Re: Pro tools 11 crashes on quit
Hi, I agree totally. I meant if they say to click on the blue button that means nothing to me but if they can tell me what it is called that would be better. Are they good at explaining things where as I know voiceover I should be able to follow what they are saying?

Re: Pro tools 11 crashes on quit
I don't think you'd ever get an instruction like click on the blue button. You might be told click on a pop-up menu that displays a word like waveform where, under Pro Tools 10, that control says track display, pop-up button but that's only what VoiceOver reads. In actuality, what's written there is the type of parameter being displayed like waveform, volume, pan, mute, etc. In other words, what's being displayed in the timeline. In Pro Tools 11, this has been fixed so VoiceOver reads the name of the parameter being displayed. No tech support person will ever know that and you shouldn't expect them to. What you should know, however, is when tech support asks you whether your timeline is showing waveforms or volume curves, you should be able to understand what they're asking you and how to determine what your timeline is showing. For a novice who knows nothing about Pro tools, a tech support person might have to resort to the lowest common denominator instructions like you see that little round icon right at the top? rather than saying, click on the first insert. The more you know about the Program you're using, the more highly the tech support person will regard your inquiry. Also, they're not there to teach people Pro Tools. Their role is to help troubleshoot and solve issues having to do with the application rather than auxiliary access to their product. They're not going to help a person figure out how to click on a radio button with Dragon Naturally speaking. They won't help you with Voiceover.

CD burner?
Does anybody on the list use CD burning programs outside of Itunes that are accessible on the Mac? I have tried to infasize to my clients that they should be trying to bring thumb drives, but so many still don't. I end up shuffling back and forth between my PC and the mac to burn CD's. Does anybody have suggestions on how to make burning CD's easier than I seem to find on Itunes?

Why not just burn discs right from the Finder? Throw the stuff in a folder, right-click and choose burn. Any reason why that won't work for your needs?

Re: CD burner?
Hi Poppa I use WaveBurner which shipped with logic pro. Just about every aspect of WaveBurner is very easy to use. You can insert mastering plugs if you want.

Re: CD burner?
Ah, I see. Yes, it is pretty straight-forward once you try it. There are a few utilities in the App Store for burning discs but I haven't tried any. There was an old freeware program simply called Burn which works well if you can find it. Let me know if you're interested and I can send you a link. Otherwise, iTunes does work well for basic burns although you have to import the songs in order to generate the disc and that does end up being more steps than necessary, not to mention bloating one's library. There used to be a CD mastering program from Apple called WaveBurner but it's no longer available. Hopefully, Apple will eventually re-release it but don't hold your breath. In the mean time, yeah, just burn from the Finder. Slau On Feb 17, 2014, at 9:13 PM, Poppa Bear heavens4r...@gmail.com wrote: I am just not that slick on the Mack I guess.

Re: CD burner?
this is new to me, the Finder lets you burn audio disks? or does the finder just burned the wave datafiles to the disk? And if so, does a standard CD player read way files as audio encoded PCM files?
