RE: APOGEE Thunderbolt & monitor decoupling

[Andre Jarreau]

I'm pretty much in the same boat.  A quality mid-range price interface is 
desired.

Ok, I hear you. What did you think of the Claret 8PreX
? I am not searching for the holy grail, but I do want a quality mid-range 
priced interface and am open to everyone's thoughts.

I would have to go digging and figure out which of the projects were done on 
that. I probably did a lot more mixing at that time than recording. The reasons 
I got rid of it is I realize I didn’t care for the “analog hype”, as in I 
wasn’t using a lot of the UAD 1176/LA2a//etc but I did end up using a lot of 
the plug in alliance stuff like the Maag and SPL stuff. Native Plug In Alliance 
stuff went on sale more frequently and at better prices than the UAD versions. 
Also I could use a lot more without running out of processing power. So not 
being able to use Unison and not using a lot of the UAD exclusive plugins I 
decided to get rid of it. I do still have some plug ins in my account that I 
intended to get a satellite card to use at some point but I still haven’t 
gotten around to that yet. 
I eventually ended up with the Clarett 8PreX but no longer have it as I moved 
and had to downsize.

Allow me to clarify what I meant by not worth the money. Didn’t mean they 
weren’t great sounding interfaces. More What I meant was they weren’t worth the 
money as in cost. They are more expensive (and also requires you to upgrade to 
a ProTools HD license)  and so I don’t consider them a value compared to the 
current ben 3rd party interfaces that are in the same ballpark Latency wise and 
work fine with non HD Pro Tools. Unless you are managing large film projects or 
something like that, a modern computer and modern Thunderbolt interface are 
more than plenty sufficient for even big projects now, especially for music 
only projects. And I believe, given that this is a mailing list for blind users 
thats what most of us are dealing with.

Just last week when I was doing a remote desk top with an UAD tech, and

This list is a great place to be!  I’m a singer songwriter acoustic guitarist.  
Which means I teach voice and guitar for a living and call myself an artist who 
only writes number one hits.  When I play guitar and sing at home the neighbors 
call and ask me to change stations.  

 

As a singer I’m somewhere between Robert Plant and Barney Fife; mostly Fife.

SSD’s load faster and sample libraries operate at their best wen they have 
quick access to read /load the data they need to be playing back in real time 
while you are playing the instrument. Recording is writing  to the drive and 
your standard HDD is plenty fast these days to handle the writing of recorded 
files. Also HDD’s are a lot cheaper per Gigabyte than SSD’s are.

Hi Andre,

 

It's perfectly normal to use the second Thunderbolt port for things like 
drives. Some folks use peripherals like Thunderbolt Docks to gain multiple 
format I/O for more flexibility. It's definitely recommended to use a separate 
drive for the system and recording/media. If you're using an SSD, it's not as 
critical to use yet another separate drive for samples but, if you have the 
resources, it's definitely not a bad idea.

Hope that helps,

Slau

Interesting question.  I have two TB ports on my Mac.  One for Audio interface 
and I thought the other for external drives.  Is this a waste of an TB port?

 

Secondly.  Is it true it is best to have PT and all other associated recording 
software on one drive with a dedicated recording drive.  Mac software being on 
the internal drive.

 

Third.  Should the midi sound library be on it’s own drive.

 

Be patient with the newbee.

I got that one from Sweetwater. It is a great drive Nate  you will enjoy it. I 
have had it as long as I have been on this Protools list so I guess that’s 
around four or five years never a problem. It runs for days or weeks.

Hi Nate,

I've had great experiences with both Western Digital and seagate drives. In 
every case, they were either seventy-two hundred or ten thousand rpm drives for 
the HDD models. I've used the same brands for the SSD drives for sample 
libraries but not for recording. I've never used them via USB, although these 
days, USB 3 is plenty fast. Thus far, I've used 1 terabyte drives but now 
looking into eight or ten terabyte models for HDD. As always, SSDs are crazy 
expensive when getting into those capacities. If this is for recording, 7200

Hello Chuck,

I took your advice and sent him an email. Below is a copy of my communication.

 

Hello Scott,

Today I picked up the UA 8P black face. I am blind and use Voice Over on the 
Mack in order to interact with controls within the Mack environment. Though 
Protools, Slate, waves, Sound Toys and a myriad of other plugin manufactures 
are accessible with Voice Over, the UA interface is not.

To my knowledge this is not the first time this has been brought to the 
attention of your company. I would like to know if any thought has been given 
to helping your blind users  start to be able to access the full functions and 
features of this software? Myself along with many other blind engineers depend 
on making a living through our project studios and hope that as we support your 
company, you can find a way to try and support us.

Feel free to contact me, I would love to start this conversation. For all we 
know, it may take very little to make the software interface accessible, this 
would make a very significant difference for blind users. I spent the last 
month going back and forth between Apogee, Focusrite and others and after 
dozens of hours trying to choose a product, I spent my money with you guys. 
Please afford me the opportunity to actually be able to use the great features 
in this unit.

I hope that you have a great holiday season,

Think you are confusing your brands there. The Apogee elements do not have any 
knobs or buttons on them. So you would have to use the iOS app, (free) or get 
the apogee element control,  a  USB controller for the element interface ($199) 
or use Logic where it can be controlled from the channel strip as well. The 
Clarett would require the iOS app the exception being the Clarett 8PreX. The 
8PreX has enough buttons and knobs on it that you won’t need the iOS app as 
much. The Satellite is for the UAD  system..UAD plug ins run off their DSP 
chips instead of using your computer’s CPU. This is why you have to have a UAD 
Apollo, (their line of audio interfaces which also have some of their DSP on 
board) or a UAD satellite card (just a card with DSP power to run their plug 
ins only and has no I/O like an audio interface would.). In order to use their 
plug ins.  The Apollo mixer is not accessible which Is why I had suggested if 
someone  wants to use UAD plug ins just get one of their satellite cards and 
get a different interface like  one of the apogee element series. Thats 
probably where your confusion came in that you need satellite card to use one 
of the Apogee elements. Hope this clears everything up.

True.  But even for the size market we represent.  If the fix is relatively

mention the various DAW accessibility list serves and that people on the lists

RE: For UA oppolo users: potentially huge increase in accessiblity with soft tube controler

[Andre Jarreau]

Just got off the phone with a distributer for SoundTube and Apollo.  He said 
the new Console One is now called Console Mark II and has complete control over 
over an Apollo interface and plugins.  

 

He didn’t know about VoiceOver.  He did say It can control the DAW to some 
extent.  He thought a large percentage but didn’t say what percentage.

 

My feeling is that the Console Mark II and an Apollo quad core is a good fit 
for PT and a Mac. Though don’t know how well it will play with FlowTools.

Hi folks,

 

I had an email exchange with softube's support about six months ago. At that 
time they didn’t believe that there product would be accessible. I tried to 
obtain a demo through them, which they declined. I suppose maybe we could get 
some help in obtaining a demo from the Sweetwater crew? Let me know where you

Console one was made to control some of the soft tube plug ins and the UAD plug 
in and now the UAD console. I don’t know how much functionality it has outside 
of those areas as in if it can be use to control the DAW as well. Also It seems 
PreSonus took some additional steps to allow some functionality with pro tools 
in the fader port 8, that you wouldn’t normally get with a non Avid/ProTOols 
controller, so you may still be interested in the Fader Port. Speaking of which 
zounds has the fader port 8 for $100 off today.

Flo Tools is a non issue here. Flo Tools is a set of scripts to provide some 
additional keyboard shortcut and spoken feedback for voice over users. Flo 
Tools will not  have any control over any audio interfaces. Also short of using 
one of Avid branded control surfaces, 3rd party control surfaces are by 
definition Limited by comparison with what they can do in Pro Tools. This is 
probably why they couldn’t speak to what extent it could control the DAW. So 
while The Soft Tube  Console One surface can make use of controlling UAD and 
Soft tube plug in’s in Protools, which I imagine will be a great out of the box 
experience if the console one comes set up to work with  those plug ins 
automatically, I don’t see this increasing accessibility in the UAD console 
application. The UAD console application when last I used it just showed up as 
a blank screen to VoiceOver. So even though you can change the values of 
parameters with the Console one, unless VO is able to see and read out those 
values being adjusted, there will still be no way to know what values are being 
changed.And that doesn’t even begin to address how you would select channels 
and load plug ins onto said channels in the UAD console to record through if 
the whole thing shows up as a blank screen to VoiceOver. I think the console 
one is intended to speed workflow for those that can already see the screen so  
they don’t have to  fiddle with a keyboard or mouse to adjust values, but with 
current data/knowledge I don’t see how it can resolve the accessibility issue.  
The only other way I see being able to take advantage of UAD’s unison 
technology short of Universal Audio making the UAD console accessible, is if 
they allow for when you instantiate a  plug in inside of the DAW, that it too 
can trigger the Unison changes in the Preamp. Latency is low enough  now on 
thunderbolt interfaces and the plug ins are already running off their DSP chips 
so they won’t be adding any additional CPU hit. Until they fix this problem, 
PreSonus, Apogee, Focusrite and others have a host of comparable quality 
Thunderbolt  interfaces that lets you track through plugs ins while recording 
due to having sub 2ms of latency. Waves, Brainworks and other high end Plug in 
makers also have comparable software emulations of a lot of the same classic 
analog hardware on UAD’s platform. I feel we have options, so vote with your 
wallets.

Very interesting.  it is my newbee understanding with the Console Mark II that 
after installation and and initialization all loaded plugins are recognized 
automatically and choosing which plugin is easily done.  

 

If I am correct the Apollo has a free software download that allows greater 
control by the Mark II.  So the Mark II can be handled by listening and turning 
knobs as you say.  I feel there is something to this 
controller-interface-software combination.  However I might be as right as 
wrong can be, dunno yet.  

 

Really looking forward to finding out what Slau and Nate will learn from their 
contacts who have tested the Mark II with VO.

Yes the goal of the Console one (the hardware control surface) is so that 
engineers won’t have to look at the screen. However in the UAD Console (the 
software emulating a mixer interface for the UAD Apollo audio interface) one 
would first need to use a mouse to select a blank plug in slot and load a plug 
into said slot. Once a plug in is loaded and selected,  One can use the Console 
one (hardware control surface) to  change the parameters in the loaded plug in. 
 Because they are adjusting the knobs from a hardware surface, they won’t have 
to look at the screen and can close their eyes and adjust until things sound 
right. Given that so far there is no VoiceOver support in the UAD Console 

(the software emulating a mixer interface for the UAD Apollo audio interface) 
we still have to figure out a way to get the plug in loaded into a blank slot 
on a given channel , before we can start changing it’s parameters with the 
Console One (hardware control surface). This is why I don’t force the Console 
one (hardware control surface) changing the game as far as allowing us to use 
the UAD Console. In pro tools this won’t be an issue as  the pro tools mixer is 
accessible so we can load a plug in into a blank slot there and change the 
parameters with the Console one (Hardware control surface). On Nov 30, 2017, at

Hi folks,

 

I had an email exchange with softube's support about six months ago. At that 
time they didn’t believe that there product would be accessible. I tried to 
obtain a demo through them, which they declined. I suppose maybe we could get 
some help in obtaining a demo from the Sweetwater crew? Let me know where you 
end up with this please.

Here is a little snip that I pulled up, it wasn’t exactly what I read 
yesterday, but gives the general idea.

“What do I Need to use UAD Plug-Ins With Console 1? 

Apart from the Console 1, you need a UAD Accelerator (Satellite or UAD-2 PCIe 
card) or an Apollo interface, and you need to own the Console 1 ready UAD

plug-in you want to use. With that in place, it's plug and play. The Console 1 
system will automatically identify the Console 1 ready plug-ins (both UAD

and Softube) that are installed on your system, and they will be pre-mapped for 
you. Just open them from within the Console 1 system and mix away”

The way the UAD software works wen last I used it, it installed all the UAD 
plug ins, and used your authorization file to see which one are authorized to 
your account. So even in Pro Tools, unless you sort through and hide the ones 
you do not have authorizations for you will have to scroll through a lot of 
plug ins to find the ones you want. When you load a plug in you don’t have an 
authorization for it will prompt you to purchase it or authorize a demo ( a 
process that is not accessible btw). I say that to say this. UAD has about 100 
plug ins in their arsenal alone, So even if the Console one hardware had the 
means of  allowing one to choose a plug in to load to a blank slot in the UAD 
console software, one would still have to cycle through a long list to select 
the plug in to load. And if the UAD console software still shows up as blank to 
VoiceOver, We still won’t be able to select plug ins since there will be no 
spoken feedback. I’d love to be proven wrong here and have this all be 
accessible, I still have plug ins collecting dust in my UAD account I’d like to 
use. But unless the UAD console  software is now visible to voiceover somewhat 
(which btw anyone who has a UAD Apollo and running the latest version of the 
software can answer) We are still in the same boat.

If I am correct the Apollo has a free software download that allows greater

Yes the goal of the Console one (the hardware control surface) is so that 
engineers won’t have to look at the screen. However in the UAD Console (the 
software emulating a mixer interface for the UAD Apollo audio interface) one 
would first need to use a mouse to select a blank plug in slot and load a plug 
into said slot. Once a plug in is loaded and selected,  One can use the Console 
one (hardware control surface) to  change the parameters in the loaded plug in. 
 Because they are adjusting the knobs from a hardware surface, they won’t have 
to look at the screen and can close their eyes and adjust until things sound 
right. Given that so far there is no VoiceOver support in the UAD Console 

(the software emulating a mixer interface for the UAD Apollo audio interface) 
we still have to figure out a way to get the plug in loaded into a blank

Hi all, 

 

Not a UA interface user myself but thought  I should post this given recent 
discussions on interfaces. 

 

At first glance it seems a 500 buvk inbestment in soft tube's controler could 
open up physical control of many funvtions of the oppolo which are not yet 
accessible with boice over.

Please note I have no hands experience with these products, though O am a fan 
of the 2 soft tube plugins I own.

RE: What external hard drives are being used?

[Andre Jarreau]

Almost there.  I have a Mac book Pro and waiting for Black Friday sales for TB 
external drives.  I’m learning how to use the Mac before loading PT.

 

If Samsung SSD’s are good for sample libraries, is there a preferred TB HDD for 
recording you might suggest.

SSD’s load faster and sample libraries operate at their best wen they have 
quick access to read /load the data they need to be playing back in real time 
while you are playing the instrument. Recording is writing  to the drive and 
your standard HDD is plenty fast these days to handle the writing of recorded 
files. Also HDD’s are a lot cheaper per Gigabyte than SSD’s are.

Hi Andre,

 

It's perfectly normal to use the second Thunderbolt port for things like 
drives. Some folks use peripherals like Thunderbolt Docks to gain multiple 
format I/O for more flexibility. It's definitely recommended to use a separate 
drive for the system and recording/media. If you're using an SSD, it's not as 
critical to use yet another separate drive for samples but, if you have the 
resources, it's definitely not a bad idea.

Hope that helps,

Hi Nate,

I've had great experiences with both Western Digital and seagate drives. In 
every case, they were either seventy-two hundred or ten thousand rpm drives for 
the HDD models. I've used the same brands for the SSD drives for sample 
libraries but not for recording. I've never used them via USB, although these 
days, USB 3 is plenty fast. Thus far, I've used 1 terabyte drives but now 
looking into eight or ten terabyte models for HDD. As always, SSDs are crazy 
expensive when getting into those capacities. If this is for recording, 7200 
rpm HDDs are plenty fast and you can pick them up for around seventy dollars.

Agreed.  Having said all that if like me you are using Pro Tools with a single 
drive for samples and recording then a good SSD such as the Samsung T3 1TB or 
Samsung EVO or pro are great options.

SSD’s load faster and sample libraries operate at their best wen they have 
quick access to read /load the data they need to be playing back in real time 
while you are playing the instrument. Recording is writing  to the drive and 
your standard HDD is plenty fast these days to handle the writing of recorded 
files. Also HDD’s are a lot cheaper per Gigabyte than SSD’s are.

Hi Andre,

 

It's perfectly normal to use the second Thunderbolt port for things like 
drives. Some folks use peripherals like Thunderbolt Docks to gain multiple 
format I/O for more flexibility. It's definitely recommended to use a separate 
drive for the system and recording/media. If you're using an SSD, it's not as 
critical to use yet another separate drive for samples but, if you have the 
resources, it's definitely not a bad idea.

Hope that helps,

Slau

I was more saying same brands for TB drives. But also see my other point that 
even though the TB or USB enclosure may have another brand on it the actual HDD 
inside of the external enclosure is mostly likely gonna be a WesternDigital (or 
a company owned by western digital) or a Seagate drive. So any highly rated 
drive should be sufficient.

Hi Steve,

Not true!

I just went through this last week with a uad tech.

I had them do a teem viewer session and after the latest uad software install I 
had the tech remove every single plug that I didn't own leaving only the plugs 
I got with my Apollo duo.

The tech who I know from his Avid days is the one who suggested that the soft 
tube controller   might be a solution.

I do this every time uad brings out a new software version so when I'm booting 
in to a pt hdx session I don't get those uad dialogues which come up if you 
don't own the uad  plug! :)

Until some one gets their hands and VO! ears on the unit the verdict is still 
out!

ps keep emailing uad the steady drip is needed!

ps ps this is how you spell Apollo so we don't look like uninformed Apollo UA 
users! :)

The way the UAD software works wen last I used it, it installed all the UAD 
plug ins, and used your authorization file to see which one are authorized to 
your account. So even in Pro Tools, unless you sort through and hide the ones 
you do not have authorizations for you will have to scroll through a lot of 
plug ins to find the ones you want. When you load a plug in you don’t have an 
authorization for it will prompt you to purchase it or authorize a demo ( a 
process that is not accessible btw). I say that to say this. UAD has about 100 
plug ins in their arsenal alone, So even if the Console one hardware had the 
means of  allowing one to choose a plug in to load to a blank slot in the UAD 
console software, one would still have to cycle through a long list to select 
the plug in to load. And if the UAD console software still shows up as blank to 
VoiceOver, We still won’t be able to select plug ins since there will be no 
spoken feedback. I’d love to be proven wrong here and have this all be 
accessible, I still have plug ins collecting dust in my UAD account I’d like to 
use. But unless the UAD console  software is now visible to voiceover somewhat 
(which btw anyone who has a UAD Apollo and running the latest version of the 
software can answer) We are still in the same boat.

If I am correct the Apollo has a free software download that allows greater

knobs as you say.  I feel there is something to this 
controller-interface-software combination.  However I might be as right as

Really looking forward to finding out what Slau and Nate will learn from their

BR1600-CD

[Andre Jarreau]

Hi guys,

 

I am considering the BR1600-CD studio in a box to record tracks with;
especially since it's portable.  Boss doesn't make it any more but they can
still be found.

 

If I go this route then I would not need an audio interface.  But.  Would a
surface controller be needed?  One like the Softube Console one Mark II.

 

Waste of time? Money? Thoughts?

RE: BR1600-CD

Was told a few months ago the 1600 might be accessible since it had knobs and 
such.  I was told the menu window is a one line display with about eight 
options to select from.  Thought at the time was it wouldn’t take much to get 
used to.  A touring pro told me about it.  Though the touring pro is sighted he 
said menu wise it is very simple.

 

Does anyone on the list use a BR1600-CD?

Unless you can play with one before hand or get one with a good return policy, 
personally I wouldn’t go that route. The problem is those things as I remember 
it has a lot of deeper menu options and those things aren’t self voicing. So 
unless you can play with one to see what limitations you would be working 
within, a laptop and a small interface would probably be the more accessible 
portable rig for us. You can still  treat a DAW like a “tape Machine” if you 
want to. It’s up to you how complex  you make it.

APOGEE Thunderbolt & monitor decoupling

[Andre Jarreau]

Hi List,

 

I am trying to find out if an APOGEE thunderbolt Element 46 is accessible
using FlowTools-PT on a Mac Book Pro.  Or is some kind of accessibility
plugin needed.

 

Also trying to find out if monitor de-coupling stands are a good idea to
have for mixing down a project.

 

Thanks A to Z in advance.

RE: APOGEE Thunderbolt & monitor decoupling

I have been looking at Iphones; and if I get one.  Then the APOGEE thunderbolt 
Element 46 would be accessible?

I will be running guitar and bass direct into the audio interface.  Traps and 
percussion, hornes on occasion, midi keyboards  and of course vocals.  
Condenser mics will be mostly used.

If you do not have an iOS device to control the device accessibly, then perhaps 
consider an interface that has some hardware buttons on it so you won’t really 
need to use its control software.  For example if you need to enable phantom 
power or switch an input from line level to hi-z consider an interface that has 
physical buttons for these features. If you don’t have a Condensor mic that 
requires phantom power or plan to record an instrument like guitar or Bass 
directly and also don’t plan to do any complicated routing of audio you 
probably won’t need to ever worry about going into the Apogee software and just 
install the drivers and start using it. Usually with most interfaces I have 
encountered once the drivers are installed, you can select it as the audio 
interface in your DAW and start using it.

Any thoughts on this will be appreciated.

RE: APOGEE Thunderbolt & monitor decoupling

[Andre Jarreau]

Ok, I'm new to Mac and have even less knowledge of Keyboard Maestro.  

Do you know of an audio interface similar to the APOGEE thunderbolt Element 46 
that might be more accessible friendly?

Or should I bite the bullet and learn Keyboard Maestro?

I am open to suggestion.

Thanks
Andre J.

Nah, you can't control it from within Pro Tools. It's a stand-alone 
application. It might be possible to create macros to control it a bit with 
Keyboard Maestro but it won't have anything to do with Flo Tools.

Hello,
I am still going back and forth between the Apogee and the Apollo but neither 
seem to be completely accessible. I am looking at the new Apollo's with the 
quad shark processors, but the unison technology does not seem to be accessible 
and I don't want to buy something and only be able to use half of its features. 
What are you using? I am in the $1500 to $2000 range.
Any suggestions? I have a couple clean pres, and thought about simply picking 
up a Black Lion Audio AD converter, but then I would still have to push audio 
through my 003 and it is only fire wire and I want a stronger data transfer 
than fire wire can offer.

If you do not have an iOS device to control the device accessibly, then perhaps 
consider an interface that has some hardware buttons on it so you won’t really 
need to use its control software.  For example if you need to enable phantom 
power or switch an input from line level to hi-z consider an interface that has 
physical buttons for these features. If you don’t have a Condensor mic that 
requires phantom power or plan to record an instrument like guitar or Bass 
directly and also don’t plan to do any complicated routing of audio you 
probably won’t need to ever worry about going into the Apogee software and just 
install the drivers and start using it. Usually with most interfaces I have 
encountered once the drivers are installed, you can select it as the audio 
interface in your DAW and start using it.

RE: What external hard drives are being used?

[Andre Jarreau]

Interesting question.  I have two TB ports on my Mac.  One for Audio interface 
and I thought the other for external drives.  Is this a waste of an TB port?

 

Secondly.  Is it true it is best to have PT and all other associated recording 
software on one drive with a dedicated recording drive.  Mac software being on 
the internal drive.

 

Third.  Should the midi sound library be on it’s own drive.

 

Be patient with the newbee.

Hi Nate,

I've had great experiences with both Western Digital and seagate drives. In 
every case, they were either seventy-two hundred or ten thousand rpm drives for 
the HDD models. I've used the same brands for the SSD drives for sample 
libraries but not for recording. I've never used them via USB, although these 
days, USB 3 is plenty fast. Thus far, I've used 1 terabyte drives but now 
looking into eight or ten terabyte models for HDD. As always, SSDs are crazy 
expensive when getting into those capacities. If this is for recording, 7200 
rpm HDDs are plenty fast and you can pick them up for around seventy dollars.

You can use your Two TB ports any way you see fit. A second one is nice to have 
because not all devices have two thunderbolt ports on  them. Forexample the 
Focusrite Clarett interfaces only have one Thunderbolt port on it so if you had 
a computer with one thunderbolt port, you couldn’t also plug in a thunderbolt 
hard drive as well. However some audio interfaces do have two thunderbolt 
ports, so you can plug a hard drive into that interface and then plug that 
interface into the computer. If you only had one thunderbolt port. So having  
two ports just gives you a bit more flexibility. 

 

At the very least you will want to have your Mac OS and all software on the  
internal drive and use a second hard drive for recording. However if you aren’t 
recording more than one track at a time and not working with large projects you 
could probably get away with just using your internal drive for everything. 
Some power users however do have a separate system drive, a separate drive for 
recording onto, and a third drive for all their samples and loops.

My thought is if the APOGEE plugs into PT then regardless of of pass through,

Concerning your question about decoupling your monitors from their stands, 
generally speaking, any type of additional isolation that can be implemented to

Subject: important message regarding future Pro Tools features and VoiceOver 
keys

Consider this a bit of a public service announcement for VoiceOver users who 
use Pro Tools. There have always been several keyboard shortcuts in Pro Tools 
that have conflicted with VoiceOver. They haven't been problems, per se, as 
there were only a couple. Without getting into details, there are a number of 
keyboard shortcuts coming up in future versions of Pro Tools that will add to 
the conflicts. Yes, it's possible to pass through the key commands but the 
nature of the upcoming shortcuts is such that one might want to repeatedly use 
these shortcuts and passing through would be an exercise in inefficiency.

It is for this reason especially that I'd highly recommend switching the 
VoiceOver keys from Control+Option to CapsLock if you haven't already done so. 
I know that quite a number of users have their settings set to use both and 
some have made the full transition. I made it a point this year to make the 
jump and I'm glad I did. I made the initial transition before knowing that the 
upcoming Pro Tools shortcuts would conflict so I'm happy to have made the 
change early on. I'd encourage users to get used to the alternative because 
you'll be glad you made the switch when the time comes.

There is the one aspect of the modifier only being on the left side of the 
qwerty keyboard that makes left side combinations somewhat trickier at first 
but you really do get used to it quickly. When I switched over, the first day 
was difficult and the second day was much easier. Within 3 days it became easy 
and, at this point, I'd never go back.

I know a bunch of you have already done this so I'm just giving a heads up to 
those who haven't yet made the adjustment. Getting used to it now, before the 
new shortcuts are implemented, will make it easier later on.

Here is a little snip that I pulled up, it wasn’t exactly what I read 
yesterday, but gives the general idea.

“What do I Need to use UAD Plug-Ins With Console 1? 

Apart from the Console 1, you need a UAD Accelerator (Satellite or UAD-2 PCIe 
card) or an Apollo interface, and you need to own the Console 1 ready UAD

plug-in you want to use. With that in place, it's plug and play. The Console 1 
system will automatically identify the Console 1 ready plug-ins (both UAD

and Softube) that are installed on your system, and they will be pre-mapped for 
you. Just open them from within the Console 1 system and mix away”

The way the UAD software works wen last I used it, it installed all the UAD 
plug ins, and used your authorization file to see which one are authorized to 
your account. So even in Pro Tools, unless you sort through and hide the ones 
you do not have authorizations for you will have to scroll through a lot of 
plug ins to find the ones you want. When you load a plug in you don’t have an 
authorization for it will prompt you to purchase it or authorize a demo ( a 
process that is not accessible btw). I say that to say this. UAD has about 100 
plug ins in their arsenal alone, So even if the Console one hardware had the 
means of  allowing one to choose a plug in to load to a blank slot in the UAD 
console software, one would still have to cycle through a long list to select 
the plug in to load. And if the UAD console software still shows up as blank to 
VoiceOver, We still won’t be able to select plug ins since there will be no 
spoken feedback. I’d love to be proven wrong here and have this all be 
accessible, I still have plug ins collecting dust in my UAD account I’d like to 
use. But unless the UAD console  software is now visible to voiceover somewhat 
(which btw anyone who has a UAD Apollo and running the latest version of the 
software can answer) We are still in the same boat.

If I am correct the Apollo has a free software download that allows greater

knobs as you say.  I feel there is something to this 
controller-interface-software combination.  However I might be as right as

Really looking forward to finding out what Slau and Nate will learn from their

Yes the goal of the Console one (the hardware control surface) is so that 
engineers won’t have to look at the screen. However in the UAD Console (the 
software emulating a mixer interface for the UAD Apollo audio interface) one 
would first need to use a mouse to select a blank plug in slot and load a plug 
into said slot. Once a plug in is loaded and selected,  One can use the Console 
one (hardware control surface) to  change the parameters in the loaded plug in. 
 Because they are adjusting the knobs from a hardware surface, they won’t have 
to look at the screen and can close their eyes and adjust until things sound 
right. Given that so far there is no VoiceOver support in the UAD Console 

(the software emulating a mixer interface for the UAD Apollo audio interface) 
we still have to figure out a way to get the plug in loaded into a blank slot 
on a given channel ,

Makes sense Pro Tools First would be limited being a PT- Lite version built for

I'm not sure where the confusion is. I'm not talking about Flo Tools. I'm 
answering your question about the free version of Pro Tools which is known as 
Pro Tools First. It's less than ideal for accessibility. the full version of 
Pro Tools is the more accessible route. Flo tools simply makes Pro Tools far 
more efficient to use and speeds up workflow way beyond what using Pro Tools 
alone offers blind users.

Just to be clear, Komplete Kontrol is a plug-in that has a dedicated series of 
MIDI controller keyboards that interface with the plug-in but the plug-in 
itself has no libraries. The Komplete Kontrol plug-in can load Native 
instruments products like Komplete and Komplete Ultimate or individual plug-ins 
like Kontakt or third party VST plug-ins. The only thing resembling a library 
that comes with the Komplete Kontrol series controllers is something called 
"Komplete Select" which is a very simple library consisting largely of Kontakt 
instruments and some synths. While the KK S series controllers come with this 
basic library as a download, the more comprehensive Komplete 11 or Komplete 11 
Ultimate is a much more diverse and comprehensive package of, not only 
instruments but also some processing and effects plug-ins.

The best type of controller to use with Pro Tools is one that is supported. 
However, if you're trying to use a generic MIDI controller, it's best to read 
the control surfaces guide pdf and follow instructions there. It'll definitely 
take some sighted assistance. Again, a supported surface is a far better way to 
go if at all possible and I realize that sometimes it's just not feasible.

hi friends

what’s the most convenient way of assigning a plug-in or track parameter to a 
physical controller on a midi control surface in ProTools 12.8.2? (am using 
controllers by Novation and the uc-33E).

huge thanks for any input

Hi Steve,

Not true!

I just went through this last week with a uad tech.

I had them do a teem viewer session and after the latest uad software install I 
had the tech remove every single plug that I didn't own leaving only the plugs 
I got with my Apollo duo.

The tech who I know from his Avid days is the one who suggested that the soft 
tube controller   might be a solution.

I do this every time uad brings out a new software version so when I'm booting 
in to a pt hdx session I don't get those uad dialogues which come up if you 
don't own the uad  plug! :)

Until some one gets their hands and VO! ears on the unit the verdict is still 
out!

ps keep emailing uad the steady drip is needed!

ps ps this is how you spell Apollo so we don't look like uninformed Apollo UA 
users! :)

Here is a little snip that I pulled up, it wasn’t exactly what I read 
yesterday, but gives the general idea.

“What do I Need to use UAD Plug-Ins With Console 1? 

Apart from the Console 1, you need a UAD Accelerator (Satellite or UAD-2 PCIe 
card) or an Apollo interface, and you need to own the Console 1 ready UAD

plug-in you want to use. With that in place, it's plug and play. The Console 1 
system will automatically identify the Console 1 ready plug-ins (both UAD

and Softube) that are installed on your system, and they will be pre-mapped for 
you. Just open them from within the Console 1 system and mix away”

Audio Interface

[Andre Jarreau]

Hi Everyone,

Using PT and FlowTools on a Mac Book Pro.  Several have told me some audio 
interfaces plug in directly into PT and can be controlled using FlowTools.

A major email outage destroyed all my emails.  So audio interface discussion I 
had are gone.  can anyone say what make and model audio interface might be best 
to look into for 8 useable I/O ports?

I'm new to PT Access and new to the DAW world but getting better.  So please 
bear with me while I learn.

Thanks

Hi Andre,
There's no shortage of interfaces so it's difficult to answer a broad question. 
What's the budget range? If you're on a tighter budget, the focusrite Scarlet

RE: Universal Audio Announce Arrow - A New Thunderbolt 3 Audio Interface

[Andre Jarreau]

Oh no Chris.  Was pointing the finger at myself for not realizing the UA Arrow 
latest release would perform like UA interfaces if not better.  Sorry about not 
realizing how what was written might be interpreted.  I will be more thoughtful 
when responding on the list.  The UA Arrow update was great to have and good of 
you to share.  For that, tons of thanks!

sorry Andre, I wasn't trying to sound flippant there. As far as I know, it's 
similar to their other interfaces, just scaled down - fewer inputs and outputs 
etc. and more affordable.

GarageBand doesn’t require any special interfaces. If an audio interface is 
core audio compatible which basically means if it supports  working on the Mac 
it will work in garage band. Same with midi controllers. GarageBand is great 
about detecting any connected midi device and usually all you have to do is 
plug one in for GB to find it and start using it immediately.

RE: Thunderbolt Ports

[Andre Jarreau]

Didn’t do a very good job with google.  But, hacking around the machine I saw a 
spec called speed.  Speed is 20 Ghz.  Would it be safe to say this reflects a 
TB3 port?

If you have a Mac that has standard USB ports in addition to Thunderbolt ports 
then you have thunderbolt 2 ports. The only Mac laptops with Thunderbolt 3

Do these WAVES plug-ins download directly into the DAW, or audio interface?

RE: Best microphones to use with protools.

[Andre Jarreau]

Ok, how many microphone do you need.  And what ballpark are you looking to 
spend.

 

For live work the dynamic Shure 58 is the industry workhorse even some big name 
artist use.  Cost $99

 

The Shure 58 can also be used in the studio depending what sound you are going 
for.  

 

My sense is that if you are asking these questions that you are new to the home 
recording studio scene.  If that is the case your mic locker should only have 
one mic, the Sure 58.  Over time you can bring in artists that might have their 
own mics and you will be exposed to new sounds and grow your mic needs 
organically.  To kick things off go with the 58.

 

If you are micing instruments the Sure 57 also $99 is a good one.

 

The 57 & 58 do not require phantom power so one less thing to worry about.  And 
they are rugged and last a long time.

 

If you branch out into condenser phantom powered mics look for cardioid mic 
patterns.  One you have to be right on top of to make sound.  This will help 
eliminate unwanted noise that is natural to the room you are recording in.  
Large diaphragm for voice and small diaphragm for instrument recording.  But 
note condenser mics don’t like to be dropped.

 

Ribbon mics are through the roof expensive, are fragile, and should be handled 
by experienced sound engineers only.  

 

These are just a few thoughts on mics.  If you want to go further into various 
mics then be a little more precise in the purpose you are to use mics for.  
Broadcast is a little vague. 

 

Hope this helps.

 

Andre

Buy PT on disc or buy from Avid on web

[Andre Jarreau]

Hi everyone,

Simple question.  Is it better to get PT on a CD and have a permanent copy:

Or is it better to buy PT from Avid online?  

Online is about half of PT on CD.

I was told both versions can be maintained including upgrades for $99 a year.

Your shared knowledge is appreciated.  Thanks

Andre

Hi Andre,

Yes it basically works as a channel strip.

Joe who is on this list is using it may be he can chime in.

Thats all I can share is that it does work.

So if you have a Apollo quad you can use it as a 4 channel mic pre or if you 
have the 8 channel you have 8 mic pres with plugs & gain is usable for each.

I can't say any more as I haven't bought it for my Apollo  yet!

Talk soon

Console one was made to control some of the soft tube plug ins and the UAD plug 
in and now the UAD console. I don’t know how much functionality it has outside 
of those areas as in if it can be use to control the DAW as well. Also It seems 
PreSonus took some additional steps to allow some functionality with pro tools 
in the fader port 8, that you wouldn’t normally get with a non Avid/ProTOols 
controller, so you may still be interested in the Fader Port. Speaking of which 
zounds has the fader port 8 for $100 off today.

Subject: Re: For UA oppolo users: potentially huge increase in accessiblity 
with soft tube controler

 

Console one was made to control some of the soft tube plug ins and the UAD plug 
in and now the UAD console. I don’t know how much functionality it has outside 
of those areas as in if it can be use to control the DAW as well. Also It seems 
PreSonus took some additional steps to allow some functionality with pro tools 
in the fader port 8, that you wouldn’t normally get with a non Avid/ProTOols 
controller, so you may still be interested in the Fader Port. Speaking of which 
zounds has the fader port 8 for $100 off today.

Hi all, 

 

Not a UA interface user myself but thought  I should post this given recent 
discussions on interfaces. 

 

At first glance it seems a 500 buvk inbestment in soft tube's controler could 
open up physical control of many funvtions of the oppolo which are not yet 
accessible with boice over.

Please note I have no hands experience with these products, though O am a fan 
of the 2 soft tube plugins I own. 

 

Brian.

RE: OT: Talking Multimeter

Nickus,

 

Forgive my ignorance.  What is the multimeter used for?  Measuring voltages and 
currents in electric circuits etc.?

 

Thanks

Hi all

I’ll happily share with the list, I just didn’t think there will be a lot of 
interest, so didn’t want to bug the list with long discussions etc.

 

I’m not even sure of the companies name, as said they are in Russia.

The guys name is Maxim Pavlov you can email him for all info ma...@sinor.ru

 

The price is $80 there is a version with and without temperature measurement, 
both cost the same.

I paid $50 for courier shipping and it took 11 days to reach me, I paid them 
via Paypal.

 

As I understand, this is actually a normal mainstream multimeter which they 
then program to output synthesised speech via the RS232 communication port.

It has a rechargeable battery and charges via USB cable which is included with 
the product.

 

You will have a option of voices, he will send you sample files, out of the 3 
english voices he sent me, I opted for the female one.

You will also have the option to have a braille label cut out on the top for 
all modes, or you can choose that they make a cutout for you with only a couple 
of dots marking modes which you choose. I went for the braille label cutout 
since I thought it would be kind of cool, but turns out this doesn’t work too 
well. The space is very limited so everything is squeezed in quite tight, 
result is that most of the braille gets cut off. If I could choose again, I’d 
take the option of only a couple of dots on the top then memorise the modes I 
need most. This label isn’t fixed though, it’s a thick piece of cardboard so at 
some point I’ll just make a new one with a couple of dots on the modes which I 
use most.

 

Finally you can also choose to have them put a button on the positive probe for 
you, when you press this button it will speak the value on screen, I went for 
this option and it works great rather than the thing talking and talking non 
stop.

 

If you have any questions, I’ll happily answer so ask away.
