Effectiveness of compression?

We use a RN104 (which replaced a standalone PC companion) to save backups of Windows Image and empty the database file before transfer off site.

The Windows system images were fairly compressible uses NTFS compression.

The file of database dumps were highly compressible.

For example;

A byte 333,520,896 file gives the following results;

NTFS 126,586,880

ZIP 57,962,496

BZ2 48,298,874

As near as I can tell, unless there is another method of verification (used for 'ls - l' ssh), the size on the disk from ReadyNAS is 333,170,328, barely 1% savings and hardly worth the effort.

As a result, the customer does not receive the history file save ability than we expected.

Our expectations are too high? Firmware is 6.2.4.

Based on the wiki link, I think you need to do a df before and after compression.

  • -Amplitutde and Compression effects

    Hello everyone.

    Would you explain how much Compression Do?

    Thank you very much.

    Compression is one of the most useful effects, he very probably asked is on the majority of the securities if speech or music.

    All sound recording gives you a dynamic range - which is actually the difference between the quietest part of the signal and the strongest.  In an ideal world you can leave it as is, but most of the time when you mix, if you define things for strong peaks, quiet rooms will be lost.  Alternatively, when someone is listening to your mix on headphones on a noisy bus or something, to hear the bits alone, you need to have the volume up so strong parts would hurt your ears.

    .. .and what is that compression.  It allows you to control the dynamic range of your recording.  As a general rule, you can configure it so that it refused the strongest bits and the two leaves the quiet bits along or, sometimes, it can turn up the quiet bits while limiting stronger parts.

    The problem is that controls to implement the effect of compression can be somewhat complicated to learn.  The simplest (and very useful) in Audition's effects/Amplitude and Compression/dynamics.  The default setting for this is a GUI rather than buttons and numbers.  If you spend a little time looking at the blue line, it gives you (and perhaps by examining some of the presets) you can see how, by putting mark on the blue line and dragging them, you can set it that way, for example, nothing can be more stronger than-6dB, then things between-30 and -15 are a little stronger (do not take these figures as anything other than an example besides).

    By the way, the Compression is usually used with a feature called "Embracing Gain" which raises levels to compensate for the limit you may have applied to the summits.  This can be in the compressor itself or using the feature to 'Normalise' under the menu even Amplitude and Compression.

    FYI, in addition to the treatment of the dynamics I mentioned, hearing has several other compressors - tube multiband, single Strip, modelled and so on.  They do things a little different, but I will not try to confuse you by their review.

    Finally, if you want to read about some details more compression/dynamic transformation, you can take a look at dynamic - processor technology and Applications on the site "Rane Notes."  It's hardware compressors but those of hearing works the same, and it gives a good description of what the various controls.

    I hope this helps.

  • Best setting / Compression for After Effects cc > iMovie 10 > YouTube?

    After the novice effects. With the help of a photo gallery of videohive.net model.

    Exported to the default setting, lossless HD 1080. The clip is: 42 and enjoyed 5 GB, which I suppose is too big to work with iMovie. Very rough overview.

    So, should what setting I choose to export to After Effects? Knowing the: 42 clip will be imported into iMovie, combined with 01:20 HD 1080 additional images (from goanimate.com) and then posted on YouTube?

    Or should I edit in iMovie using the large 5 GB after clip effects then compress for YouTube only when finished editing the whole video?

    (I like to keep widescreen with no bar).

    Thank you.

    Your output lossless file is perfectly match the production pipeline. I don't really use iMovie, but I think it would be either would have to cache the film to play back smoothly or there is no functionality of RAM because it is a very limited edition program.

    Lossless means just that, technically without loss. You want to maintain the best quality as possible, until you go to the final output. You might want to try a test rendering by implementing a model of module output using QuickTime JPEG or QuickTime Jpeg 2000 with quality set to 90% or more. These files will be replicated likely in IMovie.

    To match the size of the image simply to match the format on the whole project. As for the rendering of YouTube, and once again, I have not use iMovie, but Adobe Media Encoder did a great job using the default H.264 YouTube Presets. Just make sure that you match your image size and pace of the original project.

    I suggest that spend you some time reading about rendering in the help files. Just of type made in the search box in help after effects in the upper right of EI and follow the links. The third video in the series started get will give you more of the basics of rendering and delivery. Basic workflow

    What is the best way (and possible) to remix a song mixed

    I have a song that is most often improvised, I was told that his cool, however, re-registration is not possible.

    After reading a lot on the mixture, I now hear where the uneducated choice and errors that I made which explains the sound "not as good" that the song is.

    Before I just jump in and try to undo the settings on the tracks (one is DRUMMER) to return to the raw track before effects/eq/compression ect. is is possible to do?  Opens the unfavorable mix, rename it, save it and just go to work and cancel or disable 'things '.

    The basis of the lean mixture comes even to the root where I 'hot' securities, (orange and red)

    You simply see normal effect behavior. Your magnifying glass effect simply compresses peaks as you reach the edge of the RADIUS because it simulates a curved lens where it happen also. You should moderate your settings in order to avoid it or use other effects.

  • Amplitude, creating a cd

    What is the level of amplitude is required when burning a CD or is this set automatically by the software?

    Well, as I tried to say, there are two things going on.

    The standard height is the one - 0dB (FS) easy if I would probably recommend being a bit lower, for example - .1dB just to be sure.  You will not hear the difference, and it ensures that there is no clipping distortion.

    The most complicated thing is the dynamic range - the difference between the highest and lowest of your mix portions.  If you have one or two very strong bits - even if they are only a fraction of a second--assignment to 0dB causes all things being too quiet.  As I said, hearing has several tools that allow you to control this.  During mixing, it is quite common to use an effect called compression on individual tracks or the final product.  This lets you selectively reduce the peaks at a level predetermined, then pushed to the desired level.  From your description, it looks like a dynamic range can be more a problem than the absolute maximum.  Compression takes a bit to learn to make any adjustments if... If you want a good basic description of how it works, take a look at the dynamic - processors technologies & Applications

    Another tool which is useful on a final mix (but takes a bit of care) is effects/Amplitude and Compression/hard limiter.

    On this point, you can set the maximum amplitude you want - say - 0.1DB.  Then the following slider is the input gain.  Take a look at the waveform for mixing and note where most of the lie "average peaks."  Let's say that they are around of - 8dB (FS).  Set the Gain to + 8 and these settings will ensure that nothing beyond of-0.1, but will stimulate everything upward on your CD.  Note that these are the only examples... you will have to decide in the ear (and the eye on the waveform) what are the settings that suit you.

    I hope this helps.

  • Headers of expiry for APEX listener?

    I just started with Chapter 1 of [Expert Oracle Application Express | http://www.apress.com/9781430235125].
    He John Edward Scott showed the importance and effects of compression and Expires Headers. In particular how to configure in OSH. John shows also the two functions are not available in EPG mode.
    Subsequently, it describes how to set the manual compression. But no words if expiration headers can be enabled or not.
    -----
    Can someone tell me if expiration headers can be enabled for APEX listener?
    There is no real need behind this issue, just out of curiosity.

    Hello Martin,

    I don't think you can do this with the APEX listener in stand-alone mode. If you deploy it in a JEE container "full share", you can add a filter to set this header, but all I know he is not a party of the default options of the auditor of the APEX (yet). At least, it is not documented.

  • Apply 1 FX to several tracks?

    Is it possible to apply FX to several tracks at once? I have 15 clips I want to compress, but so far I have to apply the same FX for each of them individually. Thank you

    You could either apply the effect of compression to the master output and send mixed titles or assign channels to a Bus where you place the compressor. Otherwise Yes you must apply individually. Because each track will have different audio in any case you would need to adjust compressor settings separately anyway.

  • Someone knows it please do that-CS4

    Well, I have many clips of dialogue in a project PP. Calendar I can dynamic link between them in Soundbooth, but only individually, as far as I know. It's tedious. All I want to do is apply an effect, the effect of Compression of Soundbooth which seems greater than the of the PP. MultibandCompressor effect Pp, we can select many clips and apply effects to them all at once, but please, someone tell me I can't do each item one at a time to use effects in Soundbooth. It has had a way or move multiple items of the timeline into Soundbooth to apply an effect of Soundbooth on a clip and then duplicate the effect on others in PP as a group.

    This will save a ton of time if possible.

    P.S. Just had another idea. Does anyone know of a combination of audio effects of PP that can produce this Compression Soundbooth nice effect, softening?

    Thank you all.

    Paul

    P.P.S. couldn't get all of the answers on the Forum of Soundbooth.

    Paul,

    An option, but not without a few extra steps, would be to export your audio to PCM/WAV. Do not, until all cuts were made. Take SB in the output file and apply to all effects. Import this file and place it on another track audio free. Either turn OFF / Mute the original Audio track, or remove these Clips.

    Because it is really not a physical file created, when you titles point Audio to a mixer track, I don't think it would help. Now, this would allow you to add an Audio of PrPro effect on this track, assign all of this, but it does not help the need to use an effect of SB.

    Good luck

  • Adobe Audition singing remove compressed effect?

    Hello

    I use Adobe Audition CS6 and I try to use the Vocal effect remove, but I hear still vaguely singing and compressed drum sound. In addition, the voices are more soft and delayed sometimes.

    Is there a way to delete the song still further and make the less compressed sound of drums and singing not delayed?

    Thank you

    -Sam

    You can experiment with the settings in the center channel Extractor, but it is unlikely that you will get much better.

    Remove song depends on how the original mix has been exhausted and the differences in phase, that it is.  If your mix had the voice, because the only thing Pan centrally with everything panned biased then you can get an almost perfect result.  However, this type of pan is rare and something else Central pan will also be affected while things like stereo reverb on voice will not be eliminated.

    The center channel Extractor has some nifty tools to get the best that you can come out of this, but it is rare to get perfect results.   The usual analogy is that you try to unbake a cake and it is very difficult to meet uninterrupted with pure flour and eggs.

  • Export PDF - real or Effective compression?

    Hello

    When I create a PDF Export Preset under compression I can put the PPI downlsampling for images or during a certain PPIS such Bicubic Downsamling at 300 pixels per inch for images above 450 pixels per inch.

    When I place an image in a document, I see the real image PPI and if I resize it or resize I see an effective PPI.

    My question is, when I put the values of compression the exporter use actual PPI of the image or the effective PPI once I placed it and it size I want?

    Tony

    If downsize based on the effective resolution because that is all that matters in the PDF file.

  • Effect of multiband compression does not work in Adobe Premiere Pro 9.1 update

    Updated PP CC 9.1 and Multiband Compressor effects are no longer active. Attempted to introduce a new application and the effect does not apply to audio clips.

    Hey Rodney,

    What are the details of the correct file, and given that you will not experience this problem with other effects, I wonder if there is an installation problem. You have another system, you can try the project, even without the media? If it opens here, maybe reinstall first on the system where the effect is reported as missing can solve the problem. Let us know your results.

  • Compression of PNG for After Effects sequence.

    I created a second animation 2.5 a fingerprint that will be used for iOS touch ID for an application. With a rate of 24, I've got 62 PNGs in my sequence, how never their 42KO file size ranges - 100 KB. I need to get the size of the files up to 1 k - 5 k. Color max in each PNG is 3 and I need to make as RGB + alpha for the transparent background. The big of the sequence of the image are 390px X 520px. I played with the settings in the render queue and can't seem to find something that allows you to compress the size of the files without harming the quality of the image. Does anyone know a good way to maintain the quality of my PNG 62 piece sequence while reducing their size to 1-5 KB a piece?

    I thought maybe use bridge to introduce the sequence in Photoshop and equal to 1. an action to save the PNG using "save for web" feature or 2 sequence. use of video rendering full export on the sequence. Any ideas or suggestions?

    I would like to use Photoshop. Usually, he does a better job at this kind of thing.

  • Problem by disabling effects in FCP

    Everyone knows about this problem?

    If so did you solve it?

    The problem is that if I need to put effects on the first clip in a series of films of the FCP automatically adds these effects to each single section of each element in the rest of the film series.

    I can turn these, either in the video animation Inspector panel, by unchecking each individual box for each section of the film on each clip. But when FCP is off in the night, he reverts the effects again.

    Another point, it is not just to add effects such as a checked Visual problem, because the clips appear as requiring rendering and will be compressed as a much larger file if I miss one of the boxes to uncheck.

    Also, a lot of these movie files take much longer to compress when this problem occurs, so I suspect that FCP is treat them as larger files, with effects on them, even when they are turned off.

    I tried trashing preference files, but that has not solved the problem

    Maybe post a screenshot showing your problem will help you.

    I don't know what you mean by "a series of films. Adding an effect to any clip does not affect any other element, so there's probably something escapes me.

    Maybe you add an effect to a clip made up? If so, then add it to individual clips inside the enclosure and not the camp itself. By I'm just guessing.

    Please specify exactly what you're doing, if possible with screenshots.
