Hey Rounik Using Logic 7.2.3(961.9) I recorded my band -- 11 audio files in Logic 8 I burnt the audio files to a disc - placed them on my home computer - and proceeded to drag them into a logic 7 arrange page I fully mixed the song using all kinds of plug-ins - and automation even strip silence ( no beat mapping) worked great -- After watching the steve horlick video on beat mapping I thought I might try some kick replacement etc... to protect my original mix i dragged the original audio files into a new logic song - i think... maybe i re-saved as a new title humh... anyway... I beat mapped - stripped silence -- no plugins no automation -- and now when i resize the arrange page while editing I get pauses, colourful spinwheel stuff and logic freezes -- at times i even "force quit" project file other files seem to react as normal - I did find one file labeled as "song name.bak" reacted the same once i turned on global tracks This is the first time i 've had a problem with speed - I run a mac pro dual core intel 3.0 ghz processor 4 gb ram about 53 gb on my hard drive where the file exists - also use m-audio firewire 410 - tiger OS X 10.4.11 I'm wondering if there is a global tracks connection? worried Jeff

I went to strip silence a kick drum region... song is 4 minutes long. when i select the region to strip silence - the resolution is so small i can't get a visual for when i adjust the parameters - i.e. threshold -- i guess because the region is so long -- no window adjustment in the corner of the window am i crazy ??? logic 7.2.3 by the way Jeff

thanks I've noticed that logic 8 seems to be better for this -- no?

I completed a mix of my band playing live in our studio, re-recorded some parts anyway, I finish the mix... I watch the strip silence Steve H master class tutorial - and I think hey I should try beat replacement on my bands kick drum etc...- so I figure I will "Save as..." and that way I will not mess up my original final mix. ..I go to open up my original mix of the song (good copy) a week later - OMG!!!! what happened Tracks were playing back at different sample and bit rates, kick drum regions are missing, out of time I don't know what happened it is a total disaster!!! can audio files be affected in other projects if they are used in more than one project?? Feaked Out !!! Jeff

Thanks Rounik Just glad to know I'm not going crazy Jeff

Hey Rounik Where is the asset area, and where do i check my save as... settings Jeff

BTW - I'm using logic pro 7.2.3

How about "Save a Copy As..." Jeff

"Save as Project ..." allows you to select either ... "leave" "copy" or "move" -- Audio Files Jeff p.s. in LOgic 7.2.3 - anyway...

made my pictures..... how do I install them into the Logic 7 program Jeff
