Re: contour shuttle pro v2 and pro tools
Hi Slaw, I just tested it now, and though the buttons dont seem intuitively placed, and i have to interact with the transport cluster for it to work, scrubbing seems ok, at least with the springy wheel thing. The actual jog doesn't seem to do what its supposed to. There are many buttons on this thing, and they're not very well indicative of what they should do, and the control panel for the shuttle pro isn't particularly accessible, but if this can get me through note changing and editing as discussed on a previous post, i'll give it a try before i actually hook myself up with a proper setup such as the euphonics family of controllers. Cheers Yuma s

An informal Podcast regarding Pro Tools.
Hey folks. While cleaning my apartment at 4 in the morning, I turned on the iPod and did about an hour or so worth of stream of consciousness chatting regarding Pro Tools. I go through it's back story on how we got where we are now, and tried to answer the 2 main questions that everyone's posing right now. 1. How accessible is it, ie, what can I do with it. 2. How much better or worse is it than Sonar. I think that a tutorial is important, but like everyone else, the time it takes is really daunting. So, for now, I'm gonna throw up some really informal things just to get some dialog started. Maybe I'll even do some quick recording of me working on a session so that folks can get an idea of how Pro Tools operates in a real world situation. This might be better than trying to plan out a huge tutorial. At least this would give potential switchers a chance to hear it in action, allow me to discuss what I'm doing while I'm doing it, and be able to see what I'm able to accomplish. But for now, enjoy this discussion. It will be appearing on Blind Cool Tech soon. I've uploaded it to their servers. http://kevinreeves.net/InformalProToolsTalk.mp3. Thanks so much, and I hope this sort of sheds some light for folks who have not yet made the decision to get a rig. Kevin
about the command numpad key shortcuts

Re: about the command numpad key shortcuts
Hi all It seems as though it maybe that Yuma is up against the strange have to press twice or three times to get a popup to happen. These are things you get used to having to do. I hope they get fixed but for now you have to try the action until you here the voiceover popup sound. Also I believe that the edit window may need to be open to get to transport window to popup. One other thing. What keyboard are you using? If your trying to use the bluetooth numpad that was discussd on this list a few weeks ago it will not work.

Re: about the command numpad key shortcuts
Hey Slau, Sorry about the typo. So no, command numpad 1 as in command on the normal keyboard + numpad 1 on my numpad, numlock or not numlock just doesn't do anything. Of course, numpad commander turned off. Will get to the bottom of this Yuma.

Alternative way to get tracks selected with out a controller.
Hi Listers, You may find this interesting. I came across this when I was in a session the mix window had not had the tracks table vertical splitter moved to the right 30%. As long as the tracks are showing you can use control ; and or control shift ; to move the track selection down in the tracks. You can also use control shift p to move up maintaining the selection of the track you started on. This makes it easy to select any tracks that are showing in the session. These track selections are reflected shown in the tracks table. I discovered this when moving a selection from 1 track to another in the mix window. talk soon Chuck Reichel 954-742-0019 www.SoundPictureRecording.com

Re: Alternative way to get tracks selected with out a controller.
Hi Yuma, Selecting tracks is unquestionably easiest with a control surface but, with the edit follows Track Selection checked under the Options menu (and it's not checked by default), one can move the insertion point up and down through the edit window and track selection will follow. Control-; (semicolon) moves the insertion down and Control-p moves it up to the track above. Using the Shift modifier will extend the selection in either direction. Two things to remember: To use these shortcuts, you need to first create an insertion point by scrubbing or shuttling in the track. Once that's been done, the shortcuts will work. Also, if you've extended the selection through, say, three tracks and then scrub or shuttle, the insertion point will retract to the top two tracks. If you want to maintain the insertion point through all the tracks, you must create a group. An active group will maintain the insertion point regardless of whether you scrub or shuttle. finally, if you've extended the insertion through several tracks and want to manually retract the insertion point, use Control-Option-; (semicolon) and this will retract from the bottom one track at a time for as many times as you press the shortcut.

Re: Alternative way to get tracks selected with out a controller.// Dragging tracks in the track table.
Hi Slau, Have you tried to drag and drop tracks to re order them in the new PT while in the tracks table? If you don't move the vertical splitter over to the right about 30% you can not drag or use command click to select meltable tracks. Of course you need sighted assistance to use the mouse to click and drag the vertical splitter over to the right! Thats why my templates all have the vertical splitter for the tracks table moved 30% % to the right to make the visual and the other basic track moving stuff available in every session i do from my templates. talk soon YTMMV Your mouse may veri!

You can also use control shift p to move up maintaining the selection of the track you started on. This makes it easy to select any tracks that are showing in the session. These track selections are reflected shown in the tracks table.

Re: Structure Free first Audition!
I'm still confused at where the structure sounds are located on the DVD's. I know they don't exist on 9, but I do have the DVD's for 8. If anyone can give me a path, that would be fantastic. For all I know, I don't have any of these sounds.

Re: Alternative way to get tracks selected with out a controller.// Dragging tracks in the track table.
Chuck, Moving tracks has nothing to do with moving an insertion point. Why are you bringing this up in this thread? Slau On Mar 19, 2011, at 8:56 PM, Chuck Reichel wrote: Hi Slau, Have you tried to drag and drop tracks to re order them in the new PT while in the tracks table? If you don't move the vertical splitter over to the right about 30% you can not drag or use command click to select meltable tracks. Of course you need sighted assistance to use the mouse to click and drag the vertical splitter over to the right! Thats why my templates all have the vertical splitter for the tracks table moved 30% % to the right to make the visual and the other basic track moving stuff available in every session i do from my templates. talk soon YTMMV Your mouse may veri!

Re: Alternative way to get tracks selected with out a controller.
Hey Kevin, I'm about 99% sure that the extending of the insertion point with Control-Shift-semicolon has always been available in LE. The whole Edit selection following track selection is certainly new. Hmm, I have used HD so much more than LE so now I'm second guessing but, if it is new to you, well, that's great but for HD users who've had Pro Tools since 2002, well, I'm just a bit surprised at the, quote unquote, discovery. Best, Slau On Mar 19, 2011, at 9:24 PM, Kevin Reeves wrote: I would hold down shift and hit the select buttons on the control surface. Also, this is my first time using Pro Tools with the keyboard focus mode. In my version of 5, these commands didn't exist. THey only existed in the HD version of 5, and the LE versions of 6 and above. So to me, it's brand new.
