Re: OT, an incredible stem extraction software

[Gordon Kent]

Well, if it gets you the individual parts separated, you can always do the
processing in reaper itself. I kind of had the feeling that this whole
concept is similar to Miller Diane, perhaps Miller Diane on steroids. It
certainly would be worth a look. I wonder what the limitations of the demo
or.

Re: OT, an incredible stem extraction software

[Gordon Kent]

Unfortunately, I would imagine that making this software accessible would
be next to impossible. I am sure that it relies heavily on isolating
specific components in the wave forms of the audio. Being able to identify
these components would be very difficult. It is an amazing concept though.
We certainly are in very exciting times now as far as audio production is
concerned. I work with someone who does enjoy playing around with stuff.
I’ll see if he can be interested in checking out the demo.

Re: what is right, to usWHat is Correct for a pitch correction plugin?

[Gordon Kent]

Autotune is quite resource intensive.  If you 
need to apply it to a number of tracks, you may need to freeze them.  I have 
the uaaudio dsp cards and they have autotune so they have their own processing.

  You can certainly send vocals to an auxiliary input and instantiate a

it'll work fine. Otherwise, most tuning plug-ins will not work on polyphonic

don't really use Waves plug-ins so I can't comment specifically on their tuning

but i saw a video on youtube, from Protools expert, and he put the Wavetune

And this will lead me to ask, what about COmpressors also?
must i put the compressor on each track, or i can put it on an oxelary and

Re: New Remote Control Option

[Gordon Kent]

   I have my doubts as far as usability for 
us concerned.  It's hard enough to control a mouse cursor with hands.  Feet 
are much more difficult to control.  Now one advantage would be that opticon 
users could actually track the mouse cursor while moving it with the foot 
controler.  I always thought that might have some potential, strapping a 
mouse onto a boot or something.  So for the few of us who still have 
opticons, it could open up a world of possibilities for things that are not 
accessible at all, assuming there is enough color contrast on the display 
for the opticon.  Maybe one of these days, who knows?

I've tried toe omf stuff a few times.  You don't get

you need to freeze all of your soft synth tracks.  You'll do as well just to

Re: upcoming access to Superior drummer

[Gordon Kent]

   I bought superior drummer a long time 
ago and used it with some success on windows with Sonar, though it did take 
a lot of poking around.  I have the stock library and the nyc library and I 
think the Nashville one too.  It would be great to revive it because the 
natural drum sounds are much better than even the stuff that comes with 
komplete.  Do you think any work will be done with structure that would 
enable us to load our own samples into it including sound fonts or maybe 
kontak, which also let's you do that.  I am still dreaming of the day I can 
load some of my custom sampled instruments into pro tools.

Subject: upcoming access to Superior drummer

Folks,
Some of you may have noticed that Sweetwater is having a sale on Superior 
Drummer expansion packs. Unfortunately, their sale of Superior Drummer 
itself is over but I thought I should mention something for your 
consideration. Flo Tools 2.0 is on the way. We don't have a specific release 
date but it's coming soon. Without getting into details, one of the new 
features will include the ability to map coordinates for invisible items in 
the Plug-In window. This means that a product like Superior Drummer, which 
has a lot of tabs, edit fields and  pop-up menus that are not automated can 
still be accessed to a large extent. At the very, very least, one can access 
libraries, load presets, customize instruments and bounce out individual 
drum mics. That alone is an enormous step forward and I'm working on mapping 
as much as possible in the coming weeks. I'm confident that we'll ultimately 
have access to the majority of the interface. So, that said, anyone truly 
interested in Superior Drummer and its expansion libraries might want to 
consider this half-off sale. By the way, the EZ Drummer libraries all work 
with Superior Drummer as well, of course, and those libraries are even more 
affordable. There are a ton from which to choose so do your research and ask 
questions.


Some might recall that, when Keyboard Maestro was on sale about a month 
before the release of Flo Tools, Rocco and I posted messages that folks 
should really get it while it was on sale. Well, we're essentially saying it 
again, only now for Superior Drummer libraries.

Re: future network authorization for iLok License Manager

[Gordon Kent]

   Does this mean that I can have my iLok 
connected to my mac running pro tools, but as long as my mac is up and 
running I could run something like ivory on my PC without having to 
disconnect the ilok from the mac and plug it into the windows machine.  That 
is something I would use because I still go back and forth between pro tools 
and Sonar from time to time.

Re: bcf2000 with PT

[Gordon Kent]

Thanks for the tips.  I tried it on sends and 
it works.  I knew about the arming of tracks, but not selecting.  I’m surprised 
they wouldn’t have just used shift alone with the encoders.  II It would be 
nice to be able to move through locate points.  It would be great to be able to 
control plugins, especially with that flotools implementation.

Subject: Re: bcf2000 with PT

Not tested yet, but it goes anyway some stuff I found about the BCF2000 
controller functions.


We can adjust track pan values; the "Store" button toggles the encoders between 
L/R for stereo track panning, while the 4 "Encoder Group" buttons under the 
screen determine the track send levels. It's possible to adjust with the 
encoders (Send A, B, C or D).



We can record-enable tracks by pressing the corresponding track encoders, 
and/or select them by holding Shift (the "Edit" button) and pressing the 
encoders. The Encoder Groups control the send levels of a track. E.g. We set up 
the reverb sends on Send A of every track, press the first Encoder Group button 
and the encoders now control the level of Send A, and the LED rings will show 
the level. If there is no send on a track, the LED's wont light up. We can do 
this for the first four sends (A-D) of each track by using the 4 Encoder Group 
buttons. So, yeah, we can push down on the rotary dials, lol! The record 
enabled is a huge help.



Concerning plugin's; Curious that if we open up plugins in pro tools now there 
is a red box around some of the switches and dials that was not there before 
started using the controller. That looks like pro tools showing which dials, 
faders and switches can be controlled by the bcf2000.



Well, it goes a diagram that shows the control mapping for the BCF2000 in Baby 
HUI emulation mode:
http://www.behringerdownload.de/BCF2...tion_modes.pdf

We can pretty much just use the template above to see the button layout and 
look at the manual below, for the baby hui controller to see what every single 
function does in the bcf2000 and how to do it. There is no mention of plugin 
control in the manual though, too bad...
http://www.mackie.com/pdf/BabyHUI_UG.pdf



Didnt find stuff concerning moving to locate points.

I’m pretty much quoting, bringing the experience  of guys with good vision, 
anyway hope this helps. Let us know how you go,

possible to select noncontiguous events.  If I’ve made a few flubs and want to 
delete them, I can select those noncontiguous events just like we can select 
tracks in the table.  I’ve never tired it, but it might be possible to set a 
bunch of notes to the same velocity or length  that way.

Re: Witch Mac?

   Maybe not yet, but they are getting stronger all 
the time.  Even Garage band can handle 32 tracks of audio now.  Only folks 
like us who are working in a professional capacity really need the full 
potential of a pro daw.  A friend of mine was complaining because his 
company is making him use an iPad to handle sales accounts and the like.

a handy little trick I discovered

[Gordon Kent]

I was in a situation where I wanted to rename a bunch 
of tracks.  I selected all the tracks, then went into the context menu and 
pressed r and enter.  I renamed the first track and hit enter.  I was 
automatically brought to the next track to rename it.  It’s much easier than 
having to go into the menu every time.

Hi guys. i’m just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Basically i’ve

often crash. This all so happens a lot when i use the item chooser. I’ve 
noticed this on both my machines.


I am all so running p t 11, so i’m wondering if this is a known behaviour, 
and whether it may be addressed in pt 12. If anyone has seen this, is there 
something i can do to stop this happening.

Hello Slau, thank you for that.  I'll need to buy a specific keyboard to
work with Integra for the Integra settings.


On 25/06/2016 23:51, Slau Halatyn wrote:

Hi Samuel,

first, regarding tuning of individual drums, that's something you'll need 
to do from the Integra rather than from within Pro Tools. As the Integra 
is an external module rather than a virtual instrument, the editing of 
sounds would need to be done on the unit itself. That said, I'm aware that 
there's an IOS app that offers some degree of access for editing the 
Integra. I've had limited success and haven't spent much time with that 
app so I can't offer any guidance on that front. Further, if I'm not 
mistaken, I think I heard about an editor application for the Integra. 
I've never used it but it's entirely possible that it does exist and 
perhaps it might offer some degree of accessibility. It's probably a 
cross-platform application so I wouldn't have high hopes but who knows.


In terms of editing MIDI Events, I've pasted below a series of steps that 
were geared more toward trouble shooting problems somebody was having with 
editing events in the MIDI Event List but it should give you a picture of 
some of the steps you'll need to take. Hope it helps.


Slau

1. I'd make sure no other applications are running except Pro Tools.
2. I would close all windows except for the Mix and Edit windows and I 
would keep the Edit window as the foremost window.
3. I'd press Control-Option-f2 twice in a row to open the window chooser 
menu and make sure that there are no other windows like system dialogs 
open.
4. I'd enter the approximate bar/beat location where I want to edit by 
using the numeric keypad.

5. I'd press Option-= (equals) to open the MIDI Event List.
6. I'd use voiceOver to navigate to the value I want to change.
7. I'd click once on that event to select it.
8. I'd press Command-h to make sure the event is focused visibly in the 
MIDI Event List window.

9. I'd navigate to the field I want to change.
10. I'd simply use Control-Option-Shift along with the Space Bar twice to 
double-click the field.
11. I'd type in the value I want and I'd press Return on the qwerty 
keyboard and I mean Return not Enter on the Numeric keypad.

Re: Aux channel question

[Gordon Kent]

   You may want to assign the output of tracks 
to an aux track if you are using the aux track as a sub mix, e.g. backing 
vocals or drums.  Then you can insert plug-ins that will effect all the 
tracks assigned to that aux track.

Hi John,

Language can be quirky so, when you say, "move the sends to the Aux 
track," it can be taken a couple of ways. What you want is for both your 
audio track and your Aux track to be set to output to your main outs. The 
audio track's send should be set to output to the Aux input, usually 
through a bus and the Aux track's input source should be set to the same 
bus. This can all be done more or less automatically by choosing "New 
Track" from the contextual menu when assigning a send. Pro Tools will 
assign an available bus and name both the bus and Aux input track by 
whatever name you choose and automatically do the routing. the only thing 
you'd have to do after the fact is instantiate the desired plug-in on the 
track. That's one aspect of the resulting dialog that would be helpful to 
include, a means to assign the plug-in right from the same dialog. At any 
rate, hopefully, that helps.

Re: Is structure free a dead issue?

[Gordon Kent]

I actually did buy independence a while 
back and it did have possibilities.
  I really want to be able to import some of my own samples though.  I think 
independence will import sound fonts.  If you are really starting to get 
somewhere with samplitude, you might want to think about doing a pod cast when 
you get a chance.  I did set custom highlights to determine what was the 
current track.  Are you able to determine if a track is armed or soloed etc.?  
I do like the way plugins are displayed, with the option to have the list of 
parameters like reaper does.  That four parameters in sonar’s inspector is so 
limiting.  YOu would think they would change that.

tools on the Mac like Superior Drummer 2 would be great.  Although I also work 
in Windows

And have Independence available to me in Samplitude Pro X2 Suite which is 
accessible so that could be an option for you.  Independence ships with tons of 
great hi quality samples in all kinds of styles.  It’s something like 70GB of 
data so not bothering with it here as don’t use samples much in my work flow at 
the moment.  Personally like to have as many tools available to me as possible. 
 Still the great news is that now got Superior Drummer 2 working in Samplitude 
so it’s nice to have another high quality DAW available on the Windows side 
that is significantly newer and sounds sonically better than Sonar 8.5.3.  
Talking of which, this will be a free update for any Superior Drummer 2 users 
who have purchased the HSC sets for use in Sonar who want it.  It’s also great 
to be able to edit automation after the fact and apply affects to clips or as 
they call them in Samplitude, objects all non destructively.  Finally, 
absolutely not knocking editing MIDI in PT however, it’s way easier to do in 
Samplitude.

Just wondering; is access to structure free a no go?  I know there are 
presets available for the full version.  This is the one major roadblock with 
pt at least for me, since I do a lot of midi work.  Being able to load user 
samples would really be nice.

Hi Gordon, 

Yes structure free presets from at least pt version 9 work on pt 12.5.
I brought them over from pt 9.03 and put them into pt 12.5 and the 63 or so 
presets do work. :)

I've been recording to an SSD for the past three years. No problems here, and I 
  Have recorded eight tracks at a time when recording multi track. This is 
directly to the OS drive.  ProTools has been snappy, and incredibly responsive. 
Not only that, but I'm also playing sample libraries off of the exact same 
drive. Not to mention, this is all on an antiquated 2009 MacBook Pro.  When I 
got into this whole SSD thing, Brian Smart told me a long time ago that due to 
the speeds of SSD, I would no longer have to compartmentalize everything that 
I'm doing. He has  proven himself right. I have a secondary hard drive in this 
laptop that is a 750 RPM spinning drive, and I actually noticed a performance 
loss when recording to it. So, the SSD wins. As far as avid not approving SSDs, 
I'm not sure what that's all about. All of the guys on ProTools expert swear by 
solid-state drives, and Have  said nothing about ProTools not working properly 
with it.

Hi Gordon, 

Assuming you're using an Apple Pro keyboard, it's the slash key to the left of 
the asterisk and not a Shifted back slash. The first time you press it, it'll 
enable the Start field and you can type your values. In this case, 35 then 
decimal then 7 (no need to type a zero) and hit Enter on the numeric keypad. If 
you want to get to the end field instead, type the slash key twice. That's the 
nutshell. Hopefully, someone else might have a copy of one of the posts I put 
together that details how to enter counter values.

Under the event operations you can do a tempo change in various ways. If you 
have a click in the session, you can experiment with various types of tempo 
changes.

HTH,
Slau

you need the newer update I understand but it may be cheaper and I know there 
is no learning curve there. I use my Presonus studio live for my console. It

  I am not going to take that chance. But all those surface issues you

  Hi Gordon I believe if you took your laptop in and have it rolled back to 
Mavericks or Yosemite your problem would be solved. If there is an issue that 
you need the newer update I understand but it may be cheaper and I know there 
is no learning curve there. I use my Presonus studio live for my console. It 
will not support El Capitan as well. I just bought a control surface and mackie 
MCU pro may not support it as well. I have heard that it did run with El 
Capitan.
  I am not going to take that chance. But all those surface issues you

Hi Gordon,

There were around 50 improvements in version 12.2. Since you were last 
using
11, I'd imagine the whole subscription thing passed you by. Your copy of 
11

will still work but you'll need to go for either a subscription model or
purchase a perpetual license. It works out cheaper to get the 
subscription
and you'll probably get some extra plug-ins to boot. I suppose your best

is to speak with Sweetwater. Let us know how it pans out, so to speak.

Getting PT back up and running

[Gordon Kent]

After a long hiatus, I finally got my mac book pro 
repaired.  This involved replacing the hard drive and other components.  So I 
have a very generic installation of el capitan.  IThe latest version of PT I 
have is version 11, which at that time I had running on Maverick.  This was an 
upgrade from a version 9/10 bundle.  When I try to open the disk image of pt11, 
I don’t see the installation program.  I know this has been discussed at 
length, but I didn’t pay attention.  So, do I need to install PT10 first and 
then run the upgrade to 11, or do I need to get version 12 to run this on el 
capitan?  I probably should go ahead and get 12 anyway, since there have been 
some accessibility improvements, but I just wanted to get things going now 
before shelling out more bread.  Thanks for any help.

Re: Can any Avid do the job?

[Gordon Kent]

   I certainly have never even seen one of 
these beasts, but it sure does sound exciting.  With one of those, you 
really are running PT as if it was a piece of hardware.  How many encoders 
are on each strip?  I wonder if you get any voice over feedback when you do 
stuff like arm a track or make selections and the like.  I doubt this would 
work with Tim's control surface app.

Subject: Can any Avid do the job?


Hi all,

Today I was totally absorbed in the control services of Avid, thanks to 
Pino. The artist mix, the transport and the artist S3.

The last one seems very promising, but also the most expensive one.
And finally, I must admid, there is indeed a very big leap between for 
example the behringer touch and the QCon versus the avid s3.

My question for now is:
Do any of you work with the avid s3 or the s2 or s1?
After watching more then 50 youtube video's I am convinced that the Avid 
brand is what I need.
All the tutorials were so that I now fairly know the layout of the s3 and 
everyone was using all controls instead of working the keyboard.
Plugins were no drama. Even better, when flipping, all the parameters in 
use, could be controlled not by the encoder knobs, but by the 16 
motorized faders.
I am very excited and like to know, if I have to buy the s3, or can the 
work also be done by the cheaper s1, with 8 motorized faders and less 
encoders? both with the avid transport.


Hope to hear from you guys,

Mac

Re: a slightly expensive lesson learned that may be of interest

[Gordon Kent]

   Well, let's see if it works better with el 
capitan and the repairs.  That battery definitely did swell up and force the 
touch pad up along with it.  Voice over shouldn't really put that much of a 
load on resources because it is operating down in the depths of the OS, 
unlike third party screen readers in windows, especially Jaws which is a hog 
because of the off screen model.

Hi Martin,

I opened the session and followed your steps and, yes, the deletion 
works fine.
One thing I did out of necessity is open the Edit window. By default, 
the session had only the Mix window opened. Without the Edit window 
being opened (even if it's just in the background), the numeric keypad 
commands for navigation wouldn't work.
One thing I would check on your newly created track is that the track 
view selector is set to waveform. If it's not, you'll hear the audio but 
what's actually displayed in the timeline is whatever is selected in the 
track view selector pop-up. That could be volume information or pan, 
send, mute information, etc. If you select and delete, the only thing 
you'd be deleting is whatever the track view is displaying. It won't 
affect the audio. Double-check that your newly created track is set to 
waveform in the edit window. If you don't see the track view selector, 
go to the track options button and make sure your track height is set to 
at least small and not micro or mini. Actually, you can also set the 
track view from the track options pop-up list even if the height is set 
to micro or small.

Let me know if that solves the issue.

Sure, I can share my experiences.

 

Back in 2005, my wife and I started playing together (officially). We 
needed a keyboard, but needed one fast, and with as little money as possible. 
At the time, neither one of us had a job. So, paying around $2000+ just for a 
portable keyboard was impossible. We settled on a PSR 450 which we still have 
and use on occasion. After some time, we realized that the PSR sounds were a 
far cry from professional sounds. However, we still had to use the PSR at live 
events because we had no other access to a professional grade portable keyboard.

When we wanted to record our songs, we held on to the hope that a DAW 
with instruments controlled by the midi specification would save us from a 
disasterous problem. We didn’t sound very good live, we couldn’t record 
anything useful, and we gave up after a point.

After all those years, both of us have poor playing techniques because 
we had to follow after the PSR sounds and styles. When looking for a keyboard 
replacement, one of the critical factors involved sound quality of the keyboard 
instruments. Since we have used the PSR for that many years, my ability to 
discern high quality sounds had vanished. Now, all of the sounds from any 
Yamaha make or model sounds exactly the same as the PSR. At least the basic 
fundimentals sound the same. It’s not good when you can’t tell the difference 
in sound between a PSR and Tyros 2. Unless my ears are still good, and there is 
no difference. We were also disappointed when listening to the Yamaha provided 
demos of different keyboard models. The audio demo on the website sounded 
impossibly good. However, when I went to the store to check one out, the sounds 
were flat and cheezy.

In either case, we are getting back into the playing music area again. 
After poor experiences with recording and playing, we need a new perspective on 
things… we also need new hardware! I have always heard that Yamaha was good. 
Unfortunately, my prospective on the brand might be a little off.

Whatever keyboard we end up with, it should be portable, very high 
quality, and whatever the price is, we will wait for it to come.

It should have the ability to connect to the line-in device in the studio

FYI, Pace just informed us that the upcoming release of the iLok License 
Manager, version 2.6, will have support for screen readers on both Mac and 
windows. The migration from QT4 to QT5 was more work than they expected 
(which has nothing to do with accessibility, per se) and they did run into a 
few bugs to work around in the accessibility implementation built into QT5. 
This week, they're adding a number of keyboard shortcuts. As a result of the 
delays, the release of version 2.6 is going to be more like mid November 
which is only a little later than originally projected. All in all, good 
news.


One thing to remember is that this first release is likely to have some 
issues and it won't be perfect out of the gate but, where there are 
problems, they'll get resolved in subsequent releases. Looking forward to 
having access once again…

Subject: Possible iLok issue need some advice.

Hi all,
Recently I'd say a month ago, I  began receiving, a wire exception
error when working in PT 11.3 on a  Mavricks Mac Book pro with 16GB of
ram. It often starts as a please insert an ilok to authorize Slate
FGX, but as my session goes on, I eventually get a Pro Tools can not
communicate with an iLok. At times, usually on start up,  I'll get a
message that pro tools can not be authorized because an ilok exception
has occurred. I have connected the iLok direct to my MBP, and all
other usb devices IE interface MCU, have not given me any problems
whatsoever, not sure if this is a USB problem with my Mac, or an
actual iLok hardware failure. I've read some blogs that reinstalling
PT 11 has fixed this for some but wanted to get some feedback from the
list prior to proceeding.
Thanks in advance.

Re: SFZ in pro tools

[Gordon Kent]

I went up and got sforzondo for the mac.  The only 
thing that I’m not clear about is how to refer to the correct path in an sfz 
file that is on the mac.  I guess I would try dumping the sfz file and the wav 
files all in the same folder.  It would be wonderful if this works.  Sforzondo 
does import sound fonts too.

Subject: SFZ in pro tools

I seem to remember a few days ago someone asking about sfz in Protools. Today i 
came across an article on pro tools experts with link to free samples of some 
classic Yamaha synths including a SFZ plug in. However its only a 32 bit 
version but the article mentions another free one that should work for current 
gen PT as its 64 bit. BTW i am not a MIDI user so i can’t vouch for 
accessibility of any of these plugs. If you try them report back to the group 
with your findings perhaps.

Hey Keaven
well to be honest, i downloaded the demo not long after I posted 
yesterday. i have to say, , i am wrapped in this plug.
TI’ve had a bit of a play, and the audio sweet panel seems accessable. 
although i’ve only done a few things, to basically worked. The pitch changer 
works well over a track. and i’ve adjusted tempo and other parametres using 
the parametric sound shifter using the audio sweet panel. .

I was able to process the results fine. Sounds pretty good i reckon.
I can’t speak for elastic audio as yet, as i am only just beginning to 
explore this myself. If you have any tips on how it works, with voice over, 
that would be great, but i’m sure google will be my friend there.
I am still a fairly new p t user, have only been running my studio on p t 
from feb this year. I dig protools. and so easy to find stuff out about it 
on the avid site.
How ever i’ve produced a number of albums on it so far with very good 
results. I find the audio engine in 11 quite warm.

A couple of questions.

When Sound Shifter is your preferred algorithm in the Pro Tools prefs, 
does this work in Elastic Pitch and time as well?

Also, is the audio suite panel quite usable? Thanks so much for any help.

Hi Brian,

You probably won't like my answer very much but, frankly, I've never read a 
gain reduction meter in Pro Tools as long as I've used it and that would be 
since 2002. To be honest, before that, even when I could actually make out a 
VU meter, I always relied on my ears. That said, naturally, I think it's 
something that should be accessible. In other words, for most people, it's 
not a deal-breaker but it's an issue that needs attention. For now, 
exaggerate your compression, back it off and trust your ears.


Best,

Slau

Re: Pace Ilok

[Gordon Kent]

   Hi:
I felt rather proud of myself a few days ago.  This is on Windows, but I was 
able to activate the ilok key for a demo of autotune 8.  This did involve 
using OCR with Jaws.  Once you click on the sign in button, which is 
recognized by the ocr, you will be on the username field.  Type in your user 
name and tab once to the password and enter that in.  Tab once and there is 
a check box remember password I think.  Tab again and you will be on the 
next button.  Press enter.  Do another OCR.  If you did everything right, 
you should see a fair representation of your ilok and the licenses on it. 
If something went wrong, you'll see an account problem message.  You'll 
need to press enter and retype everything.  Just to be sure, press end and 
backspace over any characters that are there.  When you are logged in, try 
running OCR after pressing tab several times.  If you see something like 
show all licenses, click on it and run OCR.  If you see the name of the 
license you want to transfer, right click on it.  This will bring up a menu 
but it won't be spoken.
 Pressing a should select the activate license option, but do another OCR 
to be sure.  Press enter.  You will be in the choose location dialog.  Do 
an OCR and find the name of your ilok and do that weird lock and release 
click. You should be asked do you want to activate?  Find OK or Yes or 
whatever and click it.  You should see successful.
I know this is not in any way a practical solution, and it doesn't let Pace 
off the hook, but if you really need to get your software going it's worth a 
try.   There obviously is no way to do this on a Mac with voice over.  I 
can't understand why a program that is strictly a utility like a license 
manager can't be writen as normal html or  in Java.  It's not like it has to 
look glitzy or something, it's just an installation for God's sake.

   I have just one 512 gig ssd drive and that 
works fine, but I have thought about removing the DVD drive and putting in 
another SSD drive for the audio and as a backup.  I wouldn't do that with 
mechanical drives in a laptop because that would be a lot of heat, but the 
ssd drives run   much cooler.  I'm surprised you've gotten away with using a 
usb 2 drive for streaming audio.  Maybe on a mac it just works better than 
on a pc.  I certainly would go with thunderbolt if possible.  What kind of 
audio interface will he be using?  If he is using a usb audio interface, a 
usb drive really wouldn't be a good idea because there just wouldn't be 
enough bandwidth for both.

Re: Incredibly strange problem with ProTools on Macbook Pro Mid 2012

[Gordon Kent]

   DO you really use the internal mic on your Macbook pro to record 
vocals?  I can understand playing back and even working on a mix with the 
internal hardware, but that mic is really meant for face book or Skype or 
whatever.  If you need to do a mix with headphones, you might want to 
consider something like the plantronics usb headsets.  I have one that is 
over ten years old and it works great.  I can even use it with iOS devices, 
and they sound quite good and are comfortable to wear.

Hi, No problem this is one feature I think should be added is if an
external interface is not connected it should automatically go to the
internal interface which it usually does unless you have virtual sound
drivers like the audio hijack pro instant on component pro tools
sometimes tries to use this instead of the pro tools device so I think
there should be an option to set the priority of sound devices.  Nick

You're not understanding my question.  I totally get! that is where to

again, you'll notice that he mentions setting this first before starting 
ProTools. So, what I'm saying is, how am I supposed to set that, if I 
don't have PT first running in the first place.  Does that make more 
since?


In other words, if ProTools isn't running to start with, then how am I 
going to get to the playback engine dialog?  Also, which device in there 
do I need to pick specifically, considering that it has internal 
microphone, built in output, and Airplay as 3 totally seperet devices? 
I'm not sure if it has an agregate device in there or not.  I don't 
recall there being one, but, I'll look again later today.

Nope. This has happened to me. No biggie. This happens whenever you 
boot pro tools, and it’s main interface is not present. If you know you’re 
gonna have to do that, just check your Playback engine before starting 
so you’re all good.

Re: Opinions Wanted On a Recent Mix

   Well, this sort of thing is very

But as it has been said, the customer's always right.

at all.  I think if you was to turn down the drums by maybe 1 to 1
and a half DB, I'd say 2 at most, pushing it to the extreme, you'd
be ok.  Yeah, you probably could have rolled off some of the lows of
the drums, especially the snare, but you'd want to be really careful
doing so.  You almost have it sitting where it needs to be, so if
you go too far with it, it's going to sound terrible, as there would
be no low ends at all.  I agree with Papa.  It's very good. There
is! an issue with the drums, I'll admit, but like him, I can't quite
put my finger on it.  Try turning them down about maybe a DB and a
half, then send it back to us to hear again.  That should! do the
trick. Pre-Processing, before you route the drums through any
effects, or compressers, etc. just the raw dry mix of the over all
drums, what is it peeking at with your meters at its highest point?

Hello Chris, nice overall mix. The only thing that stands out to

low frequencies that need to be cut and then boost some of the
higher frequencies around maybe 150HZ. Or, it could be a
compression thing I think I am hearing, either way, it sounds like
there is a little pumping between the kick and the bass. Keep in

Hi folks.

I mixed and mastered an easy listening track for Brian Howerton
recently, and since I haven't mixed something lighter like this
before, I thought I would ask for opinions on it. Here's a 48-second 
sample:

https://www.sendspace.com/pro/dl/7bhny7

So, what do you like and more importantly, what do you not like?
What would you have done differently?

For instance, I was too attached to the drum sound, but after
Brian asked for them to be turned down, I now appreciate the
improvement.  After all, without a vocalist, the piano really is
the main event here.

By the way, if this is your thing, contact Brian at
bshowert...@gmail.com Thanks Brian, for the work, and for patience
as I got my ears together, after not mixing for ages.

Chris

Chris,

Ivory II comes as either a package of three grand pianos or stand-alone 
pianos of each model. The Grand Pianos package is the best all-around with 
3 grand models. The American Concert D is a stand-alone package or you can 
add it to the collection to show up as AAX along with the other pianos. In 
other words, it's very flexible. I'm sure Sweetwater can explain it 
further. IMO, the Grand Pianos package with the German D, Bosendorfer and 
Studio Grand (Yamaha) is the best way to go.


The Ivory folder I attached goes into your Plug-in Presets folder within 
your Pro Tools folder which is probably in your Documents folder.

package?  I was under the impression that Ivory was just Ivory, however 
you dice it.  I mean, ok, I knew it had multiple different pianos and

So, when I call Sweetwater and tell them I want to get Ivery for the Mac, 
is it not enough to just simply say I want Ivery?  Do I need to specify 
to them which package?  Do I specificly need to tell them Grand Pianos 2, 
and the American Concerts D:?


Also, how much is Ivery?  I hear it's like $300 or so.

My final question is, I have PT 11, and Mavericks.  So, where do I need 
to unzip this file to which you gave me in order to make this work?

Luckily for the sighted help, the process is not difficult.

In my case, I recently picked up Eiosis Air EQ and some more things
from Slate Digital. In both cases, you get a license redeem code.

Run the iLok License manager, log in with your iLok account name and
password, and I suggest you have someone click the box to remember
this in future to speed things up.

On the left of the screen are your locations which can accept
licenses. Usually this is the name of your computer and any attached
iLok's which are detected.

On the right-hand side of the screen are all your licenses. Clicking
on a destination on the left may simplify the list on the right for
your sighted help by only showing which licenses are on that attached 
iLok.


There are four buttons on screen for doing things like redeeming
licenses, copying licenses, etc. You only see text which identifies
what each button does when you hover over them with the mouse. So
don't do what I did and ask your help to look for redeem or activate,
because they won't see that until the mouse is on the buttons.

Find the redeem button and click it, then paste in the long code you
got with your plug-in. Next, a destination dialog pops up and you
simply click on the name of your iLok. That's it.

It irritates me to no end that we can't do this ourselves, since

they needed to be sure that licensing worked in general with the new PT 
11, which I'm sure behind the scenes took quite some time and testing. 
Let's be 100 percent fair. They had bigger things on them at that time

It irritates me to no end that we can't do this ourselves, since
really, it's nothing more than a copy and paste operation.

I've totally lost all hope, as I most certainly haven't.  This however

crutially important this is!  When PT 11 was first released, I understand 
that they had a lot of things on their plate at that time, as they needed 
to be sure that licensing worked in general with the new PT 11, which I'm 
sure behind the scenes took quite some time and testing.  Let's be 100 
percent fair. They had bigger things on them at that time than to really 
worry right then about accessibility issues.  I'm not saying that it's an 
excuse to totally deny accessible access.  Please please please! don't 
misread what I am trying here to say.  All I'm saying is, it took a back

they had to deal with. I'm very much willing to respect that fact. 
Actually, I'm willing to respect it more than I initially anticipated that 
I would be.  This said however, we're a fair ways now into the 11.X cycle. 
I'm not exactly sure what the most recent 11 build is, Last I knew, I think 
it was like, 11.2, wasn't it?  Anyway, point is, I think they've had some 
time now to probably settle a bit down with stuff.  Again, don't 
misinterpret what I'm trying here to convey.  I'm not saying that 
accessibility shouldn't be a priority. It should be!  I just wonder if 
we're at a stable enough point where we can start contacting them again to 
figure out what is going on, and make sure they've not forgotten us.  I 
love ProTools, but this is the one pet peeve that I have which really 
irritates me to absolutely no end!

Re: Synthogy Ivory II Grand Pianos and AAX

[Gordon Kent]

   Hi:
I did manage to get something loaded from the ivory II library into the aax 
version in PT 11 a while back, but forget how I managed it.   I didd create 
some presets using the windows version when it was RTAS and then transported 
them to the mac, which I've done with some other plugs too like the Garitan 
stuff and spectrasonics Trilion, but Garitan has not gone AAX yet and I 
don't know if they ever will.  I'll check into the Ivory ssituation again 
but my macbook pro decided to blow out either a memory chip or the logic 
board itself, it just gives 3 beeps repeatedly when turned on which 
supposedly indicates one of those two scenarios, so I guess I need to go to 
the apple store down here and see what's up.  I have some problems with a 
couple of my iOS devices too so they're going to get some business from me 
tomorrow.

Good to know for the Windows users on the list. I don't use Windows. The 
stand-alone version comes in handy for those who want a quick piano without 
booting up a DAW. Of course, there are plenty of good sounding instruments 
out there for such a quick task. Ultimately, however, since most people 
looking for the ultimate piano are looking for it for recording purposes, 
the dAW will inevitably come into the picture and, since the AAX version is 
accessible, it seems the way to go. That said, for those looking for 
hardware solutions, the Roland Integra 7 has a fabulous set of pianos among 
other instruments in their Super Natural series. Sometimes having the module 
is a great thing, a scenario that is becoming more and more rare these days, 
sadly.


Best,

Subject: Synthogy Ivory II Grand Pianos and AAX

I know there was some mention of Ivory Grand Pianos on the list but I 
suspect it might have been before the AAX version came out. I attended the 
NAMM show at the time when Ivory was first  introduced. The stand-alone 
version seemed quite accessible. Of course, at the time, Pro Tools wasn't 
accessible so the whole virtual piano thing wasn't something that 
concerned me a great deal. Now that Synthogy put out an AAX version of the 
plug-in, I thought I'd take a chance and check it out.


The plug-in is fully accessible in Pro Tools. Ironically, now the 
stand-alone version seems not to be accessible although I can't confirm 
that categorically. There might be an initial screen that's preventing me 
from diving in deeper. I'll give an update on that if I have any success. 
Concerning the AAX plug-in, as expected, the library preset browser is not 
visible but, of course, those presets can be called up with sighted 
assistance and saved as plug-in presets. Someone posted the original Ivory 
presets a while ago and those are backwards compatible but there are a 
bunch of new presets for Ivory II. I'll share those when I have them 
ready.


For those unfamiliar with Ivory II, it consists of three main piano 
models: a Bosendorfer Imperial, a German Steinway and a Yamaha C7. Each of 
the pianos has several versions differing in dynamics resolution. The 
highest values have the highest levels of dynamics. Parameters such as 
sympathetic resonance, pedal noise, stick height, stereo perspective, 
among other parameters can be saved into presets. Regardless of preset, 
any of the parameters can be easily changed. Switching between pianos 
causes the parameters to reset so that's where presets come in handy for 
recalling favorite settings.


There's a new American Steinway D that is spectacular and can either be 
added to the Ivory II Grand Pianos library or used stand-alone or as its 
own AAX plug-in. I've gone through a bunch of virtual pianos and many are 
really quite good but ivory is the one by which all others are judged and 
it is truly spectacular. Since it's a streaming instrument, an external 
drive is pretty much a requirement and an SSD would be even more 
desirable. SSD drives costing what they do, the advantage, apart from 
performance, is that you don't need a backup drive since the samples come 
on DVD disks. In the highly unlikely event of an SSD failure, you always 
have a backup.


Anyway, just sharing the experience. As I said, one or two people on the 
list did mention it but there was never much of a discussion.

I have always thought that you needed to purchase the Mac version

Re: Help selecting tracks and audio in reaper on the mac

[Gordon Kent]

Hello:
You are right.  You would probably get more response to this question the 
midimag list.  That being said, although many of the buttons and controls in 
reaper are labeled for voice over, there really isn’t any practical way to 
navigate around and get any real work done.  At present, at least in my 
oppinion and I’m willing to try anything, I would put Reaper on the Mac in the 
“not very accessible” category.

Re: ProTools accessible on PC, true or false?

[Gordon Kent]

No, although sometimes with Jaws I have been able to create plugin presets 
because I could get into the interface of some third party plugs to load audio 
samples etc.  But for actually doing real work, forget it.

Re: ProTools accessible on PC, true or false?

[Gordon Kent]

Another thing is that the windows version is not nearly as stable.  I have 
always found it to be a crash fest.  And a lot of customization of the 
interface went into making it work with voice over, which actually replaces 
many aspects of the GUI.  Presenting items in tables and listing plug controls 
is not something that happens naturally within PT's interface.  Add to that the 
fact that dialog boxes in the windows version for doing stuff like creating 
tracks and the like don't behave like normal windows dialogs.   You do need to 
click on items and then use the arrows to go across options and such.  Yes, the 
shortcuts are there, but getting feedbackk is impossible, jaws is the only way 
to get even minimal info, and it is not scriptable or anything like that.  
Other than knowing whether you are in the mix or edit window, you are lost.  
Yes, you can poke aaround and get something on an insert of a track  with a lot 
of trial and error, and that is how I created some presets, but believe me, I'm 
pretty good at doing the unorthodox as far as access is concerned and this is a 
no go, though there are worse out there including cubase.

Re: ProTools accessible on PC, true or false?

[Gordon Kent]

Oh a long time ago around version 6, some things worked because the transport 
graphics had labels we could read with Jaws and tell what color they were.  But 
now there is virtually no way to know if a track is armed or even what track is 
currently highlighted.  There is no object level navigation because PT is a mac 
application first, and then it is ported over to PC with no regard to standard 
windows controls or hiarchy.  Excuse my spelling Nicole, I don't have spell 
check turned on on the mac because it steps all over voice over as you are 
typing and haven't completed a long word yet.

Re: my post on the Avid blog

[Gordon Kent]

Hey Slau:
that's a great summary of how things have evolved with PT.  Frankly, the only 
reason I need to stick with Sonar and windows is that I have such a huge 
library of sampled instruments that I have done that use the SFZ format.   At 
present, there is no aax SFZ player available for the Mac.  When we wer using 
RTAS the garritan engine which does support SFZ worked with Pro Tools, but 
nobody could tell me how to refer to the Mac folder structure in an SFZ 
definition file.  I tried putting the definitions and their associated .wav 
files in all kinds of folders but never got them to work, and now Garritan has 
pretty emphatically stated on their site that they have no plans to convert to 
the AAX format, which is rediculous since so many others have.  If we could get 
access to structure, the SFZ files could be converted to sound fonts and loaded 
into structure.  At this point, as far as instruments that are bundled with Pro 
tools are concerned, Structure is the real drawback for us.  A good usable 
sampler is a very important part of the production environment, especially for 
those of us who want to mix and match drum kits, custom sample instruments to 
our taste, and process vocals through synth modulators  etc.  I hope they 
haven't forgotten about this, as I said, it's really one  of the only reasons I 
haven't totally switched over to Pro Tools for the kind of stuff I do.  But 
know that I sincerely apreciate what you've done, I've gone through the same 
thing with my many years of association with cakewalk, which has put a lot of 
blind folks to independent work.  
Gord
On May 9, 2014, at 11:59 PM, Slau Halatyn slauhala...@gmail.com wrote:

 As some of you may already know, I was asked to write something for the Avid 
 blog regarding Pro Tools accessibility. The article was published this 
 afternoon at:
 http://www.avidblogs.com/music-daw-software-for-blind-and-visually-impaired-audio-professionals/
 Because of the way the story is laid out, it appears not to read entirely 
 chronologically. So, I've pasted the contents of that post below. There were 
 several photos in the post which are not included below.
 
 
 I was introduced to Pro Tools while enrolled in the audio program at Five 
 Towns College in Dix Hills, New York, during the mid '90s. Most of my early 
 training in college was on large format consoles and multitrack tape 
 machines, which were de rigueur in the studios of the day. Computers had 
 certainly found their way into the recording environment nearly a decade 
 earlier, but more so in the role of MIDI sequencers. 
 During the years I was in school, however, the digital audio workstation 
 (DAW) had gotten its foot in the door of the control room and the DAW that 
 led the way was Pro Tools, which I began to work with in my senior year. I 
 sat there in front of the monitor, staring at a graphic representation of a 
 waveform, wondering whether the hours I spent learning how to splice 
 quarter-inch tape with razors had been wasted...
 I had the advantage of taking a one-on-one  advanced digital audio class with 
 my professor as a result of my need to use adaptive software known as 
 inLARGE, a screen magnifying program for the Macintosh. Several years 
 earlier, I had been diagnosed with a retinal condition that impaired my 
 vision. When I entered  college, most of the gear I used was highly tactile: 
 mixing consoles, outboard processors, tape machine remotes, etc. By the time 
 I was preparing for graduation, things had already begun to change. Evidence 
 of this glowed from a VGA before me--everything, all under one roof, one box. 
 Little did I know that this was the paradigm of the future, and little did I 
 know that 20 years later, I'd be so closely involved with Pro Tools and its 
 accessibility for blind audio engineers and musicians.
 After graduation I started a recording studio of my own, BeSharp, in New York 
 City and for a number of years I kept one foot firmly planted in the analog 
 multitrack world while occasionally using a computer for virtual tracks 
 slaved to tape. As my vision gradually grew worse, however, it became more 
 difficult or even impossible to perform certain tasks at the studio. LCD 
 displays were dim, VU meters were a blur and tweaking outboard gear became 
 tedious. All the while, I was experimenting with an LE version of Pro Tools, 
 using the outSPOKEN speech synthesizer on my Mac to access it without having 
 to look at the screen. 
 With the introduction of Pro Tools HD, I finally made the jump over to the 
 digital world. For several years, everything went well. A small community of 
 blind Pro Tools users emerged and shared tips and techniques. While the 
 program was almost entirely accessible, the use of a control surface proved 
 to be indispensable for efficiency and tactile feedback. To me, it felt not 
 that much different from the old days, only now I didn't have to deal with 
 aligning my tape machines or worry 

Re: small interface to take traveling that works with pro tools 10 and 11

[Gordon Kent]

Hi:
the Roland capture x series interfaces are quite good.  I have the capture x 2 
which runs on 3 AA batteries or usb bus power.  You are of course better off 
with the batteries especially if you want to use condenser mics with phantom 
power.  the mic preamps are very adequate, and you can get the latency down to 
96 samples if you have a powerful enough mac book and are not loading up a ton 
of plugins.  It also will work with the apple camera kit on an iPad, there is a 
switch on the back to put it in to the appropriate mode.  And it does go up to 
96k  sampling and is very sturdy and compact.
It is usb2, I know you wanted thunderbolt, but this is surprisingly good.  
Firewire is on the way out as far as I can tell, though presonus still makes a 
mobile line of interfaces.

Re: audio interface for mack and pro tools

[Gordon Kent]

Well, the mic pres in the presonus are good, but you did get my other post 
about the problems with it.  They don't make the one I have any more so I can't 
speak for their newer stuff, but if you have the a/d option on your octa-pre 
you could use anything with adat optical inputs.  MOTU does make a light pipe 
only interface, but I don't know if it has any analog outputs to connect it to 
a mixer or whatever.  I did train somebody a long time ago who had one, but I 
forget what he was monitoring through.  
Tascam makes some pretty good interfaces with both analog and adat inputs  that 
are usb2.  I have one of the older ones but don't use it much, but I did have 
it working a while back in pro tools, though it was probably just regular lion 
then.  I don't know if they've gotten around to supporting Mavericks yet.  
Roland is also making bigger versions of their audio capture line, the little 
2x that I just got is really pretty good, running it down to 96 sample buffers 
with pretty good results.

 How ever, i'd also be interested in your thoughts on the pre sonus. I'm 
 pretty sure you said you use one. I know a lot of people on here, and also 
 midi mag use one. How do you find the mic press. I will not rule this unit

 I also bought an octo pree myself recently and i am very happy with the sound 
 i get out of it. If the pree sonus was of similar quality, I'd possibly go

 You bought back some memories talking about the old a dat machines. I did not

 But the same old stuff with waves at least on pt 9.03, get the presets saved

 Mike lockett told me that waves can be used in pt 11 now though.

Re: The T-pain affect Demo link

[Gordon Kent]

Hi:
I just gave it a try.  It's really not bad although a few parameters don't show 
up as automatable in sonar's inspector or whatever.  The one drag is that it 
doesn't accept midi input, too bad, but other than that it is pretty good.  I 
generally only use autotuning for an effect, not to try to make bad vocals 
goode, so this does that fine, though the tracking isn't quite as good as auto 
tune, but hey, it's like a quarter of the price, and it seems to be pretty 
resource efficient  in real time.  I'll probably get it, haven't tried iDrum 
but I wouldn't expect it to be very accessible.

 If you do the following, it should work. It assumes you have linked the 
 Edit and Timeline and that edit selection follows track selection under 
 your Options menu.
 1. Show all tracks.
 2. Go to the edit window.
 3. Press Command-Option-3 (on the numbers row) to bring keyboard focus to 
 the Groups List.
 4. Press Shift-1 which is the shortcut for the all group.
 5. Move the insertion point to the beginning of the song. Most of the 
 time, if you've scrubbed or played back somewhere in the session, 
 pressing Return to get to the start and tab once should bring you right 
 to the beginning of the first region. Mind you, if the song wasn't edited 
 to begin with, there might be a count-off bar or a few seconds of 
 fiddling around before the song really starts. If you wish to get rid of 
 that, get the insertion point to exactly where you want the playback to 
 start.
 6. Make sure you're in shuffle mode by pressing f1.
 7. While holding Shift, press return to select everything to the 
 beginning of the session.
 8. Press Delete.
 
 Keep in mind to disable the all group by pressing Shift-1 and that 
 keyboard focus is on the groups table so, if there are other groups in 
 the session and you inadvertently type, you might be enabling or 
 disabling groups. A good thing to do would be to get into Keyboard focus 
 mode with Command-Option-1. Of course, there, you might also 
 inadvertently type a command that might cause an edit function but I'm 
 assuming you're not randomly pressing letters while not in some dialog 
 box. You should be fine otherwise.

Re: Accessibility pt10.3.8 vs pt11.1

[Gordon Kent]

Well, I finally got my pro tools 11.1 authorized with avid, with the help of my 
Sweetwater sales guy.  And with a bit of experimentation, I actually was able 
to transfer the key onto my iLok with the license manager on Windows.  If you 
use OCR in jaws or NVDA, you can sort of figure out where you are.  It’s a bit 
better with Jaws.  If you right click on the key you want to transfer, which 
will appear if you selectg “all my licenses” from the license menu, you will 
get a drop down menu.  When  you select activate, you need to highlight the 
destination iLOk and then press OK.  YOu will get another confirmation and you 
need to press OK again on that and you’ll see “Processing.”  Finally it should 
say successful.  BUt it is not by any definition accessible, I just had enough 
tenacity to stick with it and I was nervous that I might do something wrong 
that would deactivate my key or something.  So Pace, if you’re monitoring this 
list, this doesn’t mean you’re off the hook.  On the mac it is totally 
invisible to us.

 Hi Chi,
 
 OK, I've had a chance to review and refresh my memory of the issues of 10
 versus 11. Upon review, version 11 really contains all of the
 improvements. The only substantive improvement that version 10 has is
 mainly the accessibility of the counters and AAX plug-ins. Regarding the
 counters, that could quite possibly be because of Mavericks versus
 Mountain Lion. It's been 8 months since I tried version 11 on Mountain
 Lion and there were a load of problems, not the least of which was the
 counter display issue. So, with version 10.3.8, the counters are readable
 but, whether that's because of Mavericks or not, I can't say for sure as
 I've been on Mavericks since the bulk of the accessibility work started.
 
 regarding plug-ins, the AAX plug-ins are accessible for the most part in
 version 10 but not in the same way as they are in 11. In a pinch, I was
 able to use some plug-ins for an emergency after my beta license for 11
 ran out. iLok License Manager not yet being accessible, my only choice at
 the time was to use version 10 for which I had purchased a license back
 before the License Manager was introduced.
 
 So, with those two mentionable improvements but not much else that I can
 tell at a cursory glance, the focus is really on 11.
 
 Hope that helps,

 Hi Chi,
 
 Yes, there is a difference. The focus on accessibility in the future
 will be on version 11. There were improvements to 10.3.8 for sure but it
 was not the primary concentration. From now on, any updates to version
 10 will be general maintenance and will not likely include significant
 improvements to accessibility. Much like bug fixes in other software,
 it's not expected that the developer will go back to previous versions
 of the software to fix the problem. The point is that it's fixed in the
 new version and that's it. In this situation, however, there are still
 people needing to use version 10 during the transition from 32 to 64 bit
 and while plug-in developers are pulling up the rear. I was surprised at
 how much was actually done in 10.3.8 to begin with.
 
 BTW, one task that is still only doable in 10 and not 11 is to create a
 custom nudge value. In 11, a VoiceOver user can only choose from the
 default values

Re: Understanding a Mackie universal pro with PT

[Gordon Kent]

They’re ok, but you might want to use the adat connector for input and a 
standalone a/d box.  I have a 
presonus that is good.  The good thing about the alesis is that the menus don’t 
rap, and there is a dedicated button called home/preset where you can use the 
value dial to step through something like 10 setups for different daws.  Once 
you select pro tools and push the dial down which acts like enter you’re ready 
to go.  Of course you have to tell pro tools what ports to use in the hui 
setup.  
The m-audio project mix is another alternative, and it has two adat connectors 
and eight mic pres.  The mic pres suck in my oppinion, and I don’t think it is 
quite as stable, it was made a long time ago.  But it does have more dedicated 
buttons on it for aux sends and the like.  THe jog dial is detented though, not 
as good for scrubbing.

 Although it only has 2 mic pres, it does have 8 line inputs and s/pdif and 
 adat inputs.  The jog wheel is very smooth for scrubbing, and for around $750 
 you can’t beat it.

 So as far as I understand, the MC universal pro is only a control surface 
 with no audio ins such as line ins, pre's or optical/SPDIF, so in order to 
 run audio in you would still need an audio interface to run external press 
 into the DAW? I do have a mackie Onyx 16 20I around, could that be the audio 
 interface and the MC pro be the control surfase in theory?
 Thanks for any thoughts on this.
