Syncing Finale06 aif files with logicPro7-temps differ

I need to put together an arrangement for my orchestra. I have created a file in Finale 06 and saved it as a .aif file. When openning this file in Logic7 I am having difficulty syncing with the loops and files that I play along with. I saved the original tempo as 138bps and loaded it into a new file that was 138 bps in logic7 but they are not the same i.e., beat one is not the same and the tempo is off. I admit that I am very new to this program and I am currently studing the Apple training series, but as ever I need to get this project moving.
Any suggestions on how I can transfer finale 06 files for sync with logicPro7
imacG5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

timecode generator simply creates a constant clock reference that will lock up 2 or more audio/video sources so that they are exactly in time at all times. in the old days it would constantly vary the speed of the motors in, say, a video tape or DAT tape to make sure that they were all playing at the same speed and at the same time. eg laying back of a soundtrack onto video. there would be a TC track on the video and the DAT machine would follow it making sure that its one TC track matched the video. thus everything would sync exactly.
you can use wordclock, which just creates a sample rate frequency to sync together audio interfraces or prevent "jitter" in a single one.
you can buy standalone generators, some more advanced midi interfaces come with TC generators. you can get logic to listen for MTC midi TC which will be easily accurate enough for your needs. its probably your best and cheapest solution. the thing is, i don't know if finale has syncing facilities. if it doesn't getting your system to follow an external timing source such as wordclock maybe what you have to do. a typical example of a wordclock generator is apogee's "big ben". you are unlikely to spend that sort of money - it is high end kit. just shop round and try and find the cheapest you can.
if finale does have syncing facilities, then MTC is the best and cheapest solution. buy a cheap generator and stick it into your midi interface. set the programs logic/finale to follow. voila.

I have all my music on an external hard drive. I just transferred all my files to a new hard drive . How do I sync all my files with my itunes library without losing all my playlists etc and keep everything intact?

Launch iTunes with the Option key held down, click on Choose Library, and specify it. If the external drive doesn't contain the iTunes database files, create a new library there and import that music.
If the library contains any rented movies, they won't play on a different computer.

Work flow for syncing separate Audio files with Video files in FCP

It may be too late for me to use this workflow that I want with my current project, but I need to figure out what it is anyway for future reference.
Right now I'm editing a movie which is near completion. When we recorded the movie, the camera's deck recorded reference audio from the sound guy at 48k @ 16bit. This audio also went through an additional set of preamps which added a small amount of noise. So we don't want to use the reference audio because of it's low resolution and less clean audio. The sound guy recorded straight to his deck at 48k @ 24bit, besides the better resolution, his audio is noticeably better.
The camera deck and 'clapper' (I think that's what you call it) were not connected or synced. So the video files and the soundsguy's audio files are slightly different lengths, but at least have a 'clap sound' to manually sync to. And I don't mean that the audio and video files won't play in sync with each other, I mean that the soundguy always started recording before the camera, so his audio files have slightly different start and stop times.
Could I have synced the audio files with the video files before I started editing this project? If so, could it have been in the way that the soundguy's audio would be connected to my video files while editing? What would that procedure have been?
My current workflow right now is I have my finished sequence, I change the bit rate to 24 in Sequence Settings, and start manually dragging the soundguy's files to the sequence for every little edited clip. This is going to take forever, there are 99 scenes in this movie. Anyway, at the end of the day these sequences are exported as .omf files and imported into Pro Tools for audio post production.
I was not thinking to figure this out before I started editing the movie, this is unfortunate, a newb move in a decent production.
Anyway, I don't know if there is a standard for this situation or if I just opened up a can of worms for many possible workflows. Please comment if you have experience in this area or please refer me to any reading material.
Thanks for your time!

The normal workflow (besides manually syncing up before editing!)
is to have ' some ' way of auto syncing the clips.
So you must have common timecode.
With external audio, you can slave the cam's TC to the TC output of the BWF recorder.
Then you can use BWF / QT merge (one of my apps) to sync them, or use Sync 'n Link.
(another third party application)
If it is not possible cause you're shooting with a cam without a TC input, you can record the TC output on one of the audio tracks of your cam, and use FCPauxTC reader to decode the beeps and translate that to QT TC, and again use the former tricks to sync them.
It is difficult when you have never done it, but very easy once you get the hang of it, and it saves a huge amount of time to do it right from the start.
Have a look at the FCP aux TC reader here:

Sync 'n Link can be found here:

Sync multiple audio files with RED files using timecode

For a prodject i need to sync 100+ RED files with 100+ audio files. The RED camera and the external audio recorder are locked by Timecode.
Now i know the option to sync the files with merge clips. But this option works only for one clip at the time! And i have a very shot deadline.
Is there a faster way to do this in PremiereCC??

Not yet.

Problems syncing Apple Lossless Files with iphone 3.0 and 3.1.

I recently started having problems with syncing apple lossless files with my iPhone 3G. They were recording I made using Logic Pro and the same as have been working with no problem since I got my iPhone last year. Although the songs would play and indicate the correct total time in iTune, on the iPhone they would indicate a total time of over 2 hours even though they were 2-3 minute long. The same files converted to mp3 did not have this problem. Since updating to iTunes 9 and 3.1 on the iPhone, the problem is worse. The Apple Lossless format files do not show up on the iPhone at all even though they are fine in iTunes. mp3 format do not have this problem.
Anyone else having the same issues?

Hi Allen,
I would like to thank you very much for your help with Forte 3.0 and WTK 1.0.1 beta.
Thank you for the pointing me to the ForteJ2MEGuide.pdf file. It is very useful document.
However, even following it I did not succeeded in accomplishing my task.
I was able to follow the instructions and create, compile and run the Hello midlet which
was generated by the IDE. My previous problem related to the fact that I did not create
project and midlet suite for the midlet. After doing all of that the generated midlet worked. However, it was not what I wanted.
First, the instructions in the guide only described how to generate new midlet. I tried
to add the existing midlet to the current project. Unfortunately, the IDE always picked
up the generated template, not my code.
Second, when the generated midlet started to work, it was difficult to debug it. I set
up the breakpoint, but the IDE did not stop at it. I think the reason is the compiler
did not have debugging flag set up. Do you know where it is possible to set it up?
So, at the end I still cannot accomplish very simple task which should not be very
difficult at all:
1. Use my own code to create a midlet.
2. Compile and execute the midlet and see how it runs in emulator.
3. See step-by-step execution of every line of my code and the value
of every variable in the code.

How to properly sync own video files with played / unplayed state?

Since iOS7 (I think) the Videos app on iOS is no longer showing the "unplayed" blue dot next to a movie files that I have added manually to iTunes.
In old iTunes versions, at least iTunes showed me inside the library view which movie files had been played with the blue dot.
Now with the Yosemite Upgrade and new iTunes, when I go to "Movies" (left hand side icon) then on the middle section on "Home Videos" then I get my old listing of video files, but there is no played/unplayed state icon. There is a column "Plays" and "Last Played", but those do not indicate if the video was watched fully or only just a second of it.
When going to my iPhone sync view however, the seen/unseed blue dots do show up. But in that view, I cannot delete video files. Usually I delete videos files after I watched them, and currently it is impossible for me to delete the video files, as I cannot see which ones are seen. Plus, on the iOS Video app in iOS 8.1, I still cannot see which videos were played - on top of that, when I delete a video file from there, and sync my iphone, it actually copies the video file to the iPhone again :-(
Any thoughts, apart from "Dude you have a wacked workflow"? ;-)

Hi,
in relation to on to the above could you please share some thoughts on using AUSST in an enterprise environment spread over 50 countries i relation how to setup the AUSST, taking WAN Lines into considerations. We are using SCCM for application deployment and patching. Is there a comparising model for AUSST vs. SCCM?
i Get the picture using AUSST in a company with one huge Building using the LAN capacity, but what technologies are used to replicate over WAN etc?

File to RFC to File with BPM Scenario

Hi all,
 I am trying to implement a Sender File ( async ) to RFC (sync ) to Receiver File with a BPM. I using the blog https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/1926. [original link is broken] But it doesnt work. First message FileRequestOut is correct in SXMB-MONI, but the second is showing a error. I checked in SXMB-MONI-BPE and I say in workitem is follow message:
Message Error Workflow

Work item 000000001714: Object CL_SWF_XI_MSG_BROKER method SEND_SYNCHRON cannot be executed

I configured my BPM scenario in this way:
( Sender File Adapter )

Third Step

 I have changed it, many times and I can get solve it. About my configuration objects, I think it is ok, because a tested my Interfaces in Configuration Test Tools it was ok. ( Receiver Det. Interface Mapping, etc)
 I have seen in SDN, this error maybe Sencond Step must be Synchronous e Third Step must be Synchronous too. Is it true? In other hand, I have seen, it is possible to use a Async / Sync Brigde.
 Could you help me about this problem?
 Thanks for help

 In BPM did u used as
 Recive Step Async
 Synchronous Send Step
 Send Step is Async
 it is possible to use a Async / Sync Brigde.
 No need to use Asyn Sync Step for this
Assign poins if u found hepful

Can't Replace (Relink) AIFF files with anything.

Hi there,
using FCPx 10.0.9 on 64 bit iMac which runs like a top.
I used some AIFF's in a session before experiencing and confirming here that even when using optimized media, they upset our finicky FCPX.   I converted the files to WAVs used relink (and create optimized media again) to replace them, and everything was fine.
Somehow the files have become unlinked. The Event Browser files still show as AIF files in the Event Browser (and in the Relink dialogue window,) and when I try to relink them to the WAV versions, it *seems* to work at first. The progress bar for "Confirming compatible format type" or whatever finishes quickly & disappears, then the file name is no longer in the Relink window. Great right?
Only nothing has changed in the Event Browser or Timeline. I seem to have trashed the original AIF files once the WAV's worked, but I have even tried converting the WAVs *back* to AIFF's and tried to relink to those just to see if relink worked at all, and yeah, no.
Totally stumped, and a bit worried. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Brian

Doing "Show in Finder" for the AIFF files brings up aliases in the Event's Original Media Folder.   Based on some file path remnants it's now looking like I actually imported the AIFF's (converted in iTunes from mp3's) directly from an iTunes folder in which I created them (and tagged them as a single album,) whereas I thought I had imported them as optimized media. That would confirm why the AIFF's were wonky. Anyway those files / album / folder have been deleted through iTunes, which I would have done assuming the WAV's were securely in their place.
The WAV'es *were* imported with optimized media setting, as evidenced by the real files - not aliases - being in the Original Media folder. (WAV's originally created in iTunes before optimized import.)
So yes WAV versions are in broswer and fully available. How would I replace the AIF files with the WAV's, I assumed relink was the way to do that. Or do you mean replace the edit pieces in time line.   I don't know how I would do that to get all the time codes to match - dropping the full clip over the edit piece gives a number of options but I don't think any will replace with same in and out time code, unless I'm mistaken.   Also I would like to confirm that my Relink can still be functional.
I did try one more thing, which was to delete one of the WAVs from the Event, then trying again to link to it again - thinking maybe the AIFF couldn't link to it because it was already associated with a clip in the Event.   It didn't work.   Also if it had it wouldn't explain why when I try to link to a newly created AIFF version, it will not link to that either, despite identical file names.

Out of sync audio file with video

I have a audio clip that was recorded seperatly from video. I add the audio track which is voice to the video that I have of a person giving speach. I line them up where speach begins and is in sync but say 10 mins into it the clips are out of sync! They should both be in the same time but they are not, how do I fix this?

Once you've determined answers to David's queries,
you will have a better idea of ways to fix
this...i.e. if the audio rates are not aiff and
exactly 48.0Khz/16bit, you could export the audio
into a new file with those parameters and replace
current audio with this file.
Actually, I tried that last night as well after reading this forum. I sent the good audio (aif) to SoundTrack Pro and resampled the file at 48khz to match the sequence settings. Unforunately, this still did not fix the problem.
I also looked at changing the base timing rate from 29.97fps to 30, but I coudn't see a way to change this. I tried changing it from the Advanced settings from the Sequence Settings Dialog, and I can change to 30, but it then gives an error message that it cannot do that.
The idea of a speed change is one I hadn't thought of, but I am doubtful of the results. I seem to be either stuck with bad audio or arduously cutting up the audio every 5 minutes to get it back in sync at those intervals.... I wish I understood why this is happening. It doens't make sense to me.
I still think it has to do with drop frame/non-drop frame, since I was told the whole point of 29.97fps was t solve an audio sync problem. When the audio isn't coming from a video source recorded or captured at 29.97fps then we are going to have sync problems. The question is, now to get it back into sync with these external audio source files, without a lot of headache.

How do I get the sync of my 3GS on my computer to transfer everything (files, apps, etc.) to my new iphone4? And then how do I move the sync to a newer computer so I can sync the new phone with the new computer?

How do I get the sync of my 3GS on my computer to transfer everything (files, apps, etc.) to my new iphone4? And then how do I move the sync to a newer computer so I can sync the new phone with the new computer?
My 3GS is dying and it's synced to an older computer. I have tons of datafiles as well as apps, music, text messages, etc. that I need to get moved to the new iphone4 I'm getting. Then I need to move the sync to a newer computer so that I can sync the new phone and new computer.
I understand how to get my apps to transfer to a new pc. That's not the issue. It's getting ALL the data from the 3GS to the 4 and then to a new computer.
Thanks.

Thanks much, that's very helpful for step one (getting old phone onto new phone). Very clear.
However, I still have the problem of moving to the new computer. How do I move the sync to the new computer after the new phone is set up?

Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
Have a nice day!

I just got an iTouch and whenever I try to sync it to iTunes it keeps poping up with a message that says something like "cannot sync or read file". What should I do?

Well I forget the exact keys, but believe pressing and holding down CTRL before clicking Restore will allow you to browse and find the backup file (may be wrong).
In the end, as far as the iPhone thinks, it is a new computer so it will erase and resync stuff and as long as you loaded everything back into iTunes all should sync back. Main issue is other stuff like the data within the apps, notes, etc that are part of the backup which is why you would want to try to restore from the backup. If you don't mind losing data in apps (eg: do you care you have to relog into some apps and start over, don't care about game scores, etc) then you don't have to worry about the backup. If you have important data in some of those apps then you will need to restore from the backup.

When I sync PDF file "with links" to iPad i lose my images.

When I sync a Adobe File (which includes links) to Good Reader or any other PDF Reader from my MacBook Pro to iPad, I lose my images. Tried to save down to Adobe 6 and 7 but still now success. Someone posted earlier to go to Preview and save as JPEG since iPad has issues with JPEG2000, however then I lose my links. Does anyone have a solution? My Adobe file is already 13MB and I would like to keep the size down as much as possible.

You likely need support from Adobe. The Apple User Guides are made with Adobe InDesign and they work fine with hyperlinks and illustrations in iBooks and GoodReader.
