Using the FCB1010 direct, or through an Interface

Hi,
I am wish to use my Mac to create the effects I wish to use for my playing (guitar) with Logic and Mainstage. I will need a foot controller, so I am considering the FCB 1010 (as many have). I will also be purchasing an interface which will allow me to record, and sing.  I have a couple of questions:
1 - is it better to plug the FCB1010 directly into the computer when using it with mainstage, or can I use the MIDI IN/OUTs on the interface?
2 - would I be better of sending the output of the interface to my aplifiers, or powered monitors?
3 - if I had a mc + the pedal baord plugged into the interface (assume the answer to 1 allows me to do this), will the output of both go to the lineouts of my interface (say a presonus for example...)
4 - if the answer to 3 is yes: would I be better with a Firewire or would a USB interface be ok (I understand that firewire is always better for latency, but if I could use a USB with satisfactory results... that may be ok)

Hi RLRL,
1 - you can only connect FCB1010 by MIDI IN/OU not USB (directly). But it´s very easy. Any hardware with MIDI IN/OUT can be connected to the FCB1010.
2- Depending on what you want to do. Please be more specific (use a guitar amp, use monitors in studio)
3 - In Mainstage/Logic you can configure and route any input to any output of your audio interface. So yes
4 - The answer is: firewire BUT there´s no diference if you just use a few tracks in/out USB is most capable, but use firewire, and if you do that you can still leave a free USB slot for others things
Hope i´ve helped you.

  • I recently converted from my Blackberry Torch to the Z10.  I travel a lot and use the VZ Access manager through my Torch.  Can I do the same thing through my new Z10?  I don't see that as an option on the software sight.

        Hi Atepastt,
    Congrats on your new Z10! I know having the right features is important. The Z10 uses Blackberry link software. The device uses the mobile hotspot feature to non-cord tether the device. The mobile hotspot feature is an additional cost. You can add this feature online http://vz.to/1di2TlT .

  • Has anyone used the QuickUSB module (Bitswise Systems) to interface to a USB Camera via IMAQ for USB?

    Has anyone used the QuickUSB module made by Bitwise Systems with LabVIEW for image acquisition.   I have a USB camera and I'm trying to use the IMAQ for USB controls to no avail.   Any input is appreciated. 

    Are you using the NI-IMAQ for USB functions or are you calling the QuickUSB libraries from LabVIEW?  Unless the USB camera is DirectShow compliant, then it will not work with the NI-IMAQ for USB driver.  You can use the Code Interface Node in LabVIEW to call external dll's, and it looks like from QuickUSB's website that is the best way to go.  Hope this helps.

  • Using the "Include" directive

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to specify the location from where one
    action script or mxml file can include an other actionscript code?
    For example, I have a file mypanel.mxml that is in project1 and
    myshared.as in project2. I need to "include" myshared.as in
    mypanel.mxml without specifying the physical location of
    myshared.as in the filesystem, to the include directive.
    Please help in this regard.
    Thanks.

    I think you go to your project properties Flex Build Path
    area and add a path to the "Source path" tab.

  • Is there a way to use the onboard mic and an audio interface simultaneously with the iPad?

    I teach bass lessons with skype and was wondering if theres a way to do this with an ipad
    Can the ipad pic up my voice(through internal mic) and bass(throgh audio interface) simultaniusly and then use both of those signals with skype?
    Any ideas on how I might teach skype lessons with an ipad? Thanks http:/http://basslessonsunlimited.com

    Yes.
    1) Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <--> ports on your existing wireless router to the WAN "O" port on the Time Capsule
    2) Go through the standard configuration suggested by the setup "wizard"
    3) Then manually turn off the wireless function using AirPort Utility

  • Do I need basic cable to use the MLB package purchased through itunes to use on my Apple TV?

    I would like to purchase the MLB package through itunes to use on my Apple TV. Do I need to have basic cable in order to watch it on the tv like some of the other apps require?

    Yes sorry, I can see that from your question title.  Are you in the US? Ifv so movie redownloads should be available, but I believev some studios aren't onboard.
    In iTunes, go to the Store home page - on the right in Quick Links is there a Purchased/Purchases section? If so check if you can download the movies from there.
    If you can't see them go to expresslane.apple.com and raise a support ticket for iTunes store, asking them to enable download via iTunes.

  • HT4437 I have a Macbook Air, an iPad3, and Apple TV.  I want to be able to use the iPad3 for training through the Macbook Air which is connected to a projector.  Any ideas?

    I would like to be able to show my iPad3 screen through the Macbook Air that is connected to a projector.  I attended an Apple Training presentation and the presenter was using this set up-how do I get it set up correctly?  I also recently purchase Apple TV because the presenter said that she was using this device with the Air and the iPad.

    If you are trying to connect the iPad to the Macbook, then try this app: http://www.reflectionapp.com/ The iPad also supports connecting straight to the Apple TV, so you could try it that way too.
          Hope this helps!

    Thanks.

    Hi Kasturi,
    > not accepting the points
    It worked on this and on one other thread, but this is still open: How to upload the image
    > want upload the images from the client side machine
    > to KM
    In the thread I just referred to, I already provided information about the HTMLB upload control. With this at hand, you'll get the file from the client to the server.
    At server side, get an ICollection instance where you want to store the file and create the corresponding resource. See https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/javadocs/nw04/sp12/knowledge management/com/sapportals/wcm/repository/icollection.html#createresource(java.lang.String,%20com.sapportals.wcm.repository.IPropertyMap,%20com.sapportals.wcm.util.content.IContent)

    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

  • I have recently received a project from someone who has already captured the footage, can I use the footage directly from the capture scratch for my new project?

    Will this in any way effect my footage when working/exporting? I will be working off the same hard drive.

    If all the footage played in FC to begin with and all the media is included in the capture scratch folder you should be good to go but I would check a few things.
    Pull the new footage into your project and look under the compressor column. If any files are H264 or MP4 I would recommend converting these to a PR422 or another FC friendly format.  Also confirm any audio only files are aiff/48Khz(not mp3 or 44.1Khz).
    In my experience you can work with H264,MP4, mp3 & 44.1 in FC7 but you are almost guaranteed to have problems later.

  • How to use the direct bytebuffer in JNI? Accessing JDBC from C application.

    I am working on a project to access JDBC Driver within C application. The invocation JNI is used.
    To get better performance, I use the preparedStatement for dynamic sql. This need to transfer much parameter data from C to JDBC for PreparedStatement object in JVM. I think this maybe get improvements by using the new direct bytebuffer function from JDK1.4. However I cannot find an example code to get start. Could someone provide some ideas for this?
    Currently, I directly call JDBC API in C application through JNI, so there is no java codes. Only c file using JNI call.
    My understanding is to use the direct bytebuffer feature, I also need to have java codes to process the JDBC API call and then can share the same memory between Java and C. Please correct me if wrong.
    Any input is appreciated.

    I am trying to get the best performance for the solution, using JDBC libs in a C application. So I am considering to use the direct bytebuffer in the solution to pass parameters to JDBC and get result sets from JDBC side.
    For your questions,
    1. Why don't you just write the database access in C?
    You mean to directly call JDBC API in C through JNI, right? My plan is to wrap the JDBC API by java and expose seldom interface to C native code, so reduce the JNI call between C and JAVA. If directly call the JDBC API call from C, the number of JNI call maybe more.
    No I mean what I said. In C, no java at all, why don't you write code to access the database?
    2. The database access itself is going to be slower than anything that you do in C or java.
    Exactly. I just want to find each potential points to get performance improvements for the whole solution. I also did some optimization work for the database call. The goal is to get the best performance from C application to database through JDBC libs.
    Then I suggest you profile it.
    3. Why don't you use import/export files and the database tools? This is often significantly faster with volume processing.
    Sorry, I am not very familar with some functions of JNI. Could you explain, " +Why don't you use import/export files and the database tools+"?
    Nothing to do with java, jni nor C.
    Major (or perhaps everything that is a real 'database') comes with additional tools. Amounst those tools will be command line tools capable of importing and exporting data from the database. In processing bulk data they will always be faster than anything you can do in JDBC.
