Re: Recording small narration, and splitting them into small files after editing.

[Ramy Moustafa]

Hi Marten and Slau:

Thanks for this very clear steps.
But, the steps I described are too long, are there any easier methods
to achieve this?

also, I was using the Noise gate in soar to reduce the noise then try
to remove the remaining issues.
is this ok to do in pro tools, or I must do another steps?

RE: Recording small narration, and splitting them into small files after editing.

[Martin (Punky) Sopart]

Hi Ramy!

Maybe add another step (3.5) after cleaning up the track using your arrow keys.

select the whole track by pressing Enter and than Shift+Option+Enter.
Press Command+F and the Fades Dialog for Batch Fades will pop up.
Just try the factory settings first bei clicking the ok button.
If you are not satisfied, undo the task and get into the same dialog again.
Now - before clicking ok - interact with the different settings.

Batch Fades will add fade-ins at the beginning of an audio clip, fade-outs at 
end and cross fades on overlapping audio clips.
The settings inside the dialog take effect regarding fade shapes, fading times 
etc.

Than continue with your step 4.

Best! / Martin

 With
 that in mind,it might be best to take the approach of keeping things on
 one
 track and exporting as needed. Still, you can even accomplish this with
 multiple tracks as long as you have markers set to locations. In other
 words, you can offline bounce two tracks from marker 3 to marker 4 where
 the
 first part of the audio is dry and the second half includes reverb or
 delay.
 If you set a range between markers 3 and 4 and bounce the track, you'll
 have
 a single file with material from both tracks. Otherwise, as I mentioned
 earlier, you can do all of this on one track. Ultimately, the process
 will
 essentially be the same, that is, selecting a range and bouncing.

Re: Recording small narration, and splitting them into small files after editing.

[Ramy Moustafa]

Hello SAlau:

Thanks so much, so the sequence to do this task is as follows:

1- Recording the Hole project on 1 track.
2- insert 2 or 3 tracks that has some extra reverb and delay according
to my needs.
3- using my down and up errows firstly to remove unwanted coughs, breathing etc.
4- copying each file from my original track to my other tracks that
contain the reverb an ddelay.
5- bounce,
is it ok, or do I need something else?

Hi Ramy,
In this case, there's no such thing as more or less professional. Either 
approach is viable. It all depends on what is needed in the end and which 
approach you feel more comfortable with.

 Hi Ramy,
 
 You cannot split files while recording. You can punch in and out while
 the
 transport is engaged but that will be quite problematic. You can set
 markers
 on the fly by simply pressing the Enter key on the num pad. If you're
 going
 to do that, you'll want to set the preference for auto-naming markers.
 To add reverb or delay to certain parts of the recording on a single
 track,
 you can do this in several ways. Each way has its advantages and
 disadvantages. You can send the track's output to a reverb track and a
 delay
 track and automate the send mutes. Given that you're still new to Pro
 Tools,
 I wouldn't recommend going the automation route yet. You can also use
 Audio
 suite to apply such effects to specific sections of the track. You'd have
 to
 make the selection (including space at the end for a reverb or delay
 tail,
 set the plug-ins' wet/dry balance (which you can preview) and apply the
 effect. You can also create a second and third track and move the
 desired

 other.
 Any clips on those tracks will have their respective effects while the
 original track will remain unaffected. Again, one can do this in several
 ways and, depending on what is needed, one can take several approaches.
 For
 example, if there will be future editing within the timeline, splitting
 the
 tracks adds a complication that requires grouping of tracks in order to
 keep
 things relatively lined up during the editing process. One needs to
 consider
 this when making the decision on how to proceed. Keeping everything on
 one
 track has its advantages as well but might require additional editing of
 voice overlapping reverb and delay tails. Before doing anything, do
 yourself
 a favor and duplicate the playlist on the track so that you don't lose
 your
 original clips.

Hi Slau:

Thanks so  much for this, but what is more professional, to put the
reverb and delay on the track itself, or to put each fx ina Bus and
insert it on the track wanted?

 Hi all:

 as you asked me to do, I force myself to leave sonar, to use Pro tools

 and, I can now learn by experience. studying, reading manual, etc.

 but, in these days, am recording some small narration for very small
 stories, the narrator was recording about 2 hours, after he recorded,
 don't know what to do, I use this tecnic to split the lon gwave into
 small files:
 I use the down and up errows, to edit and remove unwanted gledshes etc.
 my only problem that I faced is that, the client needs some files to
 be with reverb and others no, some with delay etc.
 so, what I did to finish my task, is that after editing, I took my
 long wave to sound forge, on windows, and I split the long file into
 small waves as requested.

 so my questions are as follows:
 1- is there a way to split the waves wile recording? I mean putting
 markers so,  when I finish I can split all waves between marks into
 seprat waves?
 2- can I add  effects to some of these files, others not, before
 exporting
 them?
 3- one of my friends  told me that I can use the num 3 on the Keypad
 to make pause  and continue recording, so, pro tools will add marks
 while recording, is it good tecnic, is it professional?

 Thanks

OK, this is a perfect example of how your approach will vary based upon your 
needs. You never mentioned that you'll be needing to export 100 files. With 
that in mind,it might be best to take the approach of keeping things on one 
track and exporting as needed. Still, you can even accomplish this with 
multiple tracks as long as you have markers set to locations. In other words, 
you can offline bounce two tracks from marker 3 to marker 4 where the first 
part of the audio is dry and the second half includes reverb or delay. If you 
set a range between markers 3 and 4 and bounce the track, you'll have a single 
file with material from both tracks. Otherwise, as I mentioned earlier, you can 
do all of this on one track. Ultimately, the process will essentially be the 
same, that is, selecting a range and bouncing.

Re: Recording small narration, and splitting them into small files after editing.

[Ramy Moustafa]

Hi Slau:
ok,  but, if I will put some waves on track 2, others on track 3, to
change the reverb or delay, how can I export all in seprat files? I
need to have like 100 file at the end, so, how will I export the 2
long waves into  small tracks?

Re: Recording small narration, and splitting them into small files after editing.

[Slau Halatyn]

Hi Ramy,

You cannot split files while recording. You can punch in and out while the 
transport is engaged but that will be quite problematic. You can set markers on 
the fly by simply pressing the Enter key on the num pad. If you're going to do 
that, you'll want to set the preference for auto-naming markers.
To add reverb or delay to certain parts of the recording on a single track, you 
can do this in several ways. Each way has its advantages and disadvantages. You 
can send the track's output to a reverb track and a delay track and automate 
the send mutes. Given that you're still new to Pro Tools, I wouldn't recommend 
going the automation route yet. You can also use Audio suite to apply such 
effects to specific sections of the track. You'd have to make the selection 
(including space at the end for a reverb or delay tail, set the plug-ins' 
wet/dry balance (which you can preview) and apply the effect. You can also 
create a second and third track and move the desired clips onto the other 
tracks and apply reverb to one and delay to the other. Any clips on those 
tracks will have their respective effects while the original track will remain 
unaffected. Again, one can do this in several ways and, depending on what is 
needed, one can take several approaches. For example, if there will be future 
editing within the timeline, splitting the tracks adds a complication that 
requires grouping of tracks in order to keep things relatively lined up during 
the editing process. One needs to consider this when making the decision on how 
to proceed. Keeping everything on one track has its advantages as well but 
might require additional editing of voice overlapping reverb and delay tails. 
Before doing anything, do yourself a favor and duplicate the playlist on the 
track so that you don't lose your original clips.
