I agree with Slau. Wouldn't that only increase floor noise that you may not 
wanna introduce into the recording?

 Hi all:
 
 I have a very strange issue when Recording, In fact this is not new.
 When i need to take a test mike from a singer, before starting to sing, I 
 am using the P to see the beak level, from what i know that i must have my 
 beak like Minus 20 or something.
 is it right to Messure the Beak value or i must see the Level or what?
 
 my solo beak always be minus 30 or less, so, i think this is too low. and 
 my Sound card gain for this track is above half. so, is it regular? or is 
 there a place which i can Raise the Input level for Protools?
 Thanks

Just tried going there, and while I don't get a 404, I don't get 
anything else. Is that site gone? Too bad if it is, as I'm finding 
things from it on YouTube that I don't have, such as the recordings on 
adding virtual instruments. I purchased what is probably the starter 
package at least two PT versions ago, and while some of what I now have 
is probably out of date, I am still finding much of its content useful, 
so I'd like to pick up the parts I dont have. Here's hoping this is just 
a DNS or some other Internet-related kind of error.

Re: Help with Burn

No no no. Go to the top of the screen in the app, and you'll see a toolbar. 
Interact with that tool bar with VO+Shift+down arrow. then, VO+right arrow 
through your toolbar, and you should see the option to change to an audio CD.

  Hi All,


  Slau recommended the app just called 'Burn' and it certainly looks very 
  accessible, but by default it burns data CD's and I just can't figure 
  out how to set it to burn an audio CD. I feel as though I should be 
  able to work this out, but the documentation doesn't make it clear and 
  I've dug around in options and menus and just can't see how it's done.

Re: system requirements for Pro Tools 12.8.x

I just asked about this in the What'sapp group the other day, and Slau told me 
that at this time, Avid doesn't yet officially certify ProTools to work with 
High Sierra.

Keep in mind, that doesn't necessarily mean it won't work. It just means it's 
not officially supported. At this time, I personally am not updating the studio 
machine to 10.13. It's still on Sierra.

Now that said, all my other mac systems not running ProTools are definitely! 
updated to High Sierra. LOL!

That's probably it.

I've set my mac to install from all sources, so that's probably why  it 
installed.

It's perfectly legit.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/simplyburns/

Another option would be Express Burn from NCH Software:

www.nch.com.au/burn/index.html

The NCH package is more up to date, so you may have better luck with it. And 
yes, before you ask, it's totally accessible.

  Consider this a bit of a public service announcement for VoiceOver users who

that have conflicted with VoiceOver. They haven't been problems, per se, as 
there were only a couple. Without getting into details, there are a number of 
keyboard shortcuts coming up in future versions of Pro Tools that will add to 
the conflicts. Yes, it's possible to pass through the key commands but the 
nature of the upcoming shortcuts is such that one might want to repeatedly use 
these shortcuts and passing through would be an exercise in inefficiency.

  It is for this reason especially that I'd highly recommend switching the 
VoiceOver keys from Control+Option to CapsLock if you haven't already done so. 
I know that quite a number of users have their settings set to use both and 
some have made the full transition. I made it a point this year to make the 
jump and I'm glad I did. I made the initial transition before knowing that the 
upcoming Pro Tools shortcuts would conflict so I'm happy to have made the 
change early on. I'd encourage users to get used to the alternative because 
you'll be glad you made the switch when the time comes.

  There is the one aspect of the modifier only being on the left side of the 
qwerty keyboard that makes left side combinations somewhat trickier at first 
but you really do get used to it quickly. When I switched over, the first day 
was difficult and the second day was much easier. Within 3 days it became easy 
and, at this point, I'd never go back.

  I know a bunch of you have already done this so I'm just giving a heads up to 
those who haven't yet made the adjustment. Getting used to it now, before the 
new shortcuts are implemented, will make it easier later on.

  Hello list,

  Here at my work, a training center, management and I are talking about trying 
to bring in an engineering training program. We are thinking of ways to make it 
official in order for VR counselors to support sending clients to the program. 
I am wondering if anyone has gone through the Avid certification program and if 
so, was it online or in person, what was the price and the length of time that 
it took to complete.

  Any thoughts on this will be appreciated.

  Well, it's accessible within Komplete Kontrol but you can also just load it

  I'm going to describe the steps to identify beats. I'm not going to go 
through describing all of the things you should already know about selecting 
tracks, linking timeline and edit selections, positioning the insertion point, 
etc.

  You're going to be scrubbing or moving the insertion point to positions 
within the song and identifying those positions as specific bars. It'll be the 
first beat of each bar. From here on in, when I say "scrub or move insertion 
point to" a position in the timeline, it doesn't matter how you get there, as 
long as the insertion point is located at the beginning of each bar of music. 
This has nothing to do with bar numbers. You move to the points in the song 
based on your ears and then you specify the number based on math. It sounds 
more complicated than it is but only because it's more complicated to put it 
into words than to actually do it.

  OK, here we go:

  Put the insertion point at the beginning of the song. Press command+i to 
identify the beat. The Identify Beat dialog will open. Don't navigate the 
dialog because there's no need. Simply type the number 1 and press Return. 
You've now defined the first point in the song as bar 1, beat 1. Now get the 
insertion point to the beginning of bar 2. Press Command+i again and this time 
type 2 and press Return. You've now defined bar 2, beat 1.

  Continue this process. You don't necessarily have to do each and every bar. 
You can do every 4 bars or even 8 bars if you want. Thing is, if there are 
fluctuations in tempo, doing every bar is ultimately better because it'll 
follow tempo changes more closely. For stuff that is very steady, you can 
easily identify beats every 8 bars and be fine.

  Let me stress that you have to be precise with the bar numbers. If you 
inadvertently identify bar 27 then move 4 bars later but, instead of typing 31, 
you type 32, your bar numbers will be off and, therefore, your click will speed 
up inappropriately. You have to be absolutely exact in what you type.
  That should get you going.
  Slau

I'd do it in Reaper, but I'm not totally advanced enough with it to know what

Also, how would I quantize things? I can't, as it's audio, not midi.

  I imagine once he got the tempo following along to the subtle tempo changes 
if the right elastic audio algorithm is selected and then all the tempo changes 
selected and changed to the same value the audio should playback at the set 
tempo then.  Just going by what I remember from using ProTOols.  The really 
time  consuming way to do this would be to select every actual measure of the 
song, split it to its own clip, and quantize it to whatever tempo you want.  I 
have done something like what Chris is attempting to do in logic and these days 
I am a little bit more familiar with Flex time than ProTools elastic audio 
implementation so this was just suggestions based off how I have worked around  
different tools not being accessible in different DAWs over the years.

OK, thank you for that confirmation. That's kind of what I suspected all along. 
Someone had suggested to me that they thought it could be done, then I could 
carry those presets over to Reaper on my Windows machine, and provided I had 
the same plugin as a VST, I could then simply import them into Reaper. I was 
like, um... Me thinks not! Figured I'd ask though just out of the one

  FXP and FXB are not the format that Pro Tools uses so, just as you cannot 
save a preset in AAX format in Logic, for example, you cannot save an FXP 
format in Pro Tools.

  The only way to have a session default to a tempo other than 120 bpm is 
to create a template with the session tempo set to whatever you want. All of 
your sessions created from that template will be at that tempo. Regarding the 
previous question, if you set the tempo without the conductor enabled, when you 
enable the conductor (which you'll need to follow tempo changes), the tempo 
will probably revert to 120 bpm. You'll probably need to create a tempo event 
at the beginning of the session and another tempo change where you want it to 
go to the new tempo.

  If you need a sudden tempo change, create a tempo event at the point 
you want the tempo to change. Make sure you have a tempo event at the top of 
the song and then a tempo event at whatever bar you need. In both cases, use 
the "Constant" tempo change. In the dialog, click on the tempo, enter a value,

What happens here is once that bar hits, which is at bar 77, and

want the tempo to constantly drop from the constant 84BPM down to 64BPM.

Yes, I do have a click track in this song, and I have ProTools set

What happens here is once that bar hits, which is at bar 77, and 
carries to the end of the song at bar 78, so basically, those last two bars of 
the song, there is a retard. So, normally, again, the song is at 84BPM. What I 
want is starting at bar 77, and finnishing the whole rest of the session, I 
want the tempo to constantly drop from the constant 84BPM down to 64BPM.

Yes, I do have a click track in this song, and I have ProTools set to 
give me a 2 bar count in. Note that this count in is not actually recorded into 
the song. I'm using numpad 7 to turn on the click track, then numpad 8 to 
toggle on the count in.

Any help with this would be appreciated. In the long run, I'm gonna 
have to teach my student how to do this. So, better I learn now, before we get 
to that point, that way, I'm prepared.

Chris.

Re: It's paramount! that I learn this task: Tempoing

2017-08-08 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Mr. Smart, don't be so difficult!

1. NO, that isn't what I'm asking. I don't want to do it gradually. Did I imply 
that by saying a retard? I thought a retard could be gradual, but not 
necessarily. I need it to directly go straight from 84 to 64. I don't need a 
gradual declination. Would that not be considered then a retard? If not, then 
sorry. Maybe someone with a little theory background can set me straight on 
that term. I'm willing to learn.

2. Yes, Chris, paramount. I have a click track in this recording. If I don't 
change the tempo, then it'll get out of sync, so yes. It's paramount.

You know, for a professional, dude, you could be a bit more respectful with 
your words, thank you very much, sir!

If you didn't wanna help, then why did you waist list traffic with unnecessary 
comments! Slau, tell me you agree! I'm sure you do! You're a reasonable enough 
guy, I'd think, or, at least hope.

It's paramount! that I learn this task: Tempoing

2017-08-08 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Guys,

I know this has been discussed before, but I'm seeming to not be able to get 
this to work.

Hopefully, one of you all can tell me step by step the process to make this 
work.

In ProTools, here's what we got going here.

I've got the song She's Not Cryin' Anymore by Billy Ray Cyrus, which I've 
arranged totally by hand from scratch.

For those of you who don't know the structure of this song, it's OK. I'm gonna 
explain, don't worry.

The song is your basic slow country 4/4 signature song which I am doing in the 
key of B mager. Don't ask why not C. That's irrelavent.

Anyway, I'm doing the song with an 84BPM constant tempo. That is...

Up until the very very last tag of the song. The ending where he repeats the 
phrase:

There's a smile upon her face, a new one takes my place, she's not cryin' 
anymore.

On the word any more, on more, specifically, the song ends by going to the root 
chord which of corse is B, then to the 4, which is E, then back down to a 
single held B chord to end the song.

What happens here is once that bar hits, which is at bar 77, and carries to the 
end of the song at bar 78, so basically, those last two bars of the song, there 
is a retard. So, normally, again, the song is at 84BPM. What I want is starting 
at bar 77, and finnishing the whole rest of the session, I want the tempo to 
constantly drop from the constant 84BPM down to 64BPM.

Yes, I do have a click track in this song, and I have ProTools set to give me a 
2 bar count in. Note that this count in is not actually recorded into the song. 
I'm using numpad 7 to turn on the click track, then numpad 8 to toggle on the 
count in.

Any help with this would be appreciated. In the long run, I'm gonna have to 
teach my student how to do this. So, better I learn now, before we get to that 
point, that way, I'm prepared.

Chris.

  Hello,


  While Christopher makes some valid points, all be it in his unique candor, I 
will say if the work around is using screen magnification in the short term, 
Why not just use zoom on the Mac instead of setting up a windows system just 
for this student? There was at one point a zoom text product for the Mac as 
well, not sure if its still available or not though. But yes learning VoiceOver 
will be the best long term solution.

  a.. Firstly, what if the students later in life lose their vision 
entirely. I can't tell you how many times I've seen blind individuals have this 
problem later in life. Now, what good is magnifying the screen going to do with 
Supernova? Though it may be fine now, down the road, if their site deteriorates 
even further, then, you're... well... excuse the language... screwed.
  b.. Some students, may find that after looking at the screen for a long 
period of time in such detail develop neurological headaches, if not migraines 
from straining their eyes for a long time. Again, trust me! It can, and does, 
often happen.
  c.. ProTools on Windows is totally inaccessible, and I doubt it ever will 
be, based on Avid's current mission. This said, in combination with the fact 
that most studios, no, not all, I'll admit, but most, will use ProTools on mac 
systems, what now happens if a student goes into a studio to track/mix/master, 
and all a sudden, are told, you need to mix this yourself with our rig, and we 
use a mac in the control room. Now, you're stuck! Supernova won't run on a mac, 
nor will JAWS, NVDA, or anything. And, even if it did, again, ProTools isn't 
accessible on Windows, so, there went the idea of asking for that accomidation 
be made by the studio staff.

Honestly, I know you probably have no say over who wrote/designs the 
student coriculum, but honestly, I'd take one semester to learn Voiceover. 
Then, take the second semester to then focus on ProTool. I get you may then not 
have enough time to cover ProTools entirely. That's why then you might have to 
break it up into several semesters.

Ultimately though, it's going to be paramount that they learn Voiceover. I 
didn't say they need to know it in and out to the point of being a Voiceover 
champian whiz, but they need to at least know it enough to where they could 
turn off the screen, and use Voiceover to navigate. If their vision is that bad 
as you say, then this needs to be incorporated.

Point blank.

If they had more vision, then that would be different, but...

Chris.

Re: Pro Tools Accessibility for pupils who are severely sight impaired

2017-08-03 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Having not seen a beta version of ProTools, and being what I know about betas, 
you're probably on a nondisclosure agreement, and cannot reveal anything about 
it, which is fair, but, honestly, Paul, I don't mean to be blunt about this, 
but, I feel like they really need to get their Voiceover skills down pat before 
trying to take on a complex DAW like ProTools. We'll definitely help you along 
the way, please don't misinterpret what I'm saying here, as that's indeed what 
we're all here on this list for, but having a lower skill in the assistive tech 
side of it... (in this case, Voiceover,) is going to pose some issues 
inevitably.

  Hi Christopher,


  Thank you for your swift reply. The pupil's skills with VoiceOver are not 
that advanced, which in itself is an issue, and we will be supporting and 
assisting the pupil in developing these this session. 


  Pro Tools is also brand new to the pupil and the licences that we currently 
have are dated versions of Pro Tools. We will be addressing this also.


  Can I ask what you would suggest?


  Kind regards,


  Paul

Re: Asking once again about Meterring

2017-07-27 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
There is absolutely nothing in the signal chain. I looked about 20 times, 
literally! No inserts on the track, no sends, and it's outputting straight to 
the audio interface, not to a bus, or another track, or anything of sort.

  Chris,

  Your friend must have something in the signal chain.
  I just generated a sine wave with 0.5 amplitude on Audacity and exported to a 
wave file.
  I imported into Pro Tools, and it correctly reads -6db.
  I imported the same file to Reaper, and it also reads -6db.
  I imported to Logic, and it reads -6db.
  Audacity, Pro Tools, Logic, Reaper all read exactly at -6db.
  If your curious why -6db, the math is 20*log10(0.5). It's approximately 
-6.02...
  There should be no difference between different DAWs as far as peak meter 
goes.

Here's the situation. I am trying to help an incredibly dear friend of mine 
start up learning audio production, and by the way, no, it's not the friend I 
said who cannot do audio worth a damn. This is someone totally different. LOL! 
This guy actually is very very very open to suggestions!

Anyway, he hasn't done anything at all when it comes to pro grade audio.

One of the things that we now are working on is microphone lead vocal gain 
staging.

What I'm trying to get him to see is that if you record into your DAW too 
hot, you'll start clipping, and even if you don't! clip the  vocal track, leave 
not enough headroom, and in the long run, you'll clip your master fader. He 
gets this concept entirely.

What we did is, he sent me a recording he did in Reaper. He sent me the 
stems.

First, I loaded it up actually in ProTools as it's the DAW I'm most 
familiar with. But, the point is, he sent me the unprocessed raw stems which 
included his vocal that he initially recorded in Reaper.

Here's where things went absolutely awri kurfunkity wacko jacko.

In ProTools, I interacted with the track channel strip that contains his 
vocals. Note that right now, I don't have Flowtools installed. Yes, in the long 
run, this message is ProTools related even though I'm discussing Reaper right 
now. Please please I beg you, stick with me on this!

In this track strip, I navigated one VO+right arrow passed the output 
volume fader for that track, and landed on the peek meter. I have ProTools set 
where the peek meters hold infinent until reset.

On the loudest peek of his vocal, ProTools indicates that he's peeking at 
-1DB. So, he's really really really hot! Really no headroom at all. And trust 
me. I can hear it too! It sounds God aweful! Even he! agrees it sounds 
terrible. How to fix this is another issue in and of itself, but here is the 
strange thing that I just! can't! fathom!

I imported these exact same stem wav files that were created in Reaper, 
originally, back into Reaper.

I then had him, using Osara, go into the peek meter watcher settings with 
CTRL+Shift+W. Essentially, we set both combo boxes for first and second track 
to follow current. We checked both boxes to watch the tracks. I set it to hold 
the meter until reset, which I think was the default radio button value anyway.

Finally, when level reaches, I had him set this to minus 12. My reason of 
thinking was, if he can come into the DAW from his interface at around negative 
12DB, that gives plenty of headroom, and we then could use a compressor, or 
other means later in the mixing phase to get that vocal up in the mix.

This is how I was tought to do it with ProTools, or really with any DAW, 
for that mind. Record in low, then later adjust and compensate for the gain

Actually, the level is staying the same on the audio track regardless if I move 
the volume fader up or down. Now obviously, the meter changes accordingly on my 
master fader, but not on the actual audio track itself when playing it back.

  Track fader brings down the volume of the track yes but this is post 
processing. So for example if you use the track fader to bring down the volume 
of a loud file, and take a post fader meter reading it may reflect that the 
level has been lowered. However if you take a pre fader reading you will see 
that the track is still at the previously loud volume. This means that the file 
 will hit any processing put o that track hot and will probably have to 
compensate by turning down the input/output gain in all the plug ins placed on 
that track. If you use Trin/Item Volume/Region Gain to bring the level down to 
a reasonable place first it will hit the plug ins at a reasonable level and you 
probably won’t end up having to play with the plug ins input and output gains 
as much.


  And as it relates to your current Delia If one DAW is taking its readings pre 
fader and the other is taking it post fader and you used the tracks fader to 
bring the volume down then that could explain the vast  differences you are 
experiencing.

Oh, believe me, Karen, I have toldem, but he just keeps insisting that he's 
actually better than anyone's giving him credit. I'm not the first person to 
tell him areas to improve.

I think you guys are right. This guy's just probably not worth my effort any 
further. I'm sorry to say.

Anyway, I appreciate you all's advice, really, I do!

  I see, My hope was to give you an opening like...would you want  this

  Clearly he has no grasp of marketing either smiles.
  Kevin makes a valid point.
  Is there any reason why, if he is not paying you, that you must answer at 
  all?
  Better still, if he is a real friend, why you cannot say,
  Look You are my friend and I want to help you as a friend.  I like you

  He honestly might not be able to hear what you can, if he has trouble with

  Still, if he is serious about his craft, then he  must be prepared to grow.

  I’d say point out the things you did here, without being negative or saying 
you suck. Something like your vocals are off key and that they should consider 
collaborating with vocalist. You can also explain that to your more experienced 
ears it sounds over compressed and muddy or etc. No need to get into the 
technical details you got into in your email as it sounds like he isn’t to a 
experience level with productions  where that would mean much to him yet. The 
thing is if they are doing this for fun and to keep themselves busy, then its 
up to them if they work on getting better or not. If they wants to get to a 
point where they wants to do this professionally however, then they’d need to  
consider more experienced opinions at some point.

How would you all as full fledged professionals handle this?

2017-07-24 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
OK, so I have a friend who sent me a track he had recorded. Granted, he did it 
in Reaper not PT, but that's kind of not exactly the point.

He wanted my opinion on his mix, etc.

First off, the guy is almost 2 whole steps off key. I know, as I know very well 
the song that he recorded. This isn't him using improvization. It's more truely 
him being off the correct note or anything there close.

Secondly, his vocals clipped horribly. With no processing or anything, the 
meters are showing him at positive 9.3DB.

On his reverb, he ran both the wet, and the dry mix at 100%, so he sounds like 
he's in the grand cannyon. Plus, he's got major major headphone bleedover, so 
bad, I almost can make out each note individually from the karaoke track he 
used.

When he hits the higher notes, he's singing from his throat, I can tell, as 
he's straining badly, and literally almost shouting.

On the compressor, he used a 8/1 with the attack as fast as the compressor plug 
would let him, and the attack as slow as it would. Then, he set the threshold 
at negative 14DB, which obviously means he's squashing the living shit out of 
things! Worse is, he not only did this on his vocal, but he then reduplicated 
it on the master fader as well. Aaa, my aching! ears!

Finally, he turned up all frequencies around 60HZ by about 5 DB.

When I told him this needed a lot of work, being he wanted my honest opinion,

  Hi Jes,

  I've inserted some responses within your questions below.
  > On Jul 23, 2017, at 8:19 AM, Jes  wrote:
  > Why is it better to switch to PT and abandon Reaper?
  It's not necessarily better to switch to Pro Tools and abandon Reaper. You 
should not abandon a platform if you know it well and it is current.

  > Why do so many people in the audio professional world look down ondaws like 
logic, reaper, and insist that ProTools is the best?
  To be fair, there are plenty of people who look down upon Pro Tools. There 
are plenty of snobs all around.

  > What makes ProTools the industry standard, and why is it that you all use 
ProTools?
  There are quite a number of reasons why Pro Tools dominates the market but, 
understand that, when I say "dominates," it's not necessarily by a huge margin 
and it has different market share in different segments. Among broadcast and 
studios, it has a much wider margin than among home studios. It wasn't the 
first workstation but it was the first to be ultra stable and had a dedicated 
user base. Its audio editing capabilities are regarded as the state-of-the-art 
and it's the number one choice for broadcast and post-production. Avid has a 
very large base of developers and customers with whom they interface and that's 
somewhat unique in that other DAW developers don't necessarily maintain those 
types of relationships.

  Regarding blind users, Pro Tools is currently perhaps the most accessible dAW 
overall. With the addition of the open-source Flo Tools, accessibility has 
never been better and it's continually improving. Avid has made a commitment to 
continuing to work on accessibility. Not only are there several blind beta 
testers, Avid has also accommodated several personal visits to their offices 
and labs where hand-on work on accessibility is conducted. No other dAW 
manufacturer can claim that kind of involvement. Yes, there have been 
improvements in accessibility from other DAWs but not on the level we've seen 
with Pro Tools.

  > Why won't reaper or any daw ever replace ProTools?
  I'm not sure that one can ever say that nothing will ever replace Pro Tools. 
All things must come to an end and that might someday happen for Pro Tools. I 
hope it's not for many years to come but it could certainly happen. There are 
no guarantees. I think Pro Tools will continue to be the dominant platform but 
I'm sure it will continue to lose market share over time. It's only natural. 
For now and for the foreseeable future, however, I think it'll continue to be a 
stable platform. Let me just add that, if you're happy with Reaper, use it. 
Don't use Pro Tools because you think others are trying to push you toward it. 
You should only pursue it if that's what you really want. Two of the three 
people who responded to your message aren't Pro Tools users (although steve did 
for some time). They're happy using Logic, Reaper, etc. and there's nothing 
wrong with that, of course. Others on the list would probably say that Pro 
Tools is the best way to go. I happen to think it's the best way to go although 
anyone would agree that other platforms have their advantages and disadvantages 
regarding accessibility. I've been called a Pro Tools snob and I assure you 
that I'm not. I have nothing against any DAW. I only know what works for me and 
I see how others work with other DAWs and I'm fine sticking with Pro Tools 
thank you very much. It's all good.

  Subject: Editing Tutorial


  Good afternoon folks,

  I was wondering if anyone has the editing tutorial that Slau did a few years 
ago.  He used the beatles song Come Together to demonstrate editing concepts in 
pro tools.  If anyone has it, would someone mind posting a dropbox link to it?  
It may benefit others on the list as well.  Thanks so much,
  Brian Howerton

Nick,

I've never actually called them, so I'm not totally sure. I do apologize.

  Hi, I will contact Avid support on this issue.  When contacting support they 
want some type of support code and I know mine is expired.  Is there an email 
address I can write to or a way I can contact a human rather then a recording 
that won't let me get to someone to talk to unless I enter a valid code when I 
call support?  Nick Gawronski

  Rather than putting those installers in the folders you would be better to
  maybe put them somewhere on your own dropbox then post a link to those 
files
  as those take up quite a lot of space.  Or you could contact Avid 
technical
  support who no doubt would sort you out with direct links to the files.

Re: putting the full pro tools 12 installers for the mac along with the avid plugins into the ptaccess dropbox folder for ease of location

2017-06-16 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Wouldn't it technically be illegal to put that installer in the DB folder? I 
mean, I get that you couldn't really do anything with it without the use of an 
ILok asset, but, still, I'd think technically, it wouldn't be within the 
license agreement that this would be acceptable.

Sorry to be an asshole about this, but I'd personally be a little leery about 
doing this. Call me paranoid.

I can put it there if it's not been done already, and Slau permits it, but 
until I get his OK, I won't do so.

Am I still subscribed?

2017-05-09 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
I hope so. I recently posted a few questions about Structure, and heard 
absolutely not a peep from anyone. Further, I've seen absolutely not a single 
post on the list since then.

I hope I've not done something to cause my subscription to be suspended due to 
bad list conduct or the like. I can't imagine what I may have done. I get no 
one may have known about my  questions and therefore didn't write in, but like 
I say, it's not just my Structure thread. I'm seeing that I'm getting no 
messages since then, period, regardless.

I'd appreciate at least someone responding to me and letting me know if my 
message goes through. Perhaps respond on list, yes, but also CC me privately 
that way I can determine over here what's going on, if anything.

My private address is:

clgillan...@gmail.com

Structure, finally, finally! is working, but I have a question.

2017-05-05 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Wieu! What a mess!

I'm not even gonna tell you all my sauga I had with Air Music Tech phone 
support earlier. Just look on the Reaper list, if you wonder, and are 
subscribed.

Anyway, I have a quick question about Structure from, obviously, a ProTools 
standpoint.

So, after having Sweetwater remote into my system, as Air Music tech refused to 
do so, claming they were too busy to help me with remote access, quote unquote, 
there words, not mine, anyway, we found out that some of the custom presets I 
got from ProTools with Speech's website are not working. Most are, now that I 
got sighted help pointing the plugin to the correct directory where factory 
content samples are stored, but anyway, so... things like the presets for the 
Yamaha XS, or there was another for a Korg, but I don't remember the model.

I'd especially love! to get my hands on the Motif XS samples so those custom 
presets will work, and it won't keep nagging me about where those samples are 
on my system. Apparently, the guy at Sweetwater claimed that I don't have them.

So, is that something I have to buy, then manually install/import into 
Structure, or is this something which was created by an en-user? If the ladder, 
then does anyone have those samples, and if so, would they be willing to stick 
them in the PTAccess Dropbox folder for me?

If you do so, please tell me the path under that PTAccess folder to go to to 
find them.

Thanks guys, and sorry for the long message.

Chris.

So far, so good.

2017-05-04 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Just an update:

The installer of my new copy of Structure 2.0.7 seems to have just used the 
standard installer that Apple normally uses for most PKG based installer 
packages.

I've not seen any responses yet, but does anyone know if the process for 
putting in my unlock code will be accessible, or will Mom have to help me out? 
Dear God I hope not, as she's pretty occupied right now.

Also, is it normal that the installer will jump from about 3 percent to 97 
percent on the part where it is running package scripts? I'd presume being this 
baby's about 40 something gigs, that yes, that would be normal.

It's been now sitting for about 10 minutes at that 97 percent progress.

I'm willing to be patient, don't get me wrong, but, wow! Just, wow!

I'll make this really quick: Structure 2 question.

2017-05-04 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Long story short: I just bought Structure 2 as a digital download from 
Sweetwater.

I had no issue whatsoever downloading the DMG's for the setup.

I also know where to get the presets, so I'm fine there.

What I wonder is, will my mom have to do the installer for me, or will that 
part, and also putting in my unlock code be accessible with Voiceover?

It's not a big deal. I know she'll help me do it if needed, but I'm just 
curious. I'm really hoping this won't be hard. I've not heard anyone complain 
on here about it not being accessible to install, and I'd think by now, I would 
have if it wasn't so, so I just wanted to check.

If I'm not mistaken, this is Structure V 2.7.

Chris.

Motif?

2017-04-23 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
I'm not going to quote names, but a friend of mine told me that the Yamaha 
Motif wasn't being made anymore in any of it's generation models.

He/she says now the Tyros is the only thing being designed. Apparently this 
came from Mark Dew, who's been in the field for over 64 years.

I just want some clarification. It's not I don't believe my friend, but I'd 
think I would have heard about this if that was the case.

Could someone clarify?

Just wanted to say thank you immensely!

2017-04-21 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
You guys are a lifesaver! No, I really mean it! If it wasn't for you all, I 
wouldn't be about to go into a session.

I was preparing for a session on a track a client's having me do which is real 
real heavy on piano inthesis. So, I loaded up a blank session in PT, and went 
to insert my first track which was a Ravenscroft UVI workstation plug. To my 
absolute utter horror! I don't know how the fudge this happened, but my presets 
were gone! Like, disappeared! I don't freakin get it! I never ever ever ever 
deleted them. Ever!

I also looked in my Ivory sets, as I thought, well, ok, I really want that 
Ravenscroft piano, but I don't have time now to deal with this. Just, for now, 
pop an Ivory piano. I can go change it later in the mixing process phase when I 
figure out what happened.

So, off to Ivory I go. Well, guess what! Yup? You guessed it disaster strikes! 
No Ivory presets either! So, now, I'm thinking, sh'sh'shitt'tt'tt! What the 
blue flying heck!

I looked on my backup Super Duper drive image, as I thought, surely I can just 
pull 'em from there and copy them back over, gotta love Super Duper! Well, they 
were not there either.

I'm still pulling out my hair trying to figure out how the hell this happened, 
but the point is, I went to the Dropbox folder Slau created, and lo and behold, 
there were my Ivory presets and the UVI Workstation presets which I needed. I 
copied them back over to my system, and boom! All lit back up like a Christmas 
tree.

You guys are amazing! Thank you thank you thank you, Slau for this folder! I'd 
be busted right now if it wasn't for it being around!

Chris.

  The UMC404HD is $99 . 
  Behringer UMC404HD




  4 input combo XLR/1/4 inputs. 
  4 Gain knobs.
  Above each knob is a pair of buttons. 
  Left is instrument/Line (push in for instrument mode)
  Right is Pad Switch.


  Stereo mono button pushed in is mono. Allows you to monitor incoming input 
signals in Mono or stereo.
   . 
  Mix knob is next to Stereo/Mono switch. Fully counter clockwise you only hear 
direct input, Fully clockwise you only hear DAW output. The in-between 
positions blend the input with the DAW Playback. 
  Below that is Main output level.
  Next to Mix knob is Output  a/b button This sets which outputs go to the 
headphone jack. Allows you to monitor whats being routed to Outputs group A 
(1/2) or Output Group b (3/4) on the headphones. 
  Next to that button is the Headphone Volume with the 1/4 headphone jack below 
it 


  Back Panel
  Starting on Side opposite the power and USB connectors.
  Inserts
  1 top 2 bottom
  3 top 4 bottom
  3 and  four next to XLR Main out jacks.
  Main Outs 
  XLR left  is next to inserts and then XLR right. 
  Next to XLR main outs is 1/4 main outs. 
  Top is left.  Bottom is right
  Next is the OutPut A/B pairs. If your DAW Gives you a Stereo out, Output 1/2 
and output 3/4 then you can route to the 3 pairs of outputs all individually. 
  Stereo outs = Main outs 
  1/2 = Output group A
  3/4 =Output group b
  If it only gives you output 1/2 and 3/4 then the same signal is sent to Main 
outs and  output group Outputs group A.
  And B are available on 1/4  or RCA jacks. Output pair A (also will show as 
1/2 in DAW)
  1/4 jack Top is left, bottom 1/4 jack is right. Followed By the RCA outputs 
pair for Output A.
  Next is RCA outputs for Output  pair B then the 1/4 jacks for that pair of 
outputs.
  Next to those are the Phantom power switch. Phantom power is on when pushed 
towards side of the 1/4 jacks. 
  Next to those are Midi in/outs. 
  Midi in next to phantom power then midi out 
  Next to Midi Out is USB followed by power adapter input.

Awesome! Wow, if that's all it is, is 80 bucks, I couldn't do it until next 
month, but I'll hold on to this mail, and come the 3rd, I'll get it.

Do you have a textual button/dial layout description you could send me of where 
all the dials/buttons/jacks are located?

BTW, how many channels is this board?

  That won't work because you're multimix is not a multi track recording 
interface. What it's doing is summing both channels into one. Ditch themixer 
and go get yourself a Behringer UMC 202. It's only 80 bucks on Amazon, and has 
the same microphone preamp's that are on the X 32, which are fantastic.

  Try recording to a stereo track using the input 1/2 option. Then after 
you are done right click on the track and choose the split to two mono tracks 
option. Can’t remember the exact wording but pro tools allows you to split a 
stereo track into two mono tracks

OK, so let me try to explain my situation, and what I'm trying to do.

So, I have ProTools 12, not sure the exact build, I need to look, but 
it is 12. That much, I do! know, and OSX Siera, although I seriously doubt that 
matters.

I'm currently for this project using a Blue Bluebird microphone which 
is directly connected with an XLR cable one end in the bottom of the mike, the 
other end into the mike input 1 on my interface which is an Alesis Multi-Mix 4. 
Then, obviously, the multi-mix 4 is simply just going into the mac via USB.

With the way that this interface works, and being it uses the native 
USB codec OSX drivers, none specific to the board, PT only sees one IO path in 
or out. Therefore, I had no choice but to combine both the in and out via  the 
ProTools agrigate device, then use it as my playback engine. This has posed 
absolutely no problems whatsoever. NO latency, nothing. So far, it's worked 
beautifully this way.

So, I want to explain from two angles what my IO path which is super 
super super easy looks like. IN fact, it's so easy, you're probably not gonna 
believe how easy it is!

For a mono audio track, under the input path popup button, if I go to 
interface sub menu, I have 2 things.

  a.. Main in 1 
  b.. and Main In 2.

If I do the same thing on a stereo audio track, I only have one thing: 
Main in 1/2.

I've not totally yet determined what input 2 is used for. My guess is 
that if I was using a stereo track, 1 would be left, and 2 would be right, but 
since I'm normally with a mike using a mono track, that wouldn't really matter 
as both channels would be unity.

OK. That all said, here is what I'm trying to do.

Normally, when I record with my mike, I set the input on a mono track 
to main 1. I practically never have had a need to use input 2 on a mono track. 
Again, on a stereo track, 1 and 2 are combined, but that's here not rellavent.

So, what I want to do is, I'm trying to make an audio demo which will 
have me  speaking in my mike, but then, I want to take through another channel 
on my interface. Probably channel 2, and plug a patch cable, one end into the 
second input on the multi-mix 4, then the other end to the headphone jack of my 
iPhone. This way, I can patch Voiceover directly into the mixer rather than 
miking it, which would sound God aweful!

If I do this however, and plug that cable into the phone/second input 
channel on the board, I then on the multimix 4 turn up my output volume dial, 
and turn up my trim and get a good signal from the phone, what's happening is, 
then, in PT, when I add a mono audio track, set its in to main 1, and it's 
output to main 1/2 stereo, then arm the track, if I then record, that one mono 
audio track is then capturing and recording both! my mike, and! the input 2 
from the multi-mix 4 with my iPhone. Technically, this is fine, but I'd really

If I set the input on a mono audio track to Main 2, then try recording, I 
get no audio at all. Just dead silence.

Before you say, check the configuration in the multi-mix 4's software 
panel, I can't. There is none. This interface doesn't have any software, no 
drivers, nothing. You just plug it in, and it just simply works. Or, shall I be 
a smart ass and say... doesn't work. LOL, in this case.

So, is there any way to do this, based on the info I've provided?

Soothe plugin recently discussed

2017-04-10 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
OK, that! is freaking! incredible! I just downloaded the 14 day trial.  I will, 
so! be buying this thing next month! It might be just over $150 but who! cares! 
Oh! my heavens! No willy milly activation crud that I can see, at least not in 
the trial, and the plugin by the way, though no presets, unless they're not 
accessible, is totally! totally! 1! hundred! percent accessible with voiceover 
from what I can see, and you'd not believe, even without tweaking a single 
thing, just alone by popping it on a track with no other plugs, you'd not 
believe! what a difference it made! If you think the C L A 2 A is good in 
dynamically keeping things level, and also e queueing things, you've heard 
nothing in my opinion at least! Wow! I'm breathtaken! I am normally not the 
type for just popping plugs on inserts, then just saying B'bow'wm! done! but, 
in this one case, I gotta tell ya, I need to read the manual, but as great as 
that sounds with absolutely no  tweaking? I shutter! to think what this baby 
could do with! some tweaking. Good!  knite in shiny armer!

Fantastic! Would you happen to know if the activation process, or the plug

If so, I'm gonna give the trial a go.

Really confused about meter readings

2017-03-31 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Sorry for the crosspost. I wanted to consult both lists though to make sure I 
get the best answer from both DAW angles. Though this is mainly about Reaper, 
not ProTools, there definitely are some aspects which are crutial to 
understanding in means of comparing how PT does things vs. how Reaper would do 
it. So, in that sense, yes, this is on topic.

So... I'm trying to train a friend of mine how to better mix audio. We've not 
yet gotten to the point where I'm teaching him the masterring phase.

Right now, we're working on gain staging, microphone placement/proxemity, etc.

The issue is he recorded a test audio file onto a track in Reaper, then while 
playing, he looked at his meters as his vocal was extremely extremely quiet. I 
get that you want some headroom so you're not going to push 0, which obviously 
equals a ruined recording in most cases. I told him on his meters to aim for 
around -12 to about -10, at most, DB. Then, we can use a compressor, or in some 
cases, other tricks to bring that up in the mix later.

I was very clear that when I said -12 to -10DB I was talking about the input 
signal level. Not the output level adjusted by the volume control in whatever 
DAW you're using located on the actual track itself.

He's not using an interface, just a general USB headset, so he doesn't really 
aside the Windows volume mixer have much control over gain adjustment. For this 
reason, I wanted him to aim a little low. Preferably, I'd like him to have 
about 6, to 3 at the least amount, DB of headroom he can work with. All this 
said, when he hits J and K while on the track in Reaper, he's showing the 
meters at around -50 on an average.

Now, here's where I'm! getting real confused! In ProTools, which is my choice 
of DAW for most things, when importing his recording on to an audio track, I'm 
seeing his levels at about -24DB on the peek. This makes a lot! more sense. 
-Come on! 50DB I don't think even would be audible in most cases.

He's not doing something wrong though in Reaper, as I checked it on my end in 
Reaper, and I see exactly the same readings he's getting. So, how in the world 
are our meters differring so much from DAW to DAW. I get that each DAW is gonna 
be a bit different on how the meterring works, but over all, signal noise ratio 
shouldn't fluctuate that drasticly, should it? I could see maybe 3 or 4, maybe 
even upwards to 5 DB's difference, but not to the point where it's doubling the 
DB signal from about -50 to -25. That just doesn't make any sense! Audibly, the 
levels sounds the same.

In PT, I have my meters set to hold infinent, so at the highest peek, they 
stick until I reset them. I still however don't think that's the issue here.

So, I guess ultimately, what I'm asking is, what signal is being considerred in 
Reaper on a track when you hit J and K? I mean I know J is the left channel, 
K's the right channel. Duh! I get that. What I mean is, is it showing the 
current output level, or is it showing more the signal coming to the input IO 
path, or what?

I'm wonderring if ProTools is somehow analyzing a different signal path than 
what I'm getting with Reaper, although, I don't see how that would be the case.

I can't effectively teach this guy until I get this mystory resolved, as he's 
not wanting to focus on just one DAW, like ProTools, or Reaper. He wants to 
more learn about mixing over all in a more broader scale.

Chris.

  Oh I wasn't trying to be patronizing, but in this day where everyone feels 
entitled, and protests and makes a scene when they feel they've been slighted, 
it's always good to remember that those tactics sometimes get results, but not 
the ones we necessarily want. It's kinda like when the NFB thought it would be 
cute to discuss a class action against Avid and other companies. I much prefer 
things going the way they are with healthy dialog between us and manufacturers. 
Full access may take longer, but in the end, I believe the level of it will be 
far better.

  Chris, a few things actually stand in the way. One of them is the 
cross-platform nature of the plugins. They write the foundational code once to 
make it work in both Mac and Windows. The other thing is that they run within 
what ever host they're installed in. The other hurtle is that Apple itself has 
not made the mouse pointer accessible at all. If there were a way for us to 
actually hear what was under the mouse, then there's probably a lot more we 
could actually do regarding many plugins that sighted people take for granted. 
The first line of questioning may need to go to Apple, as an accessible way to 
move and hear what the mouse pointer lands on could really make a difference. 
Waves has a large install base, and very little of it is blind. They're 
completely aware of their software's limitations, and are doing what they can 
to help us, including even expressing interest in doing so. You forget that 
just a few years ago, neither Logic nor Pro Tools were accessible for us at 
all! Windows users still can't enjoy PT, and the Sonar solution we used to 
enjoy is now 6 or 7 versions out of date. I'd say access has come a long way, 
and first and foremost, we should be thankful for what we have, while 
continuing to encourage developers to work on solutions for us. We got here, 
not because we were bullies, but because we were politely expressive in wanting 
access.

Re: Waves installation?

2017-03-01 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
I'm curious why things are not accessible, if they care about accessibility? 
It's been now what... almost 4 years, if not more, since I first heard about 
these guys, and things still are not any more accessible than they were back in 
the days?

In you all's defense, yes, they will help remote in and take care of things for 
you, but that still should never be a sollution for considerring good 
accessibility, and now with A11Y being where it is, I'm not sure this would 
fall under that, probably not, but, still...

Loop grounding?

2017-02-28 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
I'm having a really weird issue with my studio setup, and wanted to see if 
anyone has any idea what may be going on here.

I have a Roland RP401R digital piano which I have going directly into my Alesis 
Multimix4 interface with a stereo cable going from the line out of the piano to 
the left and right in on my multimix.

When I do this, I'm noticing that only when powered on, if I put my ear right 
up to the top of the piano near the music stand, I can hear a very noticeable 
hum. I'm not sure if it's 60HZ, but it's definitely there. I don't hear it 
through my speakers though, and it's not bleeding into any recordings. I dono 
if this is just natural Johnson-Nyquist noise, or what, but I can tell you this:

  a.. I don't hear it when the piano is powered off.
  b.. I don't hear it through headphones, line out, nor internal speakers
  c.. I only hear it faintly when putting my ear up to the piano, but it's 
definitely there.
  d.. Turning off the Multimix4 has no baring.
  e.. Turning all  levels on all channels to minus infinity doesn't help.
  f.. The hum is equal pitch to the lowest B flat on a standard piano.
  g.. Disconnecting all cables running to/from the piano doesn't help.
  h.. Unplugging the electrical from the multi-mix isn't helping.
  i.. The piano is not in a serge protector nor a power strip, it's straight in 
the wall and has a 2 prong transformer.
  j.. All cords are snugged and connected well.
  k.. Finally, I didn't have this issue when I first got the piano about a year 
and a half ago, and turning the volume on the piano itself up or down isn't 
effecting it.

I'm  almost wonderring if we've got a ground loop going on here.

Anyone have any ideas? I've also switched out my cables just in case there was 
a short, but there absolutely isn't, as that didn't help either.

One more thing is, my piano is only about 2 and a half feet from my computer 
monitor. Could it be that monitor amitting RF noise which somehow the  piano is 
amplifying?

I'd like to figure this out, as this is becoming rather irritating. I just 
don't want the piano all a sudden electically to go kuh boom! Yes, I'm using 
the original power cord for everything, so we don't have improper vultage etc. 
going on.

And, nothing's smoken,  so... LOL!

  Just wondering then.
  What  does visual acuity have to do with song interpretation?  and at 
  what level  does the acuity play a role?
  the song is a favorite of mine as well.  still say John Garry's 
  absolutely goose bump rendition is such because he captures the song, not 
  because of visual acuity, speaking only for myself I mean.
  Given your stance here it plays some role in your appreciation of the song 
  and I am simply curious.

That did the trick, Slau. Thank you! That's exactly what I was doing wrong. I 
didn't realize I had to put those templates in their own sub folder within 
Track Presets.

The article Bryan sent states you can put them in the main presets folder, but 
that if down the road you want to move them you can. I guess I was under the 
impression that moving them into their own folder categories like that was 
simply for nothing more than file management organization. I didn't understand 
that it actually made the difference in PT seeing it or not. I apologize for 
the confusion. All's working now.

  You need to put the template files within yet another folder within the Track

and drop that template in there. When you create a new track, in the track type 
pop-up menu, one of the items in the list will be "Pre-Fader Sends." When you 
select that option, a second pop-up list will appear to the right and any 
templates located in that folder will show up in that second pop-up list. You 
might create templates for virtual instrument tracks with plug-ins already

Brian,

This isn't working.

I'm on PT 12, and it looks like this article is for V8 and V9. They even 
mention in it, if this doesn't make it into PT 11, Avid needs to be shot. So, 
yeah, I'm wonderring if this feature has been deprecated, or maybe there is 
another way now that this has to be done.

This is PT 12.4 running on Sierra 10.12.3.

I did what it said, creating the folder within /Applications/Avid/Protools 
called "Track Presets", obviously, without the quotes, and I made sure to pay 
attention to uppercase and lowercase letterings, and I put the track inside 
that folder.

To get things configured as needed, I had to create two tracks. One audio 
mono track which I then popped a send on Send A, and sent it to a new track, 
which is a stereo auxiliary input, and I made sure the IO paths were correctly 
set on each track. Then I popped my reverb on insert A of that aux input, as 
well as a compressor, set my volumes and presets on each of the two plugs, plus 
set everything on the audio track, then, made sure in the track list table, 
that both tracks were selected, which they were, then, that's! when I tried 
saving the preset.

When I then create a new session, then with no tracks in it, I hit 
command+Shift+N for new track, then look in the track type popup button, I do 
not see Lead Vocal, which is what I named the template which I placed in the 
newly created Track Presets folder.

I also tried doing the same thing under my user 
directory/Documents/Protools, but putting the Track Presets directory there 
didn't work either.

Yes. I did close and reopen ProTools after saving. Still no luck.

over several different PT sessions. Yeah, I know I could just make a PT 
template, but I really don't wanna do that, as in this case, I might not want 
the send doing exactly the same thing.

So, my point therefore is, is there a way that I can somehow set 
ProTools so that by default all sends in all sessions and on all tracks will 
be, when created, set to pre, instead of post, thereby saving me the trouble of 
having to keep constantly hitting the prefader button within the send itself? I 
don't mind doing so, but after a while, it gets kind of old, and honestly, kind 
of annoying.

Re: Send Defaults

2017-02-16 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Brian,

This isn't working.

I'm on PT 12, and it looks like this article is for V8 and V9. They even 
mention in it, if this doesn't make it into PT 11, Avid needs to be shot. So, 
yeah, I'm wonderring if this feature has been deprecated, or maybe there is 
another way now that this has to be done.

This is PT 12.4 running on Sierra 10.12.3.

I did what it said, creating the folder within /Applications/Avid/Protools 
called "Track Presets", obviously, without the quotes, and I made sure to pay 
attention to uppercase and lowercase letterings, and I put the track inside 
that folder.

To get things configured as needed, I had to create two tracks. One audio mono 
track which I then popped a send on Send A, and sent it to a new track, which 
is a stereo auxiliary input, and I made sure the IO paths were correctly set on 
each track. Then I popped my reverb on insert A of that aux input, as well as a 
compressor, set my volumes and presets on each of the two plugs, plus set 
everything on the audio track, then, made sure in the track list table, that 
both tracks were selected, which they were, then, that's! when I tried saving 
the preset.

When I then create a new session, then with no tracks in it, I hit 
command+Shift+N for new track, then look in the track type popup button, I do 
not see Lead Vocal, which is what I named the template which I placed in the 
newly created Track Presets folder.

I also tried doing the same thing under my user directory/Documents/Protools, 
but putting the Track Presets directory there didn't work either.

Yes. I did close and reopen ProTools after saving. Still no luck.

Chris.

  Hi Steve,

  In the edit window, use the Track View pop-up to change the view from 
Waveform to any of the automation parameters that might be present in the 
track. Use standard keystrokes to select sections or all of the contents of the 
track to delete. No audio will be deleted, only the displayed automation 
parameter. Remember to switch back to waveform when you want to work with audio 
editing.

Now I'm trying to get the libraries so I can make sure the 
workstation is loading them. Question though is, how do I manually install 
these things.

When I run the Ravencroft installer, it comes up with the license 
agreement according to what Apple Accessibility tells me when they remoted in, 
but with them verbally guiding me with the mouse, when we clicked accept to 
accept the license, it then pops up with the little VILabsAudio installer logo, 
but then just sits there, or so it seems.

After you accept the terms, is that when the libraries in the 
background are downloaded?

Where can I go to get to the library files? I tried going to the 
Ravenscroft installer.app file, VO+shift+spacing on it, then going to view 
package content, but even digging into the .app file, I can't find where the 
actual libraries themselves are.

Am I gonna need sighted help to do this? I was udner the impression 
that though the installer wasn't really accessible, I manually could copy the 
files in the Finder over and do it that way.

Did I misunderstand?

Chris.

Aa. That's kind a what I figured. Are they any good though? I have a few songs 
which do have a cowbell sound needed within the purcussion drums portion of the 
song, or, if it was you, would you honestly say I'd be better just using one of 
the drum kits with Xpand2.

  Chris,
  The cowbell package is just a free little library for those who wish to try 
out the UVI Workstation as a host for plug-ins. It's just included by default 
in all user accounts.

Slau,

That worked perfectly. Thank you for your help.

What is this real cowbells download that would be in my downloads area of 
their website? I didn't buy anything of the sort, or does that also come with 
the 275? Do you know if these to default, and close presets would work with the 
Real Cowbells? My guess is no, but I figured I'd ask.

Chris.

  Chris,
  Decompress the RAR file using something like The Unarchiver then take the 
resulting .ufs file and put it in the following directory:
  User Library/Application Support/UVISoundBanks

OK, I got Ravencroft 275 piano downloaded, and I see the presets in the 
Dropbox folder. Once I downloaded what I needed, I got the workstation 
installed. That worked perfectly.

Now I'm trying to get the libraries so I can make sure the workstation 
is loading them. Question though is, how do I manually install these things.

When I run the Ravencroft installer, it comes up with the license 
agreement according to what Apple Accessibility tells me when they remoted in, 
but with them verbally guiding me with the mouse, when we clicked accept to 
accept the license, it then pops up with the little VILabsAudio installer logo, 
but then just sits there, or so it seems.

After you accept the terms, is that when the libraries in the 
background are downloaded?

Where can I go to get to the library files? I tried going to the 
Ravenscroft installer.app file, VO+shift+spacing on it, then going to view 
package content, but even digging into the .app file, I can't find where the 
actual libraries themselves are.

Am I gonna need sighted help to do this? I was udner the impression 
that though the installer wasn't really accessible, I manually could copy the 
files in the Finder over and do it that way.

Did I misunderstand?

Chris.
