Wave Loops

I made an house track in cubase and exported 7 different loops: kick, snare, hi-hat ....
all loops are 13 sec . when i adding a loop to flash in some variations (streaming ..and all the others) when I play the flash file the loop ends and i have a small deley until he starts again. I make sure that the frames are in 13 sec long. How should i insert the wave files so they will be reapeted without any deley.

you should use the flash sound class to create instances of your files. that will give you better control of your sounds including some ability to skip white space at the end of beginning of your sound files.

Auditioning wav loops at correct tempo

Hi Forum
I have been a Protools user for several years, but because of all the usual annoyances with PT I have decided to join the Logic camp, just today in fact.
However one feature I am immediately missing is the protools equivalent of "Calculate Elastic Analysis" in the workspace browser. If you are not familiar with PT, this enables you to preview wav loops at the correct tempo for your session.
In Logic I can navigate to my loops via the browser, but previewing them just plays the original tempo of the loop, not at the tempo of my session. I can of course drag it into the arrange window and fix it, but I miss the immediacy of the PT approach.
PT has a process called "Manual Indexing" that goes through all of your sample collection and extracts metadata such as tempo to make this process work. Is there perhaps an equivalent in Logic I haven't found yet? Do I have to convert all of my samples to Apple loops perhaps? but how would I do that?
Hope someone can help.

Fastest Way To Create Ultrabeat Instrument From Wav Loop?

Hello, can anyone share the fastest way to create and instrument from a WAV file?
I know you can convert a wav to ESX24 instrument but I use Ultrabeat not ESX.
Im finding my self divinding each shot into region and then exporting that to its own file.
Is there a faster/simpler way?
-Thanks

You're right! It does work, however, if you follow these steps:
1. Right-click on wave file in Arrange and choose "Slice at Transient Markers" or use the corresponding key command.
2. Select all the split regions right-click on them and choose: Convert > Convert to new audio file(s)
3. Again, with all the regions selected choose: Convert to new sampler track.
4. Now launch Ultrabeat. Click on the Import button anc choose the .exs file you've just created (will be located in your project folder). Then drag the audio files into UB as desired.
You could skip Part 3 altogether and simply slice at transients, convert to new audio file(s) and then in a new kit of UB drag them into the sample window of OSC for each part...

Why do my 3rd party loops not appear in the "Loop" tab?

I have saved some Magix wav loops into the local apple users directory of Logic Express and though I can find them using the media browser they do not appear in the loops tab listing.
Does anybody know the cure for this?

If you drag your .wav loops into the arrange area do they function properly? If not, you may need to convert them using Apple Loops Utility. After doing that you can drag the folder with the .aiff conversions onto your loops tab to import them.
You might find this old thread useful:

How do you turn third-party midi loops into Apple Loops?

Does anyone know how to turn third-party midi loops into Apple Loops? I've got hundreds of short midi files that I purchased, and I would like to be able to use them in the loop browser of Logic Studio. I tried some of the obvious ways of doing this, like using Apple Loop Utility, but it doesn't seem to recognize .mid files. Seems like .mid files would be right up its alley, so maybe I'm doing something wrong...

Yes, have the same problem but with wav loops. i have 75000 wav loops from third part and do not find how to "logicized" it. For the moment i can use them into a project but they are not adapting when i change the bpm of the projetc for exemple.
If you know the solution i would be rescued

Apple Loops Utility

I processed my first third party wav loops with ALU...some weirdness. I was able to drag both into the loops library but they showed up with tempos that I did not change them to. One showed at 82 bpm and the other at 114.11something. They were both at 120 originally and I did not change that. Also one was 4 beats the other 64??? They both played in the media window but strangely the faster tempo loop (64 beats) was painfully slow and the one at 82 (4 beats) sounded more like 120. Then I placed them in the project. There was audio at first but then no audio with either and they would not loop.
After following several threads in the ALU discussion, I'm about to conclude that trying to work with third party loops may be a waste of my time.
I want and need traditional beats in varied time signatures, so I'm very anxious to know exactly what is on the Jam Pack rhythm section and world beat.

Fake aiff and real aiff from wav ?

1) When in garageband if I just batch convert an entire folder of wav to aiff with Apple loop utility even if all the wav loops have different tempo and key all will have one meta data or information which will not hold true for all loops.....so isnt there a way later once its in GB loops to detect the real tempo of an aiff file in garageband and edit its tag and metadata from within.....?
2) It would be bliss if all the wav loops I have get converted to real aiff with correct key and tempo but does that mean it will have to be done one by one if all loops have different properties ....there is no other shortcut....?
3) can a loop in GB be opened in Apple loops utility from right clicking or something else like it does in logic....?

Thanks Edgar ,in response to your 2nd answer..........
but if I don't assign the tempo of every wav and save it as Aiff just with some tags ,I have noticed the tempo and pitch of the beat goes haywire according to the project tempo when played in the browser as it is set to some incorrect tempo metadata
1) I have a question... if we don't put key and tempo information in a loop what is the use of having an aiff loop..because it won't match any tempo or pitch in GB timeline ?..why not simply work with wav files.....or is it so that no matter if the tempo and pitch information is not filled in Apple loop utility any aiff loop created will automatically detect it and fit your loop according to project setting in GB ? which although didn't happen with me....loops went haywire,if I didn't pay attention to their real tempo and key in Apple loop utility.
2) the BPM slider and key box at the bottom of the Apple loop utility if set incorrectly or not according to the bpm automatically listed in 'info about the loop'.......changes the tempo and pitch of the wav saved as aiff......so isn't it a big concern to list tempo and pitch of evey wav.....?

Installing loops

I hope someone can help me. This is my first day an a Mac, and Im frustrated beyond belief.
I can see my "garageband" loops in the loop browser, but not the Acidfanatic loops I just downloaded. I copied the Acidfanatic loops to Macintosh HD/Library/Apple Loops/Acidfanatic. (I created the Acidfanatic folder.) When I browse to that location in Finder, I can see all the Acidfanatic loops. But when I use the search in Finder, it doesnt find them. After I copied the Acidfanatic loops from the image file to the folder path I described above, I dragged that folder to the loop browser in Garageband. It seemed to install. It asked me for my password and briefly said it was calculating a new index or something like that. But I still cant see the new Acidfanatic loops in the loop browser or in a Finder search.
Any ideas?

You are right on the point.
Download the Apple loops software from this link: ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/DevelopmentKits/Apple_Loops_SDK1.3.1.dmg
It will allow to convert the wave loops to aif loops.

Creating New Loops

Greetings-
I have a downloaded WAV loop of a drum in 96 bpm, and I want to save it as a GarageBand loop. But when I save it, it keeps its 96 bpm. In other words, when I drag it (the new loop) into a new track, it will not fall in line with the bpm of my composition. How can I change the bpm, whether by stretching it in the editor or otherwise (do they call that adjusting the velocity?), so it conforms to the timeline of my overall composition?
To clarify, I'm not speaking of dragging a loop to play longer. Rather, I need it to be self-adjusting to the bpm of the rest of my tracks, just like any other Apple Loop.
Thank you-

the best way would be to make it an apple loop with Loop Utility:

re: "Microsoft proprietary code used by IE and will not work in Firefox."<br />
Why doesn't Microsoft get busy and write some plugins for other browsers? They wrote Silverlight for Firefox. Are they afraid other browsers will become more popular then IE? Or maybe that's already happened. I have a Mac Book Pro w/OSX snow leopard. It's a superior machine and OS. I tried a HP laptop w/Win 7 first. I had to return it before regurgitating.<br />
Addendum: Reasons for my disgust w/IE:
# If you run IEv8x w/all the "security updates" the processor is bogged down until the speed is unbearably slow. I doubt if there's one lousy compute cycle left for another task.
# Reasons for the above: all those security updates etc. are dialing home with tattle tale crap, along with all the adware, spyware, malware, and viruses you can think of that are floating around in cyberspace just waiting to infect your PC w/Windows OS.
# I have Symantec/Norton Internet Security on my Mac Book Pro. None of the above stuff has infected my Mac since I bought it 2 months ago. A welcome relief.

Exporting with precise length?

Hey everyone,
Relatively new to Logic, but not a total DAW dummy. The problem I'm having is kind of infuriating but otherwise I love the software.
Basically, I am building 4- and 8-bar loops in Logic at a tempo of 103 BPM. I have uploaded my samples to a beat sequencer and am triggering them via MIDI. I then quantize the samples according to Logic's 103 BPM grid. Once I have a loop of either 4 or 8 bars, I export its track as a WAV file. Under normal circumstances, I then load the WAV file, which should be precisely 4 or 8 bars long at 103 BPM, into my sampling pad (Roland SPD-SX). With the click on the Roland set to 103, I should be able to play the loop and have it repeat indefinitely without it "creeping".
What I described above would be my best-case scenario. Thankfully, this has worked many times for me. In fact, I can double-check that it's working by using the Tempo Match feature on the Roland-- if I tell the Roland that the loop is 8 bars long, it infers that the tempo is 103 based on the length of the WAV. This works perfectly.
Until today. I did my same system as always, exactly as described above, no hitches. But when I load this new loop in the Roland, it creeps and gets ahead. The Tempo Match check? Roland says my loop is 103.4 BPM. I was careful to not make a mistake in Logic; Logic told me it was 103.
I have since tried to make this particular loop 4 or 5 times and it's always the same. The Roland thinks it's at 103.4, which I would assume means that Logic is truncating the length of the export WAV. I don't think the problem is that Logic's metronome is faulty. My ears tell me the samples within the loop are perfectly in time at 103, but at the end of the 8 bars, the loop starts again just a hair early, getting further and further ahead each time the loop recycles. Which sounds very much like Logic is truncating the length of the export WAV.
I called Roland and confirmed the issue is not with the sampling pad. Does anyone know why this is happening now and never happened before, and could someone please tell me how I can be more precise with the export length in Logic so that my pad's Tempo Match feature correctly reads the length of the WAV loop to arrive at 103 (instead of 103.4) BPM?
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time.
Jake

Logic's track export ends the exported file at the end of the audio so that if the last sound ends before the end of the four bars, it will not add the small amount of silence to the end of the file to make it come out even.
Set your left and right locators precicely at the loop start and end (4 or 8 bars), turn cycle on and bounce the loop instead of exporting it.

When I open a web page I've built on my computer, the music doesn't play. It will play if I open it in IE.

I build web pages on my computer and before I updated Firefox I could hear the music when I opened the page. Since I updated Firefox the music will not play. If I open the page in IE the music plays fine. When I go to my website on the internet, the music plays fine. It only happens when I open a page on my computer. I have Windows XP. I have downloaded all the newer plugins but nothing helps.

You need to specify a MIME type attribute.<br />

Java script on off switch issue in IE, Please help

Hello;
I wrote this little script that is an on / off switch for a background sound on my web page. I have it working in all browsers accept all versions of IE. I have been pulling my hair out for weeks trying to get this script to work in IE and have only met failure. There has to be a way to get this thing to fire properly and I just can't figure out what I am missing.You can take this script, add your own sound and see how it works. It is very simple.
code:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function stopSound(){
document.getElementById('PacSound').src='../video/silence.wav';}
function playSound() {
document.getElementById('PacSound').src='../video/RollerPop.wav'; }
</script>
</head>
<body>
<embed src="../video/RollerPop.wav" id="PacSound" autostart=true loop=true volume=100 hidden=true>
<noembed><bgsound src="../video/RollerPop.wav" loop="-1" volume="100" delay="0" id="PacSound" hidden="true"/></noembed>

<a href="javascript:stopSound();" >Stop Sound</a><br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="javascript:playSound();" >play sound</a>
</body>
I am so frustrated with this. I have tried a number of different approaches to this code and I always meet failure. I am trying to make it work so the page does not re-load it's self, just turns it on and or off.
Can anyone please help me figure this out?
Thank You

I suggest a search on the Internet for Microsoft and Javascript. Be as specific as you can and you might turn up a page or resource that shows what Microsoft supports.

No sound in Dreamweaver template

Hi everyone, I'm brand new to Dreamweaver so please excuse
the stupidity of what I'm about to ask. My problem is this: I have
created a few templates that's been working just fine with text and
images but now I want to embed a sound file and can't for the life
of me get the sound to play. I've tried including the sound file in
the template but to no avail and have seen mention on various sites
of unlocking the header but haven't worked out how to do this. Can
anyone throw me a line on this? I'm midway through a majorly
important project and would really appreciate any advice.

http://www.spentharvests.com/templates/school_chapter.dwt
This file is not found by the browser.
Even this file -
http://www.spentharvests.com/Templates/school_chapter.dwt
(the templates folder name should always have an initial cap)
The code on the child page appears nominal. But at the
bottom, you have
this -
<div id="copyright">© 2007
spentharvests.com</div>
<embed name="CS1195492309000" src="../bethelWAV.wav"
loop="false"
autostart="false" hidden="true" width="0" height="0"
enablejavascript="true"></embed>
<embed name="CS1195506747203" src="bethelWAV.wav"
loop="false"
autostart="false" hidden="true" width="0" height="0"
enablejavascript="true"></embed>
The sound file is linked TWICE, and only the second link is
correct. So in
the template, change it to this -
<div id="copyright">© 2007
spentharvests.com</div>
<embed name="CS1195506747203" src="/School/bethelWAV.wav"
loop="false"
autostart="false" hidden="true" width="0" height="0"
enablejavascript="true"></embed>
(i.e., a root relative link directly to the sound file)
and see if that helps.

Full internet signal however when I open a web browser it sometimes will not load.

About 80% of the time my web browser (Safari or chrome) will not open the internet. I am connected wirelessly and have no other issues with the other mac and PC in the house. This a 15" 2011 Mac book Pro and have already had the Hardrive replaces after having it for 2 weeks. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
