Re: Playlists
Hi Martin, I'm not sure when the next version will release but it should be fairly soon. Yes, any selected tracks will increment playlists and Flo Tools will announce the new playlist names.

Re: Playlists
Hi Slau :-) That were my thoughts when going to bed 4 hours ago… But do you have any timeline? The update server isoffline for days ;-) And did you know that no more grouping is necessary when wanting to change playlists for multiple tracks at once. Just select the desired tracks and use Shift+Option+UpArrow / Shift+Option+DownArrow. Will the new Flo Tools also handle that?

Oh Slau… No automatic reporting here. The backslash single and double actions are working as expected. But maybe the script needs a special screen item labeled in English . Running Pro Tools in English but OS Sierra in German sometimes brings German items into pro Tools. We also had this with the script for arming tracks. Chi will remember. e.g. „button" very often is reportet as „Taste" and „pop up menu“ is „Einblendmenü“, because those objects come from the os and not the app. If the script searches for the „play list selector pop up“ there is a „play list selector Einblendmenü“ ofer here.

Re: Playlists
Hi Slau! Sorry I did not hear the „#“ in yourlast mail. And so I thought that Flo Tools will announce the playlists name automatically. Best! / Martin Am 11.09.2017 um 17:51 schrieb Slau Halatyn <slauhala...@gmail.com>: Hi Martin, The Control+p and Control+semicolon shortcuts have nothing to do with playlists. Those shortcuts move the insertion point up and down through shown tracks respectively. Adding Shift to those shortcuts extends the selection through multiple tracks. The new Shift+up or down arrows cycles through available playlists on selected tracks. If you have 3 vocal tracks and you're on the first track, pressing Control+semicolon will move the insertion down to vocal 2. Now that vocal 2 is selected, if you had created a few playlists on that track, pressing Shift+down arrow would switch to the playlist labeled Vocal 2.01.

Re: Playlists
Hi again! I’m just playing around with the Pro Tools With Speech session including the vox track with playlists. I selected only that track. Selection is working. I tried cutting… The available playlists are selected correctly when pressing Shift+UpArrow and Shift+DownArrow. But Flo Tools doesn’t announce the playlists name. What ˛ could be wrong here?

If you have 3 vocal tracks and you're on the first track, pressing Control+semicolon will move the insertion down to vocal 2.

Re: Playlists
Hi Martin, Yes, that is true, if you've set the Track view Selector to playlist rather than waveform. But, as you pointed out, unless you solo the track, you'll hear the main playlist. The whole process works well for sighted users because they can instantly see what is selected, what's soloed, etc. You can certainly stumble through it as a blind user but it's easy to lose one's place. There's some new editing features in the works for a future Pro Tools release (perhaps the next one or surely the one after that) which will make things a bit easier still. With groups, the selection of playlists still works with Shift and the up and down arrows. The whole thing gets a little screwy when the number of playlists among the tracks don't match. Supposedly, (and sometimes this does actually work), extra playlists are created in order to line up the numbers so that all tracks are incrementing the same way. Most of the time, grouped tracks have playlists that increment together anyway since they're usually created right at the outset when recording. It's in the later stages where this can get tricky with tracks whose playlists were not created simultaneously. Man, Pro tools can sometimes get convoluted but logic does prevail in most cases.

Re: Playlists
Hi Slau and others! First of all, thanks for your answer. In my Pro Tools documentation CTRL+P and CTRL+Semicolon will select the prior/next playlist of a selected track, when the track view is set to „Playlist“ and not to „Waveform“. For playing the selected playlist back Shift+S solos the playlist and not the track in this situation. This was/is necessary because otherwise only the main playlist is audible. But maybe that’s old stuff?… Further when grouping tracks CTRL+P and CGRL+Semicolon will select the prior/next playlist for all tracks in that group. Ho is this done, when using Shift+UpArrow/Shift+DownArrow? Also by grouping?

Hi all! Could someone explain the difference between using CTRL+P / CTRL+; and the newer combinations Shift+UpArrow / Shift+DownArrow. In older versions of Pro Tools I had to use CTRL+P / CTRL+; to switch between playlists and further have to solo the desired one for listen to it. What’s happening now when using Shift+UpArrow / Shift+DownArrow. Reading the ref guide I understood that these key combinations will bring the current playlist to the main playlist. So no soloing necessary? Will this behaviour overwrite the main playlist?

Re: Taming VoiceOver's dodgy mouse tracking and changing playlists on multiple tracks
Hi Scott, What mac OS? If your talking about the tracks table make sure to resize it 30% to the right in the mix window if your working in there. You need sighted assistance to do this at least in my snow leopard with pt 9.03. Also hitting page up occasionally clears things up, along with closing the window and reopening it. As for the applying things to multiple tracks just make an edit / mix group and make sure the group is selected and go for it.:) While in the groups dialogue czech out all the options that attributes has to offer. especially the insert controls. Just make an item chooser list and go shopping! :) Talk soon YMMV Chuck CHUCK REICHEL soundpicturerecord...@gmail.com www.SoundPictureRecording.com 954-742-0019 Isaiah 26 : 3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

Re: Taming VoiceOver's dodgy mouse tracking and changing playlists on multiple tracks
Fair point Chuck, totally forgot to mention which version of Mac OS. This machine is running Lion. Seem to have cleared things up a tad by closing/reopening the troublesome windows and showing less tracks at a time, but there's still something funky going on with mouse tracking in the edit window. Managed to get everything done anyway, just a little slower than I would've liked. Cheers Scott On 4/18/14, CHUCK REICHEL soundpicturerecord...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Scott, What mac OS? If your talking about the tracks table make sure to resize it 30% to the right in the mix window if your working in there. You need sighted assistance to do this at least in my snow leopard with pt 9.03. Also hitting page up occasionally clears things up, along with closing the window and reopening it. As for the applying things to multiple tracks just make an edit / mix group and make sure the group is selected and go for it.:) While in the groups dialogue czech out all the options that attributes has to offer. especially the insert controls. Just make an item chooser list and go shopping! :) Talk soon YMMV Chuck CHUCK REICHEL soundpicturerecord...@gmail.com www.SoundPictureRecording.com 954-742-0019 Isaiah 26 : 3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

Re: Taming VoiceOver's dodgy mouse tracking and changing playlists on multiple tracks
Ah, another good point. Cheers Slau, if I get a chance to show a whole bunch of stuff and troubleshoot before I have to leave today I'll see if that would've helped. Always good to know this stuff for next time, I don't think this particular place will be moving on from Lion any time soon. Scott On 4/18/14, Slau Halatyn slauhala...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Scott, One thing to try is the command for scrolling the track into view. Sometimes VoiceOver reads things that are absolutely hidden from view to sighted users. In a way, this can be helpful but it sometimes works against you. Aside from that, it's been a long time since I used Lion so I can't offer anything other than what's been said.

Re: playlists
Hey Frank, If the tracks are in an edit group that is active, changing the playlist of any track should change them all. If that doesn't seem to work, you can use the Option modifier when clicking on the playlist button. That will change them all together.

Re: playlists
Hey Slau, You are the best! Finally I understand. Many thanks for your explanations and patience ;-) best, Ronald Op 25 feb 2011, om 21:37 heeft Slau Halatyn het volgende geschreven: Hi Ronald, It sounds more complicated than it really is. Let's distinguish between two things that are very clearly separated in the analog world but are often confused in the digital world. One is a track and the other is a channel. In a DAW, the two are often used interchangeably. The Mix window shows tracks, yes, but think of them as channels on a mixing console. Each one of those channels is feeding and receiving information from a track as if it were a tape machine. The Edit window is sort of like a tape machine. Each track is like a track on a multitrack tape recorder. Each playlist is just a separate path on that tape, a separate track. the difference in the digital world is that, rather than just having one path for each track, there are any number of virtual paths underneath the topmost playlist. By selecting a range, using the Start and End parameters, it's possible to record only within the specified ranges. Further, one can put the transport into Loop Record mode where multiple passes can be recorded within the same range. That's a little more complex and I won't get into that here. Anyway, when you read anything about ranges, it's referring to Start and end times. Whenever you read something about selecting something in a playlist, it simply means selecting something in the visible track or the topmost playlist in this case. Hopefully, that makes some sense.

If you name the track before recording (as one should always do), the playlist will now be called whatever you named the track. So, in other words, whatever you name you track is actually naming the the playlist. Let's say you've recorded some audio on a track named Piano and now you want to record an alternate take. using the playlist selector, choose New… and you'll be prompted with a dialog to name the playlist. The default will be the same name with .01 appended to the name. You can repeat this process to record multiple takes on the same channel strip but using several playlists. Think of it as having a stack of papers, each with similar information but only one piece of paper can be on top and that is your current playlist but there are other playlists beneath. Since Pro Tools appends .01, .02, .03, etc. to the name, it's a good idea (if you know you're going to do multiple takes, to create a new playlist right at the outset so that your first take is already named Track Name.01. This way, each subsequent playlist will reflect the same number as your take. In the end, you can comp to the original playlist which has no number appended and it can be considered your final or master playlist for that track. Hope that helps, Slau

A little confused about something. If I have two or more tracks in a edit group, I had to go to each individual track in order to change playlists? I don't understand. I am missing something. HF

When you first create a group, I thought by default that they were already active so I didn't check. I'll check next time.

True—upon creation, a group is active. Perhaps, for some strange reason, it was made inactive. Hmm… let's see what you find.
