Re: ? on pro tools HD hardware. ; Hardware "A/D for PT
Hi list, I just wanted to mention while were on the topic of Hardware "A/D for PT. that I just installed a "Lynx Aurora 16 " along with a hd3 system and so far very cool. 16 analogue I/O and 16 Aes-ebu "digital"I/o and it worked with PT out of its box!

This is what that means: If you have a large session, say, 24 tracks record enabled or even on an LE system, say, 16 tracks ready to record in QuickPunch mode, the system is going to allocate drive space, prepare voices, automation data (if there is any) and a few other things.

If you really want to get into that other mode where it just pauses when you hit the space bar, pressing Control-n toggles this playback mode and the preference is also in the Setups>Preferences dialog and is called "Insertion Follows Playback." 2. If the transport is engaged, and you find a spot you want to start playback from, simply pressing the down arrow will automatically populate the start field with the current transport value.

Re: ? on pro tools HD hardware.
Michael, For clarification, a control surface isn't usually referred to as having channels, per se, unless it's an interface as well. In the case of Digidesign hardware, the interfaces are separate from the control surfaces, at least in the HD line. In the LE environment, there are surfaces like the 003 which have a built-in interface. You can probably get a lot of your questions answered by simply calling an avid representative or someone at a place like Sweetwater. They'll be able to explain stuff readily.

Re: ? on pro tools HD hardware.
You might be thinking of the control|24 which has 24 moving faders. It's not an interface. The 192 I/O comes with 8 analog ins and 8 analog outs which can be expanded to either 16 in and 8 out or 8 in and 16 out. The digital outs are separate and independent of the analog I/Os.

Re: 2 things
Pitch-n-Time is definitely iLok authorized but I'm not sure whether that applies to a demo license. I've seen it both ways. If you do email them for tech support, remember they're asleep when you're not.

Re: 2 things
oh boy, I installed it, but now I have to figure out how to get it working. I think it has to do with the iLock system. do I need to buy it or is there a free demo version?

Re: plugins
Thanks. I want to get the most out of this thing. I really am not trying to have 500 different compressers and 1234 different reverbs, I just want to be able to sift threw and see what works for me.

Yeah, there are a bunch of free plug-ins but I'm not sure of where the best centrally located place is to find them. I'll ask around.

I have to ask this. Are there any free plugins for pro tools. And if not, where can I find ones to buy? I know that isitope or what ever they are called has some, I am going to look for those as well. GF

Serato is at http://www.serato.com. I think they're based in the south Pacific somewhere, New Zealand, Australia or something.
