Trying to add another audio track to slide

Hi,
I've got a slide already containing a track that contains
typing sounds. Can I add a second audio track for my narration?
When I try to record, Captivate warns me that it's going to delete
an existing audio track.
Thanks
Bob

Hi, Bob.
The warning is because it detected that you already had sound
established for that particular slide and wants to know if you've
changed your mind. There are dozens of ways to accomplish exactly
what you want. I'll outline some of the things to consider.
The number of sounds and the timing of when you hear them
depends on how and where you add the sounds. You can attach them:
1. As a background audio that runs throughout the entire
movie
2. An audio/narration track at the Slide level (that's the
waveform you may have seen in the time line)
3. An audio clip attached to an "object" such as a Text
caption/HighlightBox/Click Box, success/failure captions etc., etc.
Depending on how you attach them and spread out the objects
on the time line, you can have lots of control over when various
objects appear/disappear in "synch" with the narration.
If I understand your scenario, you could attach the the
typing sounds to an empty "dummy" object so that we hear the typing
and then add the narration at the Slide level. - that's just one
way to do it.
If I didn't understand, ask again.
Thanx,
john

  • 2 yrs worth of music on my ipod nano 5th gen just vanished while I was trying to add four new tracks.

    Most of the music I've put on my ipod nano 5th gen in the last 2 years just vanished while I was trying to add four new tracks. Stuff from before that seems to be still there (I add stuff manually, not sync, and the ipod wasn't full). It was a bit glitchy as soon as I plugged it in to update - threw up a few error messages, decided to verify my ipod a couple of times, After that, once or twice itunes seemed to lose the ipod completely, although as far as the laptop was concerned it was definitely still connected, so i went for the 'safe to remove hardware' option and reconnected...
    I'm guessing somewhere in the midst of whatever was going on there, something got confused or corrupted, but I have no way to tell what... Ipod seems to think it is using less of its capacity now, but I don't know whether to believe it or not!
    Can I get this stuff back? It's not just stuff I bought from itunes, either - things I put on from cds have gone too. I have all the music either backed up or on cds, but I'm not in the same country as my cds right now - also rebuilding all of my playlists and trying to remember what went where is going to be a pain! Is there a quicker way than just doing it all over again?

  • I added a custom ringtone . Then later I tried to add another three set  but now after sync . Am not able to get rid of the first one... It's still there as my custom ringtone. But my iPhone in iTunes shows all four... But the phone shows only one...?

    Paul--you are a life-saver!! Worked great. I did have to look around to make sure I was getting 4.9 instead of 4.7 (even when the file was named 4.9 at techspot.com), but I finally got the right file, did the install as you suggested, and everything is now fine. One note, though, that I haven't seen mentioned in any of this thread: when I first tried to open up iTunes after getting back to 4.9, the following message appeared: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I merely went to the old .itl file that was created when I did the update to iTunes 5, renamed it, moved it over to my now new 4.9, and iTunes opened fine. My library was a few days out of date, because of the few days' lag from the time I did the iTunes update, but that was easily taken care of, and everything's now working fine. Thanks again!!!

  • Add Multi-Audio Track Ability to Flash Export

    When authoring DVDs and Blu-ray disks we have options to add alternate audio tracks which the user can select on the fly or we can add menu options for their selection. This ability is absent in flash exports from CS3.

    Hi
    Not in iMovie as standard (only two alt. - Pic in Pic or Side by Side)
    Work around:
    • Create the MultiClip in QuickTime Player Pro - and import this - or -
    • Create first Pic in Pick as a new iMovie project
    - Export this as a full quality QT.mov
    - Import this into a New Project
    - Add one more Pic
    - Export / Import / Add - and so om
    • Use FinalCut Pro instead - all things like this is so much easier

  • Using Pro Logic X to record. I have several tracks and I'm trying to record an audio track. I have the mic connect to Avalon 737 then into apollo interface. When I record all track are being recorded into that track. I can't just get the audio to record.

    Thanks for responding. Everything seems to work right except for the when I plug into the 737. Ok let me see if I can be more clear. I had this set up done with two representatives of Neumann, and DBox. Here it is I hope this helps. 32 Channel snake (24 Inputs 8 outputs) Channels 1-8 from snake to my Octopre for Drums. From Octropre output quarter inch lines into the Apollo 2, quarter inch input. This is so that the Apollo 2 is taking the drum tracks. Snake Channel 9-12 into Apollo 1 channels 1-4 xlr. Snake Channel 13-16 into Apollo 2 Channels 1-4 xlr. Snake Channel 17 into the 737, output of 737 into Channel 5 of the Apollo 1 quarter inch.
    Ok The Dbox. Sum output L&R into channel input 7&8 of Apollo 1. Apollo 1 output channels 1-8 into summing input channel 1-8 of Dbox. Apollo 1 main L&R going to main analog input L&R of Dbox. Spid out to DAW input of Dbox. I have both ADAT of both Apollos connected by optical wire. Also have port 2 of Apollo 1 into port 1 of Apollo 2 connected by Firewire.  Let me know. Hope I got it right. Thanks for responding.

  • Why do my EMPTY audio tracks playback ANOTHER audio track?

    Why do my EMPTY audio tracks playback ANOTHER audio track?
    Example: A vocal track (audio 2) being played through an empty guitar track (audio 1).
    The vocal track is magically being played through the guitar track with distortion. WHAT possible feature is this good for and how do I get rid of this annoying problem? I looked at the reassign tracks menu and it doesn't say its connected or anything... I don't know if this has been addressed before on this site but I can't find the answer any where on Apple Discussion's website. Please help.
    Thanks

    A key concept to understand is that Logic is more flexible when it comes to "tracks" than most other DAWs.
    For instance, most DAW use a fixed "one arrange track is one audio channel" approach.
    Logic doesn't. You can have many arrange tracks all assigned to the same audio mixer channel (although only one will sound at a time).
    You probably have two arrange tracks assigned to the same audio object (key command "New arrange track with same object") rather than creating a new arrange track together with a new independent audio channel (key command "New arrange track with next object").
    Try this. Hit the + button at the top of the track list, and create a new audio track. This creates a new arrange track and assigns it to the next available audio object.
    Move your second region to this new track - does that work as you expect now?

  • How to add an audio track without scaling?

    I have a 3 minute audio track that I want to add to at a beginning of my 4 minute video clip. I "select all" from my audio mov file, I switch to my main video mov file and the insertion head is at the beginning. When I select "Add to movie" my movie file is now 7 minutes long. The picture is frozen at the beginning of the movie for 3 minutes while the audio is playing...
    I tried moving the insertion input and output and used the "add to selection and scale" command, but it distorts the audio file since the audio file is actually a few hundredth of a second longer.
    Is there any way to copy-paste an audio track without scaling?
    What I want in the end is a 4 minute video clip with just the first 3 minutes with my audio track.

  • HOW TO ADD MULTIPLE AUDIO TRACKS - iMovie '11

    I'm having trouble adding multiple audio tracks in iMovie 11.  I already have an audio track embedded with the video and a separate music track under.  I wish to extend the music track further but need to cut it off at a certain point.  I tried just adding the 2nd music track under the first but when I 'drop' the track it doesn't show up anywhere.  Any ideas or work arounds will be helpful.  Thanks.

    you have to drag the music-clip onto a video-clip - then, iM will add it automatically upon/under the other ones ...

  • How to add more audio tracks to my environment ? i forgot !!

    Hi. I dont see this in the Logic Ref guide.
    In my previous autoload (made through the initial setup assistant) , i had selected 24 audio tracks. My current project requires more tracks , how can i add more tracks to the environment in this project.
    I havent done this in so long , i forgot.
    In the Environment , i choose AUDIO layer , then New Audio Object , i'm lost from here on.....
    Please help. I'll try and find this in the manual aswell.
    Thanks a lot

    Hi
    If you want to do it the easy way:
    Go to the arrange page, go to the smaller menu labelled 'Track' and select 'create multiple' then choose what you want (mono, stereo or audio instrument). Voila.
    This will add the extra tracks to your environment too. If it doesn't happen then check your audio preferences for max number of audio tracks and adjust accordingly.

  • Trying to add spoken audio clip to iMovie with my internal microphone

    Hi, I am creating an iMovie which is comprised of images. I am trying to record poems on my MacBook Pro with the internal microphone, so that I can add an audio clip to the movie. I have OS X, so can't use "Simple Sound".
    Can someone suggest how I can add a spoken audio clip to an iMovie? Do I need to buy new software to utilize the internal microphone?
    Thanks,
    Diana

    Lots of wonderful options.
    Audacity,(http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/mac) is a free audio recorder, that lets you edit out background room noises. Just make the audio file and import into iMovie.
    Imovie 9/11 has a voiceover function, that lets you record your voice. You can import a voice file in iMovie 9 or 11, put beat markers in and then import images that will sync with your markers.
    Imovie 06 (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iMovie/6.0/en/imv1077.html) easily lets you sync images with a voiceover.
    Keynote lets you make a movie by doing a voiceover with your images.
    I participated in several projects doing this kind of digital storytelling, and found iMovie 06 the easiest to use. I suggest, if you have the time, going to YouTube and researching digital storytelling and various forms of iMovie, or going to apple's tutorials. All Macs come with an internal mike that works with included software. Hugh

  • I already had an email acc. But I tried to add another acc, the "add account" cannot use

    I try add an email account, but "add account" is in grey, not black, cannot add. Why? Can someone advise me

    Do you have restrictions enabled? Settings>General>Restrictions>On? If you have it set to on, you may have disabled making changes to mail accounts in which case you would not be able to add another email account.
    If that isn't the case, try the basics ...
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of thebutton.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons

  • Trying to add another DB under SCAN via DBCA "Default listener LISTENER is not Configured in the grid infrastructure home"

    Trying to install another DB under RAC using SCAN listener on a new port.  DBCA gives error "Default listener LISTENER is not Configured in the grid infrasturcture home".
    Have tried srvctl config listener, srvctl start listener to start the listener.  Still not able to get past the DBCA error.  What am I missing?  Do not want to start LISTENER on port 1521 as SCAN is running on 1521.

    No your Database config does use hostname/ip + port or a tns-entry pointing to the local_listener. Neither method does care for the home the listener is running from.
    You will however have to take care of the entries in the clusterware, as the listener is a controlled resource. If you manually relocate it, then it will only work until next restart of crs stack.
    The simplest way to switch the home is by running first netca from database home and delete the listener and then switch to grid home run netca again and create the listener.
    netca will take care of registering it with crs with the correct environment settings. You will have a short period where your rac won't have a listener and therefore won't accept new connections until the new listener is up and running.
    Relocating the current listener requires to modify several parameters via crsctl in the cluster registry, but allows doing this node by node without complete outage.
    If you want to go that way, then create another listener from grid home and compare the settings of current listener and of the new listener. You will need to update several parameter before you can relocate it.
    Run this command to show the current settings and compare it to the listener from grid home:
    crsctl stat res ora.LISTENER.lsnr -p
    You will need to modify serveral parameters, ACTION_SCRIPT,AGENT_FILENAME,ALIAS_NAME,ORACLE_HOME and the ACL
    Modify works like this, for ACL you must use the encasing single apostrophe ' and run it as root:
    crsctl modify res ora.LISTENER.lsnr -attr "ACL='owner:oracle:rwx,pgrp:oinstall:rwx,other::r--'"
    I would recommend Version 1 if short outage is acceptable. For both variants verify that you can resolve all tnsnames entries in both homes.

  • How can I record Audio while listening to another Audio Track?

    I wanted to record a duo with both parts played by myself but I can't get Logic EXpress 8 to let me hear the previously recorded Audio track while recording the second Audio track. I do have an Edirol UA-25 and thought i had it set up to make that possible.
    If any of you know the answer I would appreciate it greatly to have an answer to such a basic operation, or is Logic so far behind that I will HAVE to upgrade to Leopard and buy Protools?

    Hello,
    as far as i know, the advanced mode of the EA-25 requires you to install the original Edirol driver. The simple mode has basic core audio support, but the advanced mode allows MIDI and more than 44.1 kHz.
    However, you shouldn't deselect Advanced, if it works okay - leave it on!
    Just look if the "Digital in" switch is set to off, and set the small selector switch for the sample rate at the back to 44.1 kHz. With these settings, you should be able to play back and record at the same time. If not, the problem is not the UA-25.

  • In Photoshop CC timeline, when I add an audio track photoshop CC either quits working or it skips to the end of the video clip.  If I just put in audio it works fine.  If I just put in clips or pics it works fine, but now when audio is added

    When I try to use the timeline portion of photoshop, I can't get the audio to work with my clips.  I can get audio to work fine when using just audio, but the minute I try to add audio to a set of clips either photoshop quits working or it skips to the last clip in my show.  I don't understand why this happens.  I am using the same track each time.  Very frustrating.
