Robin,
There is a sollution. Matt and Rod unintentionally might a made a little
booboo in their recording. Maybe in V10 you could get away with this, but I
don't think you could. I had this same issue after following their nuts and
bolts section on the web site.
Basically the problem is, they tell you to check the option for Plugin
defaults to automation enabled in the ProTools Preferences. You want to
actually do the oppisit. You actually want this to not! be checked. I
don't recall where that checkbox is exactly. It's under the mix tab of PT's
preferences, but I don't remember exactly which area then to interact with
under that tab, and right now, I'm on my Windows PC, so I can't look. It
should be fairly obvious though once you get in there.
Try that though, and see if that helps.
Chris.

Subject: Compressor parameters reset back to defaults whenever I close the
plugin window
Hi all!
So… By now I made it to the mixing module of the PRo Tools With Speech
tutorials and up until this point everything went very smoothly! However, I’m
now experiencing a rather frustrating problem… So, Basically I’ve got this
vocal track to which I applied the BF-76 compressor using inserts. Now, when
I VO space on that insert to bring up the plugin window, I can tell that
there’s quite a difference in how things are labeled from the tutorial,
probably because Matt and Rob are using PT 10 whereas I’m on PT 11. Even
though the labels are a little confusing, I could locate the relevant
parameters without much trouble. Now, when I change the input and output
values, I noticed that those parameters stay at whatever value I set them to
even when I close that floating window. However, there is an annoying issue
when I change either the attack, release or ratio parameters. I can interact
with and modify them as usual, and if I stop interacting, move the focus
elsewhere within the plugin window and then return they will still have the
same values. However, and this is where it gets annoying, I’ve found that as
soon as I move the VO focus out of the plugin window, either by closing the
window or by simply selecting a different window, as soon as I move the VO
focus back to the compressor I find that the parameters simply reverted back
to their defaults, e.g. attack 3.0, release 5.1 and a ratio of 4:1… I’ve
tried this a couple times now, relaunched PT, tried setting those parameters
with cursor tracking disabled - yet I’m still seeing the same annoying
behavior! I really really hope that there’s a simple solution for that, or
maybe it’s just a case of me doing something wrong due to lack of
experience!
Either way, if anyone of you could point me in the right direction I would
greatly appreciate that!
Many thanks,
Robin
