Why are my logic pro audio files saving in my iTunes folder in the finder?

When i go to the finder, in my itunes section all my logic audio files appear and i have hundreds. im not quite sure whether this is normal or not? any explantions on how i can sort the files out and avoid them being saved in that folder in the future?

You could look in File > Project Settings > Recording and there's a button labelled 'Set..' for you to make sure that any of your Logic project files are stored in the right folder - the usual sequence of events is that Logic asks you to define a recording path as soon as you arm your first audio track and a project folder is actually created for you, so.....
I haven't thought enough about how iTunes works (I use it sometimes, that's all) but a playlist or some kind of other category might have a folder containing links (aliases) to the original files ?

  • Merging two or more audio files, by a contextual menu item within the finder

    Hello, everyone,
    I want to merge or concatenate two or more simple audio files (wavs at the same sample rate and bit depth) into a new wav file - which don't need any conversion. I want to do this using a contextual menu service within the finder. Is there any possibility to do this? I can't find any software in the market that will allow me to do this.
    so that,
    'start.end_1.wav' + 'start.end_2.wav' + 'start.end_3.wav' = 'start.end_1&start.end_2&start.end_3.wav'
    Can anyone help? would sox help me with this, and if so, how to add it onto a finder contextual menu?

    Both of those directories are empty and I have deleted them and re-created them. I have been able to add and remove plugins for other applications so this is very strange.
    Using "Easy Find" I did locate a preference file, which I have deleted but that has not resolved it. I have tried safe mode and single user mode but no luck. I couldn't find any automator actions either.
    When I click on the menu item it says "ClamXav is not installed. Please install ClamXav and try again" so it knows it needs to use this program somehow.
    It's very odd and must be a result of a crash I had, though I would love to get to the bottom of it, it isn't serious and will hopefully go when I upgrade to Snow Leopard
    Thanks for your help though as it has taught me a few things!

  • Soundtrack pro audio files with software

    Im missing sound audio files. When I follow along with the lessons in Lynda.com the teacher shows something like 5011 files for audio and I have 2500. I did it step by step as he show to reset everything and still it finds only 2500 of the audio files. Im missing the audio files that the lesson is loading up for the lesson. Anyone know why I am missing the files? Where can I get the rest of them? Im missing all the audio files that start with the lettter A under instruments and bass loop. I have 78 and the lesson shows 306 I think. Thanks in advance.

    Make sure you are indexing all of your Apple Loops folders. Do a spotlight search on Apple loops, and sort by type, to see the folders.
    My main Apple Loops folder is in Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/Apple Loops for Soundtrack Pro, but I also have others for GB (some dupes) and others I have purchased in other folders.
    Click Setup... to see your directories, then the + to add a directory, or select a directory and click Index now to re-index it.
    If all of that fails, I think all of the loop content is on the install disks, but I don't know a way to get it without completely reinstalling.
    OH, BTW, you're using the same version of STP as the Lynda.com tutorial, yes?

  • Why are my video edits not being saved on Photoshop CS6?

    Why are my video edits not being saved on Photoshop CS6?
    I made a TON of edits in a video group, then duplicated that group into another file... and all my edits are gone.
    I spent hours working on this, so please let me know what the hell happened and how I can make sure it never happens again...
    also--why would CS6 come with such a devastating feature?!?! Who came up with this???

    Welcome to the forum.
    I did not see any reference to Save, Save_As, or Save_As_a_Copy. Did you use one of those?
    Good luck,

  • Why are Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 source and program monitors playing each others footage?

    Why are Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 source and program monitors playing each others footage? I import my footage into the project like normal. I drag it to the source monitor on the left hand side to set in and out points then I drag it to the time line. The footage drops into the time line with no problem but when I go to play the footage in the time line it plays back on the source monitor and not on the program monitor like it is suppose to. Other times ill drag the clip to the time line and trim it there and it will be fine and show up on the program monitor.  Then ill go try to set a clip to have in and out points (which is suppose to show up in the source monitor) but it shows up in the program monitor. The clip is not even in the time line it should not be on that monitor! I have updated the program to the late update. I have re installed the program numerous times and I have even ran the Adobe Clean up program. Couldn't find much on this problem. Please help thank you! I have a PC. My computer is also way over the recommended minimum specifications to have the program installed on.

    Definitive Answer (I believe): It's all about this setting, "Write XMP ID To Files On Import" - which confirms that Adobe Premiere Pro is deliberately modifying the .mov file: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/preferences.html#WSE3BD4A43-7022-4fe6-97F5-95313 935347B
    These posts give some background as to why having this setting enabled would be beneficial: one benefit being to be able to skip conforming files by matching the conformed file with the original using the embedded XMP tag :-

  • Why isn't Logic Pro X content available on flash drive?

    Why isn't Logic Pro X content available on flash drive?
    Running Logic Pro version 10.1.1
    Imac 3.1 GHz Intel Core 7
    16 GB RAM
    Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 1024 MB
    Software  OS X 10.9.5

    If you ask nicely at an Apple Store... and take your Mac with you.... they will download and install LPX for you..... along with all it's content...
    As for why they don't offer it on a flash drive?
    Who knows.....
    It's Apple.... Its the App Store system... Its all about the Apple ID.. it's where things are leading, away from the physical to the non physical medium... and so on..They do things their way.. whether we like it or not... and if you don't like it?
    Then choose a different DAW (or move to a different OS via bootcamp) ..  It's no skin off their nose... so to speak... but it will cost you more...(in most cases a lot more)  for a boxed / non downloadable edition.. For example... Cubase 8 = $550... Live 9 Suite (Boxed) = $800....   Motu DP = $500.. Bitwig = $300... and so on...
    $199 for LPX..and all its content...  It's a steal, box or no box...
    My only issue is.. it would be good to be able to easily download and store a copy of everything myself.. without having to resort to somewhat tricky methods to do so.. so I could easily install everything on a non internet connected Mac...

    Does anybody know why Illustrator will open Solidworks DWG files saved in R2007-2009 version but not version R2010?

    Evidently Solidworks changed the output of their files to a format that AI cannot interpret. Just backsave in Solidworks to the required version.

  • No Video when using the "Send To Soundtrack Pro Audio File" Command

    Hello FCP Users,
    After reading and rereading the FCP and STP manuals and scouring the boards; I still can not figure out how to view my video clip while I'm editing/sweetening audio in STP. I have even used the DVD tutorial in an attempt to figure it out (all works fine and good with the tutorial example), but I'm stuck here the real world.
    I'm thinking their must be some preference setting somewhere in STP that I've missed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!
    Best regards,
    Jeff
    From the Manual:
    Soundtrack Pro creates a new audio file project (with the file type .stap) for the clip. The clip can contain video and audio or contain only audio.
    In the Final Cut Pro Timeline, Control-click the clip, then choose “Send To >
    Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project” from the shortcut menu."

    Rob,
    The audio consists of two separate audio tracks A1 is from a lav mic and A2 is from an on-camera mic.
    It was captured DV.
    If I rt click the video clip in the "video tl" the "Send To Soundtrack Pro Audio File" in the dialog box is grayed out/not available for selection, but the Send To Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Program is available to select.
    If I choose to Send To Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Program I get the following an error message: Error sending selection to Soundtrack Pro.
    I've tried de-selecting the "linked selection" in the tl and rt click the audio clip in the "audio tl" and that allows me to "Send To Soundtrack Pro Audio File" , but no video in the utility window of STP.
    If I select the "linked selection" in the tl and rt click the audio clip in the "audio tl" the "Send To Soundtrack Pro Audio File" in the dialog box is grayed out/not available for selection, but the Send To Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Program is available to select.
    If I choose to Send To Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Program I get the following an error message: Error sending selection to Soundtrack Pro.
    It looked all so simple in the tutorial. I'm going on five hours of trying to find an answer to this issue any other suggestions before I slit my wrists? Thanks for your input.

    You need to reinstall all of your Apps. That should replace all of the support files you nuked.

  • Cannot use the Send to Soundtrack Pro Audio File Command

    I cannot use the Send to Soundtrack Pro Audio File Command, only the Multitrack and it's starting to really get on my nerves. It is unhiglighted. If I unlink the clip and select only half of the audio, the option re-appears. I have no idea what is wrong.

    As an audio file, you can only send one clip at a time. This is a feature, not a bug. See the book for more information.

  • Unable to "Send to: Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project"

    With a solo clip in its own sequence, I wanted to do some audio work in Soundtrack Pro. I control-clicked on the clip and selected "Send to." The option for Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project is grayed out, not allowing me to select it.
    Any suggestions?

    I figured out you can only do "one track" at a time and not multiple tracks. Once I Option clicked on the single track, it came back. Just FYI.

  • Where is the download area for Logic pro 9

    where is the download area for Logic pro 9 on the apple site?

    If you mean, you want to purchase Logic Pro 9, you cannot... as it has been discontinued... and is no longer sold.
    If you mean you previously purchased it via the app store and want to download it again onto a new Mac, look under the Purchased Tab in your Mac App Store application.... making sure you have signed in using the same Apple ID you used to purchase it originally.
