Vinyl Scratching Loops

Not a lot of them in LE8 and was wondering if anyone could recommend some downloads or software that has a good mix of scratching samples.
Also, are there more of them in Logic Pro 8? Might be better just to upgrade if that is the case.
Working on a Kid Rock inspired song and need to have scratching for the break.
Thanks
RH

I can only tell you that these loops are neither from an earlier GB version, nor do they seem to be contained in any of the Jam Packs.

  • One music library, 1 G4 Powerbook, 1 MacbookPro

    Hi there,
    I use my MacbookPro on my office desk that I download music, rate and put into specific playlists as I need it to Dj. I have one external hard disk that has all my music.
    I want to use my old powerbook G4 that is plugged into my Vinyl Scratch, mixer and turntables but the computer is on another table but is also plugged into the same external drive.
    I want to sync all my playlist and ratings from my MacbookPro.
    How do I do this so that everytime I download music from my MacbookPro that goes into the same external hard drive gets synced on my iTunes on my G4 Powerbook?
    I tried exporting the XML library from my MacbookPro to my G4 but the playlists are not synced...
    Are there any other solutions? The new music that comes in will be on my MacbookPro so that is where the source is coming from daily.
    Thanks for your help!

    There are a few utilities that can help you sync iTunes across different computers. You could begin your research by having a look at these two for instance:

  • Case, cover, or bare- which way for the iPad Air?

    Love the iPad Air-- light, fast, elegant, and fun!
    Like the look of it, though I am concerned about the smooth back and the possibility of a drop; and the exposed front and back potentially leading to scratches by setting it down!
    So, tried a wonderful, light, inexpensive, well constructed case by Fintie (have one on my iPad Mini and it works great!).  The iPad Air version is only slightly over 7 ounces, but with the Air in it, the Air no longer seems so light, airy, and appealing!
    I'm thinking that I need a combination of a light "smart cover" with a thin clear, see-through vinyl, scratch-protecting sheet for the back.  That way, the Air'll have some protection from scratches and screen damage, but it could also leave its "docking" station (i.e., take off the cover).
    Any recommendations for such combos?  Do they even exist?

    Well, I may have found one... there was a sizing problem, but it seems they've fixed that.  Anyone here tried it?

    Hi,
    "There is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete. Restart Windows and run sfc again"
    I've got the error (80071A91) that others have experiences while trying windows update and for the life of me I cannot get the updates to install.
    Looking for the past 4 hours via Google, trying different recommended things and still no luck
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-windows_update/unable-to-install-updates-getting-error-code/27a21977-f964-4376-bfab-2f29ea127c6a
    # SFC /scannow causes the "repair status message" and asks for reboot.
    I've downloaded fix-it, tried booting into a system repair/restore disk using command line to run
    #sfc /scannow /offline....
    using the dispart to LIST VOLUMES  (based on this http://mikemstech.blogspot.com.au/2011/12/how-to-perform-offline-system-integrity.html )
    I've tried #fsutils resourse set autorevert=true (or something, can't find the exact post as I've rebooted so many times)
    I've tried dismc.exe (or similar without success)
    Basically I'm stuck with these updates (~10 of them) always sitting there downloading, installing every time I shut down the PC.
    Running a system repair disk created in windows still does not allow #sfc /scannow....
    My Last system restore was 04/08/14 and I cannot even restore the system to this point as the restore fails and asks to remove itself once I restart the system.
    Details:
    OEM version of windows purchased legally and genuine microsoft logo in system dashboard.

    Secondary storage disk a D:
    Been working and updating fine for the past 5-6 months.
    I have the Optical drive setup as O: and a Daemon tools virtual drive as drive E:
    While running DISKPART and using LIST VOLUME I see this:
    currently the system seems to have lost all update history
    Any information or help on this is appreciated. I don't want to reformat and reinstall, I don't really want to 'repair' and wipe my current software installation so I'm hoping there is a way.
    Anyway I can get the 'pending state' removed.?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi, I've rebooted into Repair mode (Console), (because repair said windows is installed on E:) run dism.exe /image:E:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions
    This gave a message about small scratch space but did say something out a fix. Upon reboot into safemode with console I received the same message 
    "C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow
    Beginning system scan.  This process will take some time.
    There is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete.  Restart Windows and run sfc again."
    I then rebooted and tried SCF again, no luck... Same message, same updates still sitting there.

  • I have some loops from acid 5 which I have dragged in a folder to the loop browser.  Some of them retain the folder name in the View: and some don't.  I have had some that seem to go in but I can't find them.  Where should I look?

    It may be best to recreate the folder and the smart playlists from scratch.

  • New effects problem on library loops

    My Logic has been performing close to flawless since I've had it. An update installed today and a new problem has arisen that I can not find a way to fix. Whenever the project tempo is different than the loop tempo, for example, when a drum loop in the library reads 120 and I change the project tempo is 85, the loop preview plays at the correct tempo but has reverb and delay all over it which sounds awful. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    That is exactly the same problem I've been having on my iPod 20G.
    1. I've just upgraded my PC with XP, including Service Packs and updates.
    2. Installed the newest iTunes
    3. Imported all music files over from scratch, (did not import old iTunes library).
    4. Installed iPod Updater 2006-01-10 for my version of the iPod.
    5. Installed the new version for the iPod.
    6. Then used the restore feature to wipe the iPod clean and then plugged it into the power supply like instructed by the Updater.
    7. Launched iTunes with the iPod not connected.
    8. Then connected the iPod and created a name for the iPod.
    The problem occurs when the draging created Playlists to the iPod. It starts transferring files and then stops anywhere from 50 to 70 songs into the process. When it freezes, the iPod's "Do Not Disconnect" icon stops flashing and I can hear the harddrive inside the iPod still spinning. If you press the reset combination on the iPod at just the right time, it will reset. From that point I have formatted the iPod and started from sratch three times but it keep freeze around the same number of files. Still happens with different playlists.
    Any suggestions?

  • Loops won't install on new MacBook-corrupts system

    Howdy.
    I have a brand new 2.2 MacBook, and I'm already very familiar with GarageBand from having used it on my iMac G5 for many years.
    I'm having difficulty installing the loops.
    Of course, when I click on one of the loops, it tells me I have to install them and gives me the choice of the disc or the download.
    I tried the download first. Software Update ran and told me that there were no updates to install.
    Next I tried installing them from the system disc (disc 2).
    I went through the installation progress. After it finished, my system was completely screwed up.
    Any time I tried to run a program like Mail, iTunes, System Preferences or Front Row, they all crashed with the message "an unexpected error occurred". The message would not go away, even when accepting, reporting or closing the error message.
    I got on the phone with AppleCare and they had me reinstall the entire operating system from scratch, including the optional installs on the second disc.
    So I've done that, but still no loops.
    I click on the grey-shaded loops again and I still get the "need to install" dialog, but I'm hesitant because I don't want to have to reinstall Leopard all over again.
    I'd appreciate some advice from anybody who can help me solve this problem.
    Thanks,
    ==>Pete

    You'll have to install them from disk, there's no other way.

  • My loop browser is playing loops that arent on the Hard drive!??!???!

    I have 60's shuffle drummer 01 02 03 etc that i threw out a long time ago. I just repaired perms, repaired disk. Now
    i have these loops in the browser and they play
    but i do not ( ive looked everywhere ) have them on my computer's HD. Isnt it absolute that what is played in the browser must be on the HD somewhere?
    This is the strangest thing that has happened?
    any clues?
    any???

    thanks so much... for your time and expertise.
    1-I want to organize the loop browser so that if i want lets say only electric guitar solo loops or just drum fill loops I could bring all those up in the browser where it says show all ( in the very left column) and they would appear in the same amount ( minus those in 3/4 or 6/8) as they are in the subfolder in the Apple loops HD folder. Thats the first concern i have.
    2-i am not really really sure that every loop i have in my HD (lib>audio>apple loops folder is actually listed in the loop browser. I bought several different third party loops and some have odd names and so forth all in all i must have 6 thousand loops or more...Id like to make sure that they are all indexed properly. Id like to start from scratch. So as not to get duplicate problems etc etc. I would feed the route Hard drive initially free of any loops from an external HD with the loops and re drag the loops in their respective folders onto the HD and then the browser and reindex them so that im sure im doing it right.
    thats the goal. I would ofcourse trash the index document before i do this.
    I understand with prefs unchecked (no filter) the only loops that wont be showing will be those with different time signatures.
    Now, in my newly made HD loop folder ill have subfolders with loops for electric guitars, acoustic guitars, drum kits, drum fills, etc. etc
    What im asking therefore is if i have subfolders with more specific loops in them is it just a matter of dragging each sub folder over the browser and when i go to the browser to search them, I would simply have to click on the very left column where it gives you the options show all etc..
    and i should see the loops in each of these subfolders (minus the different time signature loops) as they are on the Hard Drive?
    i found that Jam Pack 4 orchestral is only loadable if you do it in small amounts. It will not take the whole folder and index. ( thats my experience ).
    So are these feats possible and can i do them the way ive stated it so far?
    now the catch and the problem im having here is that the loops have been assigned different instruments genres that conflict with what i would like. I am not going to go in and change all of them to suit me in APPLE SOUND UTILITY.
    i just want to know they are all indexed and that i can grab them with the above method. do let me know
    i thank you so much.

  • Missing / No "Apple Loops Index" Folder of TXT Files

    I've been having a weird issue for a while now, even after doing a clean install of Yosemite again. It seems I've never had an Apple Loops Index folder in my Macbook's Library, and even when I make one from scratch in the proper location and run a loops re-index from both LPX and GarageBand, no .txt index files are made. I've never seen the folder or files before. The reason why I'm asking about this is because I've had some issues with missing Apple Loops folders that I definitely have in my HD library, but they won't show up. Many support forums advised trashing the Apple Loops Index text files and re-indexing, but I have no way of finding this folder. Has anyone experienced this or read any similar issue reports?
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    Loops reside in a few files.
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops
    ~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops (if you installed any thiord party guys)
    The index files are here:
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops Index
    ~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops Index
    To move the loops to an external drive:
    1. Move all of the loops from the Apple Loops folders above and move them to the external drive.
    2. Delete all of the Index files.
    3. Use the Loop Browser to reindex the loops from the new drive.
    Be sure to drag the loops as individual folders (in other words if you store them in a folder called loops and then have groups of loops under that) if you don't, you will have one large group instead of several smaller ones. It makes it easier to find what you want.

  • Change Loops Index location

    At home, I keep a lot of loops on an external HD (connected to a serving computer). Now I'm traveling and don't have that volume available. I wanted to add some loops, dragged them into the Loop Browser. GB said "indexing …", and my computer tried to connect to that remote volume. So I take it that my Loops Index is on that remote volume (which is probably a bad idea).
    I had to force quit GB, and when I re-opened it, it said it had no loops at all (before it had the local GB loops). Fine, I thought, so I can index from scratch, and dragged all my loops into GB, but it still tried to find that volume. Force quit again and trashed the prefs files, but no change.
    My local Loops Index folder is empty, in the user directory as well as in the main Library. So - how can I tell GB just to create a local Loops Index??

    Okay, somehow it worked at the second try - maybe I was impatient before and shouldn't have force quit the app. Trashed all the index files it had created in the last half hour and started again. And there it was, funnily enough with all the loops already installed!

    So I created a button on my home page, and it is linked to this XML file. Everything works great except it only shows the item that I coded in...I want it to show ALL items.
    Can I do this without having to input each item individually?
    Is this how I should do it anyways with a button linking to this xml file?
    I really want to have like 3-5 of the posts to auto update on my home page but I dont know how to embed the RSS into my HTML home page file.
    Also, the way I have it coded, will it automatically update the new posts?
    or do I have to wait for the new post and input the item into the xml file?
    I am very new to the RSS feed so please help.
    Thanks,

    HI,
    I have created a small animation for a web banner and I have selected it to only play once, but the export plays continuously. IS there another way of making sure it only plays once? I have got it ticked in the 'Save for Web' dialog box to only play once as well.
    Thanks! Jen

    I had this same problem. I was exporting around 10 gif banners for a campaign, but the glitch only affected a few.
    I wish I had a more airtight solution, but I eventually fixed the problem for each of the effected banners by "jiggling the keys" a bit- that is to say restarting Ps, deleting the animation and starting again, and even deleting the entire PSD and starting from scratch. Was a real nuisance and set me back a good couple hours, but still got those gifs to stop looping.

  • How to stop my animated Gif from looping?

    So I'm making my Gif in flash. When I export my video as a Gif I select the option to only repeat once but the Gif just keeps looping. I also have transparent selected and dithering unselected, but neither seem to be working.

  • Blackberry World thinks I need to update Apps that are already up-to-date. (Infinite Update Loop)

    Hello,
     I have been having trouble with Blackberry World.  It states that I have apps that need updating, but I already have the most recent update of these apps.  In addition, BBW states that I need updates for apps that I no longer have installed on my phone. (and I cant seem to uninstall these apps via BBW)
    I have tried installing the update (even if its not needed), and uninstalling/re-installing the apps, and nothing eliminates this problem.  "Refresh BlackBerry World" does not help either.
    for an example: I have 9 apps that BBW thinks I need to update.  One of which is Blackberry Blend. When I click on Blend, It states that the Update is available to Version 1.1.0.67, but directly underneath, it states that I have Installed Version 1.1.0.67 !!!  If I choose to perform the update, the notice for updating Blend shows back up in BBW immediatley.   The same issue is occuring with a number of apps, including: Google Talk, Skype, etc..
    Any suggestions on how to stop this BBW App Update Infinite Loop?

    Hi,  I've tried clearing the cache multiple times.  With or without reboot, it doesn't seem to fix the problem.
    I should probably mention that this is on a Z10 STL100-3  OS release 10.3.1.1865 OS version 10.3.1.2708.  This problem was occuring with only Skype before the upgrade from 10.2, but since the update its with 9 other Apps as well.  I even completely wiped my phone, and only selectively restored a handful of apps to prevent the issue, but thats when BBW now displays required updates for Apps I no longer have installed on the phones since starting from scratch.
    any other suggestions?

  • How can I get my (vinyl) record music into iTunes Match?

    I have a rather large collection of music on CDs, Tapes, and records.
    Now that iTunes Match exists I would like to include all of my music into my iTunes library.
    There is no easy way (that I know of) to load anything except CDs into iTunes. So for the rest of the library one must either buy all the music again or buy equipment to play the music one time and convert it to a newer format.
    My CD collection is mostly loaded and since 99.999% (virtually all) of that music is already in iTunes Match it is not uploaded to iTunes again, but it quickly becomes available to play on all my iTunes Authorized Devices.
    With the exception of that 1 in ten thousand songs that I may have that iTunes does not have in the Match library there is no reason to import the music at all - other than to prove I have the actual CD's. (In any case I suppose I could have borrowed them for that anyway.)
    However for CDs at least they can be imported - but for tapes and records I know of no direct way.
    With something state-of-the-art like iTunes Match and my PC(s), iPhone(s) and iPad, why use stone-age-like means to prove ownership of outside-of-iTunes music?
    Why not provide some other information to identify albums owned and have them available in iTunes Match without the 99.999% useless step of loading them?
    In fact for most tape music it is no longer playable (to convert) as the rollers in the tape devices deteriorate and they no longer play.
    Vinyl records play just fine, just not easily into a PC without purchase of expensive equipment that would be used only for the one-time load (which is really just for proof-of-ownership).
    What a ridiculous waste of time, energy and funds for that 1 in 10,000 songs that may not yet exist in the iTunes Match library. Okay, as the music gets older it may even be 2 in 10,000 - but I doubt it.
    I remember that each album (and 45 rpm single) has identifying information scratched into it (around the inside of the innermost track) - can that (or something else) suffice as proof of ownership to get the music into iTunes Match?
    Please respond with ideas to quickly and easily get already-owned vinyl record music into an iTunes Match library.
    I personally do not care if 1 (or 2) out of 10,000 of my songs gets lost because it is not in the iTunes Match library - couldn't be that good in that case anyway.
    Thanks!!

    I too have not figured out how to convert my vinyl collection to iTunes match. Here is what I have tried:
    I record my vinyl records onto CD using a Sony RCD-W500C which makes a very high quality recording. I make sure the song lengths are the same as those from the same album at the iTunes store.
    Then I import the CD into my iTunes music library. I have to enter the names of the tracks manually because Gracenote cannot identify the names of the songs. I do this while the music is in my iTunes music library and the CD has been ejected from my PC.
    Then I try to get the iTunes Match, but it never works. I do, however, get the artwork from iTunes. iTunes then uploads my songs into the iCloud. When I download them back onto my PC and iPhone 4s, I get the identicle recording that I imported onto iTunes. I know this because I can hear the static and crackling of the vinyl. I don't necessarily mind that noise, but I figured if I paid for the iTunes Match I should get the AAC 256 bps music. After all it doesn't cost iTunes anything to give it to me. And there's no way I'm going to purchase all my vinyl records again. I have about 500 albums.
    I do buy all my new music from iTunes because I think it is the best system available. I just think it could be so much better if they would let me download the highest quality recording of the music I own from them.
    I have also tried the Sony Sound Forge Audio Studio which records my vinyl records into a music file on my PC. But that doesn't get the match either.
    THERE HAS TO BE SOMEBODY OUT THERE THAT CAN TELL US WHAT ITUNES MATCH LOOKS AT IN OUR MUSIC UPLOADS THAT DETERMINES WHETHER THEY GIVE US THE MATCH!!!!!!
    When you download a CD, there is some information embedded in the CD that iTunes matches. I don't believe there is any information embeded in the vinyl albums, but when I burn them onto a CD-maybe I could add the info onto the CD before trying to match it if I just knew what they looked for.
    I would appreciate any help anyone can give me on this.
