Hi all:
With pro tools, I can, record, record another track, save a file, import wave,
incert new tracks, solo, mute.
But I still need to now:
How to deselect tracks, how to nuddge via keyboard not with surface because I
don’t have jug wheel, how to scrubb.
The most important thing for me is
Is there, anywhere, a Pro Tools getting started guide? Something that
explains clearly how to do things from a keyboard/accessibility point of
view? Something that guides you through importing, recording and editing
audio; working with midi; mastering, mixing, etc?

Not yet per sé, aside the PT documentation which is invaluable by the way, but
there will be a webinar class which I will be holding over the next 8 or so
weeks on the use of PT with Voiceover. We will start tomorrow evening at 7PM
eastern time. If you and others on the list can't attend
Hi Ramy,
Track selection:
Make sure you have Edit Follows Track Selection checked under the Options menu.
To move the insertion point down to another track, thus selecting the next
track, use Control-; (semicolon).
To move the insertion to the previous track, use Control-p.
You don't need to
OK, I do understand that there are quite a few questions here, but any help
would be appreciated with any of these.
First of all, I'd like to talk about punch in/punch outs. Sometimes, I'll be
recording a vocal track, be it lead, or backing, and I may hit a line a little
flat, or a little
Chris,
Go to the Transport window.
Click once on the Pre-roll amount. Assuming you're in bars and beats, type the
number 1 and press return. The Pre-roll amount will be one bar and Pre-roll
will automatically be enabled. The button appears to the left of the numeric
field you just entered.
Slau,
This isn't you at all, you did an excellent job explaining, but I must admit,
you went way over my head! I know you do audio stuff for a living, so it's not
gonna be quick, but I'm in no hurry. Would you be willing to make me an audio
demonstration of how this works? I'm sorry, but
Chris, for quick punchins like this, I just make sure that under the options
that quick punch is checked and then play the section you want and when you get
to the area you want to start recording at, press 3 on the num pad and your on
live and then stop as soon as your done. That is my way
Ramy, Slau gave you perfect instructions, make note of them and follow them to
the T.

That would be great, except that my mac's keyboard is all the way across the
room from where the mikes are being placed, and there's no way around that,
with the way my studio is setup.

Chris,
You specifically asked for step-by-step instructions and, when you request
something like that, it's going to sound complicated. It's not.
1. Select a range within which you wish to record.
2.Enable Pre/Post roll with Command-k and make sure that the pre and post roll
values in the
So, I'm confused. What do the pre and post roll values do/indicate, if not 0,
how do I determine what they should be set to, or does it really not honest
matter. Just pick a random number so's long as it isn't 0.

OK, since your keyboard is across the room, you're going to need enough pre
roll to be able to press record, walk over to your mic, put on headphones and
get ready to sing. How many bars do you think that'll be? 8? 10? Whatever you
think it should be, type that number into the Pre roll field.
After googling a bit:
These words are familiar to folks working on sound or video editing.
On a tape recorder in pause-recording mode, the pre-roll is the delay
between the moment the pause button is released and the moment the
recording actually starts. Similarly, the post-roll is the delay
Slau,
So, you said with the pre-roll how many bars? How do I calculate if I'm doing
hours minutes seconds frames, instead of bars, beats, ticks?

well, how long do you need to get ready to play?
If you want to convert between bars/beats and minutes/seconds, that
obviously depends on the tempo of your tune.

Shruggs,
That's not what I meant. I meant what does the numerical values represent?
In beats/bars it obviously represents bars. In hour minute seconds, what is
it representing?... Seconds? Minutes? or what?
