Ed has been a key figure at avid and, before that, Digidesign, for some 30 years. Ed was director of third-party partnering so he worked with all of the plug-in developers and auxiliary software products.

For many years, Ed has faced serious health challenges which stemmed mostly from diabetes. He started losing his vision about 20 years ago and has had essentially no useable sight for the last 10 years. His diabetes lead to kidney failure as well as a recent amputation of one leg just below the knee.

Despite dialysis treatments, his condition has continued to worsen. Most recently, he was enduring 3 treatments per week but continued to decline. He recently decided to stop his treatments. Doctors gave him about a week or so to live. He’s still with us but doesn’t have long at all.

when I spoke with him only 2 weeks ago, he hadn’t made his decision yet. As of a few days ago, he shared the news with friends and family. At this point, the community at large has learned of his situation. I’ve been in touch with him over the weekend and he asked me to share the news with blind Pro Tools users. His most recent message read:

“Slau, thank you for sending this wonderful note. It is nice to hear from you. I will be around for a few days next week and try to reach out to some of the gang but I hope you'll pass on word to the group of what is happening and tell them that I intentionally enjoyed working with them. I know that you and I have done a lot to open the door to visually impaired users to ProTools, and that the work, and the best moments by far are still yet to come. Love, ed.”

We’ll sorely miss him but will continue to work and honor his legacy as a champion of accessibility.

Ronald, this is a bit off-topic but have you used the app to edit this amplifier?I’m thinking of buying the boss and I just wondered how accessible it was from the computer.

So, I know a bit of inside behind the scene how his mind works, and what teaching styles work and don't work with him.My directness and tone has absolutely nothing to do with me intentionally or there not being better than thou or anything.Like others, I had to start somewhere too. This is why I suggested to ronald to look at chapters 3 and chapters 5 of the PT Access guide.I'm not honestly entirely sure how me saying that came off as disrespectful or belittling etcetera.In his initial message, Ronald said he was having issues routing with his amp. When I said first off, you gave us hardly any info to go on, that wasn't meant to come across as, you stupid idiot, you hardly told us anything. Ronald is very intelligent, and so are many others on this list. Hell! I'm quite confident there are many on this list who know way way way wa! more than I do!My point is, I was simply making true fact. When you don't provide crutial information like what amp in this case you're using, it makes it very difficult to trouble shoot the problem, when we don't know specifically what hardware one is working with. That's literally all I meant. It would be like someone saying, how can I make this beverage sweeter, and that's all they tell you. Better yet, how can I make this dish sweeter? Yet, we don't know what the dish is.Well, add some chocolate syrip to it. Well, that would be real tasty if it was a ceasar salad with bausomic vinnagrette dressing already on it. Youzers! That nearly makes me herl just thinking about the combination. LOL!Point is, how can I help you, when you haven't even given me much any data to go on.Now if you said, I'm making some cookies, but they don't taste sweet enough, then, ok, now I have something to go on and to fundamentally build from.Sorry for the long message, but I had to say something, as though it wasn't said directly, I guarantee Rocco was probably trying indirectly to hint to my message.

Re: editing a mp4 video

2021-01-16 Thread Ricky Prevatte

I have not messed up any video by simply importing it in ProTools.
Now I am not the person to ask too much about this stuff but it’s just been 
simple for me to bring it in do some compression and EQ and let it go at that.
What I really want to do is to be able to put some voiceover and music to some 
pictures and other video frames we will have to see how that goes. I am very 
interested in learning more because I want to do this for my massage business.

Do you use the iPhone or any kind of I device?
Do you use flotools or have you heard of Protools with speech?
I read PDF files with my phone and other devices not on computer.
These other suggestions have great documentation or should I say they are great

Are you listening to podcast on this as well?

Re: best way to learn protools.

2019-04-17 Thread Ricky Prevatte

Great job on the album mat. Folks I highly recommend Protools with speech even 
though it is a little old this is a great thing. If you have to travel at a 
higher pace then pay the cost for a more expensive class it will make you the 
boss. But if you are traveling slow like me Protools with speech is the way to 
go I would also say the Protools with speech should be a prerequisite. It will 
help you to understand what you need to ask Byrin and others. I still refer to 
it even today. absolutely.

 Matt,
  
 Is your country album released yet which you speak of? I'd absolutely love 
 to hear it if so. I've got access to Apple Music, or could bill it to my 
 AT wireless account with my Android phone, provided it's on Google Play 
 Music. It would probably be easiest though for me to stream it with my A.M 
 subscription, like I have done with your Christian E.P, which BTW, if you 
 guys have not heard, you're intensely missing out; as it is excellent!

They are not doing any thing new.  I am saying lead services in the direction 
you want them to go.  You will find what you are looking for.  Avid is leading 
us away from Huey please understand.  My self and others use other things I am

If they are going to pay for it only get that that works with Protools an Avid 
product. made specifically by avid for Protools everything else runs on Huey. 
That will be your way to get services to pay for the best thing and they always 
take a shortcut. You can be truthful and make the decision to get the proper 
thing not just something to get you by. do your research and provide them with 
the proper documentation stating that Avid does not support Huey much anymore.

Re: control surfaces

2018-11-25 Thread Ricky Prevatte

Yes I do the rotators for my plug-ins. Unfortunately I am a sporadic Protools 
user and this is a bit tricky but there are some videos on YouTube that tell 
Howe to do this. I will try to put together something and do a little 
demonstration. It does increase the workflow when I am doing this on a regular 
basis and it is a very useful and doable thing. I would not buy anything else 
for Protools running in Huey emulation. The encoders wrap but with Flotools 
informing  what you are  doing this is very informational and easy to do to 
make parameter changes.

Re: Using PT with SSD

2018-10-31 Thread Ricky Prevatte

I have a Hybrid Dr., Jon and I do it sometimes while not tracking a bunch of 
plug-ins. But I think you are going to do more than what I am doing man of 
course is not SSD but I do get away with it even with the hybrid drive. I would 
definitely want to deal with two drives for full-time work the Mac Mini would 
be a great addition for you because in my mind you have no need for an iMac or 
something like that. I could and I do use an extra hard drive when I am mobile 
I’m just not doing anything like that now. But it is no trouble to lug an extra 
drive or to have one possibly installed inside the Mac Mini if you could. I 
just prefer external drive.

Are you aware of Flo tools? As John suggested you could work with your built-in

Re: Protools vs Logic Pro, accessibility and productivity

2018-02-06 Thread Ricky Prevatte

Well I will first clarify that I am not an expert on ProTools or logic. But 
when I start a project I intend to finish it I also intend to have a fairly 
simple work flow. The answer for me is Protools I have been a Windows user: 
those days are over. I am a logic user but I detest the drilling down and 
losing focus that goes on in logic. I am not doing the midi work that .
I  used to so for me Protools and a basic control surface is doing the job. I 
would not need The control surface if I did not have to see clients or have 
Fellow band members present.  as has  already been stated Flo Tools and the hot 
keys are doing a great job the addition of Flo Tools has allowed us to also 
access parameters with our control surface as well..

Re: FloTools issues on sierra 10.12.3 with PT 12.8

2017-09-12 Thread Ricky Prevatte

For me it is the cats meow. I would never be without it if I get time I will 
try and do something to help improve it. I am not making any money with it as 
well not even trying to. But hey it is fun easy and wonderful. I forget the 
shortcuts that's for sure but I keep the document open.

I have not done any key reset or macros. Just started using ProTools and my 
control surface again. I upgraded to the latest version of flow tools. I was 
missing other keystrokes but after restarting voiceover and the computer they 
came back. I did not make a note of those.

2017-09-02 Thread Ricky Prevatte

Talking will not get it done if you want to do this put down your Windows 
platform and do it. I was a terrible Mac user I still am less than desirable 
but I can get around on the Mac. You cannot learn ProTools or logic if you are 
not a decent Mac user. I have the same problem many years ago when windows came 
in to play but you can discuss it for 1000 years but until you do it you will 
never make progress.

Re: New to the list with a few questions

2017-07-23 Thread Ricky Prevatte

I am a Protools slouch. I mean to say I am not as proficient with Protools as 
many on this list. Have you ever ridden in a Cadillac or Mercedes-Benz? Have 
you also ever written in a Kia with say 100,000 miles on it. That is your 
difference. Loss of sound quality the Kia will rattle and fall apart. The 
Cadillac or Mercedes will be running strong and so will and older version of 
ProTools. Protools is so easy to manage and navigate both from a professional 
standpoint and excess ability. I do a lot of work in logic but if it is 
something that I would have a paying client it would be done with my Protools. 
If it were something that really mattered for my personal use it would be done 
and Protools. I just use logic for conversion of my 5000 projects that I did 
with Sonar. I may use logic with a canned track. Even that does not sound as 
good as when I do it with Protools.

Re: Using Protools with Mackie MCU pro

2017-05-18 Thread Ricky Prevatte

I have a Mackie unit I will help you and however I can with it. There are some 
things it just will not do in Protools. But the basic things it does very well. 
My rig is down at a time I can better answer your questions when I have 
everything up and I am sitting at it. Do you have the template layout that 
Mackie created for Protools?

Re: Relearning ProTools

2017-05-11 Thread Ricky Prevatte

Protools on the mack is the way to go. They even have a specific set of Scripps 
call flow tools to assist with the current version of ProTools. A good 
interface and control service will get you where you need to go. You could 
spend very little or if you want to do bands thousands of dollars if you were 
familiar as you say with Protools that will help a lot.

Re: my control surface dilemma, a real drag

2016-04-25 Thread Ricky Prevatte

I am running ProTools 12 and Mavericks. I had problem with Yosemite and had to 
roll back. All of that stuff works well with the latest version of logic as 
well on those older operating systems. I am not going to upgrade myself out of 
house and home I have thisDAW Running well I am going to keep it that way. I 
have a nice quick hard drive in the old laptop I have my CD drive I have no

Hi Gordon I believe if you took your laptop in and have it rolled back to 
Mavericks or Yosemite your problem would be solved. If there is an issue that 
you need the newer update I understand but it may be cheaper and I know there 
is no learning curve there. I use my Presonus studio live for my console. It 
will not support El Capitan as well. I just bought a control surface and mackie 
MCU pro may not support it as well. I have heard that it did run with El

I am not going to take that chance. But all those surface issues you mentioned

studio live for less than a grand.

Re: Solo safe

2016-04-18 Thread Ricky Prevatte

You can use a mouse or you can purchase a wireless trackpad as well. That does 
not give you the answer you wanted but it does make options possible. I have to 
use the mouse or my trackpad with mine.

Re: Great Article on Compression Artifacts

2016-04-18 Thread Ricky Prevatte

I sure enjoyed that article. It makes no sense but it is everything. Because I 
have had this happen so many times. Never considered compression. Funny thing 
always noticed it went away when I changed compression settings. I never gave 
credit to compression thought it would might have been my great EQ skill. But 
compression caused it thanks for the share.

Re: creating a dynamic click track

2016-03-19 Thread Ricky Prevatte

All is well here massage business is great, studio is coming along getting a 
little business there, and my band gigs are picking up. I barely have time to 
take a bath and do other things necessary. I am working out a lot even getting 
back on the tandem bike. Got to get this kid in college.

It will work better with logic then with Protools. I am very impressed with 
Protools but flip mode works and many other things. Go ahead pick up logic Pro

Re: logic

2016-03-02 Thread Ricky Prevatte

Yes that is very true Poppa. I run logic like a large bank of instruments if 
you will for midi.
With the Mackie unit I am able to do all sorts of amazing things just as you 
could in Protools but nothing edit and mixes like Protools. But logic is a 
handy thing to have I would buy it before I bought extra plug-ins for Protools 
to handle my midi  Deeds. I do some simple vocal things and the master Fater 
being in the same place is awful handy as well. I am just now able to tie 
everything up the way I had always envisioned it.

Re: logic

2016-03-01 Thread Ricky Prevatte

Get it Steve it is a great investment. You have too much midi  from your 
windows days that logic would handle easily for you. For only $200 you cannot 
go wrong it will give you more drum sounds if we all work together we can learn 
how to combine those kits and make some excellent drum kit creations. But it 
will open a standard midi file and you just need to switch patches like with 
Sonar. It has a B3 organ that is to die for. Very authentic guitar sounds and 
many other great things. I just choose up patches and get a song going and 
logic export and import it into ProTools and turn out nice project. I am 
forcing myself to use only logic so I can learn the program better. I did this 
when I bought my first Apple Computer. I am not going to abandon Protools 
because version 12 is a truly great thing. By the way logic works great with

2011 I do believe. The reason I draw that conclusion my son has an I five from

they had to stop at and he did not have but one Jack on his machine.

One more thing whatever computer you get be sure to max out the ram it is not 
very expensive today. Are you using multiple hard drives for recording? If not 
you need a great FireWire drive or something very fast as I said  in my earlier 
post Sweetwater can advise what to do.

Re: Mac and Control Surface Recommendations

2016-03-01 Thread Ricky Prevatte

When it comes to a Mac computer I would definitely never be under an ice seven 
processor if I were spending money. I would keep what you have until I could do 
that. Mac mini or more iMac or some kind of tower would be a strong upgrade I 
use the MCU pro.
If I were you I would call Sweetwater music and talk with them. They will  
consult with  you and tell you what to do even if you do not purchase anything 
from them at this time. I will say they do sell the Apple product and they have 
a great finance plan. They will support you for two years set everything up 
with you but will not train you but they have lots of great information at 
sweet care which is their support site. More and more experience in dealing 
with Blind Mac users just food for thought sometimes you can pay a little more 
to start out and get exactly what you need saving a headache and just enjoying 
or be productive in your studio.  You can find that Mackie used for the same 
price as the X touch. The faders are so quiet and the unit works so great I 
highly recommend that. What are you putting your audio into the machine with?

Re: FW1884 feasible or replacement

2016-02-26 Thread Ricky Prevatte

I sure miss my Tascam Peter. I went the way of the Mackie because I have a 
really nice mixer with Great preamp. But the digi  would do well as Poppa has 
told you for mixing and controlling. That unit will not serve as a standalone 
mixer like our Tascam  units did. It will record and it will automate and do 
the same things but it is not a standalone unit to plug into powered speakers 
and provide sound. The 002 will do that but not the 003.

That was not mentioned by 11 four would not even run correctly with Yosemite.

Re: Can any Avid do the job?

2016-02-19 Thread Ricky Prevatte

Kevin is exactly right for example the Mackie unit we have can be purchased for 
six or $800. You can get a brand-new one for around US$1000. If you are in 
thought of even moving to logic it will work great with logic Pro X. They say 
the artist things will work as well but that is a very huge expense for a start 
up project. I used to use a Tascam I can truthfully say I do not know how I 
made it without a surface. I would have gotten much more work done had  I went  
a head and bought something a lot sooner after leaving my Tascam FW 1082 and 
windows behind..
