Example of band in a box with ProTools

2016-05-25 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Guys, here is an example I did pretty much strictly in BIAB to give you an idea 
what this software is cabable of doing.

Firstly, let me say that all of the samples in this file were from BIAB.  there 
is not a single live instrument in the whole thing.  Every single instrument 
was from the Real track soundbank library that comes with the program.  If you 
get the ultimate version, which is what I own, then the entire sample library 
is literally speaking just over 80 gigs in size.  You'll know why when you hear 
this.  Trust me!

All I did with ProTools on this was to import the raw wave stem tracks which 
were generated by BIAB, run some leveling, E queueing, and a teeny, and I do 
mean a teeny! bit of compression.  Everything else was totally BIAB.

I'm sorry, but Music Memos for iOS was totally, after playing with this for 
about 45 minutes quite thoroughly not even remotely able to come close to this 
type production.

Anyway, for what it's worth, here you all go.  I did a song you all should be 
fairly familiar with.  That way, you all would know what exactly to be 
expecting.

Re: Band in a box in combination with ProTools?

Just tried it.  Absolutely not!  I very very much appreciate the attempted 
help.  NO, really, seriously, I do, but this doesn't even  come close! not 
even remotely, to what BIAB can do.

The iOS music Memos app from apple seems to do a lot of similar things to 
Band in a Box. Try that and see if its sufficient for you. Thanks to the 
magic of iCloud it should sync to your mac and be available in Logic/GB when 
you are done so you can bounce the wavs out there and import into pro tools 
as well.

stinks, and believe me, though respectfully, I let them know it!


I just can't afford gambling $500 or more on something that won't work. 
No music store in my area has a demo system set up on the mac with it 
installed either.  Otherwise, I'd just set up a time to go in and try it.


Honestly, BIAB is so mission critical to my work, that it's really the 
only reason I've not totally done away with Windows.  If it wasn't for 
that one app, and I do mean, literally! just! that one? app, I'd go 
macintosh all the way, hands down, no questions asked.


Any thoughts?

 Pretty much anything that has automation parameters is going

generally not accessible is the presets. Once the presets are 
accessed and saved as .tfx files, they can be shared. Incidentally, 
the Logic sounds can be accessed from within Pro Tools by using 
Soundflower. There are videos and tutorials online on how to do 
this dating back to Pro Tools version 11. I did it back then and it 
does work. I haven't done it in a while but it's certainly 
possible. You might want to look into that. Aside from Logic's

Wo! I haven't been following this thread, so forgive me.  Did I hear that 
Native Instruments is now accessible with ProTools?

I have heard the native instruments demo, and it will be ProTools 
compatible. The self voicing part of this uses the Apple system voice, so it 
can run standalone or in any plug and host. Really excited for this new turn 
of events, and the minute that this access  is built into the next version 
of complete, I will be ordering complete ultimate with the 61 note 
controller. The built in sounds that come with ProTools suck royally, 
structure has proven itself to be less than desirable, so I am ready for 
some really great sounds for ProTools. This type of access couldn't come 
soon enough.

Hi Joy,

I'd imagine it's the same kind of deal with the OmniSphere stuff. The 
trouble, of course, is that, like Native Instruments' stuff, we're talking 
about thousands of sounds so saving out presets to TFX format is virtually 
inconceivable.


Yes, Rogue Amoeba did put out LoopBack a little while ago and I purchased 
it but haven't tried it yet.

Hi Slau,
thanks so much for your reply. As for your suggestion concerning 
SoundFlower, I checked it out, and it looks like it is currently not

has some other great products out, like Audio Hijack.

Thanks for pointing me that way.
As for virtual instruments, I haven't taken the plunge into buying any,

All I know is what we all know: Native Instruments is a no-no. But what

that would be great.

Hi Joy,

Pretty much anything that has automation parameters is going to be 
accessible. The only aspect of virtual plug-ins that is generally not 
accessible is the presets. Once the presets are accessed and saved as 
.tfx files, they can be shared. Incidentally, the Logic sounds can be 
accessed from within Pro Tools by using Soundflower. There are videos 
and tutorials online on how to do this dating back to Pro Tools version 
11. I did it back then and it does work. I haven't done it in a while 
but it's certainly possible. You might want to look into that. Aside 
from Logic's stock sounds, which third party virtual instruments have 
you used in Logic?

Anyways, would appreciate any input on this.

RE: Round-Call: Software-Instruments for PT

2016-05-25 Thread Phil Muir
This was posted by Rick Alfaro  over on the MIDIMag list.

Posted below is a message from Andre Louis, the person that did the Native
Instruments Complete Control demo file. He asked me to please post this for
him on this list since he is not subscribed. This is a cut and paste from a
Twitter direct message. Feel free to email Andre if you have any questions
or wish to discuss this with him directly.
---Begin message---

Hello everyone.
Firstly, I'd personally like to say that I'm grateful for all the emails
I've received regarding the Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol system with
speech.
I have been asked however, not to disseminate the information to the general
public, as such.
I am free to discuss it, and even to show the demo as I have done, but I
sent it to individuals, not to a mailing list. As it is unreleased software,
of course it is subject to change without warning, and because of that, it
is not up for discussion in-public. that also means via methods available to
those using a search engine.
For queries, you will come directly to myself, available on twitter freely
via @OnjMusic, or if you prefer email, please use onj.lo...@gmail.com.

The contact I have cultivated at NI is incredibly willing to hear from you
all with any questions, but has asked that I pass them along so he doesn't
get too bombarded with emails.
I respect that he's allowing me to discuss this at all, so please respect
the decision not to discuss my demo in a public forum. I'm not asking for
much, other than to stay out of potential trouble with a company who is just
now willing to work with us on providing access to software we previously
did not have access to.

Kindly abide by this and we will have no problems at all. I myself have just
purchased the Komplete Kontrol S61 and await access to the software.
I fully intend to do a live Q session with interested parties when it
arrives, and we can work something out at a date convenient to those
interested in this topic.

Sincerely

Andre Louis

2016-05-25 Thread Kevin Reeves
I was asked not to share it. 
The version of complete that will incorporate this accessibility feature will 
be coming out in credibly soon. Then, I think Andre will allow people to share 
the demo. He showed it to a couple of us. I'm not sure who shared it over on 
the other list, but they did so without his consent.
