Chuck, you say UAD plugs are now accessible in 12.8? I always wanted to enter

Pro Level may be worth a look. Doesn’t cover all the meter types but maybe 
useful.
. TheOreoMonster, 6 seconds ago. ProLevel - hashtag MacAppStore 
itunes.apple.com/us/app/proleve… 


Also BX Meter is on sale this month, maybe worth grabbing the demo to see if 
its usable as Brainworks stuff tends to work decently well with screen readers.

Hi in my opinion FireWire is pretty much dead, yes you still get the
converters to connect FireWire devices to newer Mac's, but buying a new
FireWire device at this stage when you can go for thunderbolt directly,
won't be such a smart move.

Thunderbolt is much newer technology with much faster throughput and it will
be supported for some time to come, where some manufacturers already started
discontinuing support for FireWire.

 

As for your issue of only having one thunderbolt port, most fundable devices
monitors, drives, and audio interfaces,  have more than one port on them
which allows you to daisy chain devices.  Look for a interface with 2
Thunderbolt ports, run out off your computer into the interface, and out of
the Interface into your monitor. 

 

Look at the Focusrite Clarett interfaces, just keep in mind from what I
understand there Control software isn't accessible on the Mac.

Re: Thunderbolt or Firewire

2017-08-25 Thread CHUCK REICHEL
Hi Nickus,

Totally agree!
Firewire will soon be on display at the "smithsonian institute"! ;)
Heres a suggestion for you;
Universal Audio Apollo DUO
U get the uad plugs with it and the parameters  show up fine in PT.
Also it takes the load off your mac book pro for the uad plugs which are 
accessible in pt 12.8.
I have a Apollo DUO just for the plugs the Apollo has 2 thunderbolt ports.
I hang a thunderbolt hd on the Apollo at the end of my thunderbolt chain.
another option is to get a thunderbolt hub for your box.

Talk soon
Chuck

RE: Thunderbolt or Firewire

2017-08-25 Thread Phil Muir
Doesn't matter really because firewire is still a good choice.  Also you are
still future proofed because as long as there's thunderbolt then chances are
you can get a firewire to thunderbolt converter and still use the firewire
device.

Subject: Thunderbolt or Firewire

Hi All,


I need to choose a new audio interface, and looking around suggests that 
Thunderbolt may be better than FireWire.   I only have one Thunderbolt 
port which is used by the monitor, so what would be the best way of 
connecting an interface?


Secondary question, do you have a recommendation for an interface with 
at least 4 (but not more than 8) independent inputs and MIDI in, from 
the likes of Focusrite or Mackie, whether TB or FW?

Best,

Peter

RE: Accessible loudness meter plug-ins for mastering

2017-08-25 Thread Phil Muir
Hey Nickus.  That's one reason I still work in Windows as I can use the TT
Dynamic Range meter to check levels when mastering in Samplitude using
iZotopes oZone 6 Advanced.  Can also easily check LUFS in Sound Forge 11
again on Windows.  Don't know of any tools like this on Mac OS.  Also the TT
Dynamic range meter is now discontinued.  It's been replaced by the MAAT DR
Meter witch is inaccessible because it uses the Juce platform.  I have been
in touch with MAAT who develop this and there isn't anything that can be
done at the moment but they would like to make it accessible if at all
possible.  Really glad I have some great tools on Windows to do this.

Hi all
Are their anyone who found a usable loudness meter plug-in enabling you to
master to specific loudness standards? From time to time I must master some
things for TV or radio and I'm finding this harder and harder to do with the
enforcement of loudness standards getting more strict.

All these type plug-ins like Izotope Loudness Controll are purely visual,
making them impossible to use for a blind person. Anyone came across a semi
accessible plug-in or have some clever work around? I'm sure there are some
of you on this list who came across this problem before, I know there's
someone on here who does a lot of mastering, I can't remember the name now.
