Re: Key command to show tracks with data?
Ah, cheers for that. The track name usually gives an indication of the existance, and I work so much with them, I usually work on the assumption that if its got a funny name, there's audio there somewhere lol.

One thing to consider is that, if there are underlying playlists with data, the topmost playlist might not actually contain anything and one would still get that dialog. In other words, there's an exception to be aware of in this case. barring the playlist variable, deleting the track would most certainly bring up the dialog warning about active regions.

If it's got stuff on it, it'll ask you to confirm. I suspect it's undoable if not, but I'm not sure.

You see in Sonar, I may start off with 24 tracks and get lazey and not name them as I go along, but there is an alert as you move to any track that says, Has Data or No Data. I just have to be more aware of what tracks I have used and not be lazy when it comes to naming them.

Hi Nate, Since a sighted user would simply look at the waveform display in the Edit window, there's no command in Pro Tools for such a thing. Here's what you can do to verify whether there's something in an audio track and I'd consider these steps increasing in verification: 1. For a track that is not part of a group, simply solo the track while the transport is engaged. That's, of course, the simplest and most straight-forward way. 2. Go to the beginning of the session and, with the track selected, press the Tab key. check the start field or Main Counter display. If it reads anything other than bar 1, beat 1 or 0 seconds, that means something resides in the track. To verify whether the clip is at the beginning of the session or further in, go to the start of the session and press Control-Shift-Tab and look at the Length field. If it reads anything other than 0, that means there's a clip which begins right at the start of the session. If it reads zero, the first clip begins at some point after 0. Press Return to go to the beginning of the session and then press Control-Tab. This will move to and select the first clip in the timeline. Now you can take a look to see where the clip resides by reading the counter display. Hope that helps, Slau On Jan 26, 2013, at 3:26 PM, Poppa Bear wrote: Is there a VO or PT command key stroke to show if a track or tracks have any data?

Re: Starting with Pro Tools
Yes it can work, but versions in 9 are reported to have more accessibility than 10. You may not run into any accessibility issues depending on what you are doing, I don't know.

Re: Good control surfaces
Hello, Depending on budget, a seperate control surface and interface would probably be the way to go. M-Audio did the Project mix which doubles as both if memory serves correct, and i believe those has motorized faders. However word on the street the mic pre's on that unit weren't anything special, not to say they make bad recordings though. Also I am currently running with an Allen Heath Zed R16. It's a mixer that can also serve as an audio interface and has some control surface funtionality. However this model does not have motorized faders. that being said if you are using it as a control surface, to compramise for lack of motorized faders, the parameter you are attempting to change will not change till the fader is moved to the point where that particular parameter is set and then past it. Love it cuz its lots of knobs and buttons, like a real mixer, no control pannel to do routing through. tons of inputs and allows you to use it's eq's as inserts. The only major downside is as Pro TOols doesn't support standard midi learn and requires a control surface with HUI support, and the Zed R16 not having built in support for HUI, you will have to use a midi to HUI translator app to pass messeages in to PT to get it controlling it.
