guess after I encountered this I moved on to the next song which was OK! So, out of sight out of mind. That may not be the best advice, so hopefully the other thought about chopping these up will help!

  • Orbit sound dock not displaying as bluetooth device

    Hi,
    I have purchased an orbit sounddock which has bluetooth enabled. My iphone displays it when I connect via bluetooth and plys music with no isues. However, my new macbook pro doesn't display it as a device to pair. No issue with seeing my magic mouse so bluetooth is working.
    Cheers

    I too had problems setting up Bluetooth on my MacBook and iPad mini with new devices over my home wi-fi. The devices were a speaker (JBL Flip) and headphones (Stennheiser). So I went back to the shops where I had bought them and they set them up for me. Now everything works/connects at home.
    Maybe this would work for you?
    Graham
    PS - one thing I did not know is that Bluetooth on other devices has to be OFF when pairing. So, when in the speaker shop, where they had previously set up Bluetooth on my iPhone, they asked me to turn off Bluetooth on that whilst pairing with an iPad mini and my Macbook. This may have relevance.

    Using Azul media player app on my ipad  Apple tv will only display sound but not video from movies.  Any ideas on a fix.  I set mirroring to on but it still does not display video.  It will display photos and video recorded from my iphone.

    Here are the steps for AirPlay:
    Before starting Azul from your (running iOS 5.x/6.x) home screen where have have all your apps we need to turn on mirroring
    On your iPhone 4S/5 or iPad 2 or 3, double-click the Home  Button to view your recently-used apps.
    Swipe all the way to the right to until you see the  icon.
    Note: If the icon does not appear, go to the "If AirPlay Mirroring is not visible or available on your mobile iOS device" section.
    Tap the  icon to see the list of available AirPlay devices.
    Enable AirPlay Mirroring in this menu by tapping on an available Apple TV, then sliding the Mirroring slider to ON.
    Now you should be seeing your iPad/iPhone on your TV.
    Start up Azul now and using the settings icon on the top right corner go to the option that say "TV out" ON.
    When you do that you will see an Orange screen
    Now click "Done" and play the video you want to watch and it will AirPlay

    Slow, intermittent.  Sometimes bootable sometime not. Odd behavior.
    Sounds to me like a classic case of your HD failing.
    Your SMART status may still show verified, with no errors on the Apple Hardware Test, Disk Utility shows no problems on Disk Repair-  this is of no help.
    I trust you have a good back-up and a bootable clone.

  • Display Sound  waves

    Hi
    I want to display sound wave files on screen like in ECG(Time series) format.
    Rahul

    Dear Seniors,
    i tried to display my sound.wav file in wave format
    (wave graph with time in xaxis and frequency in y axix)
    i have tried like this. and can get the byte stream as follows.
    File file = new File("e:\\munas\\sounds\\myfile1.wav");
    System.out.println("File : " + file.exists());
    AudioInputStream stream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(file);
    AudioFormat format = stream.getFormat();
    stream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(format, stream);
    // Create line
    SourceDataLine.Info info = new DataLine.Info(
    SourceDataLine.class, stream.getFormat(),
    ((int)stream.getFrameLength()*format.getFrameSize()));
    SourceDataLine line = (SourceDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(info);
    line.open(stream.getFormat());
    line.start();
    // Continuously read and play chunks of audio
    int numRead = 0;
    byte[] buf = new byte[line.getBufferSize()];
    while ((numRead = stream.read(buf, 0, buf.length)) >= 0) {
    int offset = 0;
    while (offset < numRead) {
    offset += line.write(buf, offset, numRead-offset);
    System.out.println("out.length " + buf.length);
    for(int ii = 0 ; ii < buf.length ; ii+=10 ) {
    // here i am getting the byte value from the Audio Stream.
    System.out.println("buf["+ii+"] : " + buf[ii]);
    // using this value i planned to draw the desired graph(time Vs data)
    am i right in getting the right stream value for my graph??
    if wrong, how to get the data to be presented as i like in graph format??
    valuable tips and suggesstions will be appreciated much.

  • My Mac Pro is not displaying any images for videos or games, it is showing sound and working but nothing else. DVD player is also coming up with an error.

    My Mac Pro is not displaying any images for videos or games, it is showing sound and working but nothing else. DVD player is also coming up with an error. I'm not sure why neither is working, it just suddenly happened. I have done nothing different.

    Lao Bo,
    yes, you can locate and copy a file from your HD to a USB key using UNIX commands. If you know the exact name of the file which you’re trying to locate, try this:
    find / -iname filename -print
    This command will search your entire internal disk for the particular filename. If you know that it’s within a particular user account, then you can save search time with this variation:
    find /Users/username -iname filename -print
    Either variation of this command will print all files found which have the given filename. Presuming that you’re able to identify the correct file, you can copy it to a USB key using the command
    cp -p filename_returned_by_find /Volumes/USB_volume
    If you’re not sure which volume name your USB key has, this command will show you what the possibilities are:
    ls /Volumes
    Please let me know if you have any trouble with these commands.

    Ok..
    Try Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    If that doesn't help, try Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    If nothing helped, since you don't hear the startup chord, make an appointment at an Apple Apple Genius Bar or take your Mac to an Apple certified repair provider.

  • Sound Wave in Track Editor is Low-Res, Won't Redraw Hi-Res

    I'm using GarageBand on a new computer, and when I record a real instrument, the sound wave in the the Track Editor isn't upgraded from the low-res version displayed during recording to the much more detailed hi-res version that makes it possible to distinguish individual notes. What do I need to change?

    To clarify what you expect to see, are you looking for it to turn into actual music notation?

    Hi,
    Acrobat xi - RE: Add sound icon- skin displayed is a 'blank white box' until it is clicked to activate it- can you lock skin to display before its activated so that in a print run the skin shows up (ie the controls-or any kind of greyed out rectangle, like video controls before 1st activation) and not the blank white box- if no, I guess I have to activate all sound icons before doing a print run?thanks)).

    Many of your points are totally legitimate.
    This one, however, is not:
    …To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
    The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
    The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.

  • Why is it when I add photos from iPhoto onto an iMovie project, it is not displayed when I play the movie from beginning to end, although I can see it in the (edit) format?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm just wondering why is it that when I place an image from iPhoto to an iMovie project, it is not displayed when I play it from beginning to end in fullscreen playback mode? However, when I exit it on the timeline, it is shown. All I did as drag it from the iPhoto column and place on at the beginning. I would really appreciate someones help because I really need to be able to place images onto my projects. Thanks!

  • Video is not displaying in the latest shockwave

    After updating to the latest version of Shockwave, .flv videos are not displaying. The audio is there but no video.
    What is going on Adobe?

    I agree - I am seeing an area where I presume video should be playing but I only hear the sound.
    You won't find an Adobe representative or tech support here, just other users trying to help one another.
    I assume Raymond that you are the content developer? Have you tried isolating the issue into a minimal file that could be submitted to Adobe as a bug report? I would suggest doing so as a start on getting your issue addressed. If you're lucky, doing so will lead you to find a solution, or perhaps a work-around. Create a file that only plays a video. You said earlier:
    I use the Flash asset and call.import which ever video is needed.
    perhaps you could post some code, or a link to a demo file that reproduces your problem
