Bad quality: I just don't get it!

2011-10-05 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
OK, what is all you all's trick? I've gone through about 3 boards since I got Protools, a Yamaha 10 channel, the Alesis Multi-Mix 4 USB, and finally the biggy which is an Alan Heath Z E D 10FX. For one, I cannot get PT to work worth anything with the Z E D 10FX. The board just seems for my

Take a listen to this. the vocals are not the best. I was pretty flat in places, but that's not the point. it sounds like I am not getting the full bottom nor the crisp brightness either that all mainstream people and most of you guys get. If you all at least can tell me where I'm going

Hey man. It doesn't matter what you use. That record you heard was done on a cheap $600 001 interface with a $200 mic. When I cut drums, I hired guys who were great engineers. They weren't big names, just some guys from a small town in Illinois. However, they knew how to dial the drums in.

Getting Midi to play

2011-10-05 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

You're not hearing anything because you didn't assign anything to the midi out on that track. Pro TOols doesn't automatically assign the midi to anything. You have to open an instrument or assign it to a keyboard's inputs. Kevin

You need to create a stereo instrument track. Put an instrument plugin on the insert of the instrument.. Then, set the midi output to that plugin. That is the basic way to do it.
