Hey Slau. On the topic of plug ins, would a waves bundle be a wise investment if one is using a control surface? Or, would you recommend another company? Thanks, Cameron. -Original Message- From: ptaccess@googlegroups.com [mailto:ptacc...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Slau Halatyn Sent: Monday, November 22, 2010 2:28 PM To: ptaccess@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: plugins All plug-ins which have automate-able parameters are accessible in the sense that the parameters are visible to voiceOver as sliders. The odd exception apparently seems to be Waves at this time but I can't personally confirm the behavior. What will not be accessible are any menu buttons specific to the plug-in. For example, Waves has Load and Save buttons which are not visible because they're not automate-able. Most basic eQs and compressors don't use proprietary buttons.

Re: waves, was RE: plugins
Waves stuff is, of course, great and, with a control surface, it's possible to access parameters. Fader flip mode is essential in this case. Something like the Digi 003 works. I've heard that the Mackie Universal supposedly has this feature but I 'm not certain. Apparently the HUI had it and so did the JL Cooper surfaces. At any rate, yeah, their stuff is obviously fabulous but with a commensurate price tag, as you know. Slau On Nov 22, 2010, at 2:37 PM, Cameron wrote: > Hey Slau.

Re: waves, was RE: plugins
All the Waves plugs I've tried are automapped. Some things you can't get too as of yet because since as what was explained, they are not automatable. Great example would be some of the stomps in the GTR plug. Heck even the Waves Vocal plug-in is usable. HF On 11/22/10, Cameron wrote: > Hey Slau.

RE: waves, was RE: plugins
Hi Herman. ah, yeah, I was reading about the gtr3 and gtr solo plugs. what things can you access? Can you change things like channel, head, cabinet, eq, presence, and the effects on a given patch? I already have the Digi 11 rack but another guitar option might be good to have. I just bought the waves native power pack bundle today and that will be a good foundation along with the included plugs in pt9 for now at least.

Re: waves, was RE: plugins
You can change channel, head, cabinet, eq, presence, but not the effects on any patches. Plus we dont have access to pre-sets as far as I can tell. I would have to have someone load up a pretty heavy-duty pre-sets with lots of effects to see if I could move those. I'd like to think that you might be able to simply because some of those might be automatable. Will report back if I can get someone to load some up.

Re: waves, was RE: plugins
Waves uses their proprietary menu buttons which appear below the Pro Tools Factory Preset, Auto and Auto Safe buttons. These aren't technically part of the Coco portion of the plug-in window and so, are not visible, on top of not being automate-able parameters. It is possible, with sighted assistance, to call up a preset and save it to the Factory Presets menu. It's time-consuming but possible. QuicKeys would be a great tool to utilize in this case but also requires sighted assistance, that is, until someone writes some shorcut bundles that can be shared.
