Why Is Multitrack Quieter Than Edit View

I have been working with Adobe Audition 3.0 for awhile now and recently noticed that
when I am in Multitrack View the sound is good but a little better in Edit View. I saw the post where you can go to preferences in Multitrack View and adjust the pan from -3db to L/R cut and I didn't notice any change in the sound......Is this normal? The reason I noticed it is when I did a mixdown in Multitrack it was lower. So then I did one in Edit View and it sounded great.........Can anyone help me with this? I would really like to know what may be happening here......Thanks

and hear is a gr8 oppurrtuunnnity to highlight such a god - aweful manual (as in manual labor) :
Multitrack preferences
In the Preferences dialog box, click the Multitrack tab to optimize recording, playback, and mix down:
Defaults
Specifies recording and panning settings for multitrack sessions.
Recording Bit Depth
Select 16‑bit or 32‑bit.
Stereo Panning Mode
Select Left/Right Cut (logarithmic) to pan left by reducing the volume of the right channel, and pan right by reducing the left channel volume. The channel being panned to doesn’t increase in volume as panning gets closer to 100%. Or select Equal‑Power Sinusoidal to pan left and right channels with equal power, so that a hard pan left has the same loudness as both channels together. This results in an increase of 3 dB RMS on the channel being panned to when at 100%.To override the default panning mode for a specific session, see Mixing properties for sessions.
Note: Because Equal‑Power Sinusoidal panning can make one channel louder than the original waveform, audible clipping can occur in 16‑bit sessions. To avoid this, work in the 32‑bit realm.
^^uhh WTF, english pleaze motherfvcker.
Where in here does it say anything regarding mixdowns and that a mixdown will be -3db if one option is selected and not if the other one is selected?
Panning is something different then mixing down, so many people would get confused and not realize that this is how you set it to be -3db when mixing down or NOT.
Bad manual, bad company.
Good program that has been sabatoged by corporate k!kes and the like.

Photo rotaion in organize view different than edit view & slideshow

Photo rotaion in organize view different than edit view & slideshow. The fact that the power supply to the computer was accidentally disconnected while I was working in iPhoto no doubt was the cause of this phenom.
Any suggestions as to how to re-sync the rotations back up?

Thanks for the tip. I wasn't aware of the use of theses two keys simultaneously. It occured to me after this post to just trash the whole library which I had just created for this particular group of photos and re-import the photos to a newly re-created library. I still had the camara connected so as it turned out it was fairly easy. Now that I think about it, if this hadn't been a newly created library just for this group of photos it wouldn't have worked so simply, so I guess I discovered another benifit for having multiple libraries.
I'm glad you recomended the apple/alt key combo though as this knowledge no-doubt will come in handy at some time.

Voice Over Recording Edit view vs Multitrack View

Hi Guys, need some advice here.
I have always recorded Voice Overs in edit view with Audition 3.0 (Windows 7 64bit)
Recently I purchased a Creative sound card (X-Fi Titanium HD) which sounds great and records 24/96Khz with great results using several different microphones, mainly a EV RE20.
I have the main outputs of my mixer left and right coming out using 1/4 inch cables and going into the soundcards Aux left and right inputs via RCA..
In Auditions audio hardware setup edit view, there is only a choice for either Aux left or Aux right but not a mix of both as a input. (using Aux left)
Not using the mic input on the card because I wanted to use the RCA ins (Left/Right) on the soundcard and the mic input is a single 1/8 input which would require another Y 1/4 to 1/8 cable and the fact that I have had issues with 1/8 inputs before.
So, when I record Voice Overs in edit view, I think I"m really getting only half the signal (Aux left) which means I need to up the gain on the preamp more than I would like to get a good level.
Recently, I have been recording in multitrack view using Track 1 Aux left and Track 2 Aux right and then doing a mixdown to mono which results in a nice strong level without having to boost the gain to much.
So I guess my questions would be am I in fact only recording half the signal in edit view by just using Aux left
and if that is true, should I just continue to record in multitrack view using the setup I decribed above.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I have always heard that if you just raised the level using gain you take the chance of also introducing more noise in the signal and I was wanting to avoid that.
The short and sweet answer to this is that once you've recorded the signal, the amount of noise is fixed. But what you have to do to optimise this is called 'gain staging'. In the case of your preamp, this invariably means that you set the gain so that the clipping indicator (I take it that it has one?) indicates that you've got it just lower than it takes to light it on the loudest sound you want to record. With these signals present, you then set the input level control on your sound device (not the same as gain) so that it records these signals at around -5 to -10dB, in a controlled environment. In a non-controlled environment you'd allow a bit more than that. This gap between the -10dB and 0dB is called 'headroom'.
So basically, you are recording the best signal to noise ratio you can get from your preamp at the best level you can with your sound device. And that, by definition, is optimum.

Different Audio Levels in Edit View vs. Multitrack View

Here's what happens...
I begin a new session. I then import a .wav file and it appears in the left column. I double-click the .wav so I'm in Edit View. When I play the clip, it ranges from about -9 to -6 dB. Now I go back to Multitrack View without having edited or changed the .wav in any way. I send the clip to Track 1. When it plays back, it now ranges from about -12 to -9 dB on the levels meter...this is an issue. In terms of trying to balance audio levels within a session, something that sounds good in one view might be too loud or too soft when playing back in the other. It's my understanding that regardless of Edit View or Multitrack View, a .wav should play at the same exact levels (unless you tamper with the mixer which I have not done).
So my question is, why is there a 3dB difference between playing a clip in Edit View vs. Multitrack View?

Try setting view>advance session properties>mixing>
L/R cut logarithmic

Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button and othr times it says file, edit, view History, bookmarks, tools, help? I barely learn how to run one version of the page and then it changes

Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button on the top left that opens a panel with all the things listed in it and then it sometimes has a bar across the top that says File, Edit, View, History, bookmarks, tools, Help? I barely get used to using one type of set up and then it changes to the other without me doing anything??

[[Menu bar is missing]] and [[Preferences are not saved]] may help to you

How do I get "File", "Edit", "View", etc. to show up on my toolbar rather than them all being consolidated into "Menu"?

I don't want everything consolidated under "Menu", I want to see "File", "Edit", "View", etc. listed across my toolbar. I played around with it as much as possible, and I have searched Firefox Help to no avail. I can't believe this option would be non-existent. The consolidation may be visually pleasing, but functionally it's annoying and is slightly more time consuming. Please help, thank you very much. (^-^)/

Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

I updated to Firefox 4 and there's no orange Firefox button and the Menu Bar is still there (File, Edit, View, etc.). Can anyone tell me why this is happening?

As the question states, I tried updating from Firefox 3 to Firefox 4 two different ways and though I see a difference, it's definitely not all of Firefox 4. I updated with the auto update installer and downloaded the exe and installed and it's still not right. I don't have the new Firefox style or the Infamous Orange Firefox button. My Menu Bar (File, Edit, View, Etc...) is still there as well. The only thing that has really changed is the tabs going above the URL bar. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

To get the new style UI you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.

I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5. When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different. Why doesn't it appear edited?

I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5. When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different. Why doesn't it appear edited?

People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
So IMO we can divide image processing into:
operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

Weird things happen in Edit view...

Some (but NOT all)of my photos do weird things when you Double-Click them to get into Edit view. Most of my photos zoom in to their appropriate sizes and are viewed 'normally', however, other photos initially come up in their normal zoomed size then in a second of two, zoom in again several times larger than they should be, and the colors will pop your eyes out, like a reverse negative or something and the photos gets all 'chunky' or 'blocky'. Fortunately, only a small number of my photos zoom in wildly like this.
Anyone seen this, have a clue what causes it and most importantly, can it be fixed to STOP doing this?
Thanks

Well, I used to see this problem way back in the v7 days of the purple app. It's not an FCP exclusive problem, though I have seen it happen one time with Final Cut.
Glad to help you solve this one, Jamie. You can help others who come to this thread later, by marking the Helpful & Solved posts in the thread. That way, when others are searching for solutions to this problem, they can scan down quickly and easily to those posts, and see the yellow and green stars.
I've posted this request on a number of threads, both those I've helped or solved, and those I had no helpful contributions for. I'm just trying to help make the new forum as usable as ut can be.

Very slow pasting data from the Clipboard into a Sharepoint 365 list by using the Quick Edit view

In sharepoint 2010 it was very fast to paste data from the Clipboard by using the Data Sheet view. Why is it so slow in Sharepoint 365 when using the Quick Edit View? is there a workaround?also in Sharepoint 365 if you try to
paste a large number of records (2,000) it will freeze.

I'm interest about same thing. Clipboard is often only way to migrate lists between sharepoint versions and now it is almost unpossible to use.

Editing in Photoshop vs Edit view on double-click?

Recently redoing preferences in iPhoto 4, I was thinking again that it would be nice to have those 2 choices be separately controlled, not alternates. I use Photoshop quite a lot, but not on every photo, and in iPhoto I'm used to the double click giving me the edit view, for browsing, sorting and deleting files.
In general I like iPhoto better than Bridge for an image browser, with its Mail & print options. And Bridge doesn't do well with over 100 or so images in a folder, while iPhoto will handle 8000 at least.
Rather than exporting a copy and using Photoshop from there (& that's too much hard drive space), I guess I can go into Preferences and change the setting every time I want to use Photoshop or go back to browsing, but what a nuisance. A different way to open in Photoshop would be much more convenient, leaving the double-click still enabled for edit view. Does anybody know if that's in the more recent versions of iPhoto? Or is there some other way to do this?
.

Choose PhotoShop as your preferred external editor in iPhoto preferences, but don't select that radio button. After that, a double click on a thumbnail in iPhoto will open the image in iPhoto; but a control-click (or right-click, if you have a two-button mouse) will bring up a contextual menu where you can choose to open the image in the external editor you set in preferences.
Just remember, if you choose to save the edited copy with a different name (and/or in a different format), use "Save As..." to save it back to a location outside of your current iPhoto Library so you don't corrupt your iPhoto database.

Some pictures will not open on Edit view

Hi,
Using iPhoto 5.0.4, all the files are (.jpg) I have a roll of pictures imported off the digital camera thru the application that when I double click, open up in the edit view as a black window. Every other file opens fine. I can see the small pictures in the library and the album of these files. If I try to expand any other files they instantly expand. In the case of these problem files, they instead after a delay, end up as an outlined box the color of my background. in this case grey.
However if I go directly to the iPhoto library, locate the file, and open it with Preview, it opens the file beautifully and I can cover the entire screen with the photo, so the information is obviously there.
I looked for answers on the discussions, I tried someones suggestion to check permissions, for the entire library which I did with no change in the problem. I have several copies of these files, the problem is with all of them. And when I tried to export these files to a CD as an archive, other files were okay, these did not copy, instead their title, file #, etc showed up on the directory for the CD, but each file contained 0 KB.
Thanx to anyone who can figure this out. I suspect it has happened to others, but not to me. I don't like this.

Hi Dr. spock,
this sometimes happens when files are renamed in the finder (specifically the iPhoto Library folder in your Pictures folder.
Try this suggestion from Old toad our forum guru:
There is a way you can recover your library. Here's what I developed and it worked for me. But make a backup copy of your iPhoto Library folder beforehand just in case:
How to recover those photos lost due to renaming in the Finder1 - do a search of just the iPhoto library folder with the following criteria:
File name contains ".jpg" (or .psd) and File size is less than 1 KB. (You can just do a search for File size less than 1 kb but do not delete the other zero sized files that are of a non image type).
That will find all of those zero sized files that were created when iPhoto couldn't fine the originals.
2 - move those zero sized image files to the trash.
3 - now delete those "bad" photos from the iPhoto library using the normal method within iPhoto (if you don't they will be recovered every time you do a library rebuild with the "recover orphaned photos" option selected).
4 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and when the rebuild menu comes up select the last option, "Recover orphaned photos in the iPhoto Library folder".
This will recover those renamed files and put then in a new roll. The only downside is that their titles in iPhoto will be "Roll xx-1, etc. You can do a Get Info on them, find the actual file name and change the title so they are the same.
So it can be done with a little work.
The only way to rename files that have already been imported into iPhoto is to export them to the desktop, rename them there and then reimport. Once imported you can delete the original set.
Hope this has been of some help. Good luck.

Why iCal cancel of event edits issue is still not fixed after over 2 years?

Why iCal "cancel of event edits" issue is still not fixed after over 2 years?
I have been in the software engineering industry for over 14 years, but I have never seen a large corporation being so slow at addressing major issues like these.
What would it take for Apple to start working on this issue?

Yup. This is fully ridiculous that you can't cancel your updates once you start. I love the tool but this is on pretty significant issue.
Sometimes I accidentally move a mtg or make some edit while viewing and you can't back you!!
If you feel the same way, you should post a note here:

Editable views with instead of triggers in Oracle 10G

Hi,
We are attempting to migrate our database application from Oracle 9i to Oracle 10G. We have found that we are getting the error [ORA-03113 end-of-file on communication channel] when we attempt to insert multiple rows into database tables using editable views equipped with INSTEAD OF triggers. When inserting multiple rows, we are using a single insert statement of the form insert into...select from. Strangely enough, when the select query within the insert statement returns a single row, the insert statement is successful. We also noticed that if we issue a commit right before executing the insert statement, the insert statement is successful regardless of the number of rows being inserted. But this is not a viable workaround as the current transaction contents needs to be maintained. We did not have these issues in Oracle 9i. Does Oracle 10G have any known issues with editable views equipped with INSTEAD OF triggers? Are there any settings in the INIT.ORA file that can resolve these issues? Thanks for your help.

Confirmed. If you use 2D input, or change the Z dimensions so they are different, you will get the results you expect in 10g. Otherwise - a line.
I'm not sure why, and can't see a bug report on that in support, but obviously it was recognized and fixed as you indicate.
Try it with 2D input, and it will work:
select sdo_aggr_mbr(
SDO_GEOMETRY(2003, NULL, NULL, SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 1003, 3),
SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(-10, -10, 10, 10))
from dual;
Or with different Z values:
select sdo_aggr_mbr(
SDO_GEOMETRY(3003, NULL, NULL, SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 1003, 3),
SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(-10, -10, 1, 10, 10, 11))
from dual

Audition shuts down when I go into edit view

Just recently, when i tried going into Edit View Audition has begun crashing after i receive the same 2 error messages. I have been able to duplicate these messages every single time I try this. (Also the program loads and performs perfectly in Multitrack view). Anyway, the first message is...
Shutting Down...
To continue working where you left off, please restart Audition
[OK]
(then after I press ok...)
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Program: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Audition 3.0\Audition.exe
R6025
- pure virtual function call
[OK]
Since this has started happening (maybe 3 days ago) I've uninstalled EVERYTHING that I have installed in the past week, tried renaming the 3.0 folder, tried reinstalling audition and many other things that I've read online, and absolutely none of it has helped. Does anyone on Earth have any suggestions, because not being able to go into Edit View is absolutely crippling.
Audition 3 worked perfectly for me for over a year now and just suddenly I can't do a damn thing with it. I really think we need to finally figure out a real solution to this (because I know many other people have had this problem, although i'm not sure if it's just when they try to go into edit view...)

I suspect changing the audio driver won't make a difference, though it's certainly worth a shot. Generally, when something like this occurs in certain editing modes, but not others, it's related to the Workspaces documents. It's pretty simple to verify: Open Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\3.0\ and move or rename the two Workspaces folders. (Note: AppData may not be visible by default depending on your configuration, but you can manually append it to the location bar and it should become visible.) After moving these folders, launch Audition. Audition will rebuild them to the defaults. Let us know if the problem still occurs. Thanks, Durin
