Just got stutter edit this second and will have a play with it...of course,
I'll mostly be doing this type of thing in sonar myself and don't invisage
doing things on this end of the spectrum in PT any time soon.
I know there are VST rappers for logic and such, not so sure about the
existance or reliablity of such devices in ProTools.
That stutter edit thing is all over music made in the past year, can't
believe I didn't go lookng for the single plugin solution for most of those
sounds! I had probably thought people were putting a lot of work into
slicing things up and editing! I'll look forward to trying to get it going
to cut up live performances, but now we are straying very much off topic!
sorry listers!

Yes, I'll do some more experimenting. There is a plugin called Stutter
Edit made by the producer BT alongside iZotope. This could be
accessible since you can control this via a midi controller. I think
all the keys are automatically assigned to different patterns, effects
and speeds. This is available to trial for ten days. I will have a
look into it. There is some examples of Stutter Edit on
YOutube:.Here's a video of BT talking about Stutter Edit:

I also use some really good VST plugins. I believe it is possible to
use VSt in ProTools nowadays with some kind of add on. I'll let you
know about these vSTs when I get home to my DAW. Again, these should
work in ProTools because the controls are automatable and you can use
midi to activate them.
I'll be back in touch soon with more findings.

All very good info David...a lot of these ap solutions could really be a
nice place to start looking as you say because of the price.
I am looking for something to do stutter effects alright...I had the use
of
a Kaoss pad for a while, and that had some nice little capabilities, but
really it's a bit of a strange possibly outdated bit of gear for the
prosumer DJ market, I can't see why an iPhone ap couldn't be as much fun
or
as effective really.
I'd love to hear an audio demo if you find any time after you mess around
a
bit more...or even just another report on your progress.
Brian.

One final thing: there are many more apps for around 69 pense that do
similar things that I haven't tried yet. I think there is one that
just does scratching. This might be better for us because the screen
might be less cluttered and so perhaps it would make it more
accessible.
I know this isn't ProTools related, but someone did ask about
scratching and if we were sighted ProTools users then perhaps we
wouldn't need to look for alternatives like this. So it's all about
finding work-arounds.
Hope this helps.

On the subject of scratching,:I came across an IPhone/IPad app called
DJay. It lets you do scratching, beat matching, adding effects, pitch
shifting, stuttering and all sorts of other stuff. It seems as if this
would be amazing for someone sighted. I would love to be able to use
it. I only downloaded it last night (for 69 pense incidentally) and I
managed to load a track and do some scratching with it. I also got
some stuttering, EQ changes, speed changes and pitch shifting going,
and bit crushing too. You have to turn Voice Over off (pressing the
home key 3 times) once the track is loaded so that you can do the
scratching and stuff. I think I might use it in my next DJ project but
it will be a case of just plugging it into my sound card,
experimenting with it for a while and then taking the best results and
matching it to my project. I haven't managed to work out how to do
specific things on it as such; it is more just a case of tapping and
sliding aroudn the screen and listening to what crazy things happen.
The good news though is that you can hook it up to a control surface
(not sure which ones) and so this might give us more accessibility.
We'll get there my friends!

The only way I have accomplished scratching is by using Sonar with
the
JSonar scripts and a VST called Turntablest Pro. Obviously you need
a
PC running Jaws and Sonar for this. This is one reason why I can't
see
moving to ProTools fully yet because it seems as if we have a
certain
level of accessibility but goodness knows when - hopefully it's a
case
of "when" and not "if" - we'll get more accessibility..
You also need hotspot clicker to create a hotspot file so that you
can
get a sighted person to put your mouse on the load button, and the
other buttons and then you can assign a hotkey to achieve clicking
the
load button yourself. I have a very tempramental hotspot file for
TurnTablest Pro that I have to remap everytime I want to use it. It
makes the plugin accessible but takes me a bit longer than it would
take a sighted person. I don't think sharing my hotspot file would
really help.
Hotspot clicker is another reason why I can't forsake my PC for
ProTools on the mac entirely. There are too many important
production
techniques I would lose.
I hope this helps a bit. Email if you think this might be a
plausable
option for you and I'll be happy to talk you through things as best
I
can.
Incidentaly, if you want to hear some of my scratching in operation
using turntablest pro then there's a DJ set I created last year with
quite a bit of scratching in it.

Hi Chris,
Vari-Fi does a "great" job of slowing down the track, but does not
scratch
to my knowledge.
My Hip-Hop clients love it.
Just make a selection on the word or phrase and bang!

Goldwave to perhaps?
Not sure, it does seem a bit of a tall order LOL, but huh anyways.

Hi Jon,
I have a friend that does scratching this way.
Bounce the vocal "rap" track and burn a cd then put it into a DJ
cd
player that can scratch and take audio out from dj box and bang
it
in
to
pt!
Now you can move it into position in pt if you don't scratch in
time!
:)
Its quick but works fine.
May be someone has a better way but this will get er done! :)
YMMV

Hey all,
Does anyone know how to put the effect on vocals like a DJ is
holding
the spinning record and stopping it to give it that scratching
and
quick repeating effect? I'm doing an album for a hip hop artist
and
he
asked if I could do that to one section of the vocals and I have
no
idea....but of course I said "Sure!"
Thanks!
Glad you like it my friend. The answer to your question is no, but
then
I assume you knew that already.
