Using a 50inch plasma for mixing/dubbing

Hello,
putting together an equipment list for a mixing/dubbing studio. I want my G5 Quad to run two 23" cinema displays for Logic Pro windows, and then have a 50" Samsung plasma monitor for the video- what additional card and cables do I need for this?
Thanks for any help,
Nick

You can add an additional Nvidia 6600 graphics card (available at the Apple Store) to the 8x PCI-E slot in the quad. If the TV has an HDMI input, then get a DVI-HDMI cable. If not, the 6600 should come with an adapter for dvi to s-video or component. You can use that to connect to the tv as well (at a little lower quality).

Use hyperdraw vs. automation for mixing?

hi,
have been working on a little 15 min. film score - my first one... all MIDI regions - used ESX24 on everything.
I have strings, and organ - and want those instruments to 'build' (crescendo) in parts...
do I use hyperdraw or automation for volume swells, etc?
I've never mixed before - this is what I'm doing - MIXING.
thanks...

First of all, congratulations on your first score!
I'd highly suggest using automation instead of hyperdraw.
You have a few options here too: you can not only automate individual tracks, but output objects (for, say, grouping all of your strings, guitars, whatever) and you can also automate the master output to do global fade-ins/fade-outs.
The great thing about automation is the ability to overwrite on-the-fly. It's easy to get used to and has the same editing capabilities as hyperdraw (nodes, lines, etc.).
That's my recommendation. Best of luck!

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.

Auto calculation row, work around for mixed calc methods?

I have a problem with an auto calculation row. One of the columns in the report is a percentage so I want the total row to calculate using a column formula, instead of the Auto Calculation Row calculation method setting.
We're using the auto calculation row as a way to churn through many Entity members, displaying financial totals for 4 Account category groupings for each Entity member.
For each Entity, those 4 rows display the data they're supposed to, and the auto calc row generates the 'Total', which is the calculation method it is set to do. With 2 columns in play, it works like this:
A1 through A4 display data, and are summarised in [A][Total Row]
B1 through B4 display data, and are summarized in [B][Total Row]
An updated requirement for a % column came up, and now we're trying to get that to display properly in column [C].
[C] is created as a formula column
The formula is set to [B]/[A], and formatted to display 0.01 precision
We expect each row to use this formula, and for rows 1 through 4 it does.
However, for [Total Row], it does not calculate [B]/[A]... instead it calculates [C][1]+[C][2]+[C][3]+[C][4]
This makes sense in terms of what the 'auto calculation row' is designed to do, or as to how it is explained in FR documentation.
The calculation method is set to 'Total', so it just adds up all of the data.
But we're looking for a combination of settings or a work-around that permits the Auto Calculation row feature to be used with mixed calculations as I've described.
We're on FR 11.1.2.362
Thanks

Hi osgood, thanks for getting back, thanks for that suggestion, I think that's a nice way of going about it. The form is working great with the calculation but I still can't get it to work on the reply email back to the site.
This is what I've used in the PHP form;
$freight = $_POST['PROD_freight_1'];
$totalcost = ($chardonnay_2011_bottles * 20 + $chardonnay_2011_cases * 204) + ($pino_gris_2011_bottles * 21 + $pino_gris_2011_cases * 228) + ($sauvigon_blanc_2011_bottles * 20 + $sauvigon_blanc_2011_cases * 204) + ($riesling_2012_bottles * 20 + $riesling_2012_cases * 204) + ($pinot_noir_2009_bottles * 25 + $pinot_noir_2009_cases * 250) + ($PROD_freight_1);
This the code for the reply back to the site;
\n selection \n $PROD_freight_1
Cheers
The variable should be:
+ ($freight);
and
\n selection \n $freight
Does that work?

Using 720p 50fps video for Slow Motion

Hi there,
I've recently started using Photoshop Elements 9 for editing my action sports footage, and its a big improvement over free to use programs that I used before.
The thing that I have run into, and that I can't seem to solve, is making footage slow down.
I'm using both a GoPro camera (HD and HD2) and a Canon EOS 550D to shoot my video. Everything is shot at 720p @ 50fps so that I can use the footage slowed down when I want to use it that way without making it choppy (in normal 25fps export video (can be 720p, but I might use 1080p as well))
I've set up a project in PE9 using the preset for PAL-DSLR-720-50fps so that (me thinking) I can import 50fps footage without losing frames for importing. However, when I use the time timestretch function (through right click menu) and set the strech to 50% (so effectively 25fps) the video doesn't appear to have the extra frames. Even after rendering, if I foreward 1 frame at the time, every second frame is simply just a copy of the previous one. I've checked the file properties through PE9 and it says that the file is 50.000fps, so there should be 50fps available to build the footage from (yet only showing 25fps in frame by frame mode).
In searching the forum I've found some other suggestions to solve this, including the 'Interpret Footage' function. I've tried setting it to 'Interpret as 25fps' to see if this changed anything (as to smear out all available 50 frames over a 25fps clip, doubling its length), but that also retured with a copied frame every second frame.
I've also tried setting the project preset to DSLR-1080p @ 25fps to see if that might have an effect, but as soon as I import my 720p video it changes the project preset to AVCHD-LITE-720p50. Using that returns the same issue (btw, what is the difference between DSLR setting and AVCHD?). Using the AVCHD-720p @ 25pfs together with 'interpret footage at 25fps' also reverted to 50fps as soon as I imported the video file.
Frame blending isn't an option as it doesn't actually blend them. It just overlays the two frames and changes the opacity of the upper one (or so it seems), creating this weird blurry overlay effect, instead of interpolating the objects between the two frames (but maybe I'm asking for too much on this function).
Can someone please help me solve this slo-motion effect issue? I really want to use the full available 50fps footage I have shot to create smooth slow-motion in a 25fps export video (i'm not looking at reducing it much more than that). It seems that half the frames are dropped out as soon as I import into PE9.
Thanks,

As we've often discussed on this forum, Go-Pro footage rarely behaves in this program as source footage. The best solution we've found is a conversion to an editable format.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/668369?tstart=0
In fact, mixing video footage of any types is usually not a good idea. Especially when your project settings may not fully match either.
Try using just the footage from your Canon. When you add it to your timeline, do you see red lines above the clips? If so, you are not using the correct project settings for your footage.

To use servlet as src for an image in html

Hi,
I want to generate 2 chart images. I do not want to store them. So I am using
<img src="../servlet/xyz">
<img src="../servlet/xyz">
This is a same servlet & depending upon parameters it takes different action. It writes generated charts in response.Sometimes it shows proper images & sometimes both images are same.
If I store these images , they are coming properly.
hat can be the reason for mixing of this respone?
Can somebody pls explain me?
Regards,

hi there
use the "Open VI reference" function and don't connect the "type specifier vi refnum".
to set control values : use the "Set Control Value" method
to run the VI : use the "Run VI" method
to get control values : use the "Get Control Value" method
then you don't need knwoledge of the connector pane.
Best regards

Listen in mono for mixing

I can't listen in mono for mixing purposes. I don't want to loose the stereo, I just want to listen in mono while mixing, then switch back to stereo.

You can insert the Gain plugin (Utilities subfolder) on your Stereo Out
and use its' mono/stereo switch.

Suggestions for mixing?

I just recorded music project on Logic but I'm having a difficult time Mixing it all together. I know that mixing in itself is an art, so does anyone know if it's possible to transfer these tracks to a studio that is better equipped for mixing? Or should I just undertake it myself?
suggestion?

I also found "Guerrilla Home Recording" by Karl Coryat gave me useful advice when I was beginning my experiments with mixing.
Those two books, for me, had hundreds of times more practical value than some of the goof-ball audio plug-ins, applications, and hardware I've bought over the years.

HT204380 I need to track a thief, he has my daughters iPod touch, and is using my email account for FaceTime

How can I track this guy! He has my daughters iPod touch, and now using my email address for face time. The iPod was lost in Dubai last month.

The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, all a thief or whoever finds it has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.

HT204053 The entire family has used one itunes account for years. How do we all set up separate iCloud accounts now?

The entire family has used one itunes account for years. How do we all set up separate iCloud accounts now? Or should we? 5 macbooks, 2 ipads, 4 iphones, 2 itouch, 2 imacs. How does one decide what to sync, share and what not to? Green Jeans.

You need to start by understanding the distinction between iTunes and iCloud - Apple confuse the issue by referring to 'iTunes Match' as part of iCloud. It isn't.
You don't have to have the same login (Apple ID) for iTunes and iCloud; many people don't and there's no problem about it.
Your iCloud ID gets you email, calendars, contacts, iWork documents and PhotoStream syncing between devices.
Your iTunes ID gets you the iTunes Store, the App Store for iOS, the Mac App Store for OSX,, 'iTunes in the Cloud' (downloading of purchased items to any logged-in device) and 'iTunes Match' (uploading of songs not purchased in the iTunes Store).
Your family members can easily each get their own iCloud account to keep email etc. separate - in each case they will need a different non-Apple email address (a free one from Yahoo etc. would do) to set up the ID. If they are sharing a Mac they need to be using a separate user account.
They can have their own iCloud accounts and still all sign into the same iTunes account: or they can open their own iTunes accounts using their new iCloud Apple IDs.
BUT they cannot transfer items purchased under the present iTunes ID to different iTunes IDs.

If we have 3 iPhones, and use the same iTunes for all content, should we use 3 Apple IDs and authorize for all 3 or just use 1 ID?

I want to enable us to share all apps, music, videos and photos, but enable each phone to keep its contacts and history separate. If I use 1 ID, all new purchases will go on the same credit card, which I'm not sure is ideal, but not horrible. Since we use the same computer and iTunes using only 1 appleID, and the phones are new to the equation since it was only iPods before, what is the best way to handle a family with 3 phones that can share all entertainment content, but not all phone-related stuff? I saw that you can use one AppleID for purchases, but another for iCloud. That may be the best solution, but I don't know enough about this yet to move forward yet- migrating from Android...
Appreciate the help.

Thanks for the help, but a follow up question now.
My iPhone won't arrive for a little while, but my wife already got hers and she wants to set it up now. Using my Apple ID for the purchases, if she starts setting hers up, can she change her iCloud ID to something else quickly? It keeps telling us that we have to sign in with the AppleID first.
Should we just set up an iCloud account via normal internet before trying all this via iPhone?

(You establish PPPoE sessions over the local network to the Arch machine? Which then routes the traffic?)
first question ,yes that is exactly what i am done. second question i also have a small scripts on windows pc to solve routes traffic problem
route -p delete 0.0.0.0
route -p add 192.168.9.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.9.1
route -p add 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 192.168.22.0
but after a while i found scripts is not necessary because windows always attempt to use PPPoE sessions as default internet connection local connection is also ok
and use -i pppX in my iptables rules dose not solve my problem , because same account start PPPoE session could be marked as ppp0 or ppp1. it is hard to identified which account start session.

Help!

Deleting an iCloud account only deletes it from the Device, not from iCloud. In iOS 8, the name of this setting changed to "Sign Out" as that is a better reflection of what actually happens. Your iCloud data remains on the server, available to devices still signed into the account, but the device you sign out of the account on is disconnected from the account, and as a result, the iCloud data from that account is removed from the device. It will redownload to the device should you sign back into the account.
The only issue you'll run into when you switch between accounts is with my photo stream photos older than 30 days. When you delete (or sign out of) and account, your photo stream photos are deleted along with the other data from the account in question. However, unlike other data which remains on the server and can redownload to your device when you sign back in, my photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days. When you sign back in, you will only get back my photo stream photos added in the last 30 days (as older photos are no longer in iCloud to redownload). Like other account data, any my photo stream photos on your other devices signed into the account are unaffected by this. If you want to keep older my photo stream photos on your device as you change iCloud accounts, save them to your camera roll before deleting (signing out of) the account.
