RE: authorizing PT9

And you'll need the upgrade code from the card in the PT9 box. Eyeballs 
required.

The entire process of upgrading Pro Tools plus plug ins for 9 was not high on 
my list of pleasant customer experiences.

I found it. It's http://www.avid.com/activation

Unfortunately for me, the ILok key is registered to the school. So I have to 
wait till someone puts in the password.

Hey Herman

You need to go to avid's website, the correct url is written on the box, and 
put in the code.  It will ask you for your ilok username.  Once you've done 
that go over to ilok.comhttp://ilok.com/ and you should see that you have a 
authorization waiting for you.  You can then transfer that authorization to 
your ilok and after installing the software you will be up and running.

 Any tips on authorizing PT9?
 I have the ILok that was used for PT8 connected to the Mac. I can't figure 
 out what I am suppose to click on in order to put in the key that was written 
 on the DVD cover.

 Hi Brian,
 
 From what I understand, Apple removed that functionality in the newer Mac 
 books and Mac Book Pros. I'm still double-checking on that. Regarding the 
 Blue Tooth keyboards, they're not extended keyboards. They're simply a 
 means of accessing the keyboard away from the lap top or cPU. There 
 apparently was an older version of the Apple Blue Tooth keyboard which was 
 extended. You might still be able to find it somewhere—I'm not sure.

 Chuck, great stuff, thanks very much for sharing.
 
 One question I do have is for those working on a laptop keyboard, is there 
 anyway to bring up some sort of num pad that anyone knows of. I remember I 
 had a PC laptop in the past that could activate a num pad on the JKLUIO 
 and 7 8 and 9  keys. Can this be achieved on the mac book pro's? If not, 
 how do external keyboards play with the laptop and does anyone have 
 recommendations. A wireless blue tuth keyboard would be fantastic of 
 course for many reasons.
 
 Cheers,
 Brian.

 Subject: Pro Tools Hot spot update
 
 Hi Listers,
 I just wanted to give a brief Hot spot update..
 To make things easier  with hot spots set up the num pad to watch hot 
 spots using num pad # 1 to watch the # 1 hot spot and so-forth..
 When your in a plugin Waves Rcomp in this case find the threshold and 
 other important controls you want to find out what your controller is 
 mapped to..
 After you set your hot spots with VO shift # 19 just hit the 
 corresponding num pad number for that hot spot and when you touch the 
 correct fader or switch VoiceOver announces any change made to that 
 value..
 For instance Threshold minus 6 or what ever you change it to..
 If you watch several parameters at once VoiceOver will announce the 
 change of that value and that it was the threshold if that is the one  
 you moved a control for..
 Very cool!!
 In a multi track session using full drum kit just set your hot spots  the 
 way you have your drum track layout and for me I hit num pad  number 1 
 for my kick and voiceover announces watching hot spot 1 and  says the 
 level as it changes, When you want to look at another track  level hit it 
 again and VoiceOver announces no longer watching hot  spot 1
 in This way I was monitoring several tracks at once,
 Including watching the master fader output with just the num pad..
 If we could name the individual track meter when you would monitor the 
 track it might say,  Kick minus 2.5 or what ever when you jump back  
 and forth VoiceOver would announce the track name and its changed  level..
 ..
 Ya all give it a try!!
 I think we need a thorough tutorial on hot spots! The VoiceOver help  did 
 not seem to go in to enough depth for me..
 Talk soon
