Re: A few Starter Questions

2014-07-07 Thread Rosco Vittore

Hey again.

I am aware of the web site you mention. I asked a friend of mine who 
purchased all three modules if my questions were covered either in the free 
video content, or in the paid audio. I was told that though virtual 
instruments are covered in some of the free video content, they are very 
basic in nature and only discuss how to use the xpand instruments, which as 
I said, I do not wish to do if I can at all avoid it. I know there is the 
option of live musicians, but that gets very costly, and it's not something 
that I can afford on a day in/day out basis.


Regarding the midi event editor in version 11; I am told that the tutorials 
which you speak of are all done with version 10.0. (Not 11.) For this 
reason, the midi event editor is not covered. So though I appreciate your 
suggestion of this web site, I don't suppose it's going to help with my 
current questions.


Have a good day.

Hello ladies and gentlemen.



I am new to this list, though not new at all to the concept of digital 
audio recording. I recently bought a copy of Pro-Tools version 11, which I 
am running on an IMac with OSX 10.9 Mavericks. I seem to be doing decently 
with what I have taught myself so far regarding this amazing masterpiece 
of software. I have a few questions, if you all will spare me.




I am curious to know if there are any people on this list who are using 
Pro-Tools 11 that can briefly explain to me the concept of editing bad 
notes which I have played via midi. From what I'm told, the midi event 
editor is now accessible in version 11. This is honestly one thing that 
held me back from using PT for the longest of time. I'll admit that I am 
quite old school. My Windows PC studio machine is still running Cakewalk 
Pro-Audio version 9, if that tells you anything. I need not say, 
therefore, that it is definitely time for me to update to newer - not to 
mention more industry standard technology. Once I heard that the midi 
event editor was now accessible, this is one of the biggest things which 
made me take my gamble at purchasing the software.




My second question is believe it or not, I'm not the biggest fan of the 
xpand instruments. Don't misinterpret what I mean. Some of the samples are 
decent, but not enough to where I prefer it. What other plugins are out 
there which are accessible? I was going to purchase Synthogy's Ivory for 
my piano work, however I heard it wasn't accessible out of the box. I also 
considered getting Pianoteq but again, I heard that putting in the 
activation serial number was inaccessible. I'm also looking for a good 
plugin for strings, and for good acoustic guitars. Again, I know that 
xpand offers all of this, but I found the samples to not always be the 
most appealing. Many will no doubt disagree with me, but I have a very 
specific sound that I am looking for. It's not a sound I can describe in 
words, but if you all will suggest some other plugs that I could try, it 
would be appreciated.




I think that's it for now. Thank you all for any help. I very much look 
forward to learning more on this list.

Please stay tuned to the ProToolsWithSpeech.com  site, as over the
next several weeks there will be several free tutorials added that
address your very questions. We have been working to put together
several PT 11 videos and the next three or four deal specifically with
midi.  We also plan to do some demonstrations soon with addictive
drums and Keys.

Hello Slau.

Thank you for your very prompt answer. I'm a bit confused. What exactly is 
the main difference between the functionality of the midi editor, vs. the 
midi event window?

Re: A few Starter Questions

2014-07-07 Thread Rosco Vittore

Matthew, thank you so much. I will definitely keep an eye out.

When you mention "Keys," are you referring to the piano soft synth that 
simulates the piano used by Alicia Keys? If so, is there a place I can 
download a trial of it? Do you know if it needs an ILok to be licensed, 
seeing the inaccessibility of the License Manager?  By the way, is there any 
status on this? Someone, though I can't recall whom, told me that Pace 
Antipiracy was working on a solution.


Also and finally, do you know how much the Keys plugin is, if we are indeed 
speaking of the same plugin?  Finally, I agree with Mister Gilland.  I am 
very much into listenning to and learning about new blind artists. this 
said, I'd love to buy your stuff, and though I've not directly heard your 
version of The Old rugged Cross, that is one of my favorite tunes. I'd love 
to get that album. Especially if the rest of it is also gospel in nature.


Best regards,

Good morning,
I was speaking of Addictive keys from XLN audio.
http://www.xlnaudio.com/addictivekeys
While in the AAX version have been difficult to completely customize,
there are several presets that once loaded are usable with VoiceOver.
Also, though not authorized with an iLok, the XLN audio online
installer may require sighted help to get up and going. Take a listen
to some of the audio samples there, and I suspect you'll appreciate
the sound.

Hi Rosco,

The MIDI Editor is a graphic piano roll type display similar to the timeline in 
the Edit window where Midi events are represented in a series of dots and bars. 
While it's possible to scrub within this window, the accessibility is limited. 
In the MIDI Event List window, the events are displayed in a table much like 
other DAWs. It's possible to edit individual parameters in multiple ways. 
Perhaps that clarifies things a bit.

Best,

Slau

Hello again Slau.

Yes sir... I assume you're a sir... please forgive me... LOL!  That does 
make sense. Thank you for the clarification.


Have a wonderful day.

Good morning,
I was speaking of Addictive keys from XLN audio.
http://www.xlnaudio.com/addictivekeys
While in the AAX version have been difficult to completely customize,
there are several presets that once loaded are usable with VoiceOver.
Also, though not authorized with an iLok, the XLN audio online
installer may require sighted help to get up and going. Take a listen
to some of the audio samples there, and I suspect you'll appreciate
the sound.

When you mention "Keys," are you referring to the piano soft synth that
simulates the piano used by Alicia Keys? If so, is there a place I can
download a trial of it? Do you know if it needs an ILok to be licensed,
seeing the inaccessibility of the License Manager?  By the way, is there 
any


status on this? Someone, though I can't recall whom, told me that Pace
Antipiracy was working on a solution.

Also and finally, do you know how much the Keys plugin is, if we are 
indeed


speaking of the same plugin?  Finally, I agree with Mister Gilland.  I am
very much into listenning to and learning about new blind artists. this

to get that album. Especially if the rest of it is also gospel in nature.

Best regards,

Rosco,
Please stay tuned to the ProToolsWithSpeech.com  site, as over the
next several weeks there will be several free tutorials added that
address your very questions. We have been working to put together
several PT 11 videos and the next three or four deal specifically with
midi.  We also plan to do some demonstrations soon with addictive
drums and Keys.

Hey again.

I am aware of the web site you mention. I asked a friend of mine who
purchased all three modules if my questions were covered either in the
free

video content, or in the paid audio. I was told that though virtual
instruments are covered in some of the free video content, they are 
very
basic in nature and only discuss how to use the xpand instruments, 
which


as

I said, I do not wish to do if I can at all avoid it. I know there is
the
option of live musicians, but that gets very costly, and it's not
something

that I can afford on a day in/day out basis.

Regarding the midi event editor in version 11; I am told that the
tutorials

which you speak of are all done with version 10.0. (Not 11.) For this
reason, the midi event editor is not covered. So though I appreciate
your
suggestion of this web site, I don't suppose it's going to help with my
current questions.

Have a good day.

Hello ladies and gentlemen.



I am new to this list, though not new at all to the concept of digital

am running on an IMac with OSX 10.9 Mavericks. I seem to be doing

I am curious to know if there are any people on this list who are 
using

Pro-Tools 11 that can briefly explain to me the concept of editing bad
notes which I have played via midi. From what I'm told, the midi event
editor is now accessible in version 11. This is honestly one thing 
that

held me back from using PT for the longest of time. I'll admit that I
am
quite old school. My Windows PC
