Re: I hate to do this, but...

2015-04-01 Thread Scott Chesworth
Just so we're clear about what's going on here, two more quotes.

First, we have I posted some questions this morning, but no one is
answerring.  I understand people have jobs, lives, and are busy.  I
know that.  I would have been willing to wait and be patient for a
response... I still am! willing to be patient.  My thing is, I'm
questioning if it's just people being busy, vs. it's people not
knowing the answer to my questions, which I hope isn't the case,
considerring how fundemental not to mention paramount of tasks they
were that I'm trying to accomplish.

Next, we have I'm having a few really bizarre issues, and I can't
seem to find anyone who has any clue what is going on. On a different
list.

I've got no interest in bitching at you. I have a bit of interest in
helping people including you, which is why, in case you haven't
noticed, I've so far been the only person willing to wade through the
diatribe and answer some of your questions.

This shouldn't have been posted here in the first place is my point.
12 hours isn't an unreasonable wait time for voluntary assistance. If
you want it quicker or you want step by steps, pay someone who has
knowledge for their time. Most of us are a pretty cheap date.

Apologies to the PT folks for the continuation of the thread on list.
For what it's worth, I'd have done the same if someone showed up on
RWP insinuating that the knowledge on PTAccess was inadequate, because
it's not the case.

 over there saying flat out, if you think you can help me, then go for it!

 Here's the exact quote from that message where I said this:

 Again, if someone's willing to work with me to pinpoint down my issues, then

nothing that couldn’t easily be fixed with some dot markers and a little

Re: What mac would you use when working in PT?

2015-04-01 Thread Nickus de Vos
It all depends on what you plan to do with PT.
Will you be recording a lot of tracks at once then mix using a lot of
plug-ins? Will you use a lot of virtual instruments?

Depending on what you want to do in PT you'll find that it's probably
not nececery to get a very powerfull machine, unless you have the
money to burn anyway then go all out.

If you have the 7000 Euros to spend on your rig then you might even
consider going with HDX hardware and a much smaller/less powerfull
Mac, but again all depends on what you want to use your rig for in the
end.

 Avid has a compatibility chart on their side and thats probably the place to
 get answers to this question. That being said general rules of thumb Pretty
 much any modern stock mack will get the job done minus maybe the air’s or
 least expensive mac mini. Processor wise i’d get an i7 if you can  and
 definitely max out ram. Get an SSD. 128GB will be fine as your boot drive
 Since you will be using a second drive for Pro Tools Sessions anyways. And
 last i looked fusion drives weren’t qualified for Pro Tools use vy Avid
 (consult the aforementioned compatibility list) so avoid those at the

Hi Slau,
It still doesn't work.
It becomes a bit confusing for me.
I loaded the session that the protools with speech boys provides with the edit 
tutorial.
When I make a selection in one of the tracks of this session and delete it it 
works fine. But when I add a new track and record something on it and then make 
a selection and try to delete it it doesn't work.
I explore botgh tracks but can't find any difference.
Do you understand whats's happening here?

Tom.

Hi tom,

One of two things might be happening:
1. Make sure you have track and edit selections linked as well as the edit and 
timeline linked. this is under the Options menu. It sounds like you might not 
actually have the track selected and/or the edit selection is not actually 
linked to the timeline.
2. You might not have waveforms being displayed. Make sure you see the word 
waveform in the track view of the Edit window.

Check those things for now.

you get it.

 Not quite a control serfice but almost, any of you using or used a
 Hotkey Matrix before?
 
 As I understand it's basically a keyboard and all keys have dedicated
 functions in PT, so there's no key with 2 or more functions by using
 modifier keys etc. I'm just wondering if it will be useful and whether
 it will be possible to memorise the layout of all keys.

 I will test this Myself soonly. If it works as good as the avid controlers,
 I let you know. The money aspect might be interesting. And why spend more

 if thats a QCon pro, its fine by me. I let you know what my findings are.
 Maybe others can have some advantige of this to.And if it might be so, that

 it is a fairly new product and has al the protocols, needed to work fine

 not the greatest. Further, taking a look at what U.s. retailers carry is a

RE: problem deleting selection

2015-04-01 Thread Tom Hessels
Hi Poppa,
Yes I selected the track.
I tried what you suggested but this also didn't work.
I think I had to start reading all the documentation.
It's always difficult to change from one program to another.
I've worked with cakewalk sonar for years and then you think that migrating 
Can't be so difficult. Stupid thought...
But I will still give it a try. I was very impressed by the possibility to make 
my own sounds in Ultra analog from Applied acoustics.
In the older days on winxp when using directixer this was also possible within 
sonar. But now you can only do this in sonar using synth rack view. And thas is 
very, very lot of work.

Re: problem deleting selection

2015-04-01 Thread Matt Diemert
Hello, I doubt having a demonstration copy install is your issue here. When I 
first started with ProTools it was as a demo and I don't recall us ever being a 
problem. If you're using ProTools 11, unselect every track in the project, 
using voice over . Then reselect only the track that you wish to delete 
material from. The fact that you can delete audio using the tutorials just 
makes me there is just a selection problem going on here. Feel free to write me 
privately and perhaps I can give you a step-by-step

RE: problem deleting selection

2015-04-01 Thread Poppa Bear
Tom, I was in the same boat, I migrated to PT after using Sonar for many years, 
and for about the first year I struggled with PT because I kept going back to 
Sonar, but at some point it all started to click and I have never looked back. 
I haven't fired up a Sonar rig for over a year or more now. I run a small 
project studio using PT and am glad I paid my dues. You will come to find that 
sometimes that it is just simply something so small, a check box or something 
making all of the difference for you, but when you figure it out you will feel 
a little silly that it was something so small. Here is something else to throw 
at you, if you copy/duplicate one of the tracks from the Pro Tools with speech 
session can you edit that one? I wonder if maybe something is going on when you 
create a new track. Also, have you attempted to import an audio track into that 
session and try and edit that one? Perhaps I can get some time to talk to you 
via Face Time or something today or tomorrow and attempt some basic trouble 
shooting. If so then leave me your phone number or Face time information. If 
you want you can Email it to me at heavens4r...@gmail.com
Take care

Subject: RE: problem deleting selection

Hi Slau,
It still doesn't work.
It becomes a bit confusing for me.
I loaded the session that the protools with speech boys provides with the edit 
tutorial.
When I make a selection in one of the tracks of this session and delete it it 
works fine. But when I add a new track and record something on it and then make 
a selection and try to delete it it doesn't work.
I explore botgh tracks but can't find any difference.
Do you understand whats's happening here?

Tom.

Hi tom,

One of two things might be happening:
1. Make sure you have track and edit selections linked as well as the edit and 
timeline linked. this is under the Options menu. It sounds like you might not 
actually have the track selected and/or the edit selection is not actually 
linked to the timeline.
2. You might not have waveforms being displayed. Make sure you see the word 
waveform in the track view of the Edit window.

Check those things for now.

HTH,

Slau

 Hi,
 I’m migrating from Sonar to Pro tools and that results in a lot of dumb 
 questions.
 I.ve already learned a lot from podcasts from Kevin and pt with speech.
 But there’s still a problem with deleting a selection.
 I’m selecting a peace of audio using the up and down arrow keys.
 When pressing the spacebar I hear the selection. But when I press the 
 backspace nothing happens accept when hitting the spacebar I hear the audio 
 from start point of selection to the end of the track.
 What am I missing?
 Tom.

Interesting comments Mac. I don't have any experience using a control surface 
with Protools, and am only commmenting about what I've read. I'll try my BCF 
controller soon and see if I have any luck controling plugins with it. I look 
forward to hearing how you get on with automting plugins with the surface when 
you get it.

 As I understand it's basically a keyboard and all keys have dedicated

Re: Control Surface Recommendations

2015-04-01 Thread TheOreoMonster
You are confusing the Hot Key Metrix with the Editor Keys pro Tools keyboard. 
The Editors Key Pro Tools keyboard is a standard computer keyboard with the Pro 
Tools hotKeys printed on each key along with the the normal letters of the 
keyboard. Its basically a cheat sheet for a sighted person so they won’t have 
to remember  all the keyboard shortcuts.

The hot key matrix is a controller that only has buttons and each of pro tools 
functions are assigned to a button so they can be done in a single button 
press. i think the hot key matrix has something like 145 or something buttons 
on it.

proper method for dealing with markers in Pro Tools 11 when working with elastic audio and using the quantize function

2015-04-01 Thread Nick Gawronski
Hi, I am working on a class assignment that requires me to quantize 
drums to the grid using the click track.  I have messed around with the 
quantize functions but when my instructor saw the project they said that 
there were way to many markers after setting the view for use with 
elastic audio and I did the quantize infront of them and they said the 
drums were not on the grid.  I know about the option numpad 5 command 
but how using voiceover do you go about setting the values properly to 
quantize properly?  I even went as far as to call Avid support and asked 
them if they could remote into my system and be my eyes for helping me 
out with this issue and they said they did understand about the markers 
but they don't teach usage of the software and could offer no 
suggestions as to how I can complete this assignment accessibley or who 
I could contact to help me either do this with voiceover or just be my 
eyes and I could explain what I needed done and we could work together 
to get this done.  What at this point is my best option or is there 
someone directly at Avid I can contact to help me out get things 
properly setup in this session so these markers are properly lined up so 
when I do the quantize option the drums go to the grid?  Nick Gawronski

Hi Brian, we've just been discussing this very control surface in another 
conversation on this mailing list. I've got a BCF but I haven't been able to 
try using it with ProTools yet. I should be able to give this ago in the next 
two weeks. I know that you can definitely automate volume and pan, but I am 
unsure about automating plug-ins with it yet. I shall report back when I know 
more.
