The audio file 'example' has a 0 bit format and can't be used. What do I do

I get quite a lot of these messages when trying to sample loops and use them, but only certain ones for some reason. I don't know how this could have started to occur and nothing that I tried in any audio settings seems to work. I tried searching for any topics with a similar problem but I can't find any. What can I do to get these loops working again? How do I fix this bit format?

Try this:
download Switch form here http://www.nch.com.au/switch/plus.html (it's free, you have to pay only for the plus version, if you like).
Open the file inside the Switch and convert to another format (like wav, aiff or mp3 too).
Try again to import the file in Logic.
cheers

  • Error message: "The audio file ___.caf has a 0 bit format and can't be used

    I keep getting this error message for a bunch of the audio files in Garage Band 3 that I am trying to use. What can I do to access these files?

    You need to use GarageBand 4 to open them. GarageBand 3 doesn't recognize that format.

  • The audio file "club dance beat 001.caf" has a 0 bit format and can´t be us

    The audio file "club dance beat 001.caf" has a 0 bit format and can´t be used. In Logic Express 7. What the f... means that. HELP

    CAF is a new file format introduced for Logic 8. There's no support in Logic 7. I guess you've tried taking the file from LE8 and used it in LE7. Ain't going to work. Sorry!

  • This copy of the Install OS X Mountain Lion application is damaged, and can't be used to install OS X.

    This copy of the Install OS X Mountain Lion application is damaged, and can't be used to install OS X.

    I attempted to burn a DVD of the installer, but that didn't work (files are too big).
    Also grabbed the ESD from inside the package and it started to work, then hung on the "installing" screen.
    Here is how I finally solved the problem after redownloading it 4-5 times:
    Put my MacBook Pro into target mode and used my Mac Mini to install Mtn Lion.
    At first the installer balked saying it wasn't signed right or some such BS. I tried again and it worked fine. I now even have a recovery parition which I didn't have before.
    So in the end I have no idea what the problem was but it was not:
    A proxy error corrupting the download
    A corrupted download of any kind
    Permissions errors
    Hard drive errors
    Incompatability with RAM or my hardware
    Incompatibility of my partitioning scheme
    I think there is a bug in the "pre-flight" checks the installer does prior to doing its job.

    You do meet the hardware requirements. Otherwise you wouldn't have been able to purchase ML.
    If you're connected wirelessly to your router, connect with Ethernet.
    If you're connecting through a proxy, connect directly.
    Boot in safe mode (shift key down at startup) and try again.

  • My mac only has os 10.4.11 and can i still use a iphone 5

    I have a older power book g4 with os 10.4.11 and want to upgrade my iphone3 to a new iphone 5.  Can I use the new iphone

    Yes, if you have WiFi.  You will not sync the phone and computer.  Set up an iCloud account for backups.  You can buy music and apps on the phone from iTunes and App Store apps.
    On the Mac, turn off iPhone sync in the iTunes Devices preference.  You can then connect the iPhone via USB to the computer and use Image Capture to get photos from the phone to the computer.  You can also email photos from the phone to the Mac.

  • I have been sampling new imported drum loops. And if I adjust region to song or time strecth it updates the audio file in the library. How to stop this? I lost the original setting to one loop. automatically doing it ??

    This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • How do I stop breaks or stutters in the audio file from occurring while editing?

    I am using Captivate 8 but I saw this same problem in Cap7. My narrator recorded the audio while recording the video. He did not record to each slide independently, but instead allowed the software to break the narration at mouse clicks. As the editor, I am cleaning up the audio/video and every time I try to edit the audio it causes a stutter (a small silent section) at some other point in the audio file.
    For Example: The mouse click occurred in the middle of a word, I re-position this frame break, a small gap is created in the middle of a word someplace else in the audio.
    Any editing, even something as simple as changing the volume of the project through the Audio>Edit>Project option, can cause one or more of these brief silences somewhere in the audio. I have tried inserting silence before re-positioning a frame break, but that doesn't solve the problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This is taking 10 times longer than it should to do some simple editing.
    Thank you!!

    In other blogs some mentioned a little tool that stops the video when u go to other pages but it doesn't on Android as the mentioned here

  • Where is the start of the audio file/recording?

    I'm emailing mixdowns to a studio where they will lay the files to movie timecodes that I have specified in a cue sheet. I'm a bit worried that the timecodes are incorrect. The possible issue concerns the start of the audio files.
    I recorded the tracks down to a stereo file, a region, that appears to start in the arrange at the correct point. But when you record, Logic includes some recording before the start of the region, before the Anchor, correct? And my question is this: when the files are opened in ProTools, does Protools see the Anchor, see the start of the region and ignore the bit before the region starts, or not?
    It's crucial, because if it doesn't all my in-points will be out but over a second (by the amount of time before the region start that somehow seems to exist in the audio file.

    Hi
    If I understand the problem correctly?

    This can depend on how you did the "record down to a stereo file".
    If you routed tracks to bus channels, then recorded the bus to another track, Logic will include the count-in in the audio file. As you say, the region in the Arrange will be correctly "trimmed".
    One solution would be to convert these bounced regions to new audio files (Audio Menu), another to use Bounce Region (or track) in Place.
    Alternatively, use a manually placed "2 pop" 2 seconds before the start of each cue.

  • How do I make the audio files on my site download?

    Hi
    In my site there are links to some audio files. When click the links in chrome or firefox, the audio files start playing straight away. In opera the files download. Internet explorer opens the files in windows media player. How can I make it so that when they are clicked they always download, instead of playing inside the browser?
    The only answer that I can find, so far, is zip files. I am reluctant to use that method because zip files compress and compression can do funny things to files.
    Can anyone suggest anything?
    Thanks
    Torhorhilau

    I am reluctant to use that method because zip files compress and compression can do funny things to files.
    Fear not. The zip compression is not a 'lossy' method, it's a simple statistical compression method (when three or more bytes are found adjacent in the file, they are replaced by two bytes, one indicating the repeating value, and the other indicating how many repeats), so the files will decompress exactly like they were before. A good example of a lossy compression would be when you create a jpg image.
    Alternatively, you could force a download with a little server-side scripting. Google "force download". You would need some proficiency in server scripting to use this method, however.

  • Quality manager QMQU0003 The audio file is invalid and cannot be played

    Hi,
    I've client using Cisco QM 8.5. There is a recording dated 21st November, 2011 for one agent which he is not able to play back. The agent took many calls that day and all the recording are getting played back except one. The duration of call in question is shown as 37 minutes but the file size is 0KB.
    The error client gets while trying to play back is:
    QMQU0003 The audio file is invalid and cannot be played
    The recording is important to the client. Can someone pl comment what could be done to retrieve it and what could have caused it?
    I looked at Event Viewer on Agent PC, unfortunatley there aren't any entries since 8th November to 22nd November. The PC was rebooted on 22nd November and all event viewer is getting updated correctly now.
    I am attaching the screen-shot of error in case someone is interested in seeing.
    Thanks in advance,
    inner_silence

    Thought of updating the case with current status.
    Got some help from Calabrio and the engineer identified a known bug in QM 8.5.1 release.
    The Bug ID is: CSCTK75463
    Fix will be in QM 8.5.2.
    Checked CTIService debugs and found that the agent received a transferred call and the customer has Immediate upload turned on. As a result of this they unfortunately ran into the timing issue which is fixed in 8.5.2.

  • I got an error when installing Elements 13 that says, "The file archive part of Adobe Elements 13 is missing.  You need all parts in the same folder in order to extract."  What's goihng on here?  I get this when downloading the 2nd file for Win 8 64 bit

    It never asked for a location to download either file....Also, has anybody figured out how to access live chat with Adobe?  I'm thinking this option in summary of options available is BS as it's all grade out.

    Hi Justme,
    Apologies for your incovinience.
    Requesting you to please go to https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us. When you click on download button (after selecting your OS details), it should open a new browser window (which will launch the Akamai installer automatically). Please cancel any installation or error shown.
    The newly opened browser page will look something like this:
    As highlighted, please click on these links (one by one) and see if it downloads the required files. The downloaded files will be compressed with 7z format. If you have some extracting tool (like WinZip) try extracting it. If you don't have it, download 7z. Its a free utility from Microsoft. Once downloaded and installed, you will be able to extract file and locate the PSE setup. 
    Please let me know if you face any issues.

  • Recording Audio from additional sources:  Why doesn't the "Audio File" show

    Hi, when recording audio from another source and saving: where does logic store the file? Shouldn't it be in the "audio' folder or the set path you set it to>?
    For some reason after we record the "Audio File" we recorded is not to be found in the "Audio" folder we created within our project?
    clues?

    Can you define "from another source". I'll assume for now, you mean, from an external live source, like a vocal, or guitar.
    Yes, if you had saved the song using the "Save As Project" command, the audio path to that songs audio folder should have been set. and all audio files recorded into that song would reside in that location.
    The only thing that you might want to check, is hit "A" with the song open, and make sure "choose path" is set to "Song Recording Path" and not "Global Recording Path".
