Re: Has anyone observed this with Ivory?

2015-11-26 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
OK Christopher, I imported a 90 second midi file into ProTools and had it play 
with the Ivory italian grand. An offline bounce took about 20 to 30 seconds.

Hi Christopher. I was speaking to someone from Ivory a few months back, and he 
recommended having the Ivory library on an external hard drive. You should be 
able to just copy the library files over I think. Can't help with the bounce 
slowness. Maybe try an online bounce. At least then it should only take as long 
as the song.

Re: confirmed plug-in automation issue

2015-08-28 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
Thanks for looking into that Slau.

OK, I’ll continue to follow ProTools development with interest, but I think I’m 
going to have to start thinking about windows and Reaper for audio work. I am a 
proffessional musician, but I don’t use ProTools as part of my money-making 
job, so after careful consideration I can’t justify £3000 on a control surface, 
just to be able to automate plugins, which was something I could do with any 
midi control surface using midi learn in sonar ten years ago.

Thanks again for all your work on PT accessibility.

Re: Hopefully a basic, easy to solve plugin automation problem

2015-08-28 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
Sorry, pressed the wrong button and sent the previous email again. ProTools is 
playing with my sanity levels. Here's what I meant to send.
It seems impossible to automate plugins using the mac keyboard. My friend has 
just done it with the trackpad and it works, but doing it with Voice-Over 
completely fails. 

If anyone feels saintly enough to have a go at recreating these steps and 
telling me what they experience, or helping to put me straight on this, then 
that would be great.

I put the track on autowrite, I enable the plugin control I want for 
automation. I change the control by interacting with it and using the arrow 
keys. The change occurs; I know this becuase I can hear it, and I’ve had 
sighted clarification. I then stop the project, put the track on read, and play 
the track at the point where the automation should be kicking in. Nothing 
happens. The plugin control just resets to where it was before I started, and 
there is no automation written.

My sighted friend manages to do exactly the same as I am doing only using the 
mouse to automate, and it works fine. Sickeningly, he is also able to make 
smoother changes simply with the mouse, but that’s another story.

I have the box unticked besides the auto enable plugins for automation option 
in the automation part of the mix tab in preferences.

I really don’t think ProTools wants me to have automation control over plugins. 
Surely this can’t be an accessibility issue, as it seems like a massive flaw. I 
tried this once a few months ago using PT11 and it didn’t work then either, but 
I was too busy to try anything at that time, and assumed I was diong something 
wrong.

Thanks folks. Let’s hope this isn’t another one to add the unsolved major 
problems list.

A delightful Avid support experience

2015-07-08 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
I'm sure a lot of you have probably done this before, but today I called up 
Avid support because I didn't have anyone sighted to hand, I'd just formatted 
my computer, and I really could do with cracking on with a ProTools session. 
Without hesitation, they said they were happy to remotely control my comuter 
and do the Ilok activation for me. It took just a couple of minutes and now I'm 
up and running. Jupt thought I'd share this positive news with you all, in case 
you weren't aware of the possibility of this option.

Thanks Scott. Looks like a combination of Reaper and Protools is probably my 
overall focus for now, but good to know that accessibility is reasonable in 
Logic. When you say "pitch time" what exactly are you talking about? I ask 
because my current solution for time stretching audio is making changes in the 
tempo ruler. This works great, unless you want to time stretch different tracks 
to different tempos. I am working on a crazy DJ project, and I'm doing a lot of 
time stretching on multiple tracks. As for pitch changes, I tend to do that by 
creating a region, then using the elastic audio window in the clips menu.

Just making sure there itn't a more productive in doing time stretching iq PT. 
Thanks for your help.

Hi, thanks for all this information. I don't plan on leaving ProTools, but it 
might be nice to have another option. Perhaps Logic might work better for midi 
and time stretching. Plus, perhaps it also supports VST, and maybe even works 
better with a control surface, given that it probably has a midi learn feature. 
And I assume that Logic is likely to get more accessible over time. So perhaps 
I'll give Logic a spin, and use it in conjunction with ProTools. Thanks for 
this.

'Actually, I don't think my bus idea would work, as you'd have to choose

Re: Artis mix control surface, or mackie or what?

2015-06-17 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
Hi Kevin, according to what I've read, the HUI mode of the BCF does not allow 
for plugin automation in ProTools, but only track pan, volume, mute, solo and 
transport controls, this includes busses, and possibly sends. If the XTouch 
uses a different HUI mode to the BCF then perhaps this is why the XTouch will 
allow plugin automation. If you've managed to achieve this with the XTouch then 
I'd be really interested to hear more, as lack of control surface pkugin 
automation is a bit limiting. I haven't managed to find anything on the 
Internet confirming that plugin automation is achievable with the XTouch. I 
suppose a call to Behringer might be the answer to determining this once and 
for all, unless we know of someone who is automating plugins with the XTouch. 
Here's hoping you're right though Kevin.

Re: Artis mix control surface, or mackie or what?

2015-06-17 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
Hi Ramy, the limitation with he BCF seems to be that you can't automate plugins 
with it. I've done a Google search on the X Touch, and there is nothing to 
suggest that it will allow you to automate plugin controls. So I'm not sure 
whether you'd find much of an improvement between the XTouch and the BCF.

Hi Ramy, "built like a tank" is an English expression. It refers to the 
military vehicle called a tank that is built to be strong, sturdy, solid and 
durable. So when Kevin says the Macki controlers are built like a tank, he is 
saying that the Macki control surfaces are strong, sturdy, solid, durable and 
built to last. Hope this explanation helps.

Re: C couple of queries about volume

2015-06-13 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
Alas, it seems t:at the BCF isn't able to support plugin automation in 
ProTools, at least according to the many articles and forum threads I've looked 
at. i suppose when I talked about Protools not having a learn facility, I meant 
a Midi Learn facility, which is a big shame. My solution at the moment is to 
use Reaper souly for those times when I really need to use a control surface to 
do plugin automation. This isn't too much of an issue, given that Reaper also 
supports VST, whereas Protools doesn't. 
Anyway, thanks for all your help.

Re: C couple of queries about volume

2015-06-12 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
Now that is interesting Slau. From what I've gathered from researching on the 
Internet that Midi Learn was discontinued after ProTools 9. So apologies if 
I've been misinforming the list on this one. In Sonar, you could essentially 
enter on a plugin control, select midi learn, and then twiddle that knob, fader 
or press the button that you wish to assign to that control. This seems like 
the most straight forward and logical solution.

How, out of interest, do you tell the Avid control surfaces to control plugin 
controls. Basically, is it easy to achieve?

Hi Brian, I'd love to be able to help you more, but you're using the BCF as 
much as I am. I only do panning and volume. I don't think it's possible to 
minipulate plugin controls with it unfortunately, or at least if there is then 
I've no idea how. Sadly Prrtools doesn't have a midi learn function like every 
other DAW, which is a bit frustrating, and I imagine is a restriction 
deliberately introduced to encourage people to buy Avid's own control surfaces 
where plugin automation is possible.

Hi Slau, I assume Flip Mode is a control surface specific thing? I'm just using 
a Beringer BCF at the moment. However, the clip gain feature seems to be 
perfect for my needs. I must give Keyboard maestro my attention at some point.

Hi Chuck' yes, I agree, Matt's Protools With Speech course is great. I assume

Hi Brian, I had the same problem. Go to system preferences, tab to mission 
control. There is a keyboard shortcut set to control and down arrow, which also 
sings to correspond to control shift and down arrow. VO Space on this shortcut 
and press down arrow until you hear, dash. That should solve the problem.

Hi Slau, it appears that there is a trim plugin, but I don't seem to be able to 
change the value of the paramiter which I assume is volume, given it's 0 DB 
reading. I can mute lept and right channels and invert the phaze, but the 
volume slider remains fixed. Asfor clip gain, I can't find a way to adjumt that 
anywhere. The only other solution could be to put each track I want to adjust 
on a seperate bus, and then I get a make shift work around.

Re: Having a bit of a struggle changing the tempo of audio

2015-06-08 Thread 'onlineeagle' via Pro Tools Accessibility
Hi, here's what I did to finally get it working like I wanted. Conductor track 
is inabled it the midi cluster. I make sure that the audio track I want to  
time change is selected first. I also make sure that elastic audio is enabled 
on that track, and that that it's set to ticks. I then go to the ruler and 
select tempo. Now I can VO-space on the tempo ruler and change the time of the 
audio which will apply itself to my selection, from the chosen start to end 
time. And I can make as many changes as I like. Hope this description makes 
sense. Thanks for all your help.

Re: Elastic audio revisited

Thanks Michael, that works excellently, insomuch as I am able to make one tempo 
change using this method, but I am trying to make multiple tempo changes to one 
piece of audio. And this is proving a challenge.

Hi Chuck, ticks is selected. I had it working before, but it just won't work at 
all now. I've even started a new project but it's still not working. The audio 
will not change. If you could talk me through how you would go about then I can 
see if I've missed anything. Thanks for your help. I've spent the wrole day on 
this one.

Elastic audio revisited

Hi, I would ideally have added this to the thread I created, but I dn't know 
how to do that when no one else has yet replied. It seems as if the issue was 
that I had conductor selected in the midi cluster transport view. When that was 
unticked it' all worked fine. I am trying to alter the tempo of some classical 
music so that it aligns to a click track. I don't seem to be able to make the 
necessary changes to th audio's length while the click track remains constant, 
but I have mixed down the click track and should be able to import the audio of 
the click and alter the classical piece's tempo while the bounced down click 
track is playing unaltered. Hope that makes sense. Anyway, I think it's all 
solved. Thanks.

Having a bit of a struggle changing the tempo of audio

2015-06-08 Thread onlineeagle

Hi, I've managed to do this before but it was awhile ago and I can't seem to do 
it now. I want to change 
the speed of an audio track. In fact, I need to make multiple changes 
throughout the track. I select the track I want to change. I make a time 
selection. I make sure that I have an elastic plugin option listed, in this 
case Poliphony. I go to event, tempo operation, then choose constant. Change 
the tempo value, hit apply, close the window, and sit in bemused frustration 
upon hearing that absolutely nothing has happened. Any help would be very 
welcome. Thanks.Sent from my iPhone
