Volume envelope error

hello,
I am doing the sound for a film and I have a lot of volume envelopes on tracks. all of them are a sort of fade in fade out type but not completely from 0 to -inf. let's say from 0 to -12 dB and then back after a few seconds. they are all smooth slopes.
whenever I save the project, close Logic and then return later to the same project, all my envelopes are straight 90degrees. logic adds a point for each envelope slope and makes it abrupt.
it does not do this on all tracks. only some. I could not identify a pattern of behavior.
please tell me how I can get rid of this. it takes me half an hour every time I open the project to delete these points that Logic adds and then my work is in vain. if I close it and open it again, it looks the same.
thank you for your help.

no big deal really. no virtual instruments, no heavy plug-ins. just a few eq's and compressors from logic and some reverb. 8 tracks in total. but 4 of the are 98 minutes long.

No SOAP Envelope error in SOAP Receiver Adapter

Hello Friends,
Informaiton:-
I have configured one Synchronous scenarion for SAP R/3 to PI 7.1 to Java based web applicaiton.
On the Receiver/Outbound side, i have configured the SOAP Receiver Adapter with the Target URL and SOAP Action.
Outbound and Inbound service interfaces have Request/Response and Fault messages.
Issue:-
While sending the Message, Below error is noticed in ABAP stack SXMB_MONI during the Call Adapter Stage and also in RWB (Channel Monitoring) .
com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: java.io.IOException: No SOAP Envelope but 1 {}RESPONSES; HTTP 200 OK
I also found that Request message is not reaching to the Java Web server.
I am taking the Same message Payload (found at Call Adapter Stage) and ussing it in XML Altova SPY Web client tool. There it is running scuccessfully and getting the Response message.
please suggest.
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
Yesterday i consumed the same WSDL file in Altova XML SPY and there it is working, getting the Response.
Now comparing the SOAP Request message reaching to the Third party Web server (which fall within the same Lane network)
from SAP PI and Altova XML SPY tool. I used TCP Gateway for the below scenarios.
(1)First i sent the SOAP message from PI and observed the RESPONSE message without the SOAP Envelope in TCP Gatway Trace and hence i am getting the No SOAP Envelope Error in PI.
(2)I consumed the same WSDLfile in Altova XML SPY and sent the SOAP message, here i got the Proper SOAP Response message and hence success in this case. (Used the same Data Payload as used in point 1)
(3)Now to identify the issue in the SOAP Request message being sent from PI, i used the same SOAP message sent in step 1 here, that means copy the entire SOAP ENvelope from the TCP gateway Trace and pasted it in Alota Spy and sent, there it is found running (got the response message from Third Party server).
One difference i found in HTTP Protocol statements in SOAP Request message in Point no 1 and Point no 2 above.

Volume structure error -694???

Ran tech tool cd and it could not fix volume structure error and showed error -694. Does anyone know what this means?
Just archived and reinstalled OSX yesterday to fix a boot up problem, which it did. But now after doing the needed updates - whenever I try to type something in firefox a gray screen with the power button logo pops up and says I have to restart - and when I try to open multiple documents into photoshop it won't open them - only individually.
So I figured something must be wrong - and ran the apple hardware test, disk utility and then the tech tool deluxe. Then I got the volume structure error which tech tool could not fix. Could it have something to do with permissions errors? I was trying to fix permissions and everytime I do, I get the same corrections which seems weird. Anyone got any suggestions?
I have an imac G5 with OSX version 10.3.9. 1.8 Ghz with 768MB Memory.

Any help would be great. I can still use my computer - but I want to get this fixed before bigger things happen...

The error -694 message means that one part of your hard disk is listed as being part of two or more files; using the Disk Utility's Repair Disk option may identify these files.
The output of the Repair Permissions command indicates that you're using a version of iTunes which the mechanism can't properly handle, and the others are status messages. You shouldn't be concerned about any of those messages.

Audition CS5.5 - How to go over 100% in Volume Envelope

So I'm trying to do a simple amplify envelope, with smooth louden and quieting, and the only envelope I can find is the Volume Envelope. But when I try using it, the maximum volume is 100% which is the original volume. The only tool I can find to make it actually louder is Amplify, which just makes the whole selection larger in decibels, with no volume curvature. I just want to smoothly lift the volume from 100% to something around 500%, and then smoothly let it back down to 100%.
How do I manage this?

What you did not explicate is that Audition CS5.5 does not support the feature - which is quite ridiculous since the earlier version CS4 does.
Anyhow, it still doesn't work; none of the options in the Normalization dialog allow me to lift the volume above 100%.
The only way I found to raise the volume is, as I already stated, is Amplify, which I already knew.
So, if the feature is not supported, then the issue has changed:
If I use Amplify, which is in decibels, then apply a Volume Envelope, which is in %, how do I confirm that the rest of the audio is being restored to its original volume?

In Multi-track window, audio mutes when it reaches a volume envelope.

...and what's up with that? I am running Audition 1.0 on a Windows XP machine with an Lynx soundcard. The problem is a new development. When the audio reaches the point at which the volume envelope changes, the audio cuts out and will not return, even if the volume is returned to unity. But, it will mix down correctly, with the volume changes done. It is just not possible to hear them before mixing it down, which is useless, of course. I have increased virtual RAM. Anybody have any ideas? My thanks in advance for your help.

Don't know if this will help... Try changing the multi-track preview/playback settings (press F4)... If the playback buffer is too big or too small you may get dropouts...
Also try to defrag the hard drive with virtual memory turned off. With VM off it may run slow, but it should defrag the swap file as well making your drive super optimized. You may have to boot in safe mode to make it work though... Of course you can turn the VM back on when you're done...

Mac Disk util did repair my volume header error but why....

I was wondering what might have caused the Volume header error that I just had to repair? Macheine was never downed... good power.. I am perplexed.

If it happens once in a while, then it's most likely something "glitched" in the memory. Even good memory can have a bad nanosecond occasionally.
If it starts happening fairly often then it's usually either bad memory or bad blocks on the hard drive.
There are third party memory tests and hard drive tests you can purchase or download that will check these things out. What I usually recommend as a starting point for memory tests, though, is the Apple Hardware Test (AHT) that came with your computer.
For your Mac Pro, I believe it is on the first install disk, Here's how you would run it:
1. Insert install disk 1 into the computer and then shut down the computer.
2. Once the computer is shut down, start it up and immediately press and hold down the D key. Don't let go until you see the AHT logo.
3. Eventually you'll get to a screen with a Test button. Before clicking it put a check mark beside Run Extended Test. This could take quite awhile, especially if you have lots of RAM (the memory test takes the longest). And expect the screen to go all sorts of colors and stuff when it tests the video RAM.
4. If there are error messages then write them down and call Applecare because it's guaranteed they'll say it needs a repair of some sort.
If there are no error messages it's not a guarantee there's no hardware problem. If it's an intermittent memory issue, the AHT may not catch it. In that case I recommend running it overnight in "looping mode". This will run the tests over and over and over until you stop it (using Ctrl-C I think) or until it comes up with an error message. To turn on looping mode follow the instructions above but before you click the Test button press Command-L.
Once again, if there are error messages call Applecare.
For the hard drive, one thing you can do if you suspect bad blocks (and this is a pain) is to back up all your data and then zero out your hard drive and then reinstall OS X. This will erase everything on the hard drive which is why you want to back up your data first.
Essentially what that does is writes zeros across the whole hard drive. If it finds a bad block then it marks it as bad and the computer won't store data in that block anymore. A few bad blocks isn't going to take up much space. Blocks are usually measured in KB so it takes a lot to equal even a GB.
For the hard drive, it's usually best to find software that can scan and test the blocks without erasing anything, though.

Latent volume envelope response?

STP seems to be responding 'late' (like 400ms or so) to sudden changes in volume. By default, my track volume is set to 0dB ... if I add a music clip, then adjust the volume down for that clip, I get a loud section of music before the volume drops.
I zoomed in on the envelope that STP automatically created, at the beginning of the music clip. There are two envelope points at 'virtually' the same time. The first point is at 0dB, and the second point is aligned with the beginning of my audio track and is at -6dB.
If I play over this section again and again, the result is inconsistent! Sometimes, the clip begins at the proper volume, and sometimes I get the spike in volume before it drops! I thought this would be fixed when I exported my mix to AIF, but the spikes are ever-present in the rendered files!
I have this problem consistently when I use volume envelopes, but not if I use clip fades.
Is there some STP setting I need to adjust? Buffer or something? Anyone else with this problem?

I've seen this problem with differing sample rates between project, files, and export selection.
Make sure they are all the same (for example 44khz0 and see if that helps your problem.

Volume envelope is disabled

I really hope this is something simple but, I was just doing some editing on a multitrack project I created in Soundtrack. I repeated some voice cuts on the same track I'd been laying these same voice cuts earlier but in their new position they seemed too loud. I didn't want to decrease the volume on the entire track, just at this point so I went into the volume envelope, added some keyframes and decreased the volume in this one specific area. I was surprise to find that the the volume didn't change. Even when I'd dragged the layer down to -96db, there was no change at all. I don't seem to have the bypass highlighted. Am I overlooking some reason the envelope would be disabled?
TIA,
Pete

I don't have any help, but I am experienceing something similar in audio files in STP2. When I apply any changes to the volume envelope or to any other Realtime effect, I cannot hear the change unless I bounce it to an action. This makes Soundtrack inhibitive to use because i can't easily hear what I am adjusting.
In SoundTrack Pro I never experienced this.

I have 3 songs that will not download and the volume of error messages from Itunes about these "3" is annoying. I know my way around Itunes but cannot find a way to delete them and stop these Itunes download error messages.

Thank you.

Thanks Mohammad - much appreciated.
I also got a response from Apple who said that there was a problem related to fonts and the encryption.xml file
Once we'd removed this we were able to upload the epub no problem.
It's odd that the system seems to say that all is okay when it isn't. We have to rely on guesswork rather a lot using iBook Producer.
Anyway, all sorted now and thank you again for your contribution.
Best wishes and a Happy New Year!

Using the clip volume envelope to amplify rather than attenuate

Hi everyone,
I was trying to edit the volume envelope of a clip in Multitrack View, and I realised that the volume envelope really only allows you to *attenuate* the volume of a clip throughout its duration, not *amplify* it. In other words, you can only add points on the envelope that are *beneath* the +0dB line, thus decreasing the volume by so-many dB.
Is there a way to also vary to volume of a clip in the other direction, that is - to amplify it, in the Multitrack View?
Many thanks for any suggestions!

Presumably because that is the limit set by Adobe for that operation. If you need more than that then you probably need to permanently increase the level of the file in Edit View.
There seems to be, however, a workaround. If, having rescaled the clip envelope to maximum, you Right click and open Clip Properties you will see that Audition has set the Clip Volume to the max of +15dB. If you reset the fader level to 0 you can then go and rescale the Envelopes a second time. This may allow you to get the gain you require. But, as mentioned above, if your levels are that low in the first place I would raise the level of the file permanently in Edit View.

Bad file name or volume name error

Hello All,
I am currently in a session when all of the sudden, as I arm a track to record and press record i get an error that states..
"Bad File Name or Volume Name (perhaps zero length)
Result Code = -37"
Anybody know how to fix this?

Same message here whenever i try to do a "save as". I've already repaired permissions. Any other ideas?

JWSDP 2.0 and SAAJ SOAP - envelope error

I've integrated JWSDP 2.0 SAAJ security into a J2EE servlet that sends and receives SAAJ SOAP. I have tested and verified all sample security configurations except encryptv1.xml and encryptv2.xml. My issues is that although I am able to encrypt messages within the servlet, I am unable to decrypt. I have a java client running on the command line that interacts with the servlet and it is able to encrypt and decrypt (actually decrypts the encrypted error response raised by the servlet). I am also able to get the client to interact (encrypt/decrypt) successfully with a simpler servlet on standalone tomcat. I am using jboss 4.0.3RC2 and jboss 4.0.4GA both with tomcat55 and java 5. The error I receive is as follows:

Veritas Volume Manager errors

I am running a Solaris Ultrasparc Enterprise 450 Server with Solaris 8 operating system. This past weekend, I received the following errors relating to Volumen Management on our disks.
I need help in understanding what happened and how to fix it. The only thing I found was that 2-3 filesystems were over 90% and I was able to have files removed, and thus reduce the capacity by 20%. But I still would like to know what happened and how to prevent these errors from happening again. I am new to storage management.
"Failures have been detected by the VERITAS Volume Manager: failed disks: disk04 failed plexes: vol02-02 vol04-02 vol06-P04 These volumes are still usable, but the the redundancy of those volumes is reduced. Any RAID-5 volumes with storage on the failed disk may become unusable in the face of further failures. VERITAS Volume Manager is preparing to relocate for diskgroup rootdg. Saving the current configuration in: /etc/vx/saveconfig.d/rootdg.060312_032923.mpvsh Relocation was not successful for subdisks on disk disk04 in volume vol04 in disk group rootdg. No replacement was made and the disk is still unusable."
Please advise. Thanks.

Out of the 11 or 12 disk drives on the system in question, disk# 8 (c3t1d0) was labeled "unformatted", when I ran the format, analyze, and read commands. Does this mean the disk can be re-formatted or replaced? I will dig into the documenation in the meantime.
This is the result I get when I run the vxprint -g rootdg -thf command:

Cannot optimize volume - Receive error "The specified extrinsic Method does not exist"

When I try to optimize a volume on a server running Windows Server 2012 (R1). I receive the below error. This volume is an ISCSI target to our Compellent SAN. Other Servers don't have an issue with volumes created on the same SAN and I have already ran ChkDsk
and it returned no errors. Oddly enough I can run a "Defrag T: /D" but a "Defrag T: /O" returns
"Incorrect Function. (0x80070001)" (Incidentally an "Optimze-Volume T -Defrag" also works)
Any Ideas? I'm stumped!

I did stumble upon that article as well and working through it didn't help. This is an Exchange 2013 server but I wouldn't think that that would exclusively cause a problem like this (unless there is something under the hood that Exchange 2013 is secretly
doing). The C drive is for the OS, the M drive is for the Exchange DB, and the
T drive is for the Logs. The C drive is "directly" connected and the M and T drives are on the same SAN (different LUNs) via iSCSI. This is running as a virtual guest on VMWare ESXi v5.5. I have other servers setup the
same way (not Exchange servers though) with drives on the iSCSI SAN and there are no issues when I run those Optimize-Volume commands. Here is some more output from the console:

Rebuilds, permissions, volume structure error/fixes ???....

Just setup a new iMac with OSX4.8 of course. Loaded Adobe suite and MS office. Transferred a bunch of files from my prev Mac G4. So now, only 3 weeks into using it, I've got misc errors that show up when I run Drive Genius or Apple Drive Utility. In fact the Apple Drive Utility failed to repair. Drive Genius seemed to have more success after rebuilding first.
I'm not a newby to Macs having used them since '84, but I got to say, I'm a little on edge with these file/volume/structure issues or whatever.
Can one of you experts out there describe in laymen's terms what are these volume/structure/rebuilds/etc error and fixes ? What causes these corruptions in the first place?

Disk Utility starts to do it's thing then stops and
shows "failure to complete". So went to Drive Genius
to do more in depth analysis, the repair routine
actually showed 3 tries then failure.
Hi Thomas,
This looks like you are running Disk Utility from your hard drive and if so, it cannot repair it because it is your startup disk. To repair your startup hard disk, you need to start up from another source like the install disk that you got with your new Mac.
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. In the left pane, delect your Mac OS X volume. (If you do not see it, click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.)
4. Along the top of the right pane, Click the First Aid tab.
5. below, Click Repair Disk. (Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.)
If it reports any errors, re-run Repair Disk until it reports no errors.
6. Repair Disk Permissions.
