Click and count off

2013-08-21 Thread Chris Norman
By all, I found out last night that you can set the count off value on pro tools by using the tab key to get to the box, and using the up and down arrow keys to modify its value. Thought I'd send this one in as it's something I've been trying to figure out for ages. Hope this helps

As for renaming a track, I typically do this from the edit window right after creating the track. interact with the track list table, and find the created track. Press voice over shift m, and r for rename, you may then need to press enter and you can type a name in for the track. As for the

TO rename tracks. Navigate to the tracklist table and interact with it. once in there you can use VO up and down arrows to navigate between tracks. VO+Shift+M will bring up a context menu for which rename will be an option on. Click on that to be able to rename the track. I wouldn't worry about

Hi, i have indeed a sub menu for the interface. In the interface submenu there's built-in mic and built-in input, nothing more. Should there be anything else there, and how do i get it in there? I have done as suggested yesterday and put in under setupperipherals the Projectmix and it's set to

Hi and thanks for the precise instructions. Just to clarify things, ... umm how to phrase this question, what do the audio input selectors in the tracks do? I'm beginning to think i confuse things here. I thought i had to specifically tell Pro tools what input on the Project mix i was supposed

The setting under playback engine tells pro tools what audio interface you want to use and which audio interface inputs and outputs to display. After selecting the the audio interface in play back engine, you then on the individual tracks in the input area under interface, select which inputs

Hi, nope you didn't, however there's something missing here, either in my head or in Pro Tools's, when i set the track audio input path i only see the computer, even if the control surface is set as audio playback manager. No idea why this is. Everything else in the control surface seem to work

My monitoring presets menu has mono, stereo, 5.1, etc. Still can't get it to stop monitoring. More of a problem is that anything which comes out of the Saffire seems to come out on all 6 outputs, making my outboard year kind of useless. Any one either got a configuration file I could steal?

Got my inputs sorted now, which leads me to yet another stupid newbie question
