Transformer object problem

Hi, my first post!
I'm using a transformer-object in the environment to transpose
some incoming midi-notes in real time.
This works so far, but somehow, all the notes that are played, 'hang'
for some reason, like no 'note-off' command is been given.
Also, when a note is triggered, a second note is triggered at release and
being displayed in the matrix-editor.
Is there anyone who can help me out?
I'm stuck!

You can transpose incoming data using the playback parameters box by deselecting all regions to display the parameters for the MIDI thru and setting a transpose value. Might be less buggy.

How I'd probably tackle it is to filter out all the note offs from the input stream first, do my processing to modify/transform whatever notes etc I needed, and add back in the necessary noteoffs when I finally pass the converted notes to the instrument - this won't in general be a problem with drum voices because they largely ignore note-offs anyway, as drum voices don't generally respond to gate time.
That way I know I always have a matching note-off following a note, and it's easier than trying to process the note-offs separately to match your note on processing, and keep everything in sync.
To generate note offs for a note on event, pass your modified note-on only MIDI stream to a final transformer, and the use "copy matching events" in whichever order you need, leaving the note pitch to THRU, and setting the velocity to zero, so every incoming note will pass through the transformer, followed by it's associated transformed note off.
If you have problems setting this up, post back and I'll take a look...
Edit: Hmm, transformers won't let you fix a note velocity to zero, at least in LP8. That's annoying.
I know I've done stuff like this before - I need to wait until I've got some clear head time to look at this... I think I ended up converting notes into other data types before converting them back into notes, specifically to break Logic's attempt at handling notes atomically, but can't remember offhand...

[svn:fx-trunk] 10229: Fixes for some transform effects problems.

Revision: 10229
Author:   [email protected]
Date:     2009-09-14 08:43:43 -0700 (Mon, 14 Sep 2009)
Log Message:
Fixes for some transform effects problems.
- We were not animating the postLayout properties in some cases where we should have, effectively pinning the object in place. We now animate those properties whenever applyChangesPostLayout is true.
- A copy/paste error meant that we did not animate the scaleZ property in cases where we should have.
- A problem in the transform code means that using a null transform center is not the same as a transform center which uses the transformX/Y/Z properties of the target object. We now force the creation/use of a transform center in all cases to avoid that problem.
QE notes: This breaks about a dozen tests in the transform effects area, but I believe the new results are correct and the tests/bitmaps should be changed.

MIDI Transformer Object

Is it possible to have the transformer object in the environment combine a note and a MIDI CC value and output different notes depending on the range that the CC value falls into? I'm trying to convert the hi-hat output from my V-drums into several different notes. Hitting the hi-hat pad produces the note A#2 and moving the pedal up or down generates data on CC#4 (in order to gradually progress from open hi-hat to closed hi-hat.) Superior Drummer and other plugins support hi-hat CC data out of the box, but I want to use Addictive Drums which doesn't support this. Basically, I want to implement some simple if statements. So for example:
- IF incoming note = A#2 and CC#4 is between 1 and 30, output note X
- IF incoming note = A#2 and CC#4 is between 31 and 60, output note Y
and so on...
Is it possible to do this in Logic? If it can't be done with out of the box environment objects, is there any way to program objects for Logic, or MIDI plugins? I have plenty of programming experience but haven't been able to find much on extending Logic with MIDI plugins.

Again, the answer is yes. Unfortunately, as far as I know, you can't do this in one operation.
IF incoming note = A#2 and CC#4 is between 1 and 30, output note X
IF incoming note = A#2 and CC#4 is between 31 and 60, output note Y
Will have to be done along these lines.
transformer 1: Status = Note: Pitch = A#2: Mode = Condition splitter(True -> top cable)
top cable to transformer 2
transformer 2: Status = Control: Data Byte 1 >= 30 (whichever > means less than; (it's late)): Mode = Condition splitter(True -> top cable)
send the lower cable from transformer 2 to transformer 3
set transformer 3 as for transformer 2 except Data Byte 1 >=60
You could end up with quite a complex chain of transformers. Don't worry; if they are set up correctly, they will do what you want with little or no latency.
I have used these type of commands combined with delays to create a complete arrangement for piano, synths, bass & drums from a single note. It was an interesting exercise.
I hope this makes sense & that it helps you sort out your problem.

Adobe Forms Error Message 'Error when transforming object data'

Transformer serialize problem

Hello
I have a Java application which has a little method to serialize a javax.xml.transform.Transformer into a byte[].
Here is the method:
Object obj = transformer;
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream() ;
ObjectOutput out = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
out.writeObject(obj);
out.close();
// Get the bytes of the serialized object
byte[] buf = bos.toByteArray();
... However, I am getting the following error:
java.io.NotSerializableException: net.sf.saxon.Controller
at java.io.ObjectOutputStream.writeObject0(Unknown Source)
at java.io.ObjectOutputStream.writeObject(Unknown Source)
at .processing.transform.cache.CacheTransformers.addTransformer(CacheTransformers.java:62)
How can I solve the problem? Is there any other way to serialize a javax.xml.transform.Transformer object?
Thanks
Regards

Thanks for your reply.
My main concern is, as you guess, the performance.
When I create the transformer
    Transformer foTrans = tFactoryXML2FO.newTransformer(streamSource);
where "streamSource" is a StreamSource object with my XSLT, the time taken just for this line is more or less 8 seconds (which its a lot).
So, to try, reduce the time taken, I have tried several approaches. One of them is using Caching. For caching, I searched over the Internet and I found Apache JSC. I tried it but I got an error :
"java.io.NotSerializableException: net.sf.saxon.Controller"
This error happens when I try to write the Transformer object into an ObjectOutput (line ***):
       ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream() ;
       ObjectOutput out = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
       out.writeObject(transformer); (***)
       out.close();
     // Get the bytes of the serialized object
     byte[] buf = bos.toByteArray();
        cache.put(key, buf);
        ....Did you understood my problem?
Thanks again

Error creating transformer object after server up for 2-3 days

Our application performs various XSL Transformations and as such it needs to create Transformer objects to perform the transformations. All works fine for several days (usually 2-3 days) then we begin to receive this exception:

We are facing a very similar issue. The ditto configuration and the same issue. This issue disappears when we recycle the weblogic.

Cropping of excess transformed objects

My problem is as follows:
I have created a series of circles starting with a base circle then using two transform operations -- one to copy it down then another to copy the whole set across. So that leaves me with a grid of circles.
I have created an irregular clipping mask to restrict the circles to within the area of the clipping mask (blue sploosh)
Everything looks fine in illustrator. I have included a snapshot here with the clipping mask released so that you can see the objects being worked with.
The problem comes in when I go to copy & past that artwork into photoshop. What I get is the full spread of (clipped) circles which messes up sizing inside photoshop. The clipping mask hid the excess circles but it did not get rid of them. I have further tried using the pathfinder crop tool but that doesn't seem to work with transformed objects. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get rid of the spare inner circles so they are really gone and not simply hidden by the clip mask?

@Jacob
Thanks. That was helpful in that it was the first time I've seen anything which was actually able to destructively get rid of the spares. The downside is that for reasons unknown the "blueness" from the sploosh underneath was removed... or more accurately, the it put a white background underneath the clipped circles. If I turn off the circles group then the sploosh is visible underneath. I fooled around with other options on the Object -> Flatten Transparency dialog and found I got more pleasing results by enabling Preserve Alpha Transparency but the things like the drop shadow just turned awful. I'd be way better off to just manually drag circles around.
That, at least, gave me SOME Illustrator operation that had some effect on the extra circles created by Effect -> Distort & Transform -> Transform option
As you can probably tell, I'm a photoshop guy struggling to learn Illustrator. I find myself partly awed at some of the things it can do and greatly annoyed at silly things like this (and don't even get me started on how awful the bevel options are in Illustrator vs. photoshop LOL).
At least for the short-term I have a working vector image. I can pull it into photoshop, rasterize it, then get rid of the spare bits... or simply ignore them since they are invisible.

Is there a graphics program (such as Photoshop) that works on the iPad ? I need to warp, skew, transform objects. Any advice?

Error when transforming object data HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi
I am running on NW04s. Working on WD for ABAP Interactive forms. whenever I open the Adobe editor thru SFP or Se80, the editor opens up and I am able to do my operations. The moement I hit back button/Save or any other action which involves coming out of the adobe editor, it throws me an Fatal error - <b>Error when transforming object data</b>. I find that in most of the threads there are similar issues which are still open. Any Help would be appreciated.
I have installed ADLC 7.1, xACF04s.

How to keyframe 3D transform objects in Motion

hello,
i cant seem to find how to keyframe a 3d transform object in my project?
i have a text object that id like to spin in 3d but i cant seem to find where to keyframe in the inspector or timeline...
thanks!
steven

hi,
I dont want to appear rude but have you looked in the manual under keyframes?
If you highlight the text object ( maybe better the layer its in in case you want to add more text later),
and hope over to the inspector you can click on the triangle next to the rotation parameter to show all three degrees of rotation. You can add keyframes by clicking the contextual manual to the right of the parameter or by turning on the big red button and manually moving the object.
Or instead of keyframing you could add a spin behaviour to the object.

Transformation Mapping Problem.

Dear BI Experts,
In 0FIAR_O03 to 0FIAR_C03 transformation mapping between 0DOC_DATE to 0CLAMONTH getting below error.
Rule 58 (target field: 0CALMONTH, group: Standard Group): Info Object properties 0CALMONTH
Message no. RSTRAN525
Diagnosis
The properties of the Info Object selected, 0CALMONTH, do not match the properties of the available source field.
But in 3.5 update rule we are not getting any error. How to overcome transformation problem?
And in 0FIAP_O03 to 0FIAP_C03 transformation 0DOC_DATE to 0CLAMONTH mapping done successfully.
Getting data also.
Why problem in 0FIAR transformation?
Please give any solution.
Regards
Ramu

Hi
Is there is any routine was involved in that transformation , may it was stopping to see the actual data, or some time when you migrate from 3.x flow to bi 7.0 flow you will face the transformation ask your abap guy to dedug the transformation so that you can easily now where the exact problem lies.

Smart Objects Problem : Templates : CS3 : WIN

Hello,
I am trying to create some reusable templates in Photoshop CS3 using Smart
Objects. Basically I want to layout the page with some place-holder photos
that are smart objects and then when I need to create a page simply load the
template PSD, right-click on the smart object layer in the layers palette
and choose replace contents. This seems to be possible and even works
sometimes. However, a lot of times the size of the smart object images
change.
For example I could set a smart object place-holder image to be 4 x 6 -
inches at 300 dpi, replace the image with another image and the size will
then jump to some odd size. I even had it once go to 2 x 10 inches. I
thought the whole point of smart objects was that I could replace the
contents and it would be sized, etc. the same. Well that is one point of
smart objects.
Is there a bug? Could the fact that I have layer styles and rotation and
resize transformations applied to the smart object be creating the problem?
Any way around this?
This is Photoshop CS3, Windows Vista, Quad Core Processor, 4GB of RAM, 8 TB
of hard drive space.

Are you perhaps changing the layer order, grouping or some clipping masks? As usual I'm not working with these features a lot and probably shouldn't advise ;-), but I could imagine that this would affect rasterization and how PS may want to update info that no longer is in the place where it expects... I'd also check the "Temp" directory (Documents and Settings\Rachael\Local Settings\Temp). Perhaps it's simply full and the programs are not able to update the temporary files.

Moving scaled objects problem

Hey Guys, hope all are having a great Summer!!
My problem(s)...created a simple graphic, pencil & paint brush drawing (separate, not drawn together nor grouped together) to replace the 2 letter L's in "illustrator. Completed w/no problem, placed where I wanted to use them (a business card), but when I tried to move the word(in approx. 9 pt type) or scale larger I would get this warning... "Can't move the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area."
note: drawings contain a couple of simple 2 color grad., scaling using the "shift>drag" method, also tried to "option>drag" to duplicate! What am I doing or did do wrong?
Working on a mac PPC 2.0, 2gb ram, Illy CS2

PS art board is 8.5x11

OldBob, Thanks for the link!!!! cleaned up stray points regardless, zoomed out like suggested- had plenty of room on scratchboard, however when I selected my design (drawings & type(outlined of course)) I seemed to also select 2 of my guides (which even though locked persisted to select & move with my drawing!) Hit ungroup and the problems went away!!! Don't know really why this happened but well.. WE got it to work!! Thanks so very much for your fast reply!! Les

Transform objects on (de)serialization

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible in principle to transform/mutate/repack an object to another object such that it belongs to a different class.
Scenario: I want to pass a list of groovy objects POGOs to an applet. These groovy objects however have groovy.lang.GroovyObject as its root parent and not java.lang.Object. I don't want to have the applet load the whole groovy runtime and I want to avoid an extra repack step. So the idea is that the serialization (writeObject(), readObject()) does the magic of transforming the POGOs (Groovy) to POJOs (Java). Is that possible or are there some fundamental barriers?
Thanks
fatzopilot

Hi ejp,
thanks for the hints. I use writeReplace() {return new BrokerObject) in my class (which is serialzable and has a fixed UID) on the server-side to generate a broker object that then should be passed to the client. The broker object is defined in an external jar which is in the classpath of the client (javaFX) and server (groovy/grails) project. It is marked serializable and as well has a fixed UID. However, I get an
{code}
java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling return; nested exception is:
java.io.EOFException
at sun.rmi.server.UnicastRef.invoke(UnicastRef.java:173).
on the client side.
What puzzles me even more:
When I usewriteReplace() {return this.toString())
{code}
I can receive the resulting String without problems on the client side.
However, when I use
writeReplace() {return new String(this))I also get the above error.
It seems, there is some kind of incompatibility when a new Object is created. Any ideas?
Cheers
