Re: Coffee & Consoles

It'll be tough for me in Columbus, OH to make it for such things. Though, I'd consider flying out if it's worth it. Is there any kind of on-site training available?

Re: Inserts and plugins GUI odd behaviour

I was literally about to start a thread regarding problem #1. I'm having the same issue.

In my case, though, I'm using auto expand for EQ and DYN. But, the plugin windows don't close when I switch...

Re: Displaying input/preamp is slow

It's the same for me. I have another thread about it here: http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=400652

Re: Cycle thru EQs in Expanded Knob Mode

I have. It's been very handy, and an excellent way to work - my go-to workflow right now. I was just hoping to maybe add a touch of speed and intuitiveness to my flow by having the same functions pop...

Re: Process Knobs Slow to Load

Yes to all of the above. WSControl is running by itself; no EuControl running.

Re: Cycle thru EQs in Expanded Knob Mode

While rummaging around, trying to figure out how to cycle eq/dyn myself, I did find a (sort of) workaround with this.

Cycling the plugins on the channel strip itself (e.g. double-tap 'Dyn' or...

Re: Process Knobs Slow to Load

I can confirm that it happens with EQ and DYN as well, but it's not as long with those with 'All' on - a few seconds.

Also, loading one function doesn't seem to affect the initial load time of the...

While we're at it, why not make gain/normalize able to adjust clip gain,...
