Re: transposing
BTW, your other option, although I feel that transposing the keyboard itself is the best, is to use the Audio Suite Pitch plug-in to change the pitch of the original audio, record the MIDI, go back to the original audio and transpose the MIDI notes. The artifacts of the audio transposition will be fairly poor but good enough for reference. Duplicating the playlist at the outset is a must, of course.

Re: voiceover and reading meters
Thanks Slau, so what do I do to make sure my meters read correctly in regards to the page up key?

Re: voiceover and reading meters
When you're in the mix window and the tracks that you want to work with are shown, just press Page Up and re-check those meters. Page UP scrolls the window, hopefully bringing the problematic track into focus visually, and once that's happened, things should start working as expected with VoiceOver. If you've got a lot of tracks shown, you might need to rinse and repeat the procedure a couple of times.

Re: transposing
As far as I know, you have to do it within the instrument plugin of your choice. Either that, or do it from the controller itself. My only concern is, if you do the ladder, yeah, audibly it might sound ok, but once you play it back, will it remain transposed?

Re: transposing
Personally, maybe I'm an extremist, but my advice is don't transpose! That's a crutch! OK, if you need to bang something out really quickly, and it has to be done, like, now? then OK, do it if you absolutely absolutely must, but frankly, you're never going to get better if you don't just try. I, for the longest time cheated and used transpose. Well, that went over real real freaking well when I was asked to play Oh Holy Night at a Christmas candlelight service. Oh, never mind the fact that they wanted me to do it in C Sharp major, then modulate up to D sharp major. Boy was I in for a rude awakening that night, seeing that they had no keyboard. All they had was a true baby grand piano. So, I couldn't cheat, even if I wanted to. And being the church orchestra was playing along with me, it's not like I could a lowered it to C, modulate to D, no one'll notice unless they have perfect pitch. It wasn't that easy. I knew I was doomed! I got through it, but only by the hairs on the back of my scrawny kneck. From that point forward, I made it a huge priority to never, never never ever ever ever! use transpose again, if I at all could help it. Now that I am quite confident in all 12 keys, I feel I could now have gotten through that performance quite easily, which to me is very very rewarding! Just a word of encouragement, I know some keys feel real real awquard. Trust me, oh, baby, don't I know it! But stick with it! Keep practicing, as though it won't come over night, you will! build the muscel memory. I promise you!

Glad it worked for you. Cheers, Slau On May 18, 2015, at 11:43 PM, John Gunn g...@tznet.com wrote: Slau, I appreciate the work you did and works like a charm.

Once They're in there among other folders with presets, launch Pro Tools and, while in the plug-ins window, directly to the right of the insert pop-up menu, you'll see Factory Default. Click there and now you'll see submenus with the presets for the Click II plug-in.

My plugins folder is in the default home directory/documents/Pro Tools. I need to know where to copy the files to then where in Pro Tools setting up a click track. I guess my question is where to copy the files and where to navigate in Pro Tools to access those files. Hope the above is kind of clear. smile John On May 4, 2015, at 10:50 AM, Slau Halatyn slauhala...@gmail.com wrote: Just an update on the Click II presets. While it's easier to initially change the parameters with the follow meter parameter off, I've found that proper playback pretty much requires the metronome to follow the meter of the session even if it's a default meter value. since the presets remember the follow meter setting, I've updated the presets to follow the session meter by default. Here's a new compressed folder of the presets: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3016244/Click%20II.zip Slau -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Pro Tools Accessibility group.

thanks chris. yep, dead easy to do in x band 2, Should have looked there last night. how ever all done now. Cheers mate.

Re: transposing
Agreed. learn to play in some more keys! It'll do you some good! (grin) I was at a blues jam once with supposedly a famous well-known keyboard player sitting in. This guy was on some recordings people might recognize. Anyway, someone calls Every Day I Have the Blues in B-flat. The drummer counts it off and we're in, except whoops, the keyboard player is in C major! The band stops, he says quietly oops I forgot to hit this transpose button, and suddenly he's in B-flat. He had been playing in C all set. Yes I know, to the audience it doesn't matter, and it shouldn't matter to anyone, even us snobby musicians. (grin) But it was just amusing after we'd all been told how big a deal this guy was. Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Pro Tools Accessibility group.

Re: transposing
actuallySlau, that’s what i did in the end. and it worked fine, as you say, pretty rough artifacts, but it got the job done. My issue is my midi controller does not have a transpose button, I never worried about this, because in sonar i could do this no problem, just change the key, and what i played in was transposed swell. So looks like a bit of a rethink with p t. maybe a new midi controller is on the cards. Steve On 18 May 2015, at 11:21 pm, Slau Halatyn slauhala...@gmail.com wrote: BTW, your other option, although I feel that transposing the keyboard itself is the best, is to use the Audio Suite Pitch plug-in to change the pitch of the original audio, record the MIDI, go back to the original audio and transpose the MIDI notes. The artifacts of the audio transposition will be fairly poor but good enough for reference. Duplicating the playlist at the outset is a must, of course.
