Splitting tracks from recorded minidisc?

I have just recorded a minidisc though GB and exported to itunes. Problem is in itunes it shows as one continuous track of 38minutes and not 12 tracks as the album should be, how can i split these into tracks so it shows as 12 seperate tracks in itunes??

GB was written to create single songs, while you can use it for what you want, it's not the best tool, an Audio Editor is much better suited:

If you're set on using GB then you can use the Cycle Region function to isolate each part of the project that is a song and export.

Split Tracks While Recording w/MediaSource Play

I'm converting some cassettes using MediaSource Player. Can I split tracks while recording, i.e. record the whole cassette and then split that into individual tracks? I've done that with Microsoft Plus!, but can't seem to find that functionality with MediaSource. Also--if I want the absolute best quality recording of the cassettes, am I right in thinking I'd select WAV stereo, w/96.00 kHZ and 24 bits? The cassettes are li've recordings that I'd like to?have professionally mixed in a studio and then released as CD's, so I need the optimal "starting point" as far as the digital files are concerned. Thanks for any advice.

Yes, recording at 24/96 wave is the best that you can go with.
If you have one of the Creative sound cards, check whether you have the Creative Smart Recorder application. It has a split track function.

Splitting tracks when recording vinyl reco

I'm currently recording vinyl records onto my hard dri've and would like to know if there is any way to split the tracks as it's recording. In other words, I record an entire side of a record at one time and eventhough it has 6 individual tracks, it's listed as one track. I know I can stop the recording after each track but that seem to be a waste of time. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

SmartRecorder is specially designed for that job.

How do I create a split track audio recording (2 outputs)?

I am trying to create a two-output track for use with IEM and house sound (right channel with some instrument tracks to house; left channel with click & choral voices to IEM only). I don't know how to assign the output to L or R in Express. I've seen some online answers in Pro, but they don't work the same.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't want to have to think about instrument numbers when I'm creating music.
"Create with next" requires you to:
1) Highlight the last used instrument (highest by number)
2) Have another (n+1) instrument ready to go in your Environment
If you fail at step #1, you'll get a duplicate, and if you fail at #2, you'll get some other type of track entirely (maybe a bus, a master fader, etc.)
Maybe I'm old-fashioned or something, but when I want a fresh track, I just want a fresh track... I don't want to have to think about existing track numbers, or the state of the Environment That's why I use "Create" and "Create Multiple," and I haven't found much use for "Create with next."
But, hey, really, I'm glad it works for someone!

Renaming artist splits track 1 from rest of album

Recently I renamed Kiss to read KISS, and just now renamed The Project Hate Mcmxcix to MCMXCIX. After completion the first track of every single album by these two bands is split off from the second track on down. I've tried re-entering all uniform data (even album art) and they still won't group together. Everything that is common for each album, artist name, album name, year, number of total tracks, and artwork is exactly the same.
Anyone have a clue why iTunes is doing this? Thanks in advance.

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Why? No. A workaround? Yes. See my previous post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, still too many covers.

Questions on sending audio tracks from a short film into Audition for mastering

Ok so basically I have a 4 minute film in which i need to master the audio. I have a few quesions as to how to best go about this.
1: Some of the clips came with 2 tracks off the camera yet they are both labeled channel 1 on the beginning of the clip on the timeline. Their properties are listed as follows:
Type: Windows WAVE audio file
File Size: 16.0 MB
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 24 bit - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Total Duration: 00:00:58:09344
Why are there 2 tracks?
2: Some other audio tracks are just labeled on the timeline as L and R. Both these and the other ones labeled Ch 1 are synced with Pluraleyes from an H4N Zoom recorder so i have no clue why they are labeled different. These one have properties labeled as such:
Type: MPEG Movie
File Size: 69.5 MB
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Frame Rate: 23.976
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 16 bit - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Total Duration: 00:00:14:20
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0 (1.0)
Yes those are audio files on the timeline.
3: What is the general scoops with these multi track audio files? Do I need both tracks?
4: What would be the best workflow to export all the audio clips into Audition and get them back in the timeline? I heard about importing then in Premiere clicking Undo so you don't have the audio track clips as "Audio Extracted" and you retain the originals, but then just replace them with the Audition audio.
Working with sound is not yet a strong point of mine, i am just a video editor but need to get a grasp on properly handling this.

Cameras although they can record stereo audio often only use a small mono gun mic mounted on the camera. The audio menus on the camera give you the option to record either the mono mic to both tracks (ie. Ch1 input to the camrea is fed to both) or as stereo tracks from a stereo mic or as split tracks with onboard mic via Ch1 to track 1 and, say, a radio mic fed via Ch2 to track 2.
Your first files sound as if they came from the first of those options from an onboard mono mic. You don't necessarily need both trakc as they are identical mono tracks in this case.
The second set of tracks were recorded as a stereo pair on the Zoom, hence L and R. They could be stereo or more likely again are double mono tracks where you will only need one of them.
However, depending on the project, it may be more convenient to keep both tracks if any stereo music or effects are going to be mixed in on the multitrack. The final edited video will probably have two tracks on it anyway even if all the audio content is mono.

Extract Audio Narration Track from Keynote with Voice Over

I just found a way to extract the audio narration track from a keynote I recorded using the voice over feature.
I used BetterZip.
I right-clicked on my keynote to show the "Open With..." contextual menu. I had the keynote open with BetterZip instead of Keynote and it extracted all the elements of the presentation into a folder. I saw in there several audio tracks.
Now, Keynote did not split the audio tracks into individual slide snippets but that's better than any other technique I have read on this forum so far.
I hope this helps someone in the future.

If you save your Keynotes as a package, then you can right click and +Show Package Content+ and see all the files that make up your Keynote as well. To save your Keynotes as a package go to Preferences and click +Save new documents as packages.+

Audible tick in between split tracks

I recently recorded a classical guitar piece. In between a few of the split tracks is a tick. It's undetected in the audio spectrum. I tried deleting the portion where the tick lives but, it is always there. I've had luck burying it in other sound but, there is a solo piece where I can't get away from it. Any help?

When you were editing your tick did you completely max out to zoom function in the edit window?
If not try that to find the offending area. I find 99 percent of my tick sounds this way.
You can also expand the edit window vertically upwards using the little hand icon. Take the hand and resize the window upwards to its max. Maximum zoom and maximum vertical height on the edit window will give you a lot more detail on the audio waveform.
Also if two regions are close to each other you might try to join them into one region using the join command. This should create one region and often it will remove the tick sound.

Workflow Suggestions for Getting Multiple Audio Tracks From Drum Machine

My goal is to make separate audio tracks from the MIDI output coming out of a hardware Boss DR-880 drum machine. It has nice drum samples that I would like to use. So far, I know how to split the output by MIDI notes as to create multiple tracks. I end up with a about 10 tracks which are all MIDI of course. What I want to do is end up with all audio tracks. This way I can set the levels and EQ to taste for each part of the drum kit.
What's the most straightforward way to achieve this goal? I tried bouncing in place but that only works for plugins -it's grayed-out for the post note split generated MID tracks. I also found a post on this forum with what I think is similar question but it's closed and the question was not clearly answered for a newbie like me.
So far I can do this:
1. Record the MIDI output from the drum machine to an External MIDI track.
2. I then split the MIDI track by note to get multiple MIDI tracks.
3. To get audio I play each track individually e.g., just the kick drum and record the audio coming
out of the drum machine into an audio track.
This is a huge pain since I have on average about 10 MIDI tracks! There has to be a better way, right?
Thanks!

hi there:
ok now when u want to do such a thing which i totally understand what u are trying to do !so u have these options L
1- u should have a mixer to feed it with all your outputs from outboard gears like drum machines ,samplers etc...coz what u like in your dr-880 is the character of its sound and trust me if i tell you even if u tried to sample it and put it into any sampler software ,it will have the same sound but not the same character ! so thats why we still have samplers and out board gears and they will be still manufactured coz of that reason ...so for example i use my akai s6000 sampler which it has 16 outputs direct to my mixer so i can do what ever i want midi wise and audio wise with out any pain ,coz even if i have the same samples into my whatever sampler software i will never have the color and the character of the sound coming out from my akai ...and i use a drum machine which it has 10 outs as well and all is playing in sync in real trime with my audio tracks inside my logic ...this is the best solution !but i think u dont have that solution but u have to think about it if u bring a good console..!
2- you don't have to divide your midi from your machine you just do what ever its need to be done and when u finish record them one by one into your logic or 2 by 2 or what ever but in this case u cant control the midi of it anymore
but you gonna pain to do that every time coz sometime u dont have much time to think about u have to record the sound before any mix down!but it will work for you
3- make samples by your own of your drum machine and use esx24 to play them !but again you gonna lose the character of your sound but still having the same sounds u want ( if u know how do make a good samples).
i hope this tips gonna be useful for you .
cheers..!:)

Extracting audio tracks from a specialized CD

I am quite new to the Adobe A/V applications having used Sony Sound Forge and Vegas for many years. I am now a monthly Creative Cloud subscriber and thought it might be a good idea to learn Audition, Premiere, etc. since I also use Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Lightroom, and Acrobat.
My audio workflow is probably quite different than most in that I work part-time at a church and deal with a number of CDs that always contain split tracks (instruments left; voices right), and usually a demo track and a stereo instrument only track. The split track and stereo instrument versions of the song contain multiple tracks within them for practice purposes. When I use the "Extract audio from CD..." command I usually select all of the tracks but would like to have all of those tracks included in ONE .wav file with markers inserted at each track. Is that possible?
The only way I have been able to reconstruct the multi-track single song files after extracking them in Audition is to open each track in Audition and then create a multitrack session and piece each song together on a single track line. This is time consuming, especially when some of the CDs have multiple songs and may contain 70-90 individual tracks (divisions).
Another thing I have not been able to figure out how to do is to take a split track that is contained within a stereo Audition track in a multitrack session and create two mono tracks - one containing the instruments, and one containing the voices. Our choir director will sometimes want to eliminate parts of the vocal tracks and use a soloist instead and having the two tracks as separate mono tracks makes that easier, although I know I can open the piece up in the waveform editor and have access to either the left or right track separately.
I am also looking for a manual or online course for learning several of the Adobe products. Any suggestions?
Your help is most appreciated!

Thank you durin! Yes, File > Open Append is much faster. It requires, however, that I know which track numbers make up an entire song. Then the Edit > Extract Channels to Mono Files works great too. After working on the individual tracks I then Ctrl-clicked on each track and did Multitrack > Bounce To New Track > Selected Track to convert it back into a stereo track in the waveform editor. From there I can add it to a CD layout along with the other songs we are going to use on a Sunday.
I’m still working on the editing of the sermons I record for the purpose of burning CDs and also putting on our website. There are a lot of pauses that I need to take out and I have used Audition to help automate that process. I haven’t quite gotten it adjusted correctly yet as it seems to be deleting too much. I am also looking for a way to do a global delete of certain sounds like the sound many speakers make just before starting a sentence by putting their tongue against the front of their lower teeth and making a “clicking” sound.
I really like your “Skip Selection” option as I use a similar command in Sound Forge to check the area I am about to delete to check continuity before deleting the selection. In fact, I programed my mouse to do that with the push of one of its buttons. Will probably do that in Audition too.
I’m beginning to like Audition more and more each time I use it. Can’t wait to learn Premiere and its related applications!

How can I get iTunes to display the tracks from a CD in their original (album) order?

To be absolutely honest, I don't really understand what this box is for, so I shall just use it to repeat and expand on my question. (I have already sent a "Feedback" comment on the same topic).
How can I get iTunes to display the tracks from a CD in their original (album) order?
It seems to me that there is something very basic wrong with the way iTunes handles CD Tracks.
Professionally produced CD tracks are seldom if ever in a randomised order. Why then does iTunes seem unable to display the tracks in the order they appear on the original CD source - whether from a personally owned CD or from a download from the iTunes Store?
Some music demands a specific, non-alphabetic sequence in order to make sense. Why does it seem that iTunes only offers Alphabetic, or reverse alphabetic order - both of which make a nonsense of the original, often intended order of tracks?
Why not replace the so-called "cover-art" in the bottom left hand corner if the iTunes window - which, while it may look attractive to some, gives the barest of information concerning the original disc, with a list of the original CD tracks in their original order, so that the user can easily reestablish the order in which they should be played.
As I would expect legibility might be a problem with doing this, why could not the original contents, (in their original order), at least, be displayed when the "cover art" is double clicked-on - the result of which at present gives me an enlarged version of the "Cover Art". While on the subject of the contents of the source disc, what about all the album notes which someone takes trouble to write in order to increase the appreciation of the music on the CD and the listener's general background knowledge of the artists involved. Such notes, it seems to me, have considerable intrinsic value in their own account. I would, I think, normally be prepared to buy such "Sleeve notes" - so long as a "taster" was supplied (as it is for the music) - for something like the cost of a single 'Tune" on iTunes.
These two aspects let Apple iTunes down enormously, in my opinion. I think that by chopping even quite protracted sequences of music up into bits does no one any favours - except perhaps Apple's already quite substantial bank balance. People have to be aware that two and a half, to three and a half minutes is a very short time to develop a piece of worthwhile music, and that there are many, many composers, not all of whom are alive today who have written music that huge masses of mankind value for the enrichment of their lives and the human condition in general.
Please make the viewing of iTunes tracks in their correct order by default possible. By all means have the alphabetical variations available as offering a different approach to the music, but not the sole approach to it - PLEASE.
Frustratedly yours
Alan Whitaker
PS I work at my old 24" iMac Intel Core 2 machine which runs OS "Tiger" - because it is more beautiful to look at, the screen is more pleasant to work on, and because, in some ways it is more capable (it will run FreeHand MX without needing a "patch"), than my more recent 21.5" which runs "Snow Leopard". (I don't find it that much slower, either).

Dear Mike
Thanks for the support. I am utterly amazed that after all the hype about how good iTunes is that it cannot play a downloaded CD in the correct order, and that what that order should be is not available directly from within one's own iTunes installation. (I know that one can go back to the iTunes Store to check what the order should be, but having downloaded the tracks surely iTunes is clever enough to retrieve this important information.
My iTunes to differ from yours in that I have also noticed that it seems unable to download copies of my "talking books" in the correct order either. But in my case it downloads them - from a CD - in order, but with the first track downloaded first - so that it appears at the bottom of the column of tracks so that it would get played last! (At least this is, while being inexplicable, a relatively "logical" bit of blundering and because of this is relatively easy to put right!).
I like many genres of music, some of which are not really programmed except perhaps by the artist performing them. I know that Frank Sinatra was very careful to programme his album songs to obtain a particular effect and in relation to the keys of the music. iTunes presumes to know better.
Film scores may be totally randomly put together, in some cases, but in others the order is vital to one's appreciation of the music as a whole and how it relates to the plot of the film.
In symphonic music most works are divided into sections and are conceived by the composer that way. Some individual sections may gain a life of their own if played separately, but they are never complete in the sense that the composer envisaged them without being placed in their proper context.
Opera and probably most choral music too, is similar except that the words may well become meaningless if the order is changed at the whim of a piece of ill-written computer code, while ballet music has to be heard totally within its sequential context or it becomes meaningless.
Finally, I would venture that iTunes, by jumbling up the order of the tracks as recorded on a CD, does an immense disservice, not only to the music on a particular CD, but to music in general, by expressing everything in terms of "Songs" - which it seems to interpret as stand-alone items of between 2 and 4 minutes whatever the genre. Even the way the iTunes publicity speaks of how many "songs" it can store instead of how many minutes or hours of recorded sound. This has to be another brick in the wall of "dumming-down" of people's expectations, and the shortening of their attention spans.
I don't know about anyone else, but I feel betrayed by Apple over this. Perhaps the look, feel and general presentation of an item are not the most desirable features of a consumer product. Maybe it should be judged more on it fitness for the purpose for which it was sold. There is one other possibility - that Apple are trying to redefine "Music" - and that everything that lasts longer than about 3.5 minutes or is in the form of what could for want of a better term be called symphonic in the broadest sense is something else - not "Music" within Apple's new definition, at all!
Well that's off my chest! now I can get down to creating some sort of order in my iTunes Libraries, knowing that I have to reconsult all the sources in order to confirm the source playing order.
Anyway thanks again. At least I know that it is not just me

How do I get a track from iTunes to match the master tempo of my project?

I have a project open and I am adding a track from iTunes, but it does not line up with the tempo, making it impossible to play loops over it. Is there a way to make the tempo of the track match the master tempo of the project?

benfrommason wrote:
so is there a way to mix songs together that aren't the same tempo?
Yes. You have to decide which song is the "master" song that you match the other to. This song has to have the "follow tempo and pitch" option unchecked, the other song has it checked. Then you can use the tempo slider to match the songs to each other.
(I even did it with "Sympathy for the Devil" which has an irregular beat - it gets faster as the song progresses, the folks didn't record with a metronome back then. Using a tempo curve, I was able to match it to a modern, steady-beat song.)

How can I use all tracks from multi-channel source audio with Multicam clips?

I cannot figure this out. Working in Premiere I'm prepping for a 2 camera show, with typically 4 to 6 track dual-system audio recorded by the sound guy. I can sync, and make multicam clips any number of ways–whether sync by timecode, sync by audio, or eyeballing–but whenever I edit using the MC clip, Premiere mixes down all the audio channels into a stereo single track, and I cannot pick and choose which audio track from the original to use. With 2-5 people mic'd on lavs, I need to be able to choose which audio is either cut in or heard at any given shot.
Is there any way to have control in multicam clips over which track of audio gets edited into the timeline, or even: that all tracks of audio get cut in? It's very important for the editors to be able to see waveform (which also disappears for some reason in the mixdown) and pick and choose which audio is heard?
I'm sure this might be a simple fix, but I cannot get my head around it for workflow purposes for my assistant editors. We need to use multicam, but this audio thing is driving all of us crazy. None of us can figure out how to have a multicam clip and use it with control over what audio is cut in.

True, but what I need to be able to do is have my multicam sequence in the source monitor, and cut into my working sequence with either just the audio I need from the sound guy's multi-channel WAV, OR cut in all the sound and from then I can just enable or disable what I need or don't need. But also be able to match back to the Multicam source from my working sequence.
I don't want to have to open the synced sequence, and razor blade the things I need and have to copy and paste into my working sequence in order to have the full spectrum of my multi-channel mono lav WAV files...with their waveforms visible.
Essentially, I want my Multicam clips to load in the source monitor, and the ability to cut them into the working sequence without it mixing down the audio into a single track with no visible waveform–which is what it is doing currently. Can I choose to edit in either ALL of the tracks of the WAV file along with the camera shot I want, or control which audio gets cut in?

What is the best approach to track deleted records

Dear all,
We have build a CMS platform which is based on SQL server 2012 tables structure hosted in Azure.
We have build on top of this some REST API method in order to access data from any type of client application.
The issues we need to solved now is what his the best way to track deleted records in order that client application gets informed through web service about deleted data from our CMS.
We were thinking of 2 path actually :
- having a kind of Ghost table for each of our real table where deleted records will be inserted into ( physical delete ). This would mean adding as many Ghost tables as we have production tables
- Adding a IsDeleted flag to each of our table which will be set to true when a record is deleted from our CMS ( logical delete ). This would means adding an IsDelete field to each of our tables, create and update all our store procedure and web services
in order to taken in account that new filter criteria to fetch our records. Quite huge job
Will there be any other approach ?
We are looking the best solution with minimum impact on our current solution

Your knowledge is enhanced by that of others.

Hello,
@Tom, based on your question
"The question would be what do you need to do with the deleted records and how long do you need to keep them?"
When records is deleted, then I simply want to delete them and informed any client application about deleted items in order to get data in Sync. I will not have any reporting on deleted data !
The only reason of tracking delete tables items, is simply to informed client application through web service sync about the data to be ignored. Client application have a caching database records for performance reason and is is require to not used data
from that local storage which has been reported as deleted by the SQL server on Aure.
Does this make sense ?

In Logic Pro, trying to import a drum track from the bin to arrange area, the 'follow loop' box does not appear in the inspector

imported a drum track from bin to arrange area. It will not follow tempo of the project even though it was recorded in this project. The 'follow tempo' box in the inspector does not appear even though it is present on other tracks in the file.
how do I set up the track so the 'follow tempo' box appears in the inspector?

Don't drag the midi into an open Logic project. The tracks won't set up correctly.
'Open' the midi file with Logic as if it were a Logic project. Then all the tracks will be set up so you can start editing them and applying better saved sounds and instruments, but you'll be at a starting place where you can hear what's going on.
