Two audio interfaces but different uses in one system

Hi,
I have already got an audio interface for recording and run smoothly.
Recently I get another audio interface (M-Audio Firewire 410). I want to add it to my system as a standalone mixer in which the outputs will be connected to 2 another active monitors, the inputs of this "mixer" are connected to audio outputs of a DVD player.
So, I can control the DVD volume by the knob on the Firewire 410 and by the M-Audio software in my Mac but my original audio set up doesn't change.
I mean, the DVD audio signal pass to the Firewire 410 then output to the newly added monitors only,my original monitors will not be affected (no DVD sound).
At the same, if I play mp3 in i-tunes, the music will output to my original monitors only.
Just like two independent audio set up in one system, is it possible ?
Thanks for any help in advance.
Cheers,
edtayin

You need to give complete details of the audio, exactly what is it, how many tracks, what's the channel configuration?
Can you post screen shots of what you're doing and what happens?
In expanding audio components in the timeline I can see what looks like an extra audio clip married to this one on a different track which has no signal, but I can't delete that additional audio clip.
Let's see this and the channel configuration in the audio inspector.

.avi movie with two audio tracks but QT only shows one

I have a .avi file. When I play it in the VLC Player I can choose between two different audio tracks (two different language tracks) but when I open the same file in QT I only get one track and of course it is the language I don't speak. Is there a way to get into this file and delete the track with the language I don't want so that when I open it in QT it plays the right track/language?
If you need more info please let me know.
thanks

I do have QT Pro.
H.264 files are usually saved in a MP4 container. That's what Handbrake, ffpegX, and D-Vision create, anyway.
The "Choose Language" option is greyed out (unavailable) when I open this H.264 MP4 in Quicktime. If I try to change the settings in "Movie Properties," it says that I must save it with the .MOV file suffix.
It makes no sense to me that Quicktime Player can correctly identify the main audio soundtrack in a XviD file with an AVI container but not in a H.264 video with a MP4 container which Apple has been touting as the latest, greatest thing. Even VLC, an open source product still in beta, gets it right.

can differentiate which database to connect,but if
use dynamically register feature,how can the client
tell which database to connect?

Also note that this type of configurtion may not be supported.

I have two apple accounts, but can only access one. I did all the steps to recover the older account's password but nothing worked. I need to access the older account to update apps. Also would there be a way to just combine both accounts?

Were you able to reset the account's password ? If not then how did you try to get it reset e.g. http://iforgot.apple.com (which would have sent it to the rescue email address if you have one on that account) ? You can also try contacting iTunes Support in your country to get it reset : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
And no, accounts can't be merged nor content transferred between accounts.

HR CEE add-ons for different countries in one system

Hello,
is it possible to have HR CEE add-ons for different countries in one system?
Will SAP system work properly? What kind of risks of these imports?
Thank you very much.

A couple of generic answers on add-ons
- of course you can have several add-ons working on the same B1. To understand
the details on how add-ons are started and maintained by B1 desktop pls refer
to the e-learning available here on SDN
- compatibility of add-ons. There is no generic answer to this, it depends on the
functionality and implementation of the two add-ons. Anyway, if two add-ons are
functionally independent and they follow the solution guidelines, then they should
be interoperable. You can find the solution certification guidelines here on SDN
under the ICC section: these rules cover points like namespaces, event handling,
user table and form creation and so on that enforce interoperability.

Using two audio interfaces simultaneously?

Hi
Not sure if this is an unsual query - will Logic recognise two usb audio interfaces of the same make running simultaneously?
Would they come up as interface (1) and (2)? - I know Pro tools does this if you rack up multiple interfaces - however these would not be 'linked' as such..just put into the two usb ports of a mac book.
Basically I have a single stereo out alesis io2 interface, but need to run two tracks independantly of each other into a desk - so wondered if getting another io2 would be a cheap work around...
Thanks for any help.
Matt

Yes, you can set up an "Aggregate Device" in Audio Midi setup, which Logic will then recognize. This support page tells you how:

Same setting for two file adapter but different output

Hi ,
I am having two receiver file adapter for two differrent scenario with same settings but different structure.
I want the output of the file for both the scenario should be displayed line by line but it is working fine for one scenario.File type,file encoding and FCC are same in both the interface except the fieldsnames in FCC.
When i check both the output file i found that the scenario which is working fine having OA OD hexadecimal value at the end of line of each line.and the second scenario which is giving the output in single line is having only OA.
waitng for Valueable inputs!!!
Thanks
Santosh

Hi Santosh,
Kindly elaborate your question.
it would be helpful if you post the content conversion parameters of the erroneous file channel.

G5? OS X.4? - What Audio Interface do you use?

Calling all people with a Power Mac G5, running OS 10.4 (Tiger). - Please list your Audio Interface (Soundcard) here!
(Reason being, I'm looking into getting an Audio Interface, and I'd like to know what works well on a G5 running OS X.4)
Thanks!

A lot of users also seem to like the MOTU 828mkII. I've used it with good results as well. I do own a Digidesign Digi 002 rack, and it works ok I guess. The core audio support is pretty miserable, but it works with Pro Tools. It does still function with logic as well but maintains a pretty high latency. I wouldn't really reccomend it unless you are using pro tools. Good Luck!

Two equal objects, but different classes?

When programming on binding Referenceable object with JDK version 1.5.0_06, I have encountered a very strange phenomenon: two objects are equal, but they belong to different classes!!!
The source codes of the program bind_ref.java are listed as below:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.naming.*;
import javax.naming.spi.ObjectFactory;
import java.util.Hashtable;
public class bind_ref {
public static void main( String[] args ) {
// Set up environment for creating the initial context
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory" );
env.put( Context.PROVIDER_URL, "file:/daniel/" );
Context ctx = null;
File f = null;
Fruit fruit1 = null, fruit2 = null;
byte [] b = new byte[10];
try {
ctx = new InitialContext( env );
Hashtable the_env = ctx.getEnvironment();
Object [] keys = the_env.keySet().toArray();
int key_sz = keys.length;
fruit1 = new Fruit( "Orange" );
     SubReference ref1 = fruit1.getReference();
ctx.rebind( "reference", fruit1 );
     fruit2 = ( Fruit )ctx.lookup( "reference" );
     System.out.println( "ref1's class = (" + ref1.getClass().toString() + ")" );
     System.out.println( "fruit2.myRef's class = (" + fruit2.myRef.getClass().toString() + ")" );
     System.out.println( "( ref1 instanceof SubReference ) = " + ( ref1 instanceof SubReference ) );
     System.out.println( "( fruit2.myRef instanceof SubReference ) = " + ( fruit2.myRef instanceof SubReference ) );
     System.out.println( "ref1.hashCode = " + ref1.hashCode() + ", fruit2.myRef.hashCode = " + fruit2.myRef.hashCode() );
     System.out.println( "ref1.equals( fruit2.myRef ) = " + ref1.equals( fruit2.myRef ) );
} catch( Exception ne ) {
System.err.println( "Exception: " + ne.toString() );
System.exit( -1 );
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
All the outputs are shown as below:

========================================================
I hightlight the critical codes and outputs related to the strangeness with bold texts.
Who can tell me what happens? Is it really possible that two objects belonging to different classes are equal? If so, why that?

It can also depend on how you implement the equals method.
class Cat {
    String name;
    Cat(String n) {
        name = n;
class Dog {
    String name;
    Dog(String n) {
        name = n;
    public boolean equals(Object o) {
        return name.equals(o.name);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Dog d = new Dog("Fred");
        Cat c = new Cat("Fred");
        System.out.println(d.equals(c));
}

Hello, i am desperately trying to get logic to awknoledge my guitar. I am using a scarlet audio interface and have all the software ( i think) and logic is recognising the audio interface but no guitar is coming through.

I am using the scarlett 2i2 and i have my guitar plugged into that which is plugged into my mac book pro via usb. Logic is recognizing my 2i2 (i believe i have all the software downloaded, although i didnt use the disc provided i downloaded it from the internet) and my mac book is recognizing that the guitar is playing. if i go into preferences, then go to sound, input, i can see that it knows the guitar is plugged in. how come i cant get logic to read my guitar?

Kieron,
Look at page 33 of the LPX user guide here: http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1648/en_US/logic_pro_x_user_guide.p df
It explains in easy steps how to fix your problem. You'll find it way more beneficial learning while you are doing than just have someone tell you.

How do I make two audio clips from different mics sound the same in premiere?

I have a video I am working on. we used two different mic and camera options. One is a lavaliere mic that was too hot and picked up a lot of fuzz, and the other was an on board mic that was just a little echoey from the office walls. I found that some clips were better on different versions. so I want to put the two different sets next to each other in video and make the sound be the exact same. That way no one notices the differences in audio.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi. Although not perfect, I'd add an audio mixer effect and adjust the highs, mids & lows on both of them to help their audio, respectively, sound more similar. Often when I shoot, my Boom mike (backup) is much fuller sounding than the lavs. are. Lavs are inherently lacking in the low end, and the boom is often too hot on the low end. So I would add Audio Mixer effect, and lower the low end on the boom slightly, and highten the low and mids just a bit on the lavs. Even taking a little highs off the lavs makes it sound a bit more like the boom.
As far as echo is concerned, you probably can't do to much about that unless you have an external graphic equalizer/limiter. Lot's of times I just add some music in the background, which helps a lot to hide echo from the mics.
Finally if you tape/record/film in a location that has lots of background noise like, background people, cars or rain or wind or general white noise "hiss", then you should record a minute or two of the location without any dialogue. This is is known as "Wala" recording. You can add a little of this to your whole track, or just on the mike track that doesn't seem to pick up the ambient sound, thus making it sound more like your other mike.
I hope this helps.

Pro Users - What Type Of Audio Interface Do You Use?

I'm thinking of upgrading from this cheap usb, and was wondering what are some models/brands people have that they'd recommend? Preferrably something reasonably priced that's still a quality interface (if this is possible)?

you don't say what your 'cheap usb' interface is that you're currently using.. so it's hard to get any idea how many inputs and outputs you want or need. do you require zero latency monitoring for recording? do you want or need digital i/o? what kind of price range are you thinking? do you have a use for something with good quality mic/instrument preamps or do you already have that covered?
my general rule is to go for the absolute least number of inputs and outputs that you need. I believe it's a better idea that your money goes into quality sound for the amount of i/o channels you actually will use, rather than buying some box with 36 simultaneous bad sounding inputs. many people work almost exclusively using software instruments and audio files inside the box, and when they record, it's only one source at a time. and yet they go buy a MOTU 828 or something cos they think for some reason you're supposed to have lots of i/o just in case. but if you're never going to record a drumkit, or multiple musicians playing at the same time, you're never going to need it.
figure out what your needs are first and then narrow down your choice to the best quality units you can afford that provide the i/o you can ever see yourself using. then, ask around to figure out which ones have the best drivers and sound.
if this is for your macbook, then your best bet is to go for firewire. but if you're also using a FW drive for your audio, you're going to want to be careful they'll play nice together cos they're going to be sharing the same data bus.
lastly, if you only ever need stereo in and out.. you might want to consider getting a device that just works using the optical i/o of your machine. then there are no drivers at all, and the sound quality can be extraordinarily good if you can afford a converter like a rosetta.. all that money will go into absolute premium quality, rather than buying tons of channels that will just gather dust if you have no use for it.
