Re: Anyone tried Addictive drums under PT 11 and how's the accessibility status?

2015-04-09 Thread Scott Chesworth
Same deal as ever. AD1 shows up usable parameters, no native presets, but the Pro Tools with Speech boys have those. AD2 sounds infinitely better, but doesn't have usable parameters, and so far as I know nobody has done the presets dance for that one yet. In both cases and any other drum plugin

In PT 10, I could get some stuff done in Windows with screen scraping (IE, the virtual cursor of whatever screen reader), but nowhere near enough to run the DAW the way I can on Mac. This might've changed in PT 11 and up given that it seemed to be a pretty big re-write, but so far as I know, no

When I'm recording myself (not something I'm a fan of), I just play it uber safe with the meters and concentrate on the actual performance. It's too easy to get distracted. I'd say set levels using the chorus and the climax you mentioned, maybe take a slightly longer run at that part to make sure

The bad news is that there's a custom preset browser, mixer and authorisation system. However, if enough well labeled parameters are exposed to automation and either your dealer or FXpantion themselves could give you a hand with activation, it might still be usable. The good news is that there's a

Hi Brian, I see your question has already been answered, but it raises another one. The way its phrased suggests that you can read gain reduction with your current setup. I'm curious about what you're using, just because in both of my regular DAWs it isn't doable. Feel free to drop me a line off
