If you have the MCU and the Focusrite peace, you have enough to get up and 
running I'm thinking. From there, alot of your choices are going to be bassed 
on preamp, and converter taist.

  ok. Here is the deal. I am upgrading my studio set up. 
  I have the mackie m c u pro control surface. I have a professional 
studio, I do all sorts of recording, including some full band recording. So I 
need a lot of i o. and lots of mic prees.


  I have been thinking about the motu 869 mk 3 audio interface. It looks 
good, as it has 8 mic line press, and heaps of other things including an 
optical in and out. I have a focus right octopree, that I will run out of the 
optical to give me more inputs. But i don't know if this motu interface works 
with voice over on a mac. I like the motu because it also has gain nobs on each 
channel, and the gain control is not software controlled. How ever i've never 
seen one. Just read about them. I'm not sold on it, and i'm quite interested in 
looking at anything that will accomplish this task and meet my recording needs. 
But i'm a bit stuck as to just what is accessible. I don't want to fork out 
money, and find i can't access at least the basics. 


  From what i can gather, the divi 002 and divi 003 do not exhist anymore. 
So i can't buy one. Which is a bugger, cause they sound like a good option. Any 
thoughts welcome.

Hi caneran. I am actually considering the motu 869. hybrid mk iii From what i  
can gather it's basically the same as the 828  with a few extras. Just 
wondering about your thoughts on this interface. I am a new voice over user on 
the mac, and have used  windows and jaws for years in the studio.
 are  there any issues with accessibility using this card. Can we get around 
the hardware ok. I hav heard from gord that is easy to go in to parameters that 
we don't want, and upset some of our settings. What are your thoughts on this.
The other big things i need to know are. 
Does  voice over interact with the motu well on the mac.  and is it good for 
jaws on a pc.
Sounds like the motu will meet my needs, subject to accessibility. the specks 
look good. Guess the only very minor concern i had when looking at the specks 
was that it only has 53 d.b. of gain on the press. But think i can deal with 
this, and from what you've said, the head room is good.

 I like the fact that there are 8 good mic press in this interface, and gain 
nobs. A lot of other cards i've looked at seem to have gain control as part of 
there software, and i was not sure if i could  get around this. 
i'm interested in purchasing the motu, unless you feel there are issues   i 
should be aware of.
Also if you feel i should be considering something other than the motu i'd be 
interested in your thoughts.
 nothing set in concrete here.
Thanks in advance

 Hi Steve,
  
 Welcome to the list. I can't comment on the comparison to sonar as I've 
 never used it. I've used Pro Tools since around 2001 after switching from 
 an analog console and multitrack tape machine. I won't sugarcoat it: you 
 have a steep learning curve in front of you. You'll need to understand 
 VoiceOver like the back of your hand as well as have a good grasp of the OS 
 and how it works. Aside from that, Pro Tools is undoubtedly a complex 
 program but so is Sonar and you learned that over time so, most 
 importantly, you'll have to plan to spend a bunch of time learning it if 
 you decide to go down this path.
  
 Cheers,
  
 Slau

 Hi. My name is Steve Sparrow. I have just joined the list here. I am very 
 seriously considering working with pro tools. I am currently a sonar user 
 running sonar 8.5 with jaws. I am now considering pro tools, mainly because 
 as we know the current sonar is no longer as accessable as it was. I have 
 not bought a mac yet, but I think I'm getting very close to doing so. I 
 know a little about voice over, and would be happy to put the time in to 
 learning it. But I have never used pro tools and no

Hello, not sure if it works in sonar, but I have used it in reaper under 
windows with success. I have tracked entire albums with this unit and the sound 
quality couple with ProTools comes out very nicely

 Ok. Thanks for this mat. I have heard good things about the scarlet. Think 
 i’ll just go and check this out. 
 Do you know if it works with windows and jaws, running sonar. 
 I am just getting in to the mac, only had one for a couple of weeks. I will 
 more than likely be running sonar 8.5.3 for at least a few months yet. But 
 tools is ware i’m heading i think.
 Focus right do some nice stuff. 
 Thanks again.

 Good morning, I personally use the scarlet 18 I 20, fromfocusrite is pretty 
 much the sapphire 40. One major advantage is you don't really need to use 
 the Scarlet makes control. Once installed I simply just use this in 
 ProTools. Very decent sounding unit for the price point! I'm very impressed 
 with it

 heard great things about there plugging. I know ford and others on this

 As i said, i’m happy to consider all options. I’d also settle for less mic

 Well Steve, I would think about the Digi 002, 003 or avid artust series. 
 The Digi 002 will be the cheepist, but if you need good built in preamps, 
 it is the bottom of the line more or less. Also, the 002 can work with 
 Protools 11, but may not carry over to any versions after 11, I have a 002 
 and a 003 as well as the onyx 1620I. Are you going to use outboard pres or 
 converters? Are you going to be recording professionally for clients, or 
 for more personal stuff? These answers will make a difference. If you were 
 recording for your self, you could probably get away with some of the UA 
 apollo stuff and have some decent converters, pres and affects/plugs, but 
 if you will have larger sessions where you would record multable sources 
 at once then a control surface would be the way to go IMO.

 Hey Poppa bear. I was wondering if you could tell me what audio 
 interface-soundcard you run with pro tools. I’m interested to know what 
 you rrun , as I’m about to upgrade, and need more advice on choosing 
 something, that will take care of all my audio needs, and is accessable.
 I’ve bought a mac book pro, and am learning voice over, and I love it.
 Hoping to start investigating tools in a couple of months

 Hello Steve, this is Poppa Bear from the midi list, glad you made it over 
 here, Chris Smart is over here now and a couple others as well. Slau gave 
 you a good solad bottem line answer. After almost two years with PT, I 
 can't see myself going back to Sonar for recording/engineering. I can't 
 speak on the music production side as much because I am mainly running PT 
 to record, mix and master my clients now.

ok. This is very good to know. I will research this a bit more.

Out of interest, how did you
 find reaper. How does it compare to pro tools for you. I have not really 
played with either yet. Had a little play with reaper, and i reckon i could get 
it sussed with a bit of work. Have not seen pro tools at all yet. But i'm about 
to get the pod casts from apple vis.

Oxford plugins and pt 11

2014-04-12 Thread ilmorsodizenone
Hi, i can't change the Oxford Sonnox plugins parameters 
 value correctly  in pt 11 when voice over is active, i  press(vo)  arrows 
up-down-right-left, and i only can't move the value in a very small range, 
in example from 0.0db to 0.1db, or I can only go ahed but i can't go back. 
Do i need to use different commands or do i need to connect an external 
device? Is  002 a god one  in case of? And how can i access the dynamic 
gain reduction indicator?T Thanks. Nico
