accessibility of the Universal Audio Apollo x8p 16x22 and the Focusrite Clarett+ 8Pre audio interfaces and included software and plugins
Hi, I was looking for a replacement audio interface for my Digi 003 and was looking into the Universal Audio Apollo x8p 16x22 audio interface as I want to get something much better for my new mac book pro that I plan to get soon. At this point I am not worried if Pro Tools will work right out of the box with it as my current late model 2011 17 inch with 16 gigs of ram and the 750 gig spinning drive Pro Tools does not run on it anymore regardless of what version I install for 10.13.6 so I am alright waiting for that. My main issue at this current time is the hardware and was looking into the Universal Audio Apollo x8p 16x22 audio interface and was wondering how accessible this is with voice over and are the included plugins usable or can I use my native Avid plugins if I am alright with those results? If this is not the best brand for vocals and musical recording then what interface is? I was also looking at the Focusrite Clarett+ 8Pre audio interface so the same questions are for that one how accessible is the included software and if I just want to use the Avid native plugins that come with Pro Tools can I do this with this interface also? If anyone else also has other suggestions I am open to these as I am not into one brand I am into getting what I need done.

Re: Though not advised I'm sure, can this still technically in theory be done?
Hi, I always like to do tests like this to see how well things work as just because it is not officially supported does not mean that you can not at least get something done on it. The issue is if you find a bug with Pro Tools on an unofficially supported mac operating system how do you go about reporting the bug so it can at least be known?

In fact, Ventura OS13 isn't even out yet. It's still public beta, hince why I'd never do this on my main machine, but if you have a backup to play with that if things break, isn't a big deal, I'm wondering if you technically speaking could get P'T to run fairly decently on that setup. I know some plugins certainly may not work correctly, but I'm speaking more just PT in and of itself, 3rd party plugins not withstanding. NOt asking for much detail here, but more just a general, yes in theory it would, or no, absolutely 100 percent no no no no, don't even attempt, even on a test environment.

Re: free comprehensive Pro Tools Guide for Screen Reader Users now available online
Hi, I like these wonderful tutorials a lot. One demo that I think is missing is the demo on how to change the different mac and Pro Tools settings as all of mine are correct but havving audio demos would be helpful for some users.

graphics processing unit and Pro Tools
Hi, I am looking at upgrading to a new mac book pro soon and was wondering if the graphics processing unit has anything to do with Pro Tools for audio and some very small video editing like cutting off the beginning and end of a mp4 file and adding audio effects to them? I don't mind getting a system with a high end graphics card if it will help in this setup but wanted to ask here first before doing so. I am not worried about what this new system will be running as I am planning on buying this for the future so if Pro Tools won't run on it for sometime that is fine with me for now.

Re: Is there a way to restore your system back to the previous operating system?
Hi, I have been able to do this by just loging into my Apple ID and downloading the installer for the version I wish to restore to and just using directions on line on how to create an USB installation key but first make sure you backup all of your data first. There are also programs like Super Duper and Carbon Copy Cloner that can make a bootable drive backup of your system and I find those very accessible and usable.

Re: major accessibility issues with the Avid download page for Pro Tools 2019 with screen readers
Hi, Like I said I was able to do the downloads but like Chuck said things could be improved. Really the web site should be fully accessible for all browsers regardless of the platform. I was wondering if there is a way for Pro Tools to check for updates and download them or at least let us know when an update is out? For those of us using the educational license that web site where you go to enter in your school's e-mail address could be more usable as well as having a support desk for help with it as I had to have a sited person help me with it.

Re: Question about iLoks and the iLok manager
Hi, What would happen if your hard drive crashed with the license on it and you had no backup made could the license be restored? If say I did have a full backup could I just restore everything back to the new drive? I am just asking so I would know what I would have to do if something happened.

It's up to the developer to determine whether a license can be activated to an iLok, a computer and the cloud. Some developers allow all three while some only allow one or two. The third generation iLok can store at least 512 licenses if not more. I'd imagine there's no theoretical maximum for computer activation slots. One disadvantage with computer activation is that you have to remove all license activations if you're formatting the drive.

Obviously, I already have one which I'm using with ProTools, as well as some plugins which require it. I see however that when activating a plugin through the iLok manager, I either can put the asset on my physical iLok USB dongle, or I can actually put it locally on my mac itself. I guess my main question is, like there is on an iLok dongle, is there a limit on how many assets will fit if I was to store them instead on my mac? Also, having this option, does that mean that technically speaking, as long as I don't plan to move around from one system to another, I could theoreticly store the asset there instead of on my actual dongle itself? Finally, what would be the disadvantages aside the obvious of no portability from one system to another of having it stored locally on my mac instead of the key itself?

demos of microphones and audio interfaces in the dropbox folder for people looking for new equipment to replace my Digi 003
Hi, I own the Digi 003 and am looking to get both a newer interface and good vocal microphone. Before I just read some of this group's wonderful reviews and buy based off of them one thing that might help not just me but others as well as if some of you could create some interface and microphone samples like where you talk and then leave the microphone plugd in and let us hear how quiet or not so quiet the audio interface is and the microphone. I have been looking at the Focusrite Scarlet 2I2 third generation and any of the newer and even older Behringer interfaces like the U-phoria line. Any good vocal microphones would be useful demos to get. At this point I am open to any samples no matter how good or bad the quality is so I can hear what is out in the audio interface and microphone world. I am in the dropbox folder so if people put samples in that folder I will get it.

Re: good USB type C audio interface that is accessible as I need to buy a new mac
Hi, The Digital 003 uses Firewire ports and I have not managed to locate an adapter that ports Firewire to USB type C plugs. Do most USB interfaces work well with an USB type C adapter cable and do any of the 15 inch Mac laptops have the function keys or just the touch bars?

good USB type C audio interface that is accessible as I need to buy a new mac

question about new audio interface for traveling purposes and good microphone suggestions
Hi, I have been waiting until I really want to do some work before buying a new interface as my Digi 003 is rather large and it probably won't be supported much longer so I want to get something before that happenss. I would like around 8 inputs that are preferabley the combo jacks that can take both XLR and quarter inch connections. I am not set on a brand as long as I can effectively use it with Pro Tools 12 or higher. I would like something that is easy to configure and can be taken places when I travel. For my microphone suggestion I would like a microphone that is able to switch between picking up everything in a room and just around the front of it or is it better to buy two different microphones for this purpose? Again I am not for any brand just as long as it is not one of those fall apart microphones and works well. USB or thunderbolt connections probably thunderbolt is best as that is what the future is going to version two of thunderbolt or better probably is best but if it only supports version one that is fine I want to buy for the future. Anymore questions please ask. I am going to look into a control surface as well would think it is best if that is not part of the interface and if there is one that has automated controls that move when Pro Tools moves the fadors and supports changing plugin settings that would be nice.

Rather than putting those installers in the folders you would be
better to
maybe put them somewhere on your own dropbox then post a link to
those files
as those take up quite a lot of space. Or you could contact Avid
technical
support who no doubt would sort you out with direct links to the
files.

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR
Hi, Good suggestions does the presonus require any external power or does it run off of the computer's power? I will have a look at both of those products you talked about and does the box you connect to your main interface to expand it have any USB connections on it? Will it work as an audio interface on it's own? Nick Gawronski On 1/13/2016 6:31 AM, Steve Sparrow wrote: Hi Nick well myself, I use the motu 896 mark 3. It has 8 very good mic line prees. It connects with fire wire or Usb. I also have a focus right box that has 8 more mic line prees. it connects fire optical cables. s on it. so i can record up to 16 tracks at once if need be. can’t remember the model number of this thing, but i’ll get it if you want it. As far as the control surface, i use the mackie control surface.

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR
Hi, Well as they are not made anymore and as Avid told me they will officially stop supporting that interface soon I want something that is modern and the firewire port on it is a 400 so I had to get an adapter cable to make it work with the 800 port on my system I want something that sounds much better and is more current.

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR
Hi, What times will you need to go into the control pannel and change settings as I would rather not deal with a device that has portions I can't access and have you written the company about these issues?

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR
Hi, Why would you want to change the sample rate and bit rate in the interface as I normally I want to record at 24 or 32 bit at 96KHZ in Pro Tools so does this mean that I have to first setup the interface then setup Pro Tools for the same settings? This interface sounds like the one I wish to buy and if I could get all of my settings setup that I wish to use before I leave the store then I would be ok with it and of course I would write the company about these issues as I think they need to hear our input on these issues about accessibility.

Re: unable to delete audio after making selection in Pro Tools 12.3 and OS X 10.11
Hi, Yes I have the correct track selected and command and shift and l does tell me I have a loop as the selection plays over and over but if I press the delete key on the full sized Apple keyboard during the looping no deletion takes place and if I delete the selection when nothing is playing the selection is not selected but the audio still exists. What else should I look at and once I find out what is causing these issues is there a way to make the change global across all sessions as the default?

Re: unable to delete audio after making selection in Pro Tools 12.3 and OS X 10.11
Hi, I did check that checkbox and tried what you suggested and there is a value in the selection edit length edit box. However even when loop is turned on and I can hear the selection looping still the deletion does not delete the selection no matter what edit mode I am in. Would calling Avid support be the best option as I do have the educational support plan for a few more months and they might be able to find out very quickly what is going on as every time I try something to fix the issue I get nowhere?

Re: audio interface recommendations
Hi, Yes and that is where I usually go to look for items then see if I can find a newer model then the one they are showing off in the store. I usually give them a call before I go and look at an item and get the person's name I am talking with so when I get there I can speak with them and they can show me the items. How accessible is the focus right 18 I 20 as an audio interface and Pro tools?

Re: Control Surface Recommendations
Hi, I also have a Digi 003 with the moving fading controls that I would be willing to sell if anyone is interested as I will want something that is supported threw at least the next three versions or so of Pro Tools and if possible something that also will allow me to connect it to my windows system and record using programs that blind people use on the windows side of things. I was hearing a lot of good things about the Artist control surfaces and the new USB interfaces but don't want to lose any inputs or outputs. What is a good USB audio interface that has the same amount of inputs and outputs as the Digi 003? I don't mind getting one that just works on the mac but would like something that works on both systems so I can take it around and use it different places with different systems.

Re: [Bulk] [Bulk] [Bulk] Avid S3 or C24 control surface?
Hi, I have been reading this topic and find this very interesting. I am looking to trade in my Digi 003 or would not mind selling it if someone on this list wants to buy it from me. Does Avid make any control surfaces or interfaces that give me the same features as the Digi 003 as lots of people have heard about the new focus right interfaces which I am ok with getting but would want at least the same amount of inputs on that as the Digi 003 has and I guess I could buy an Avid control surface but does Avid still have moving controls like the Digi 003 does as I also don't want to lose those? I don't mind having two different devices as this way I could always travel with one then mix things at home. Nick Gawronski On 10/28/2015 1:18 PM, Katie Zodrow wrote: Hi.

Ironically, the original HUI specification where fader flip was implemented was in the Mackie HUI control surface itself. Even some Digidesign surfaces didn't have it at first. Now, every Avid surface offers it. I know the J.L. Cooper stuff featured fader flip mode as well. Today, I'm not sure what the lay of the land is for third party manufacturers.

This gives a blind user the benefit of a tactile representation of the parameter values. It's pretty much the only way I've accessed plug-ins in Pro Tools. Actually, a combination of fader flip mode and directly changing parameter values with VoiceOver seems to work best. All Avid surfaces have fader flip mode and some, but not all, third party surfaces have the mode as well. Supposedly, the Mackie Control has it but, again, I have yet to hear of somebody reliably using it in that mode.

While it'll certainly work for things like transport, scrubbing (although I don't like the way it scrubs), mute, solo, etc., my understanding is that it lacks in the ability to reliably switch into fader flip mode which is one of the most important aspects of control surface implementation for blind users of Pro Tools.

Re: Very very weird observation with ProTools
Hi, Yes this has been going on for me as well. I usually just go into terminal and run sudo reboot or sudo halt to either reboot or halt the system. You are prompted for your password then the system will do what you tell it to. I know this is probably not the best option but at least the system does a clean reboot or shutdown and you don't lose data.

I thought it might be helpful to outline the new accessibility fixes in the upcoming Pro Tools version 12. We've had only a handful of fixes in the last 18 months or so but this time it's more like around 40 bug fixes. Many of them are subtle and simple things like fixing nomenclature but some are more significant. I'm attaching an mp3 that gives some examples of the changes and I talk through some of the stuff. I now realize that I didn't mention a couple of things in the recording like, for example, the create Session dialog which has been improved and the Delete Unused Playlists dialog which now reports the status of selected playlists within the table. Anyway, in addition to attaching the mp3, here's a Drop Box link https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3016244/Pro%20Tools%20accessibility%20bug%20fixes%20in%20version%2012.2.m4a to the file in case the attachment gets screwed up in the posting.

Re: process for generating a sweep tone for a few minutes
Hi, yes that worked just fine. That checkbox at the end of the dialog should I check it or uncheck it? I have sound forge version 9 how accessible is 10 or 11 and is it worth the upgrade?

In mine, the Synthesis sub-menu is on the Insert menu, and you have three choices: DTMF, FM and Simple. For what you're doing, you want Simple. In much earlier versions of Sound Forge, Synthesis is on another menu besides Insert. In the Simple Synthesis dialog, arrow down to the first preset, which is just a 1kHZ tone lasting 5 seconds. Tab through the dialog and set the various options. You want to keep the amplitude at -12dB and the waveform type as Sine. The Maximum length is 600 seconds, your ten minutes, so just edit the time to 600. Edit the starting and ending frequency etc. and OK the dialog.

Hi, I myself use Android devices as I like the openness of Android and not the closedness of Apple devices. I think the touch screen for a blind person is a great thing but think some devices should still contain hardware keyboards as an option for users who don't use a touch screen usually I find it is because of lazyness rather then wanting to learn something new.

Topic about technics, equipment, voice over and Pro Tools for Visual Impaired audio Engineers Hi Nick! I logged in this community reading an article about Slau. I am totally agree with you about the trainers teaching Pro Tools and VoiceOver. I just begin my study research and found amazing facts about visual impairment and blindness people. Add the link of one of these reviews http://www.researchgate.net/publication/5284206_Imagery_and_spatial_processes_in_blindness_and_visual_impairment The fist supposition was sight problems increase other senses, doing a little research and knowledge from T.V documentary and others shows it looks to be true, so my next supposition was “So if I’m assuming blind mixers have a better trained hearing sense, because all their world go around on it, How they work in box? And I quickly find out all the process and limitations actually Voice Over and Pro Tools compound have. You gave me a new goal to study too Nick, about Avid Trainers and their skills for teach both software’s working together, its and interesting topic too. What do you think about Voice Over on IPad or IPhone, I mean it looks than using a Touch Screen is easier and quickly, and the first product I think is the Slate Pro Audio Raven Controller using Voice Over.

The workaround is to route the mouse pointer to the VoiceOver cursor and either click a track pad or use Shift-Control-Option-Space Bar. It's a fairly minor issue. Given the option, I see nothing wrong with starting out on Mavericks but that's just delaying the inevitable migration at some point. If you have Mavericks, stay with it by all means but, if you can go Yosemite just as easily, I'd say go Yosemite.

Re: Part 11 or 12?
Hi, I have the educational version upgrade from Pro Tools 11 to 12. You would qualify as when I called Avid they told me there is no difference in versions it will be the normal version of Pro Tools not the HD version if this is what you are talking about. I had support remote into my system to help me transfer the ilok license and started the downloads for me and help me fill out the educational form to say I was a student. I gave the site my school email address but someone still has to manually accept the offer so you will have to wait and check your school email for the information. Avid support is the best resource as you do have to enter in codes to some web sites and rather then do all of this on my own as they were connected to my computer we just did this process over the phoneas they knew I was blind so they told me lets just do this over the phone as it was much faster then once the license was accepted I again called support and they remoted into my system to do the ilok transfer.

Hi, I did write the company about accessibility of this device before as one of my instructors at school had one but they were using it in Pro Tools not sure if they even had the special mixing software loaded on the school computer probably not. I would write the company and ask them about the usability with voiceover and also find out if there is a return policy if it is not accessible or if their special software is even required if you plan to use it with Pro Tools?

changing the speed of a Pro Tools 12 session recorded with no click track
Hi, I was letting one of my friends practice their singing with some music tracks from an audio CD in Pro Tools 12. They then wanted me to change the speed of one of the songs but when I tried using elastic audio to do this we ran into a problem. We did not make any click track and put more then one song in the same session as I was planning on cutting them apart after everything was recorded. Is there no method to increase the speed by about a quarter or a half with no click track? I tried using the tempo settings like I did for class work but because Pro Tools does not know the exact tempo of all of the songs in the session one after another that method did not work. I even made sure things were set for ticks on all tracks and tried all elastic audio plugins with no results. What should I do to do this for them?

Re: possible voiceover bug in pro tools
Hi, not sure if this is related but I notice that when trying to send effects to busses there are now two groups of busses and I am always placed at the bottom of the list so have to use voiceover and the up errow to get back to bus one and two if these are the ones I wish to use. In older versions I use to be placed at the top of the bus list directly at bus one and two so could select them right away rather then having to errow up to the begining of the bus list. Has anyone else had this problem? Nick Gawronski On 5/8/2015 6:55 AM, Brian Howerton wrote: Hello all, I want to mention this on the list to see if anyone else is experiencing this.

Re: trimming a drum loop in Pro Tools 12
Hi, I was able to extended the loop 32 times which got it to the end of the song. When changing the tempo of the song in the Pro Tools with speech tutorials it says to turn off the conductor track but the directions on my remix project say to leave it on. After following the directions in changing the audio tracks from sample to tick based the tempo value dropped from 140.000 to 70.000 so of course when I changed it to 145.000 it sounded totally sped up and turning on the conductor track I was not able to make any changes. What am I missing as I had to also go into elastic audio and change all tracks to polyphonic mode before changing the tempo. Really this last step is where I am having the issue.

Steve Steve Steve On 5 May 2015, at 9:30 pm, Slau Halatyn slauhala...@gmail.com wrote: I've received a bunch of emails with some concerns about accessibility progress or the seeming lack of it since version 11.1. It's true that we've essentially had only one fix since then but be assured that there will be some progress in an upcoming release. I alluded to an opportunity I recently had to interface with some programmers regarding Pro Tools. You may recall that I asked the list to provide their top issues several weeks ago. I wanted to see if there were specifically issues that hadn't yet been reported as bugs but, more so, to help prioritize the issues. What I'm about to mention is not a secret but it's not necessarily common knowledge either. For some years now, the programming of Avid applications, including Pro Tools, has been subcontracted to Global Logic, a tech company with international offices, several of which are in Ukraine. The Kiev office has a team of programmers who work on Pro Tools. I was recently engineering an orchestral project in Kiev and Avid and global Logic agreed to let me spend a day with the team to go over existing and bugs as well as new submissions. Rather than focusing on fixing just a few bugs on the spot, the team wanted to get a sense of the user experience and exactly how each issue affected the user experience. We covered dozens of bugs. Again, some known and some not yet logged. A large number of the issues are what somebody referred to as low hanging bugs because they're largely a matter of proper labeling rather than much bigger issues like elastic Audio (although I've offered a suggestion that might offer us a little breakthrough on that front). Anyway, of course, the reason for non-disclosure agreements is, in part, to discourage the raising of hopes and potential disappointments so I won't get into those details. I think it's safe to say, however, that we will see the fruits of my recent trip and, more importantly, I think the team in Kiev has learned a lot from a first-hand look at how a VoiceOver user truly navigates and interacts with Pro Tools. Having someone sit there and witness this stuff in action very much humanizes the dilemmas we face. If nothing else, this was surely achieved. Again, I think we'll see some results soon. I've come to appreciate the enormous challenges these teams face and it's overwhelming what they have to deal with. beyond that, Avid themselves face overwhelming challenges as does every company these days. Having met a bunch of the programmers from several teams, these people are genuinely interested in the issue of accessibility and appreciate its importance. On a side note, some of you might be aware that there's currently a war going on in eastern Ukraine with Russia invading it's border. Being of Ukrainian descent, I naturally have a personal connection and a sense of ancestral pride that are probably inseparable here. Politics has no place on this list and I won't comment further but, in the context of what's going on, it was poignant to me, upon initially conversing with the team in fluent Ukrainian, they were surprised that I knew the language. In a confluence of factors leading up to my visit, it struck me how fortunate I was to, first of all, be granted the opportunity to work directly with the programmers but also that my circumstances coincided with a sense of heritage and ethnic roots. I've said this before and I'll say it again: I readily confess that anything I've done regarding Pro Tools accessibility has been , first and foremost, for purely selfish reasons: to attain access to the tools I personally need as a trained professional. Knowing that this directly affects hundreds of other users is perhaps the best of fringe benefits. There's a new release of version 12 that just came out and there are no immediate accessibility improvements in it but another version is quickly coming down the pike. Sit tight, folks. Better days are ahead. Slau -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Pro Tools Accessibility group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving
trimming a drum loop in Pro Tools 12
Hi, I am having to make a remix of a song we did in class. I was given a drum loop that I need to trim the end as there is quietness at the end I need to clean up so when I use loop playback and have the clip selected the drum loop plays purfectly. What is the easiest way to remove no sound at the end of the loop once shift and tab are used to select it as using normal down and up errow I am not purfectly aligned? Then the directions tell me to use the trimmer tool in TCE mode so the end of the loop aligns exactly with the 2 measures of the songs grids the loop is in time with the rest of the song. The drum loop is on it's own track as one clip. AFTER this I again need to use the trimmer to extend the loop to the end of the song. After this I have to slide the loop to match the bass drum the directions say to vision but my instructor told me to try to do this step with the keyboard is this even possible? Is changing and programming in the tempo something I am going to be able to do accessible as well as speeding up the song after changing the tracks from sample to tick based which I can do as I know which button that is in the track. We did not get the loops for this project until today and the project should be finished by Thurseday I did look over all of the Pro Tools with speech tutorials but in version 12 things look different then they did in 10 so this is why am posting these questions as I would like to get this project done so I can turn it in. Any help would be great. Nick Gawronski -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Pro Tools Accessibility group.

proper method for dealing with markers in Pro Tools 11 when working with elastic audio and using the quantize function
Hi, I am working on a class assignment that requires me to quantize drums to the grid using the click track. I have messed around with the quantize functions but when my instructor saw the project they said that there were way to many markers after setting the view for use with elastic audio and I did the quantize infront of them and they said the drums were not on the grid. I know about the option numpad 5 command but how using voiceover do you go about setting the values properly to quantize properly? I even went as far as to call Avid support and asked them if they could remote into my system and be my eyes for helping me out with this issue and they said they did understand about the markers but they don't teach usage of the software and could offer no suggestions as to how I can complete this assignment accessibley or who I could contact to help me either do this with voiceover or just be my eyes and I could explain what I needed done and we could work together to get this done. What at this point is my best option or is there someone directly at Avid I can contact to help me out get things properly setup in this session so these markers are properly lined up so when I do the quantize option the drums go to the grid?

Re: a word about Pro Tools 12
Hi, Does anyone know if the digi 003 with the moving controls is supported in Pro Tools version 12?

In other words, neither the iLok method or the built-in method is accessible yet. Both will be accessible in time, probably one before the other. At any rate, I've only had beta experience and, to me, it looks the same as far as I can tell. Mind you, I'll have to purchase an upgrade like everyone else but for the HD users, the cost is $599 and I won't be using it on the new machine yet so I might wait just a little while. Apparently, there's no option for a co-install of 11 and 12. Therefore, it would seem to me that this means no co-install of 10 and 12 as well. There's a lot of confusion about what the real case is.

Re: feedback needed for Pro Tools 12
Hi, One thing you might want to look into talking about is the ability to use the clip list where as a sited person can go into it and move a clip of audio back on to an existing track but I have not been able to do this in pro tools 11. Completely recreating or deleting tracks I don't think is the best option when you or the people you are working with like things to be in one order and when you do things like make new tracks that does not fix things. Better support for using elastic audio such as the ability after it moves audio if you need to do manual moves I have not been able to do this. One other thing is the ability using the keyboard to move tracks around and changing the hight and where voiceover will speak the information as currently nothing happens. What would it take for you to bring up these issues as a student if there are major accessibility improovments I would gladly upgrade to version 12?

This will be largely driven by bug submissions already within the beta system but I wanted to get a sense of what the user base is focused on day to day. My goal is to address quality-of-life issues that affect the use of Pro Tools with VoiceOver. For example, the way the inserts and, in particular, sends are displayed is simply awful. This needs to be overhauled. There are a number of such issues that can hopefully be taken care of in one marathon session of tweaks. I have a clear idea of what I personally think should be addressed but I thought I'd take the temperature of the community. What I'm asking of the list is for people to enumerate 3 to 5 things that most affect their productivity and would like to see improved. Now, I don't mean for people to suggest a different method for importing files to an existing track. That's a bigger fish to fry and the subject of a longer term solution. These are, as I said, quality-of-life issues that can be addressed quickly. Also, don't bring up issues in version 10. We're talking existing issues in version 11.

What am I missing as if I open up the sessions in pro tools they sound like they should but if I save them as midi they are all messed up and I have tried importing a midi file into pro tools to hear how the included pro tools midi maps sound but when I hit play even when I see the different tracks no sound plays?

Hiere is what i’ve done so far. I have an 88 note usb midi controller keyboard. i have this plugged in to my u s b hub. In my session i’ve inserted an stereo instrument track. I’ve then incerted the x band 2 plug over this track. But where do i find the library of categories to choos from, , also do i need to do anything else to get the keyboard set up for midi in p t.I really need to program drum tracks, so i guess somewhere i’ll need to select a midi channel and tell it to use channel 10. But not really sure how it all works in here. Steve -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Pro Tools Accessibility group.

Re: mouse tracking in Yosemite and the Apple Magic Track Pad
Hi, I usually upgrade to a new version of the Mac operating system by partitioning my hard drive into the number of partitions I will need for backward compatibility and in the installer for the new version press the show all disks button then name the partitions with the version of the operating system I am using so if I need to go back it is just a matter of going into start up disk and changing the disk then restarting. This task might be the best for all users but I find it gets the job done for me.

That's just the way Apple is. There's no particular method about the behavior in Pro Tools once you tether the mouse pointer except that sometimes adding the shift modifier to perform a physical mouse click seems to work a little better depending on the situation. The steps I outlined about use of the Track Pad are simply just an alternative to using a physical mouse.

Re: Accessability - Avid MBox Pro
Hi, The MBox that I looked at was the USB powered one that has two microphone plugs as well as a headphone plug and some other connections that I am not sure what they do.

Re: Accessability - Avid MBox Pro
Hi, I am thinking there are two different products with the same name as the one at school I looked at connects using an USB port and had the two microphone plugs along with the headphone plugs and other connections is this product that requires no external power to operate different then the one you are talking about?

Re: Accessability - Avid MBox Pro
Hi, Is this the same device that has the two inputs and just runs over the USB port and works with Pro Tools? I was thinking of buying one of these interfaces for recording when traveling but don't want to buy something I can't use for recording if portions are not usable with voiceover? Is this hardware usable on windows as well for connecting a good quality microphone to my computer and recording with the windows system?
