Flo Tools Templates and Plug-in Monitor Questions

[Atreyu Dunson]

Hello! My name is Atreyu.

My first question is about Flo Tools templates: when I am on ProTools and 
I'm setting up a session, the Flo Tools template is not in my Selection of 
Templates. Where would I locate this template on my computer once I've 
downloaded Flo Tools?

My next question is about the EQ 7-band and the Plug-in Monitors: for some 
reason, when I upload the EQ 7-band and I turn on the Plug-in Monitors, why 
can I not navigate through the parameters? And does this issue have to do 
with not setting up the Flo Tools templates initially?

Thank y'all for any responses!

Flo tools plugin templates for UAD, Wave, Sountoys

['Luca Cascino' via Pro Tools Accessibility]

Hi Gudy, 

I've just instulled FLO TOOLS and I think it's huge help for visual imapred 
espcially if, like me, don't have a control surface.
I am just new to it so I am memorizing the shortcuts and learnin its 
potential.

Said so I've read there is a way to map pluigin views and interact with 
with parameters plugin just like I can do with Eq 7 etc

Anyone know if someone has alredy create a plugin template view of the 
folloing plugins?

Re: Macro for creating plugin view templates

[Slau Halatyn]

Yep and, if you tend to write JAVA in other applications (as some of us do), it 
needs to be set on a system level so that's my point of reference. Glad you're 
all set.
Best,
Slau

 Hi,
 
 1) In the demo for the Plugin View feature of Flo Tools, Slau mentions a

Hi Slau,

Thanks a lot for that tip, there is also such an option in the Edit menu of 
TextEdit, so I've properly changed them both. ;)

Re: Macro for creating plugin view templates

[Slau Halatyn]

Hi John,
What's important is that they are not smart quotes but straight quotes. This 
option is under the Keyboard pane of System Preferences in the Text tab. 
Uncheck "Use Smart Quotes and Dashes" and make sure straight quotes are 
selected from the pop-up menu.
I think in the demo mp3 for Plug-in Views, I mention cutting the first line 
from the pasted text to use in the naming of the document. At any rate, the 
first line of the text file would start with:
{"View etc.
Glad it's working for you.

Re: Macro for creating plugin view templates

[John André Lium-Netland]

Hi Slau,

Problem solved! Quite strange in fact, but as soon as I started to edit 
existing text in a working plugin view, each quote on the same line turned into 
a double quotation mark. Not sure if this happens because I use TextEdit, even 
though I make sure the document is plain text with command-shift-T before 
saving it. Anyways, those double quotation marks made it impossible to use the 
documents as plugin views. As soon as those were fixed, the plugin views worked 
as a charm in Pro Tools! I suspect this is one of the Smart features of 
TextEdit, that I can turn off, I’ll look into that now. Also, I found that even 
though the template adds the name of the plugin in the top line of the 
document, you’ll have to remove this line to make the document work.

Best,
John André

Re: Macro for creating plugin view templates

Hi John,
The default unicode works fine for me. Keep in mind that JASON text files are 
extremely unforgiving with formatting and characters. There might be something 
else going on. If you have trouble getting it to work, feel free to send the 
text file to me and I can proof-read it.

Re: Macro for creating plugin view templates

[John André Lium-Netland]

Hi Jimmy and Slau,

Thanks for the feedback! I’ve started to experiment with this, and found that 
using TextEdit when crating the documents won’t work unless you choose to save 
the plain text document as Unicode UTF 16. The default setting of Unicode UTF 8 
resulted in files that didn’t work as plugin views. Next challenge is that even 
though I create each line with all the correct characters, I still have 
problems, but I’ll keep on experimenting until it works. ;) I see that this not 
will work well with menues like those in Kontakt and Komplete Kontrol, since 
it’s not easy to know if the menu is open or not, but for simple pressing of 
buttons or to enter text values in text boxes, it will work just fine for now. 
For menues like those in Wave plugins, where VoiceOver read the content as soon 
as the menu is triggered, it will also work fine. Of course, I’ll install VOCR 
2.0 when I have a newer OS sometime in the near future, since it’s a better 
solution as far as I understand.

Best,
John André

Re: Macro for creating plugin view templates

[jimmie smith]

Hi John! The actual macro is not something you download from dropbox. It is a 
macro built in to keyboard maestro. Load the plug-in that you want to create a 
view for, go to your extras menu by pressing VO M twice, find keyboard maestro, 
click on it, and then go down until you hear it say something like create 
plug-in view template. I Learned how to create these macros listening to the 
same file that you have referred to. Around the 19 minute mark, he will start 
explaining this process. Hope this helps.

Re: templates

[Mike Lockett]

Steve,

First when you save as a session template,
theres an option to save media.
Uncheck that box.

Then import session data.
Select the PTX file of the song you want to import tracks/media from.
When the import window opens,
V-O right, to tracks.

enter act with it and V-O right, to ‘source-destination’,
 interact with it.
choose the source track in the column to the left,
On the right you will see the destination track.

click in the combo box, you will be given the choice of “none, New track, and 
the tracks of the destination song.

Down arrow to your desired track, select it.

Stop interacting with tracks and hit OK…
This should do it.

Re: templates

Hi Steve & Poppa,
What you need to do is to import session data from the file menu.
I do this all the time when mixing an album to maintain continuity.
In a nut shell, import session data from  the mix you have finished into the 
next mix "song" your about to start working on and bang you have all the same 
settings to start with!
Give a call if you need me to walk you through it for the first time. :)

RE: templates

[Poppa Bear]

Hello Steve, when you go to your file menu you will find save as template and 
when you save it you can name it and choose the location that you would like to 
save it in. At that point when you want to use that template you would just 
find it, click on it and you would be able to name it and choose the location 
for the new session with that template. As far as importing tracks into the 
template, you may have to just import them, then copy each imported track and 
paste it onto the tracks that you have bussed out already. You may be able to 
select all of the tracks in the mix window and when you import the new tracks 
they may populate over the tracks in the session that you have selected. I am 
not sure if that is an option, but it seems like it would be a common sense 
approach. Other than that you would have to re rout each track that you import 
to the bus you want it on, or group them together. Perhaps somebody else has a 
working recommendation. HTH

Hi Poppa,

About Templates,

When I want to use my out board "hardware" devices, like my Eventide   H3000 
Harmonizer,  or my STUDIO TECHNOLOGIES ECOPLATE III "Reverb plate". 

http://platereverb.com/

I just import Session data from  a pro tools session template I made up that 
only contains the tracks needed to access the outboard hardware devices already 
hard wired in to my patch bay.

This makes it quicker than pulling up my patch bay chart and configuring the 
I/o for my outboard gear each time! :)

 

Time is money!   ;)

Just do the same for the "software" Plugins, side of it.

Talk soon

Remember;

 

Behind every creative mix, Theres also the CREATOR!

YMMV

Hi, it's easy to get Stutter Edit working with Midi in Protools. Put 

Stutter edit on an audio track as an insert. Create a new midi track. 

Set the Input to your midi controler, and the output to Stutter edit. 

I think you need to arm the midi track so that it is record enabled. 

YOu can trigger the various jestures and effects with your midi 

keyboard. The stutters are synced to your project tempo, so you can 

change the tempo of your project to change the tempo of the stutters.

 

 

 

 

 

As for Windows: I know that there is a hotspot clicker set for Stutter 

edit which I know you can use with Sonar, created by someone called Steve 
Stamer.

Probably best to contact the midimag list for more information on that.

 

 

 

I'm going to work on developing stutter edit accessibility some more 

using keyboard maestro.

Hi Poppa,
About Templates,
When I want to use my out board "hardware" devices, like my Eventide   H3000 
Harmonizer,  or my STUDIO TECHNOLOGIES ECOPLATE III "Reverb plate". 
http://platereverb.com/
I just import Session data from  a pro tools session template I made up that 
only contains the tracks needed to access the outboard hardware devices already 
hard wired in to my patch bay.
This makes it quicker than pulling up my patch bay chart and configuring the 
I/o for my outboard gear each time! :)

Time is money!   ;)
Just do the same for the "software" Plugins, side of it.
Talk soon
Remember;

Behind every creative mix, Theres also the CREATOR!
YMMV

Just an FYI, Chuck, the same options are there in 5.1. They might've added one 
or two extra things.

Re: Track Templates

[Slau Halatyn]

Hey Frank,

Yes, you can do this for multiple tracks. Also, you can have any number in that 
template and import only the ones you want. Send assignments are preserved as 
well. The only thing that might not apply are IO path names which can be 
imported separately anyway.

HTH,

Re: Track Templates

[Chuck Reichel]

Hi Bryan,
Just pull up a blank session or songwriter template for instance and  
configure your bass track and save the session as  a  pt template.
Now when you launch a new pt session just go to the file menu and from  
the import sub menu chose import ""session data shift option i" then  
you navigate to any session you want to bring a track in to pt and WOW  
what a ;bunch of import options that i never saw in pt 5.1! LOL
I thing page 141 in the main reff manual   or there abouts has the  
info about pt templates your looking for also.
I have been importing special customized tracks with pt 5.1 for quite  
a while.

Hope this  helps.

Is it possible to set many tracks in one shot?  It would be great if I could 
get the whole drum kit bass and vocals and then just add the guitars and keys 
as needed.  Does this work for sends as well?

Thanks

Re: Track Templates

[Slau Halatyn]

Hey bryan,

I think this should work for you:

Create a session template by creating a session and creating a track with your 
desired plug-ins and choose "Save as Template" from the file menu. In a new 
session, simply use the file>Import>Session Data… command to import tracks from 
the template. This will work for any track in any session. be aware, however, 
that you have choices for copying source media or not. Also, I'm not sure but, 
I think if you import a track from another session, the resulting files might 
be mapped to the disk allocation of the session from which the track was 
imported. It might take a little experimentation to verify this but, 
essentially, that's what you need to do to get a pre-defined signal chain into 
a new session quickly.

HTH,

Re: Track Templates

[Slau Halatyn]

Hey Bryan,

You can modify the default templates and save them with your preferred 
plug-ins. Actually, you don't even need to modify existing templates, you can 
create a session from scratch and save it as a template. I'll have to check one 
thing first before I comment further.

Track Templates

[Bryan Smart]

I've been looking and looking, but have come up empty on this one. Hope that 
someone here can help.

In Sonar, I use track templates all of the time to add groups of tracks with 
preconfigured signal chains in to my projects. Logic and GarageBand have 
channel strip settings, which do the same sort of thing. Even Reaper has track 
templates.

However, I can't find this feature in Pro Tools. I know that you can have
