Might as well be new

I may as well be new at this - I own a home studio and I have been running a 2006 iMac with a Digi-002 and PT 10 with OS 10.5.3 for about 10 years (the iMac since 2008). I think it's time for a...

Determining peak dB levels in a mix

A guy gave me his two track mixes on a CD and wanted me to tell him if they were too crunched to master. I imported them into PT but how do I figure out what the peak dB is and if the tracks are...

Re: Kontakt Player / Akoustic Piano loud noise

Strike all that. The problem is still there. Loud pop at playback stop followed by no more playback. Must restart Pro Tools to get sound again.

Very frustrating.

Anyone else experience this...

Re: Temporary Zoom tool shortcut like Kenny Gioia?

Indeed, go Kenny!

I don't believe the E key can be configured to change the cursor into the zoom tool.

Re: Temporary Zoom tool shortcut like Kenny Gioia?

Re: Temporary Zoom tool shortcut like Kenny Gioia?

OK I see that now... duh. But still he did not say how he was activating it. Is there another way besides that F-whatever key?

Re: Temporary Zoom tool shortcut like Kenny Gioia?

Are you sure that is the method he is using? He does it awfully damn fast. So you think his left hand is just sitting there on the F-whatever key hitting it repeatedly?

Maybe. Seems too fast...

True. I have used this method a few times. It really doesn't take all that long to separate out the esses. And once done, you're right, you have a lot of options.

Re: Evening out volumes on CD tracks

Thank you, Albee.

I have Maxim, but I also have the Massey 2007, which I like much better. I will check it to see if I can set the target level, but I don't think so.

Re: Recording Acoustic Guitar Questions

Even if the EQ is out of the circuit you are still listening to a pickup that has its own EQ characteristics designed into it by a human somewhere. I hope you love that person's ear.
