FW: taking the plunge
From: Steve Sparrow [mailto:i...@sparrowsound.com.au] Sent: Wednesday, March 12, Hi. My name is Steve Sparrow. I have just joined the list here. I am very seriously considering working with pro tools. I am currently a sonar user running sonar 8.5 with jaws. I am now considering pro tools, mainly because as we know the current sonar is no longer as accessable as it was. I have not bought a mac yet, but I think I'm getting very close to doing so. I know a little about voice over, and would be happy to put the time in to learning it. But I have never used pro tools and no nothing of it's workings. So not really sured just where to start. I guess the first thing to find out is just how much access we have. I run a recording studio, and use sonar just about all the time. Does pro tools give us as much accessability as what I am used too in sonar. I am quiet happy to put the time in to learning a new system, if I can turn it in to a good solid work horse. I also use a lot of waves plugins. mainly waves API, and ssl 4000 colections. I also use a free analogue emulater called endorphin. Do these programs work with pro tools, and can we get to the main perametres. A lot of questions.

Re: taking the plunge
Hi Steve, Welcome to the list. I can't comment on the comparison to sonar as I've never used it. I've used Pro Tools since around 2001 after switching from an analog console and multitrack tape machine. I won't sugarcoat it: you have a steep learning curve in front of you. You'll need to understand VoiceOver like the back of your hand as well as have a good grasp of the OS and how it works. Aside from that, Pro Tools is undoubtedly a complex program but so is Sonar and you learned that over time so, most importantly, you'll have to plan to spend a bunch of time learning it if you decide to go down this path.

Re: taking the plunge
Hi Steve: i'm starting to learn pro tools, and i'm a sonar user, from what i can tell u til now, sonar and the jsonar can provide an easier way of achieving things for us as blind engineers, but pro tools becomes our solution because mac and voice ovver is much much better. and OSX mavericks is more stable than any windows OS. thanks so much Ramy moustafa saber Musicc instructor at: faculty of musical education music arranger and sound engineer Sent from my iPhone > On Apr 11, 2014, at 7:43 AM, "Steve Sparrow" wrote: > > Hey Poppa bear.

Re: taking the plunge
Thanks for this. yes. well, i've only had the mac for about a week and a half now, and i mast admit, i've really enjoyed working with it. It does seem nice and stable. Lots of interesting learning ahead. Out of interest, what audio interface are you running with tools.

Re: taking the plunge
Well Steve, I would think about the Digi 002, 003 or avid artust series. The
Digi 002 will be the cheepist, but if you need good built in preamps, it is the
bottom of the line more or less. Also, the 002 can work with Protools 11, but
may not carry over to any versions after 11, I have a 002 and a 003 as well as
the onyx 1620I. Are you going to use outboard pres or converters? Are you going
to be recording professionally for clients, or for more personal stuff? These
answers will make a difference. If you were recording for your self, you could
probably get away with some of the UA apollo stuff and have some decent
converters, pres and affects/plugs, but if you will have larger sessions where
you would record multable sources at once then a control surface would be the
way to go IMO.

Hi Steve,
Welcome to the list. I can't comment on the comparison to sonar as I've
never used it. I've used Pro Tools since around 2001 after switching from an
analog console and multitrack tape machine. I won't sugarcoat it: you have a
steep learning curve in front of you. You'll need to understand VoiceOver like
the back of your hand as well as have a good grasp of the OS and how it works.
Aside from that, Pro Tools is undoubtedly a complex program but so is Sonar and
you learned that over time so, most importantly, you'll have to plan to spend a
bunch of time learning it if you decide to go down this path.

Re: taking the plunge
Hi, I would look at the guitar center stores as I got my digi 003 there
on line and they are still around if you search for them. Mine came with
an older version of pro tools but as I already had my pro tools 10 I did
not use it but still have it and the ilok for that earlier version. How
much do you think I could get for that older ilok and the pro tools
software version 8? Nick Gawronski

Hi Steve,
Welcome to the list. I can't comment on the comparison to
sonar as I've never used it. I've used Pro Tools since around
2001 after switching from an analog console and multitrack
tape machine. I won't sugarcoat it: you have a steep learning
curve in front of you. You'll need to understand VoiceOver
like the back of your hand as well as have a good grasp of
the OS and how it works. Aside from that, Pro Tools is
undoubtedly a complex program but so is Sonar and you learned
that over time so, most importantly, you'll have to plan to
spend a bunch of time learning it
Re: taking the plunge
Just to add to my last email. I have also looked at the usb pre sonis and would consider this if is accessible with voice over, I've also thought about the apolo, but there is not much i o on the u a d stuff. But i've heard great things about there plugging. I know ford and others on this list uses u a d plugging, But i'm not sure about accessibility on there hardware. As i said, i'm happy to consider all options. I'd also settle for less mic press if everything else was looking good.

Hi. Yes, that's me with the Motu 828MKII firewire audio/midi interface for sale. The drivers are really solid and the preamps are very clean with a lot of headroom. Mac/Win;32 and 64 bit compatible... Drop me a message off list if interested. Thanks, Cameron.

Re: taking the plunge
Hi caneran. I am actually considering the motu 869. hybrid mk iii From what i can gather it's basically the same as the 828 with a few extras. Just wondering about your thoughts on this interface. I am a new voice over user on the mac, and have used windows and jaws for years in the studio. are there any issues with accessibility using this card. Can we get around the hardware ok. I hav heard from gord that is easy to go in to parameters that we don't want, and upset some of our settings. What are your thoughts on this. The other big things i need to know are. Does voice over interact with the motu well on the mac. and is it good for jaws on a pc. Sounds like the motu will meet my needs, subject to accessibility. the specks look good. Guess the only very minor concern i had when looking at the specks was that it only has 53 d.b. of gain on the press. But think i can deal with this, and from what you've said, the head room is good. I like the fact that there are 8 good mic press in this interface, and gain nobs. A lot of other cards i've looked at seem to have gain control as part of there software, and i was not sure if i could get around this. i'm interested in purchasing the motu, unless you feel there are issues i should be aware of. Also if you feel i should be considering something other than the motu i'd be interested in your thoughts. nothing set in concrete here.

Re: taking the plunge
Ok. Thanks for this mat. I have heard good things about the scarlet. Think i'll just go and check this out. Do you know if it works with windows and jaws, running sonar. I am just getting in to the mac, only had one for a couple of weeks. I will more than likely be running sonar 8.5.3 for at least a few months yet. But tools is ware i'm heading i think. Focus right do some nice stuff. Thanks again.

Re: taking the plunge
ok. This is very good to know. I will research this a bit more. Out of interest, how did you find reaper. How does it compare to pro tools for you. I have not really played with either yet. Had a little play with reaper, and i reckon i could get it sussed with a bit of work. Have not seen pro tools at all yet. But i'm about to get the pod casts from apple vis.

I never thought I'd see the day, but I'm taking the plunge into ProTools!
Hello all, My name is Ben J. Bloomgren, and I live in Scottsdale, Arizona. Very shortly, I'll receive ProTools MP9 alongside some other gear. I learned about this list via Chris Gilland, who has made marked improvements in his music since he joined this list! You guys have been a godsend for him. I, on the other hand, will not be doing music for the foreseeable future. My best friend asked that I record her wedding next month, and my PT work will be spoken word. Nevertheless, I look forward to working with musicians and spoken word people alike, as PT is a powerful piece of software with endless applications from what I've heard. I do plan to crossgrade my iLock to a newer version. Sincerely in Christ, Ben J. Bloomgren, Customer Service Representative, CLG Productions, http://www.clgproductions.com, b...@clgproductions.com 1-704-256-0067 Hours: Mon-Fri, 8:00 to 5:00 PM EST except for holidays. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Pro Tools Accessibility" group.

Re: I never thought I'd see the day, but I'm taking the plunge into ProTools!
Hello Ben. Welcome abord! Great to see a new user getting on board the PT wagon. If I, or anyone else on here can answer any questions for you, don't hesitate to let us know. That's what we're here for, and you'll find none of us bite. We have some very very knowledgeable people on here. Not to leave anyone out, but for example, Kevin Reeves is on here, so is Slau Haliton, or as you might or might not know him... jerry Haliton, although he I think prefers going by Slau, Dono if Venny is on here or not. I think he is, but not sure. Chuck Reichel is also on here, you may remember me talking to you about him. Really all of us on here are very friendly, or at least I think, so don't ever feel like there is such thing as a dumb question. When it doubt ask. A lot of the stuff for now might on here go over your head, but don't worry, you gotta start somewhere. Anyway, ultimately the bottom line is, wlcome to the list. We're all glad to have you~!
