Use Logic Express for quadrophonic sound project??

Hi,
I'm very happy with LE9 so far, but now I may have to do a quadrophonic project... anyone ever done that with LE9?? I can imagine that I could achieve something by using 4 busses, and mixing using 4 sends on each track... or are there better tricks??
At least I have 8 outs on my firewire interface, so I suppose that will do the job.
Thanks in advance,
Jaap

Hi,
problem solved Now I know more details about mixing quadrophonic audio, and about this specific project, I decided to go for Logic Pro...
Regards,
Jaap

Should i use Logic Express for Mixing and Mastering?

recording an LP with GarageBand. are express and pro very close in what they offer ? express good enough for mixing and matering an LP? would like to keeps costs down. thanks SJM

It can be done, but you will need to do a lot of reading and make many mixes to get it down. Mastering is not something you can learn overnight. It'll take you many hours of trial and error just to get something that is OK. A pro mastering engineer has years of experience and thousands of dollars worth of high quality gear. With a lot of practice, you can get something fairly decent, but it won't be like a real pro job would be.
As Hangtime suggested in the GB forum, do a google search and you'll get a lot of sites with articles on the subject of mixing and mastering.

Can you use logic express on a mac mini for recording

Can i use logic exprees on a mac mini for recording? Ive seen alot of 8,12, and 16 track recorders with a cd burner and it seems like a logical and more productive gues for me to buy a macmini for the same thing of recording and then I can uses logic express, a far better program for recording. can the mac mini handle the load of processing tracks and how much ram should I uses? thanks tim

sorry, I'd like to butt in here:
I would like to do the same thing, so I am curious about this forum and rather than starting a new one, can I get some advice on this possibility:
Mac Mini
1.83GHz Intel Core Duo
2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM - 2x1GB
80GB Serial ATA drive
Glyph External HD 250 Gig
Mackie Onyx 1620 w/Firewire
Logic Pro 7.2
thoughts?
The most number of tracks I could see at once would be 16.
Here is something I am most curious about...
Firewire Hard drive
Firewire Interface/mixer
Firewire camera for FCP
to much firewire?
Please let me know if you have other thoughts aswell...

thanks guys, this forum is fantastic!

Using Airport Express for External speakers and Apple TV. When I'm on MAC computer adn using internet sound from Internet does not go through external speakers. Instead it comes out of Mac computer speaker. Why?

Using Airport Express for External speakers and Apple TV. When I'm on MAC computer adn using internet sound from Internet does not go through external speakers. Instead it comes out of Mac computer speaker. Why?

As far as I know, the Airport Express only transmits sounds via Itunes. So every other sound (internet, but also incoming mail) will be coming out of your mac instead of your external speakers.

Sountrack or Logic/Logic Express for voice over recording?

Hello,
I am wondering which software is best for voice over work? Sountrack or Logic/Logic Express?
Any input would be great. I would add the standard effects/filters to certain voice overs and add sound effects and music.
I have a midi/guitar and garage band is enough for me. I would not want to use Garageband as my software of choice for voice over work. I want markers and other more advanced tools?
Thanks,
Erik

Thanks for the answer.
I was looking at the Dialogue Tools in Sountrack and they appear to be perfect.
My main questrion is can record into Sountrack with a mic right? I have an m-audio saphire with a m-audio preamp.
I saw a demo of Soundtrack at NAB and all the effects looked perfect for voice over. I think Logic Studio is overkill but Sountrack and Logic Express( for my guitar) might be a perfect 1-2 punch. I will get Sountrack with The Final Cut Studio as I need video tools as well.
Thanks,
Erik

Is there a way to turn the wireless capabilities off on an AirPort Express? I have an AirPort Extreme as my main router and use the express to just extend it. I only really want to you use the express for hard ethernet connections

Is there a way to turn the wireless capabilities off on an AirPort Express? I have an AirPort Extreme as my main router and use the express to just extend it. I only really want to you use the express for hard ethernet connections. For whatever reason when I have my express extend my wifi at home the download speed from just the express is absolutely terrible, drops to about 1.5 mb compared to when it's on the extremes part of the network the speed goes up to 50-75mb. These terrible download speed really only affects the iPhones as my MacBook Pro usually gets the good speed no matter where it is. I don't believe there is anything wrong with my phone because if I am in the part of the house that uses just the extreme the download speeds on the iphone goes up to 50-75mb. As a note I have an AirPort Extreme on the top floor of my house (second floor) that's where my modem is located. On the first floor that's where one airport express is located. I also have another airport express in the basement that is accessed by my landlord. Any thoughts on how to fix this would be helpful.

It appears that your networking goals with the AirPort Express is to use it as a wireless Ethernet bridge instead of using it to extend the wireless range of your AirPort Extreme. The latter requires that the Express Wi-Fi radios be enabled.
If you intended to use the Express as a wireless bridge, you just need to reconfigure it to "Join a wireless" network instead of "Extend a wireless network."
For whatever reason when I have my express extend my wifi at home the download speed from just the express is absolutely terrible, drops to about 1.5 mb compared to when it's on the extremes part of the network the speed goes up to 50-75mb.
In an extended network, the placement of the extending base station is critical as it can only extend the wireless network at the bandwidth at which it receives it.
Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details on optimal base station placement.

Can I use logic express with my Macbook

I just got a macbook and i was wondering if I can use Logic express or pro on it??

yes!
it of coourse depends what you want to do with it - but yes!
by all acounts logic express and pro will run very well on the new macbooks.
I'm using pro on my old powerbook - just about manage to use it live and it's slow but useable to get ideas down onto and am using an intel imac as my main studio computer with logic pro 7.2.3 - it's essentially the same as a macbook except it doesn't have integrated graphics and it has a faster hard disk which does make a difference. Apart from that i'm sure your new macbook would toast my powerbook in terms of performance.
Be sure to get the intel version of logic (7.2 and above) as an older "ppc" version may run but is not supported and would probably run very slowly.
Enjoy!

How to use Airport Express as a sound output device

Guys,
Is there a way that I can use Airport Express as a sound output device? So, I can play all the sound on my HIFI.

In order to listen to the non-iTunes audio streams through your Airport Express you will need to use the third party software Airfoil.

Not directly; OE is not supported by iTunes. You need full Outlook. Address Book in later versions of Windows is supported.

Using regular expressions for validation in i18n

Can we use regular expressions for validation of inputs in a java application taking care of i18N aspects too. Zip code for different locales are different. Can we use regular expressions to validate zipcode inputs from different locales

hi,
For that shall i have to create individual patterns for matching the inputs from different locales or a single pattern will do in the case of validating phone nos. around the world, zip codes etc. In case different patterns are required, programmer should have a konwledge of difference in patters for different locales.

Request some help, over procedure's performance uses regular expressions for its functinality

Hi All,
        Below is the procedure, having functionalities of populating two tables. For first table, its a simple insertion process but for second table, we need to break the soruce record as per business requirement and then insert into the table. [Have used regular expressions for that]
        Procedure works fine but it takes around 23 mins for processing 1mm of rows.
        Since this procedure would be used, parallely by different ETL processes, so append hint is not recommended.
        Is there any ways to improve its performance, or any suggestion if my approach is not optimized? Thanks for all help in advance.

Regex's are known to be CPU intensive specially when dealing with large number of rows.
If you have to reduce the processing time, you need to tune the Select statements.
One suggested change could be to change the following query
SELECT
             REGEXP_SUBSTR(P_EXCEPTION_RECORD, '([^^])+', 1,t2.COLUMN_VALUE) str
        FROM
            DUAL t1 CROSS JOIN
                    TABLE
                        CAST
                            MULTISET
                                SELECT LEVEL
                                FROM DUAL
                                CONNECT BY LEVEL <= REGEXP_COUNT(P_EXCEPTION_RECORD, '([^^])+')
                            AS SYS.odciNumberList
                    ) t2
to
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR(P_EXCEPTION_RECORD, '([^^])+', 1,level) str
FROM DUAL
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= REGEXP_COUNT(P_EXCEPTION_RECORD, '([^^])+')
Before looking for any performance benefit, you need to ensure that this does not change your output.
How many substrings are you expecting in the P_EXCEPTION_RECORD? If less than 5, it will be better to opt for SUBSTR and INSTR combination as it might work well with the number of records you are working with. Only trouble is, you will have to write different SUBSTR and INSTR statements for each column to be fetched.
How are you calling this procedure? Is it not possible to work with Collections? Delimited strings are not a very good option as it requires splitting of the data every time you need to refer to.

Does Logic Express 9 make Garageband obsolete? Is there anything you can do in Garageband that you can't do or wouldn't want to do in Logic Express 9?

Does Logic Express 9 make Garageband obsolete?
Depends on what you want to do. If you are new to DAWs and just want to make simple songs without having to learn about the finer points of tracking & mixing, then Garageband is perfect. If you want to get serious about recording, engineering & mixing, then Logic Express & ultimately Logic Studio will be far more useful.
Is there anything you can do in Garageband that you can't do or wouldn't want to do in Logic Express 9?
Yes: create your first song without getting so frustrated you feel like murdering someone.
