Trimming multi-layers at once? Add effect to many layers at once?

I know I've seen this in the manual, but I am lost today...
Multi-layers in a sequence with different end points. I want to highlight all of them and have them trim to a common spot on the timeline. How to?
Also, can I highlight a group of layers and a apply an effect to the ends of all of them at the same time? Ex: Four layers on top of each other all end at once. I want to add a dissolve to the ends of all of them in one move. Can it be done?
Thanx!

mark i/o on timeline and press delete key to delete auto-selected layers. press command key while selecting end points then place transition on all selected points just like you would do for one selected point or nest sequence and trim/roll/apply transition to end of nested sequence.

  • Any way to import multi-layered Illustator file into Motion?

    I have an Illustrator map of Europe and i would like to bring it into Motion.
    I know that Motion can import Illustrator files as pdf but is there any way to import a multi-layered illustrator file into Motion. I just saw this web site regarding a Motion plug-in that claims to do just this:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/16298/layerlink

    Without a dedicated plug or FxPlug, Motion has no inherent ability to parse Illustrator layers.
    We just bust the layers out and save them as individual files. Or, of course, we use After Effects.

  • Do you have to add effects to Logic Pro X loops when mixing a song?

    Hi everyone,
    I have a question that has been puzzling me and I cannot seem to find an answer for! I have searched high and low on the internet and still cannot find the answer and so I would be grateful to everyones help with this issue.
    My question is that you hear so much about the fact that when you are recording and mixing a track that different instruments for example the Bass Drum and the Bass guitar occupy similar frequencies and we are told that this is why you have to add effects to these instruments when mixing but what I want to know is are they talking about just organic instruments like real drums and a real bass guitar that you manually play and record to Logic Pro X`s audio tracks? Or should you treat the Loops exactly the same? And should you also add effects to the Logic Pro X loops when you are mixing those specific tracks?
    For example if I add a Drum Loop or Bass Loop to a project and then start mixing the song should I add any effects for example EQ, Compression to these Loops? And what would be the best effects to add to the Bass and the Drums when mixing to help them stand out in the mix?
    Many thanks.

    Whoever told you that overly generalized rule, please stop listening to that person .
    The way you post your question (and they are good questions) points out a big problem nowadays. There is so much cookie cutter solutions out there like if you have this, then use that, if you want to get this sound, press that button. The problem with that is that you you often have no idea why you are doing that in the first place.
    Let me give you a simple example about gardening (sorry about that). If I grow tomatoes and look up on the internet how often to water them, I can find an answer "water the tomatoes once a week". I might do that and result is that the tomatoes will die. What I didn't take into account is that the advice was given from someone growing tomatoes in Russia, and I live in California where I might need to water them once a day. So, the answer you are looking for is not "how often to water the tomato", instead you have to learn how much water, depending on your climate, the tomato needs"
    Your music is the tomato. So the question is not what button to press (how often to water), but what button needs to be pressed, depending on your specific recordings (your climate).
    If your bass drum and and bass guitar are more further apart frequency wise, then there might be no need to EQ them, it depends
    Nobody should or could tell you what to do, unless he or she sits next to you at the mix and "hears' what is going on and what needs to be done.
    Don't get me wrong, I don't say that there is a lot of great advice and general guidelines out there. The problem is when you apply that blindly without knowing a little bit why that advice is give and how to apply that, or if it applies to your situation at all.
    In addition: The skills and knowledge about the theory is as important as the skills and experience of listening and judging your recording/mix and decide what action to take.You have to learn what to listen to and what you hear. If you don't know how distortion sounds then you miss out on fixing that issue. If you don't know how a pumping compressor sounds, then you miss out on fixing that issue.
    I think you get the idea
    Hope that helps

  • Where to find multi-layered maps???

    I'm making a documentary about WWII. Can anyone tell me where I could find a multi-layered map of 1930s Europe with each country on its own layer, like that when I do the spill effect illustrating the invasions of Poland, etc, the spill effect will pour into each country at a time.
    Thanks very much in advance,
    - Nicholas

    I could be wrong, but I would suspect that you will not find such a thing anywhere. But it would be a simple process to make your own in Photoshop or equivalent image editor.

  • I have garage band ver 10.0.2 and am trying to add effects to an audio track but i have no info button or track info under the track tab.  How do i get these things to show up on my program?

    I have garage band ver 10.0.2 and am trying to add effects to an audio track but i have no info button or track info under the track tab.  How do i get these things to show up on my program?

    In GarageBand 10.0.2 you can no longer add all kinds of effects freely; this GarageBand '11 feature has been discontinued. Pick one of the predefined patches that already has the effects you want.
    However, you can add effects from the predefined audio units.
    You'll see the predefined effects on the track, when you open the Smart Controls. To add audio units, click the button and enlarge the the smart controls pane by dragging the dividing line to the Track Area upwards.

  • Add effects to video does not work

    I have a motorola ROKR E6 I am able to use it as a webcam in ichat on my mac mini. But when I try to add effects to it iChat says connection problem. I tried this on photo booth as soon as I launch Photo Booth while ROKR is connected Photo Booth crashes. But if the ROKR in not connected it does not crash. Is this problem with my iChat or is the problem with ROKR E6?

    IS the Logitech camera in either of these two tables
    http://www.ecamm.com/mac/iusbcam/configs.html
    If so on the right does it say it needs a Mac Driver (macam or ioxperts or possibly branded from Logitech)
    Or does it says it will work with the Mac OS after 10.4.9 ?
    IF it needs a driver have you installed it ?
    This will allow at least iMovie to see the camera.
    This is because iMovie can see many formats of Video signal.
    iChat can only see DV imput (or converted imput from certain USB cameras)
    When the camera is a USB one it will fall into two categories.
    1) the Newer UVC (USB Video Class ) Compliant cameras that the Mac OS 10.4.9 and above can use in all apps
    2) those that are not USB Video Class compliant that need a driver.
    The for iChat to see the second group you also need the iUSBCam utility as well as the Mac Driver.
    Are you talking about the Logitech or the Mobil phone camera ?

  • Importing Multi-Layered Photoshop CS2 files...

    Hello again everyone. I trust you are all well.
    I am currently constructing some tutorials for my Video Editing class and I am trying to demonstrate how to import and use Multi-layered Photoshop CS2 files inside Final Cut Express 2.0.3.
    Here is the problem:
    My iBook is running Final Cut Express 2.0.3 but does not have Adobe Photoshop CS2 on it. My DELL PC is running Adobe Photoshop CS2 and I am creating my PSD's on that and then transfering those PSD's across to the iBook with either my USB stick or my iPod.
    Now according to the Final Cut Express 2.0.3 Help file, "When you import a layered Photoshop File into Final Cut Express, the file becomes a sequence in your project".
    However, when I import my PSD, that was created on my DELL in Photoshop CS2, into Final Cut Express 2.0.3, it does not import it as a sequence, but as a flattened still image.
    Is this because I need to have Photoshop CS2 installed on my iBook for the PSD to be imported correctly as a sequence, retaining the layers, or is there a compatability issue with creating PSD's on a PC and then trying to import them into Final Cut Express 2.0.3?

    Thanks for your quick reply Tom!
    I had a feeling this might be the case after I did some more testing with Photoshop files created on a MAC. If I resave those PC Photoshop files on a Mac in Photoshop, they import correctly as a sequence into Final Cut Express.
    Thanks again for the advice!

  • Cant add effects to text in Premiere CS6

    Hey Guys,
    I'm trying to add noise to some text in Premiere Pro 6 but no luck, I used CS5 before this and all was fine, I could just drag effects onto the text and all was fine.
    Am I doing something wrong? Is it add effects to still, or default roll? Do things work differently in CS6?
    Thanks for the help!

    Am I doing something wrong?
    Well...exactly what are you doing?

  • Multi-Layered Image reopens as blank layers with no work done.

    Hi!
    My Quick Selection tool was acting weird, so I saved my multi layered image but when I reopened the image, there was no work saved. All that showed up were blank layer after blank layer with the names I had put in. What happened to the amount of work I put in?!!?!?!?!?!? Is there a way to recover alllll my work? Please Help!!!!
    Thanks,
    Lynn

    Thank you both for your answers.
    In the meantime I researched further and found exactly the issue and a workaround. The issue is only with 16 bit psd files and has to do with alpha channels as you both mentioned. Now, I would disagree that this is acceptable behavior Leonie. In my opinion this is a serious bug but anyways.. 
    A workaround is to place an all white alpha channel exactly after the RGB channels and BEFORE any other alpha channel as suggested here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2708851?start=0&tstart=0
    This is working (contrary to what is said in the above post) but be patient with the previews as they take ages to update.
    Trying to automate this I've made an action to create the alpha channel and used the script manager to run it when a new document is created. Now this does not work because the document is created in Aperture when pressing 'open in external editor' and the event is skipped. I instead had to associate the action with 'open document' which of course means that I will have an alpha channel created every time I open a document..
    I made the action so it names the channel 'bug fix' so I will just have to clean up every now and then.. I may choose to activate the action with a shortcut instead and have to remember every time I create a new document.
    Anyways, a bit of an annoying bug and seems to be around for quite a while. Hopefully Apple is going to fix it at some point.

  • Can ATV play multi layered video track .mov files?

    Hi all,
    Front Row 2 cannot play multi layered video track .mov files for now,
    so I wonder if an ATV take 2 can play .mov files with 2 or more video track?

    yeah, so far, it looks like it has to be pretty vanilla. Only a single h.264 track and an audio track.
    The new 5.1 rentals supposedly have 2 audio tracks - stereo for devices that can't handle 5.1 via HDMI and presmably to give stereo audio out via the RCA sockets, and the 5.1 passthrough.
    It may be that with time more fucntionality will be added to movie playback, but I'm not holding my breath.

  • Why are Aperture Add Effect options grayed out?

    Hello. I just bought a new iMac and moved all my data in from a Time Capsule. I frequently select "all images" and use the Quick Fixes option within Add Effect under the photos tab on the top left corner of the screen to run a batch process. But now when I try it all of the options are grayed out. I can highlight a couple of images and the option is available where normally running a batch is a non-issue. Thanks in advance for any ideas and help.

    But now when I try it all of the options are grayed out.
    Are all Adjustments greyed out, or only the effects in the in the "Effects > Quick Fixes" menu? And does it only happen, when you are trying to adjust more than one image?
    Check these possible reasons for disabled adjustments:
    Are you in Quick Preview mode? Then no adjustments will be available at all.
    If the Quick Preview button is highlighted, disable it.
    Do you have "Primary only" enabled? (the framed "1" button to the left of the Quick Preview button). Then deselect it.
    Hello. I just bought a new iMac and moved all my data in from a Time Capsule.
    How did you restore from your Time Capsule?
    Are your images showing any "arrow" badges?

  • Multi layered drill down

    Post Author: twowheeler
    CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
    Hello,
    Is there a way to do a multi layered drill down without having the Enterprise version?  I have the trial version of Xcelsius 2008.
    e.g., I have expense bar chart for a 5 hospitals.  If I click on one of the hospitals, I'd like to have this drill down to the departments for that hospital and show a bar chart by department.  Then, I'd like to be able to drill down on a department and show a bar chart by account.
    Is this doable with Xcelsius 2008? 
    Thanks!

    I think it would be better if u create a htm page to simplify drill down on xcelsius.You could create links on XCelsius.
    good luck
