Re: Breakthrough!! Changing presets on AAX plugs.
Thanks Kevin I thought as much.

Re: Beginner questions.
So Katie, I do think I remember your introduction about a week ago. I use Sonar the majority of the time, but I picked up a Pro Tools set up for my recording studio because I thought I would have more pro tool spicific clients, but it didn't turn out that way. Many just want their stuff recorded no matter the set up as long as you know what you are doing. So now I have both PT and Sonar. I am much quicker with Sonar and find it to be more flexable than Pro Tools and a little easier to learn, the thing is though, with PT on the Mac you are for the most part getting a recording system that goes hand and glove with the Mac platform, and whether people like it or not, Pro Tools is industry standard. With a PC you have so many 3rd party programmer variables that it can become dawnting to get a good set up that performs well. I would say this as you get back into the music, most people end up getting the Pro Tools bug so if your at the gate and wondering where to start then you might be better off just jumping into Pro Tools so your not like many who start off in Sonar always wondering if they should start learning pro tools.

Re: Beginner questions.
hello all my name is byron. i am a bran new blind pro tools user. i have been taking Kevin reeves's getting started with pro tools from an accessibility point of view. training class via skype. if you are just starting with a mac computer, i would really suggest that you get good with voice over first, than jump in with pro tools. the reason i say that is because so many functions in pro tools are related to the mac. that is in a great way. these two things go hand and hand, when everything is going right,,, lol i have been engineering for about 15 years. i started with analog as a low vision person. i moved in to the digital world 2 years after my start. the great thing about a blind person using pro tools is, it provides a closer to even playing field for us in relationship to the rest of the music biz. pro tools, voice over, and any other DAWS , or screen readers that you choose to use,will not take long to learn, if you are really pationnet about it. as well as this list is an awesome resource for us.

Re: Beginner questions.
I'v had it about a year now. I used it for about 2 months then I went back to Sonar and then in the last two weeks I've been reviewing Pro Tools again. Do you have any equipment now?

Re: Using Voxengo plugins
I have used voxengo stuff back in my sonar days. They didn't have mac version for most the ones i used and i didn't know how accessible a VST to RTAS wrapper would be to be able to use them in PT so never explored them on the mac. Worked well enoguh with track inspector in sonar though. On Jan 31, 2013, at 6:26 PM, Poppa Bear wrote: Is anybody able to use the voxengo plugin packs?
