Re: Bi-weekly call with Avid

2015-04-26 Thread Mike Lockett
Hello Ricky,

I’m sorry recording the calls is not possible.

Some of the calls are of the nature where a None Discloser Agreement
has been signed.

On occasion Avid shares some delicate information about feature
releases in Pro Tools.

These calls are only design to address bugs and shortcomings in the Ap
as it pertains to accessibility/speech …

We monitor the list for any problems we possibly overlook and once its
confirmed we address it on the calls.

 Hey Guys,
 If any one is interested in
 joining our bi-weekly conference call with Avid, reach out to Chuck Vin,
 Slau,
 or myself off list.
 We would like to include one or two more users.
 It goes with out saying a decisive working knowledge of Pro Tools is
 required.

 Also being consistent on the calls is a requirement also...

Re: templates

2015-03-04 Thread Mike Lockett
Steve,

First when you save as a session template,
theres an option to save media.
Uncheck that box.

Then import session data.
Select the PTX file of the song you want to import tracks/media from.
When the import window opens,
V-O right, to tracks.

enter act with it and V-O right, to ‘source-destination’,
 interact with it.
choose the source track in the column to the left,
On the right you will see the destination track.

click in the combo box, you will be given the choice of “none, New track, and 
the tracks of the destination song.

Down arrow to your desired track, select it.

Stop interacting with tracks and hit OK…
This should do it.

 Hi Steve  Poppa,
 What you need to do is to import session data from the file menu.
 I do this all the time when mixing an album to maintain continuity.
 In a nut shell, import session data from  the mix you have finished into the 
 next mix song your about to start working on and bang you have all the same 
 settings to start with!
 Give a call if you need me to walk you through it for the first time. :)

 Hello Steve, when you go to your file menu you will find save as template 
 and when you save it you can name it and choose the location that you would 
 like to save it in. At that point when you want to use that template you 
 would just find it, click on it and you would be able to name it and choose 
 the location for the new session with that template. As far as importing 
 tracks into the template, you may have to just import them, then copy each 
 imported track and paste it onto the tracks that you have bussed out 
 already. You may be able to select all of the tracks in the mix window and 
 when you import the new tracks they may populate over the tracks in the 
 session that you have selected. I am not sure if that is an option, but it 
 seems like it would be a common sense approach. Other than that you would 
 have to re rout each track that you import to the bus you want it on, or 
 group them together. Perhaps somebody else has a working recommendation. HTH

Re: trying to automate plugins

2015-02-16 Thread Mike Lockett
Dave,
Make sure all of your plug-in’s parameters are selected for automation.
You can hold down the three modifier keys and click to toggle all of them on 
and off.
Or go setup-preferences-mixing-automation, and check plug-in controls default 
to auto-enable.
This way when you open a session all of the plug-in parameters  are 
automatically set.
Just know some parameters are not automatable, but most are.

Hope this helps.

Re: Automating the send mute button.

2015-02-10 Thread Mike Lockett
Chad if you are working with out a control surface,
assuming your  vocal track is sending to the aux with your delay,
put your aux track in automation and select it.
now when the transport is engaged press “shift-M” to toggle the mute on and off…

On Feb 10, 2015, at 9:53 PM, Slau Halatyn slauhala...@gmail.com wrote:

 Hi Chad,
 
 I'm assuming you have an aux input with the delay plug-in instantiated and 
 that a send is routed to a bus which is being received by the aux input.
 
 In the automation window, enable Send Mute automation. With a control 
 surface, the following procedure is simple. You mute the send, set the 
 track's automation to Write and engage the transport. Without a surface, 
 you'll need to go to the Track's output window to the sends section and mute 
 the send and then enable Write mode and engage the transport.
 
 Wherever you want the track to send to the delay, you'll need to click the 
 Mute button to toggle its state. Again, with a control surface, it's quite 
 easy and intuitive. If your unmuted sections are particularly short and you 
 find it tough to perform the button presses in quick succession, you can use 
 a slightly different method for the mute automation. Start with muting and 
 engaging the transport in write mode. Select the word or words you wish to 
 unmute to the delay, make sure you're still in Write mode, unmute the send 
 and engage the transport. The track will only play for the duration of the 
 selected word or words. Automation will be written for that section as 
 unmuted and will revert to the muted state after the selection. You can 
 repeat this process for each word or section.
 
 By default, automation is set to change to Auto Touch after an automation 
 pass so you'll have to switch back to Auto Write each time you select the 
 word or words. Be aware, however, that when you engage the transport, you'll 
 be writing the current mute state so you need to make sure everything is 
 correct before engaging the transport. With a surface, it's fairly easy to 
 just keep the automation in Auto Touch mode and use the send mute button to 
 unmute and mute on the fly for each section that requires the automation.
 
 Hope that helps,
 
 Slau

Control-up and down arrow does adjust the track height,

 If you're talking about the tracks viewed within the timeline in the Edit

 Increase the track height and I think those items will appear.

Re: Letter Update from Pace Anti-piracy

2015-01-31 Thread Mike Lockett
Really don’t want to get in a back and forth about this, I would
rather we save our energy for the accessibility challenges outside of
this forum.

Also my schedule won’t allow it.

 From first hand knowledge ProTools 10, and 11, in Mountain Lion and
Mavericks was unusable.
When I say this was fixed in les than two months, with out going in to
details just know I’m not guessing.


I understand that we all have different motives for wanting to get 
things fixed
For some of us it’s our work, for some of us it’s training, and for
some it’s just a hobby, so I understand some may be abit more
aggressive about timing than others.

I’m not interested in a divisive discussion here because I’m a where
of where our focus must be.
So once again for every one no matter the process, who forced Mr.
Cornce to at least respond, thanks again.

  Complaint
  Pace AP would not respond to my
  issue in a timely or communicative fashion.
  After purchasing a software
  product that uses the Ilok protection
  system, I was required to download
  the new License Manager software to
  authorize the
  Use of the software on my
  computer. Prior to this, the iLok had been
  working fine using the web browser
  authorization system and all of my
  iLok products
  Were running just fine. After
  installing the software, I was unable to
  get any of the software to
 operate on my computer, including the
  software that had
  Previously been authorized.
 
  After contacting Pace, they
  directed me to install the latest version
  of software which I already had
  done and offered a few minor steps
  which took a couple
  of minutes and did not fix the
  problem either. They asked for some
  files from my computer, and they
  said they were working on a solution.
  It is now 3 weeks
  after my first service request
 and I still do not have my issue
  resolved. There is no direct
  support line or email I can write to, so
  the only way to get
  help is to respond back to any
  messages I receive from the company.
  During this time, the least amount
  of time between responses has been
  1 day, with most
  responses coming after 3 or 4 days.
 
  I have found their support system completely unacceptable
  and
  incapable of handling the problems
  they have created by releasing this
  software with no way
  of ensuring that those affected
  will be able to return to their prior
  working state. Given that the problem stems from the iLok
  authorization system, and
  not with the original company, I
  have no way of asking for a refund or
  return on the software. I
  currently have over $1000 worth of software
  that I've
  purchased from other companies unable to be used due to
  this
  third-party protection software.
 
  I understand that they are busy
  due to this new system, but their
  support response has been
  completely inadequate and I feel my issue is
  getting overlooked
  and ignored.
 
  Desired Settlement
  My only settlement for this issue
  would be to focus on fixing the
  issue I have with the software
 to the point where I can use the
  products I have purchased
  without the iLok protection system getting in the way.
 
  Business' Initial Response
  First, I'd like to apologize to
  Mr. *** for the lack of response
  for several days after he sent us
  the log files we requested. Up until
  that point,

Consumer's Final Response
I was finally directed to an engineer within the company, and he was
incredibly helpful in isolating the cause of the problem and finding a
fix for it.
He was extremely responsive to my information and allowed me to be
part of the process for fixing the problem in the software. I could
not have been happier
With the interaction with the technical department, but I wish it had
taken less time for me to be referred to that department. My issue has
been completely
Resolved and I'm extremely satisfied with the response once I was
directed to the right place.”

Guys This was taken from the BBB’s website.
So every one who is affected by the Ilok authorization process should
file a complaint here…
Sory for the long post…
Time for action!!

 Hi Steve,
 
 As expected, doing this with a control surface is simple but, since you don't 
 have access to one there, you'll need to improvise.
 
 I'm used to having the option of writing to an entire selection but that 
 might be an HD feature, I'm not sure, to be honest. However, I think this 
 might work:
 
 Select the range for which you want to write new volume automation.
 When you play back that section, your volume fader will reflect the written 
 volume automation level.
 Set your track's automation mode to Write.
 Set your volume fader to the desired volume level.
 Engage the transport for the duration of the selection.
 
 
 You should have the new automation level written now.
 
 Control-Shift-up and down arrow commands are for clip gain, not for 
 automation.

 i think i wrote a static pass of automation, but maybe i did not do i t 
 correctly. although i’ve been over the instructions a couple of times.
 i was also under the impression that control shift up and down arrow are key 
 strokes to do this, but i can’t seem to get this to work either.
 so what i’m getting is this. When i move the fader up and down it will write 
 fine, but if i make a selection, and then move the fader to where i want for 
 that specific point, how do i write the automation for that point only.can 
 this be achieved after you have written automation to a track just to tidy 
 things up. 
 
 I have to do this without a control surface. I have the mackie universal 
 control surface with an extender which is excellent. but i am working in 
 broadcast as well and can not get my control surface down there, so i’ll 
 have to do the best i can without one. Maybe i can convince them to buy one 
 one day. but that’s a way off.

Re: input monitoring

2015-01-21 Thread Mike Lockett
Hey Steve after you switch to input monitoring, to hear playback you have to 
switch back to auto input.
Also make sure the track input monitor button  is deselected… 
That button is just left of the record select button.

 Hey john yes, i did give that a go earlier today, but it just seems to allow 
 me to monitor the input at all times.so when the transport is stopped the 
 input still comes through. For some reason i can not seem to record in this 
 mode. not sure why.
 
 I guess what i am needing is a way to turn off the input sauce when actually 
 recording. so you don’t hear what is coming in this is not a problem when 
 using a proper interface like presonis or motu, or what ever, but i did 
 encounter a problem when using the alan and heath z 18 today. this is a basic 
 annalogue desk with u s b capabilities. So you can plug your computer in to 
 it and start recording. I have used a pc with this desk and used programs 
 like sound forge , and studio recorder. these programs to my knoledge do not 
 let you hear the input at all, so the problem is not there. In sonar on a pc, 
 you can enable or disable the inputut monitoring, they call it input echo, so 
 this task could be achieved easily, But i can't see a way of doing this in 
 protools short of muting the track when you record. If you are recording a 
 voice track, and want to do a lot of punching in and out, this would be 
 really hard to carry out.
 
 It’s a strange one, and as i said before, in my studio at home here, i would 
 not want to work this way, but need to with certain equipment.

Re: Pitch 'n time

2015-01-20 Thread Mike Lockett
John maybe the confusion is,
in my explanation.
So I’ll try again,
Pitch -n Time pro V3 will work in PT 10.3.5 and PT11 and higher.
In PT 10.3.5 the parameters can’t be read by voice over, but you can use the 
shortcut keys I referred to in my earlier email.
There is a shortcut command to move semitones but cents can only be adjusted 
visually at this time…
Now in PT11 and higher, you can interact with the parameters
in which case you can adjust semitones and cents individually.
Cents can only be incremented %17 at a time..
This is because of V-O and not Pitch -n Time.
Hope this helps

 Hi John,
 
 You can adjust the parameter in one cent increments. In addition, you can

 It's only accessible with 11.1 and higher with voice over. 
 Although in ten three there are some short cut keys that you can use for

 To change pitch one semitone use the control up or down arrow depending 
 on the direction you need to go.
 For time contraction or expansion use control and left or

 Pitch ’n time is the industry go to plug for TCE and key

 The company is Serato.
 In 11 when the plug-in window is open, 
 Interact with the

 tracks at the same time. However i have mixed projects with 24+ tracks

 a Thunderbolt drive will be as fast as any internal drive So thats also

 a couple of small questions. i sujested to him to use an external drive,
 and not to use the main hard drive on the mac for recording. So he is
 asking if a 256 gig internal drive would be big enough if he was adding an
 external drive. I would have thought it would be, but thought i'd ask
 anyway.
 
 the other question is what type of external drive should he be running. .
 Is it better to  for a u s b 3 external drive, or would thunderbolt be
 better. or a firewire drive.

Re: Pitch 'n time

Hey John,
Its in PT10  where you have to use short cut keys to move semitones.

Theres know shortcut to move cents.
But in PT11 the parameters can be control by V-O.
When the plug-in window is open, interact with plug-in view,
go to output percent view interact with it,
V-O up or down to change the cents.
Hope this helps.

Re: automation question

2015-01-16 Thread Mike Lockett
Hi Steve, 
Volume Automation with out a hard surface and ProTools
 may be difficult.
What you can try though,
 Use Clip Gain. Select the track and  highlight the location you want to edit.
To lower the level of say your vocals, hold down control,  shift, and down 
arrow to the volume you want.

Use the same key command with up arrow to raise said vocals.
Remember your start and end point must be set correctly
 hope this helps

PS you can undo this function with undo...

 know when you want to automate volume fades with out that lovely control

 boost the music bed to where you want quickly. Is there any way this type of 
 fader riding could be carried out more actuaritly in protools without a

 does anyone have any sujestions as to how this could be done.

 It sounds like there's a system level problem with your num pad. There are 
 no commands to turn off the num pad in Pro Tools. It's either classic, 
 Transport or Shuttle (on HD systems). Apart from that, num lock and num 
 pad commander are the only other variables. Does num pad commander work

Re: Something I heard about PT 11

2013-09-22 Thread Mike Lockett
Hey yes the D,A,E or Digital Audio Engine is no more.
Avid has gone to the A,A,E or Avid Audio Engine.
The AAE is a 64-bit engine much faster and more powerful than the DAE
which had been around for 15, years.
And yes should be accessible to us soon...

Hey Scott to consolidate tracks command shift 3 will consolidate clips.
Also you can go Menu edit Consolidate.
I know you can make a stereo track and split it in to mono but I don't
remember an option to do it in reverse.

2013-01-21 Thread Mike Lockett
Hello Cody I’m not sure of the peripherals on the macbook air
But I would think you would need more than 64 gigs to effectively run
 Lion or mountain lion.
As for selecting a working version of pro tools,
I would as most users here recommend version 9.4 you can then update I
think now to V. 9.8.
This can be purchased and downloaded from the Avid store.
www.Avid.com
All of these things can effectively be done using pro tools, I don’t
think any one on this list would downgrade to cakewalk if given the
choice.
Personally I sequence with an Akai MPC4000 but I’ve pulled up drums
sometimes from expantion2 or venom a pro tools plug-in.
M-audio and others make an USB midi keyboard that can trigger your
patches or sequencers such as the korg motif,
Or Roland’s phantom or drum controllers like the akai and others can
be used as stand alone midi controllers.
Hope this helps. L8r

Re: getting started

2013-01-21 Thread Mike Lockett
Hy Krister the list deals with the most entry to the more advance
issues so by all means feel free to ask.

The MBox is the interface in other words when you send your audio to pro tools
IE your vocals or instruments, the MBox converts that analog signal to
the digital signal which pro tools uses to your computer.
This signal is then converted back to analog to your speakers.

Usually there’s a stereo input and output.
The stereo input is where you would plug your mick or instrument,
The output sends sounds out to your speakers.
The MBox communicates with pro tools on your computer by USB.
Hope this helps l8r

 Yeah, but I plan on having external storage anyway. I wonder if using the
 apple time capsule will be an ok option? It's wireless, but it's got a USB
 port, so I'm thinking I could use that if I wired into it for
 recording.that would be sick. Or would a normal external hdd be
 better.

 I'll look at the packages Avid offers. I guess my biggest question is, is
 the accessibility currently employed by pro tools justifiable by the price
 I'm paying? Or is this still in experimental stages.

 While i would be tempted to say the current Gen air with the 2.0GHZ

 1.8GHZ processor, 4GB  of ramm and i can mix on it no problem wit
 aproject containing 12 to 24 tracks. Wouldn't try recording to one of
 those without an external drive though as that much constant writting to
 any SSD drive  will shorten its life span greatly. If you go for the pro
 i'd spring for the 8GB or 16GB of ramm if affordable and a 128GB SSD as
 well. The advantage of the pro is you can swap out the cd rom drive for a
 second HD down the road should you so choose to. But like i Said  you
 will need a second HD for recording for best performance no matter which
 laptop you go with, the pro just gives you more flexibility.

 As for Pro TOols. Any authorized dealer like the usual online ones are
 good places to start. If you need an interface its a better deal if you
 buy Pro tools bundled with one of avid's interface.  I don't use midi
 much if at all so can't speak to that, so will leave it for others to
 answer. I prefer to build my drum tracks from drum loops personally.

 in other words: Can someone describe to me the most ideal setup for a
 blind person to write music? I'm starting over from scratch and want to
 buy quality gear, but it still needs to be useable and accessible.
 Hardware specifrics would be appreciated.


 Thanks all
 Cody

Hi,

Thanks for  your e-mail. I have passed along your e-mail to several
different people within the company (programmers, head of sales,

but hopefully we will have a fix soon.

important control-24 users

2012-11-27 Thread Mike Lockett
Hey guys for all Control-24 owners,
A parts seller of digidesign/Avid electronic parts informed me to day
At the end of this calendar year there will be no more support for the
control-24.
That means purchasing faders, fader cards, power supplies and such parts
Like E Proms will be much harder to buy.
These parts are Digi specific so finding generic parts will not work.

  Mike,

   

  Can you tell me how you come up with the number 100? Is that the number of 
members on this list? I suspect there are a larger number of people who aren't 
on this list because they don't know about it, they feel they don't need it 
(very dumb), or some other reason. grin

  Brian well worded.

  Slau's knowledge and disposition can't be denied not even by Avid.

  I couldn't think of a greater point person.

  They should be made aware if now there's 100 blind users if they create a 
more accessible product 

  that number will grow.

  I also agree the educational aspect of it could open up even a bigger market.

  I think we all have to figure out how we can contribute to the fight.

Mike, 

 

Great points again. 

 

Brale on elivators is a very different cost to effort ratio to making 
ProTools accessible I'm sure, but I get your point, and those kinds of measures 
aren't only down to building laws etc. 

 

Perhaps some organisation like the American council for the Blind could 
take up a lobbying roll on behalf of blind/visually impaired professionals in 
the audio industry? Being from Ireland, I'm not too close to the Irish 
equivalent, and  Ireland is very insignificant anyway, but I'd imagine the U.S. 
organisation might yield quite a bit of lobbying power, and this might be a 
good start as a majority of software/hardware companies in the DAW game are 
based in the U.S. An organisation like that might also be able to push the 
educational angle. It has been mentioned in the past, but the education secter 
is very important to a company like Avid or Apple even more so. If equal access 
to education is the question, then that could lead somewhere a little more 
permanent. 

 

However, like you say Mike, there are times to be aggressive and times for 
other actions, and if an aggressive approach is taken across the board, forcing 
accessibility on these companies may lead to a hollow kind of fix, where they 
reluctantly do just enough to make it look like they're keeping on top of 
accessibility issues, and for us professionals we could be worse off if that 
was the case, but who knows. 

 

Hence why I say be aggressive toward Apple with logic, let Slau do his 
thing, let scripters be scripters, but perhaps long term see if some more 
powerful collective for lobbbying can be established, something a little more 
political and more interactive than a petition. 

 

Finally, I think one of the clever things Slau has done is not force the 
issue, and try to nurture a genuine interest, pride or sense of responsibility 
in at least someone in a company like Avid to try and address accessibility. If 
you yell at someone to clean up their act they might do so, but not with 
vitality, however if you show someone a glimpse of positive outcomes that might 
result, the effects might be more lasting and they might even bring new ideas 
to the table. 

 

Brian.

Subject: Just My take

 

Hello my Take for what its worth...
I think PTaccess is only a forum, maybe there should be an organized union.
The like of one means that all of us are fighting this accessibility war as 
individual agents.
I'm not sure which side of the aggressive verses patients argument side I 
fall on.
though my life's experience says there's a place for both of them.

Secondly more times than not when we get on an elevator there's normally 
Braille,
though doing the course of a day maybe 3 or 4 blind people out of thousands 
get on the elevator.
so I'm not sure numbers or our like of should stop us from pursuing 
something 
we've paid for.
Protools is just one battle to be wedged.
There are plug-ins even apple probably could do more.
The rule of thumb is normally as time passes things get better,
the scary thing here is that its not guaranteed.
The next version of protools because of a window change could go from %80 
to %20 I hope not but its possible.
Until there's some official organization this is what we are stuck with
the PT ACCESS group sharing ideas and war stories.

  I think I changed a setting on accidend. I can normaly just arrow around a 
folder or applacation window, but what ever I did made it so that when I am in 
a folder or list of apps I can only tab or use the first letter of each item to 
navagate and I would rather be able to arrow around, and I would not only like 
to change it back, but also know what I did for future reference. I have only 
been using voice over for a few weeks now so I am very new to all of this.

  Ok, I am having problems simply recording on a track. I am making sure the 
track is armed, the signal is moving the meater and I can even apply a plugin 
on the source, or not. I try pressing space bar, or Command plus space bar, and 
nothing. The only way it will record is by pressing Shift plus command plus 
space and that sets the track on a half speed type of mode  and that is not a 
viable way to make songs. I am not sure what is going on, but I feel like I am 
missing a simple step here. 
  Thanks for any help.

Re: Key Stroke Question

2012-04-14 Thread Mike Lockett
Hey Nate unfortunately no.
There are some work arounds though, you can go to your track list button and 
show only selected tracks.
You can also VO shift M, or right click the solo, Mute, Rec enable buttons
this will toggle all to the opposite state, and 
clicking one more time will toggle all of them back now you can make your 
selection.

  Is there a key stroke that will tell you these things, 1. Which tracks are 
armed?
  2. Which tracks are Soloed?
  3. Which tracks are Muted?
  4. Which tracks are selected?
  In Sonar I am used to using a key stroke to find all these questions without 
having to check each track.
