I know i sound like a broken record, i just want to make sure, PT 9 or 10
Hi there. I have bought ProTools and an MBox and it turned out i got v9.0, however i have the possibility to upgrade to version 10. Now i heard that accessibility in some version of v10 is broken and so my questions now are: Should i stick with a version 9 of Protools and if so which version works with Lion or should i upgrade to v10, something i want to do, and if so which version is safe to use with Voiceover? As i understand it v10.3.2 is out of the question so what can/should i use to be certain it works with Voiceover? How can i make sure the plugins will work with VO? and lastly, where do i place the loops that came with PT? Thanks for any and all help and apologies for sounding lake a broken record and asking the same questions over and over again, it's just that every time i asked i got different answers and i ended up more confused than before. /Krister, PT newbie

Hi Krister, Stick with version 9. There's nothing in 10 that will be of any significant gain for you. If you're eligible for the upgrade, go ahead and download it. Just simply don't install it. Version 9 works with Lion. Learn the Pro Tools environment for now and install the upgrade once some of these issues with VoiceOver are resolved.

Hmm, my 9.0 said it didn't want to work with Lion. Maybe it's because the license wasn't propperly installed. Hmm, have to hunt for the latest 9 then. Thanks so much for the help. /Krister 19 jan 2013 kl. 15:21 skrev Slau Halatyn slauhala...@gmail.com: Hi Krister, Stick with version 9.

Hi Krister, As my friend Michael Pearson-Adamsfrom Avid told me when I was considering moving to PT 9.6 PT 9.6 was the first pt 9 that was tweaked for lyon. Since I'm on Snow Leopard with my HD3 system, i stayed on 9.3 as there wasn't any reason to move to 9.6 for my self. To make it very clear! PT 9.3 is the most stable version for Snow Leopard and pt 9.6 was the version released for Lyon.

Hi, Thanks for all help. I've now got v9.6 up and running and i managed to start the thing. Now to figure out the rest, is there a getting started for beginners who are blind type podcast or tutorial available? If so i would love a link to it. /Krister 19 jan 2013 kl. 16:25 skrev CHUCK REICHEL soundpicturerecord...@gmail.com: Hi Krister, As my friend Michael Pearson-Adamsfrom Avid told me when I was considering moving to PT 9.6 PT 9.6 was the first pt 9 that was tweaked for lyon.

You need 9.06 for lion. Kevin
Re: protools vs sonar with caketalking
Anyone tried midi editing with Garage Band yet? I know it has great sounds and soft synths, and audio editing is doable, but as a strictly audio guy myself, no experience with midi, but imagine it could be didited in the same fashion audio would be. One of you midi guys should give it a shot and report back maybe? On Jan 15, 2013, at 6:30 PM, Slau Halatyn wrote: Hi Thomas, Things are changing and moving forward with accessibility. It'll be a long-term prospect but, since Avid has committed to making accessibility improvements, they themselves suggested that this should apply across the board, so that would include Sibelius. Don't hold your breath because, again, it's a long-term. Still, it's encouraging. Cheers, Slau On Jan 15, 2013, at 11:27 AM, Thomas Böttcher wrote: Hi guys, I'm interested in recording soft synths and also recording some audio like my piano plus voice etc. I'm currently using sonar and the caketalking scripts under windows, running bootcamp on my mac. In short, for all my other programs I am a convinced mac user. I'm experiencing some serious stability issues with sonar and windows and I'm slowly getting really sick of that. About one and a half years ago I heard for the first time a podcast by kevin Reeves about pro tools being accessible and was really thrilled. However, back then he concluded with the notion that it was great for recording audio but not if you wanted to record soft synths and work a lot with midi editing etc. That was one of the main reasons I went for sonar back then. Could anyone on this list advice me if there has been any significant progress on that matter. Another reason for me for going for sonar back then was the extensive documentation provided especially for blind users by dancingdots, since I was a total new comer on this subject. I don't expect the learning curve on pro tools to be low, though. As composer/arranger I've produced my work as sheet music, however I want to be able to produce it as well using sophisticated soft synth sounds and sample libraries. Is that doable with pt? Well, that's about it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot! Cheers Thomas
Somewhat of an odd request, but need a little help
OK guys. I am in the market for getting a new keyboard to use with my ProTools setup. I have a few models in mind, but the one that really stands out is the Yamaha Motif. So, I have a few questions. First of all, I assume that this keyboard would be totally compatible with PT based on what I've read and seen. Second of all, here's the little favor I have to ask. I know that a butt load of you don't do this stuff as a hobby, but more as a living to put food on your table, clothes on your back, and nappies on your kids bum bums, OK, juwst kidding on the last one, LOL! but bottom line is, you don't do free work, nor do I expect anyone to, but hear me out on this. I also understand this is probably not exactly the list to ask this, so I'm gonna keep this very direct, to the point, short and sweet, and very sparing. Basically, I've looked at a Motif, yes. but the thing is, within PT, I'm wanting to use the main samples that come on the keyboard itself, so I'd probably run it through it's line out, into my interface. The only thing is, I've heard some of the samples, like the grand pianos a few of the guitars, maybe a few of the drum kits, etc. but I never really have heard them in context. I've heard a few sequences which have been done but it didn't really give me a good idea, as it's not really exactly the style I'll be doing. With this said, I'm not going to sit here and ask any of you to do Beethoven's fifth synthany or something complex, don't worry, that's not even my style, but rather let's take this real easy. I want to hear something in context, a song that I actually know and can follow, so that I can better not only hear the samples in context but can even know what exactly I'm listenning for. With music I don't know, it's hard as I don't exactly know where things should go in the first place. I don't want anything major, but if any of you on here have a motif, and a way to patch it through PT, using the internal sequencer just within the Motif itself, and all onboard samples, nothing from a soft synth what so ever, let's just say something with only 2 chords the whole way through, just basically C, and G/G7. It's not really my choice of music, but it's something very easy that I don't think would take much any effort to do. Could someone maybe make me an mp3 of basically piano, drums, base and maybe guitar doing Skip to my Lou? I know again this isn't really the list to ask this per sey. I promise I'm not gonna keep asking. I'm making this one request, and that'll be the end of it, no questions asked. I cross my heart! I just want to hear in real time what I'm getting. This way, I can better decide if indeed the motif really will have the sound I'm looking for when certain samples are combined. I don't need anything done real fancy. Just wsomething like this simple that will give me an idea. If willing, my e-mail address is: clgillan...@gmail.com I also know this probably will not happen over night. Take all the time you need. If it takes upward of a week, that's fine. Just let me know however that if I am willing to be patient, you will do it for me. This way I keep in the loop. OK, enough said. I'm finnished. I won't ask anymore on list about this being it's a bit off topic. That's my sincere whole hearted promise, so help me god. Chris Gilland.
