Chris, usb-c to usb A and vice versa converters are like $5. So if they ever do 
switch the iLok’s over which they probably will at some point in the distant

Re: Question about iLoks and the iLok manager

Yes, you can either transfer to a key or simply deactivate the license and it 
goes back to your iLok account and you can reactivate afterwards.

Re: Question about iLoks and the iLok manager

Well, I suppose that, when you consider Internet connectivity, regardless of 
whether a wifi network is being used, there's a wire involved to get a network 
connection to a router. Maybe that's what he was thinking? Anyway, yeah, PT 
began supporting cloud activations last year. It's OK, I suppose.

Re: Question about iLoks and the iLok manager

My understanding is that the replacement of licenses is up to the discretion of 
the developer. To me, it's kind of a no-brainer to use an iLok key for 
everything if possible. That said, it's also been convenient to just throw a 
license on the drive to free up a USB slot if necessary. Horses for courses, I 
guess.

 see however that when activating a plugin through the iLok manager, I 
 either can put the asset on my physical iLok USB dongle, or I can actually 
 put it locally on my mac itself.

 I guess my main question is, like there is on an iLok dongle, is there a 
 limit on how many assets will fit if I was to store them instead on my 
 mac? Also, having this option, does that mean that technically speaking, 
 as long as I don't plan to move around from one system to another, I could 
 theoreticly store the asset there instead of on my actual dongle itself? 
 Finally, what would be the disadvantages aside the obvious of no 
 portability from one system to another of having it stored locally on my

Re: Question about iLoks and the iLok manager

2020-01-03 Thread Ronald van Rhijn

I have learned from my Pro Tools dealer that the Cloud only registration needs 
a wired internet connection, no wifi will do. , 
Anyone know why this is the case? I would definately like to have a ilok-less 
setup.

Thank you for your help. That's pretty much what i suspected for the
answer, but I definitely do appreciate your confirmation on the matter.

Have a wonderful rest of your day.

Re: Question about iLoks and the iLok manager

2020-01-02 Thread Slau Halatyn

There are 3 main variables to iLok licensing as it relates to location and they 
are determined by the developer. It's up to the developer to determine whether 
a license can be activated to an iLok, a computer and the cloud. Some 
developers allow all three while some only allow one or two. The third 
generation iLok can store at least 512 licenses if not more. I'd imagine 
there's no theoretical maximum for computer activation slots. One disadvantage 
with computer activation is that you have to remove all license activations if 
you're formatting the drive. Apart from that, portability is a big factor for 
some users.

Re: Question on latest Protools on Mojave

If it's a new installation and you've never set up an OS for Pro Tools, you'll 
definitely need to go through all of the necessary tweaks.

I don't use Step Record but it is doable in Pro Tools. I'm sure there's 
probably a chapter on it in the Reference Guide.

One more thing that just occurred to me: if you're simply upgrading and not

Re: Question on latest Protools on Mojave

Hi Christian,

While Pro Tools has always had requirements for certain settings in the 
operating system, those things can change from OS to OS. Pro Tools With Speech 
was created several operating systems before Mojave so there will be some 
things specific to Mojave and other things that have always applied. The thing 
to do is to follow the installation instructions in the Intro to Pro Tools PDF. 
That will always be the best thing to do. Equally effective would be to do a 
Google search to find an avid article on system optimization for Mojave (or 
whatever the OS at the time).
HTH,
Slau

Re: Question to all MacBook users

2019-04-02 Thread Michael Holmes

I found a reasonably priced USB C dock for my USB A peripherals and iLok from 
Amazon Basics. It works with my bus powered Korg NanoPad and my Behringer 
UMC220HD, which is my live theater sound cue hardware.

For Thunderbolt 2.0 conversion, I use a StarTech single converter for my Apogee 
Element 46. I started with an Apple converter, but it stopped working in a few 
months, so I would go for the StarTech if only looking for one Thunderbolt 2.0 
to 3.0 converter.

All this being said, I agree that a full Thunderbolt dock is likely the best 
choice. I believe StarTech has a few, and personal experience with the brand 
lasting longer than an equivalent Apple product would have me choose StarTech, 
if choosing a third party brand. I mean no disrespect to Apple, as they do an 
amazing job 99% of the time; it is just the single converter which didn’t work 
for me.

Agreeing with Steve—Thunderbolt Dock is the way to go. Make sure you get one 
that's Mac compatible. I've never had any issues but others have purchased Dell 
hubs and they don't work. A proper retailer should point you in the right 
direction. In the states we have places that specialize in Apple peripherals.

Re: Question to all MacBook users

2019-04-02 Thread Steve Martin

I have a thunderbolt hub Thats a few years old that I connect to my 2017 MBP 
with the apple thunderbolt 2 to Thunderbolt 3 adapter. (Thunderbolt 1 and 2 are 
backwards compatible) If its just for Ephernet, keyboards, iLok and etc, You 
can find a USB-C dock with 100 watt pass through for power so you can power 
your laptop and have all those things plugged in for not much money. Soundcards 
I  would connect directly with aUSB-c to USB adapter or thunderbolt 2 to 
thunderbolt 3 adapter depending on what interface you have. Drives I would 
connect directly as well or put them on their own hub. If they are USB3 
external drives a USB-C hub should be sufficient, just get one of the ones with 
the 10GB maximum throughput.

Re: question.

2019-03-19 Thread Steve Martin

If you have the original 6i6, then yes it won’t work with the iOS control app. 
If you have the 6i6 MKII then it will. Regarding the Art Tube MP, as someone 
else stated run the art output low and turn up the gain on the scarlet. Running 
short cables could help also.  Depending on the plug socket type used it can be 
easy to pull out. Some devices will have a loop on the back next to the power 
socket for you to run the power cable through before plugging it in so it won’t 
be as likely to be unplugged. If its anything like the 2i4 then there isn’t a 
power button.

Re: question.

2019-03-19 Thread Michael Holmes

The Focusrite may be like my Apogee, which clicks on when I power up the Mac. I 
haven’t tried their stuff, so take it as ya will.

I have both the MP and the MPv3, and I have the same issue. I bought the v3, 
because I thought my first MP was noisy from sitting in my shed, but the new 
one is also noisy. I think it’s because the boost switch uses more input gain, 
though I’m just guessing again. Your best bet is using more gain on your 
interface and going light on the MP’s gain.

Hope this helped,
Mike

Re: question about new audio interface for traveling purposes and good microphone suggestions

2017-11-15 Thread Slau Halatyn

I don't have any opinion one way or another, frankly. These days, modern 
converters sound great and it's more a matter of their connectivity and 
flexibility. Thus far, the Apogee stuff has been almost entirely accessible 
through the Apogee Maestro software. With the new Control software, since they 
broke with their long tradition of being Mac only, we're now seeing the down 
side of the cross-platform side step. As far as pure sound quality, though, 
it's pretty much a non issue.

Hi Nate,
When using it with Pro Tools, stuff like bit depth and sample rate are 
identified by the session itself. The things that you'd need to use the Apogee 
software for are items such as soft limit and, if applicable, analog versus 
digital assignments to the interface's output channels. Also, any preamp 
volumes are also accessed through the Apogee software. I found it to be 
somewhat accessible, although as I mentioned, apparently the iOS version is

Re: Question about Pro Tools

2017-10-30 Thread Slau Halatyn

Hi Christian,

Sorry for the delayed response here. I thought somebody else might chime in. 
Pro Tools has only limited basic instruments included with it. I'd strongly 
recommend the AIR Music Technology Expansion Pack or, preferably, Native 
Instruments Komplete Kontrol.
An extended keyboard is not absolutely necessary but highly recommended.
There are no up-to-date resources specific to Pro Tools. There are tutorials on 
ProToolswithSpeech.com  but they're quite 
outdated in some ways. The best way to learn Pro Tools is to read the pdf 
manuals. It's a ton of reading but it's the best way to learn. Asking questions 
here is always welcome and, for those who have invested enormous amounts of 
time reading manuals, it's a pleasure to help those who help themselves.
Cheers,
Slau

Hi Nate,
When using it with Pro Tools, stuff like bit depth and sample rate are 
identified by the session itself. The things that you'd need to use the Apogee 
software for are items such as soft limit and, if applicable, analog versus 
digital assignments to the interface's output channels. Also, any preamp 
volumes are also accessed through the Apogee software. I found it to be 
somewhat accessible, although as I mentioned, apparently the iOS version is

Thats annoying as I was still considering an ensemble one day and they updated 
the ensemble to use the elements control software now.  But if the iOS app 
works then thats a start. Hopefully One can pair iOS to the device or desktop

If memory serves correct it looks like the iOS app had everything that was in 
the main app. I never tried to route outputs or anything like that as by the 
time the iOS app came out Focusrite had already saved some presets for me so I 
had no need to try it in the app. I also had the 8PreX which is a 2 rackspace 
unit and has alot more physical hardware buttons than the rest of the Clarett 
line. This ment the only thing i needed the app for most of the times was 
switching the preamp between normal and air mode.

The process of taking screen shots of the controls in various states, creating 
multi-stage macros which verify the state of controls and give speech feedback 
of the state of those controls and testing those macros, adjusting them, etc. 
takes a lot of time and I guarantee that Focusrite will not hang out for hours 
while this is taking place. Grabbing a few coordinates isn't enough. The 
solution itself is feasible but would take a bunch of work. It's more realistic 
to rely on local sighted assistance that you can access a couple of times 
throughout the process. I'm willing to help with the process but anyone wanting 
to take it on needs to understand exactly how the software works, what's going 
on visually and should expect that it'll take a bunch of time.

How extensive is the Focusrite iOS app? Is it very basic or does it offer 
enough parameters to get by with only using the app and not bothering with the 
control software?

Well if you had the Focusrite hardware you could then call technical

and no doubt would help create an accessible solution for their software
with Keyboard Maestro.  Had them take a look on machines here and they are

The second gen scarlet and the Clarett are using the same control software.
The difficulty  with Keyboard Maestro may be if it shows a different

Thats annoying as I was still considering an ensemble one day and they updated 
the ensemble to use the elements control software now.  But if the iOS app 
works then thats a start. Hopefully One can pair iOS to the device or desktop 
app independently. Thats the downside with the Focusrite stuff, you need 
sighted assistance to pair the iOS app to the desktop app.

Re: question about new audio interface for traveling purposes and good microphone suggestions

2017-09-13 Thread Slau Halatyn

Even if the interface displays different things, it's possible to customize it 
so that macros are specific to the connected interface. A lot can be 
accomplished but it's a matter of having access to the hardware in order to run 
the software as a start.

The software for the Elements interfaces is somewhat accessible and, again, 
Keyboard Maestro can help. The story is exactly the same: I need to have the 
hardware in order to make it work. Once the work is done for one interface, 
it's not terribly difficult to adapt it for other interfaces. It's not a 100% 
solution but it can help a great deal.

The second gen scarlet and the Clarett are using the same control software. The 
difficulty  with Keyboard Maestro may be if it shows a different interface for 
each device type. Any idea if the Element Mac software is accessible or will we 
have to rely on the iOS software?

Re: question about new audio interface for traveling purposes and good microphone suggestions

2017-09-13 Thread Slau Halatyn

Hi Nate,

I would regard all Apogee products as high-quality and definitely great for any 
setup. The new Element series is less expensive by making the products a bit 
more software driven. That said, they do also offer the Apogee Control which is 
a hardware remote for the Elements series. As always, when moving away from one 
surface, one needs to consider the jump and it looks like the Fader Port 8 is a 
good deal for the price at around $500. There's been talk for a while about a 
Digi 004 but I wouldn't hold my breath. I think they're ditching the digi 
concept and going for the S series. I wouldn't be surprised if they came out 
with an S1 or something along those lines. Time will tell…

your opinion? I am looking at dumping the 003 myself and am in the dark right 
now, meaning, I am not sure what to think about adding to the rig because I 
have been off the grid for the last 18 months or so. I have a couple of nice

Re: question about new audio interface for traveling purposes and good microphone suggestions

2017-09-13 Thread Steve Martin

Portable and 8 combi inputs? Not sure that exist as anything with that many 
inputs usually ends up being atleast 1 rack space, or a larger desktop format. 
THe Focusrite Clarett 4 pre has 8 inputs but only 4 are mic/line. The other 4 
are just line inputs. Also it relies on the Focusrite control software for 
switching between line and instrument level on the first two inputs, Switching 
between the standard mic pres or the ones designed after their ISA preamps, and 
switching on the High Pass Filter. In my experience the iOS app was accessible 
with the 8prex so i assume the 4pre would work with it accessibly as well. The 
Mac app is not accessible last i looked.  Regarding the mic, BLUE looks to be 
doing a buy one get one free on the Hummingbird till end of december. Not sure 
if they have switchable polar patterns but they seem well reviewed so may be 
worth a look especially considering the price for two during the promotion.

Not exactly markers related but still important.  One cool feature of Pro

Samplitude, Samplitude will ask you if you want to import the tempo map.
This could be important to some as it was for me recently as I had been sent
a session in which the file gradually speeded up.  When I looked in
Samplitude's markers manager I could see all of the location points and
where the tempo map changed and this had all been done in Pro Tools.  Also I
was asked to do some drum replacement with Superior Drummer and was able to
easily do that with the same MIDI file that the producer had used with other
drum software and it all synced up beautifully.  Would be interesting to see
if Logic can do something similar.

Hi Brian,
Marker info is not embedded in a WAV. Clip information can be but I'm not
sure if Logic will interpret clip info in the same way. In other words, clip
info for a continuous WAV file is embedded and the host application imports
that file and sees the associated clips and recognizes their timestamps.
Pure Marker location information can be exported separately as text and
imported into a spreadsheet or text editor but then you'd have to manually
recreate those markers elsewhere in another DAW. Come to think of it,
markers can only be imported into Pro Tools from other session files rather
than from text so there's certainly a limitation going the other way but,
who knows, maybe Logic can import markers from a text file.
HTH,

Re: question about markers

Logic does ask you if you want to import tempo information when 
importing a midi file with it.

Hi Brian,
Marker info is not embedded in a WAV. Clip information can be but I'm not
sure if Logic will interpret clip info in the same way. In other words, clip
info for a continuous WAV file is embedded and the host application imports
that file and sees the associated clips and recognizes their timestamps.
Pure Marker location information can be exported separately as text and
imported into a spreadsheet or text editor but then you'd have to manually
recreate those markers elsewhere in another DAW. Come to think of it,
markers can only be imported into Pro Tools from other session files rather
than from text so there's certainly a limitation going the other way but,
who knows, maybe Logic can import markers from a text file.

Press F1 and F4 at the same time and then press only one of them. It should

Re: Question about recording guitar

When tuning by ear using harmonics, beware. Only 
tune using unisons or octaves. Use harmonics at 
the 5th or 12th frets and compare to open strings 
or fretted notes. Don't use harmonics at the 7th 
fret, as they are slightly flat (almost 2 cents) 
of the perfect fifth intervals used in equal 
temperament tuning. Comparing 5th fret and 7th 
fret harmonics, a popular tuning method, causes 
out-of-tune-ness with the first pair of strings, 
and this is compounded as you move across the neck!


Use a reliable reference like an electronic 
keyboard, reference tones from an electronic 
tuner etc. and get the open strings in tune first.


There probably isn't such a thing as a perfectly 
in tune guitar, and chasing this dream may drive 
you crazy if you're a person with absolute pitch. 
Your tech can get things very close though, and 
hopefully explain what he's doing so you can 
perform basic guitar maintenance yourself in the 
future.  Also, consider that compensating for 
poor intonation causes you to push and pull the 
strings, engraining bad habbits that are difficult to break later.


My guitar teacher in college recommended the 
following tuning method. IMPORTANT: It assumes 
that your guitar is properly intonated from the 
start, so that fretted notes all across the 
fretboard are perfectly in tune, or as close as possible!


1. Tune your A string using an accurate reference 
pitch from a tuning fork, keyboard, electronic tuner, tone generator, etc.


2. Fret your 4th string at the 7th fret (A) and 
adjust the tuning of the 4th string until there 
are no beats with the open 5th string.


3. Fret your 3rd string at the 2nd fret (A) and 
adjust the tuning of the 3rd string until there 
are no beats with the open 5th string.


4. Fret your 2nd string at the 10th fret (A) and 
adjust the tuning of the 2nd string until there 
are no beats with the open 5th string.



5. Fret your 1st string at the 5th fret (A) and 
adjust the tuning of the 1st string until there 
are no beats with the open 5th string.


6. Tune your low E string to the high E string so that there are no beats.

You will notice that this method gets one string 
in tune with a reliable reference, and tunes the 
other strings to it, using only octaves. If some 
of those pairs are too hard to hear, you can 
always use the 5th or 12th fret A string 
harmonics, since these are still octave multiples.

Re: Question about recording guitar

2016-01-02 Thread Ricky Prevatte

What it is is you probably do not have enough string around your peg to hold it 
in tune. Try to rewind the string or put another string on your problem may be 
solved. I have that problem just a while back.

Re: Question about recording guitar


do they have that system for acoustic guitars yet?

I don't believe Melodyne Editor is accessible. 
Melodyne Single Track is accessible on the PC 
side, with some rather extensive hotspot clicker 
sets and Jaws, but that only corrects monophonic material.


Best to just get the instrument properly set up.

Re: Question about recording guitar

I doubt the color matters, and those Gibson-style 
bridges are easy enough to adjust.  Each string 
has a screw for intonation adjustment and the 
bridge has a thumb screw at each end for action (string height) adjustment.


A lot of this is easy enough, once you get 
someone to show you the correct processes. yes, 
that includes adjusting the trus rod.  Feeler 
gauges may help if you want to keep track of your 
ideal string height, for example. The thumb 
screws can be turned by hand. A small Philips or 
slot screwdriver adjusts the individual saddle 
screws when setting intonation.  Your guitar may 
have come with the correct tool for adjusting the 
trus rod. Never adjust more than a quarter turn - 
an eighth of a turn would be better - and always 
give the guitar time to settle after each 
adjustment before re-evaluating the amount of neck curvature.

Subject: Re: Question about recording guitar

yeah, itâ€™s a bit of tryale  and error. 
Generally i much prefer a guitar tech to do this 
work. But i have gotten myself out of 
trouble.  What sort of guitar do you have, if 
itâ€™s a stratt or Tele, there are 6 little 
screws on the back of the bridge. These adjust 
the string length. So normally what i do is hit 
the string open, and then play the harmonic on 
the 12th fret, and compare the pitch of the two 
notes. I think a tuner would make it easy for a 
sighted person. If the harmonic is flat, then 
get a little screw driver and turn the screw 
clockwise, and the oppersit  way if itâ€™s 
sharp. But you wonâ€™t need to turn it much, maybe an 8th  of a turn or less.


How ever having said that, if you have never 
been shown how to do this, may be best to get 
some sighted assistance first from someone whoâ€™d done this before.


There may be lots of reasons why the intonation 
is out, yes the harmonics will help, and are 
very much a part of the set up.  but it could be 
something to do with a nec adjustment swell. I 
donâ€™t play around with that at all.

Chris, I'd never heard of that method with the octaves, I'll have to give 
that a try.

When tuning by ear using harmonics, beware. Only
tune using unisons or octaves. Use harmonics at
the 5th or 12th frets and compare to open strings
or fretted notes. Don't use harmonics at the 7th
fret, as they are slightly flat (almost 2 cents)
of the perfect fifth intervals used in equal
temperament tuning. Comparing 5th fret and 7th
fret harmonics, a popular tuning method, causes
out-of-tune-ness with the first pair of strings,
and this is compounded as you move across the neck!

Use a reliable reference like an electronic
keyboard, reference tones from an electronic
tuner etc. and get the open strings in tune first.

There probably isn't such a thing as a perfectly
in tune guitar, and chasing this dream may drive
you crazy if you're a person with absolute pitch.
Your tech can get things very close though, and
hopefully explain what he's doing so you can
perform basic guitar maintenance yourself in the
future.  Also, consider that compensating for
poor intonation causes you to push and pull the
strings, engraining bad habbits that are difficult to break later.

My guitar teacher in college recommended the
following tuning method. IMPORTANT: It assumes
that your guitar is properly intonated from the
start, so that fretted notes all across the
fretboard are perfectly in tune, or as close as possible!

1. Tune your A string using an accurate reference
pitch from a tuning fork, keyboard, electronic tuner, tone generator, etc.

2. Fret your 4th string at the 7th fret (A) and
adjust the tuning of the 4th string until there
are no beats with the open 5th string.

3. Fret your 3rd string at the 2nd fret (A) and
adjust the tuning of the 3rd string until there
are no beats with the open 5th string.

4. Fret your 2nd string at the 10th fret (A) and
adjust the tuning of the 2nd string until there
are no beats with the open 5th string.

5. Fret your 1st string at the 5th fret (A) and
adjust the tuning of the 1st string until there
are no beats with the open 5th string.

6. Tune your low E string to the high E string so that there are no beats.

You will notice that this method gets one string
in tune with a reliable reference, and tunes the
other strings to it, using only octaves. If some
of those pairs are too hard to hear, you can
always use the 5th or 12th fret A string
harmonics, since these are still octave multiples.

Here's a great article explaining the basic tasks in setting up a guitar.
