Keyboard control surface?

2012-03-30 Thread Poppa Bear
Is anyone using the HOTKEY MATRIX - keyboard Control Surface for Pro Tools? It is a shortcut USB key board made for PT. I am considering it, but am not sure if anything in voice over will conflict with the short cut functions. Here it is, http://dnamusiclabs.com/hotkey-matrix Nate Kile,

From what I understand, markers are for saving spots in your project, whereas arrow keys are for marking regions for editing. You can change to SMTPE time in the counter display. It says counter display or something, can't remember. Anyways, hth, On 30/03/2012, Christopher-Mark Gilland

I know a ton of sighted PT dabblers that would love this, but can't really see how it'd be worth its price tag for a screen reader user. It would help you get things done if you find it easier to remember an 8x19 matrix of buttons than standard shortcuts, but given how key-happy VO itself is

I can understand what you guys are saying. I guess that my thought is that since I am coming over from PC and completely new to voiceover and PT that anything with dedacated buttons would possibly help the transition to be a little less drastic. It seems that with voiceover there is

hooking my soundcard to ProTools

Hi all, I feel terribly stupid as this question has never been asked on this list, but how do I select my inputs and outputs in ProTools? Is my hardware audio device recognised automatically? I can't see anything about this on the manual except that it says that I should look in my audio devices

Plug it in, and ensure it's recognised by seeing if it appears in the sound dialogue of System Preferences. If it doesn't, make sure the drivers are installed properly. When you've done that, set your device in the playback whatever it's called option in the Setup menu of Pro Tools. When it is,

I put them on the same track quite often, I just adjust the input gain on one or the other to adjust the amount of each affect going to the bus or track. Not sure how it works in PT, but you can genraly creat a sub bus as well to rout say your main reverb bus through, and on the sub bus you
