That seems to be the same as can be done in FMP using table relationships. I'm just not sure how to us...

Now that the lectures positing the hypothesis that we all should be perfect and never forget for a moment to mute our speakers and headphones have subsided, the earlier point about Roxio's insufferable arrogance in refusing to provide an easily-implemented option to turn the damned sound off is perf...

If it's as complicated as you describe, and if I'm understanding what you're trying to accomplish, you're just going to have to stick some kind of headphone distribution between your audio source and your interface so you can monitor your audio source pre-interface. There must be 50 ways to skin tha...

I've tried the duplicating tracks and the audio hardware reset tricks on several problematic pitch edited files with no joy. I appreciate every one of the user-supplied tips though, because they definitely help some people in at least some instances and hopefully the collection will help MOTU in get...

Originally posted by logo80: in the zip file there is now a new folder with all the tables in csv format. Hey, thanks Lorenzo! The three main data csvs imported with zero problems, and I'll work out setting up the relationships in FMP and some kind of GUI when I have some time this evening. I might...

Thanks pcm. I'll give that a try at some point. Asimov had the Robot Laws. I think the first law of programming should be "Thou shalt not corrupt thy own files."

But maybe Lenny Bruce already said it best: "Don't sh^t where you eat."

Originally posted by logo80: hI think that a .sql file can be imported but if you prefere a simple tab limited text file of any of the table you're welcome I'll do as soon as I can. It would be greatly appreciated if you get a chance. You can't directly import an sql db into FileMaker without inves...

More Pitch Editing Crap: So I went back to the last version of this particular song that didn't crash DP, have spent hours now doing more editing to it, including some more pitch editing. I wanted to see what I had done in one of the sections of the song in an earlier version (that I'd had to abando...

This isn't meant as a Zen question or a challenge. I mean I really, genuinely don't know why MAS has been carried over into OS X and Core Audio. It seems to me, from an admittedly uninformed point of view, that it's an overlay of a sound handling system on a sound handling system and I can't see any...

Originally posted by Shooshie: And about those snaps, crackles and pops I had a thought about that (please hold the applause): 1) For one brief shining moment, you experienced the Nirvana of blissful snap-crackle-pop-free audo, and that was using an Apple-configured Aggregate Device in DP. 2) MOTU'...

Some newer information on the Eternally Crashing Song: I've been going back opening some earlier saved versions of this pitch editing excursion, and have found one (several saves back) that plays at the accursed spot without crashing DP. In doing so, I noticed that in the one that works, DP's Backgr...

I'm still having major problems with a song that I did a considerable amount of pitch shifting work on, not only some minor pitch corrections to the lead vocal, but creation of a harmony part from that vocal. Initial discussions on some of the pitch shifting bugs seem to have tapered off into the di...

1) Pitch-shifting bugs hosed. (One of my songs with pitch shift still causes a flaming crash at exactly the same point every time I try to play it. Duplicating the track and deleting the original did nothing. Then there's the erratic behavior reported by others in several threads.) 2) Up/Down arrow ...

Originally posted by logo80: hi, I've finished the first copy of a DB with Tips, Author, Title and Keywords Lorenzo, I hate to ask and don't know how involved it is, but is there any chance you could export the data as a tab-delimited text file for import as a flatfile db into Filemaker for those o...

Shooshie gets a "Can't Be Done" crystal Unicorn Horn. Can't be done. I still, after years of working with DP, will space out and select MIDI notes and tap the up or down arrow, just as though I think something ought to happen as a result. And I always think, "Well why the hell doesn't...
