Re: The importance of a good MP3 encoder

The Pro Tools mp3 export option also uses the Fraunhofer codec.

Re: LOOPS!!

Your problem is in step 4. The values that come up for the start and end points are at the current session tempo, not the tempo of the loop. Since you're starting from 120, you always get 120.

Re: 44.1Khz or 48

You've got it backwards, I think. What's on your hard drive isn't a waveform, it's a collection of samples. When you look at them in PT, you just see the samples, connected by straight lines for...

Re: 44.1Khz or 48

But, of course, the cycle of the 1k sine is 20 times as long. Both have the same resolution--44100 samples per second--which, by the sampling theorem, is enough to reconstruct either one completely....

Re: BEST vocal sound?

Strange though it may seem, mono reverb can be nice on lead vocals. You can make it wetter without muddying the mix as much.

Re: stupid Mac question

The fonts are called "Adobe Sans MM" and "Adobe Serif MM". They live in the fonts folder in your system folder. ATM substitutes them for fonts that can't be found (e.g., if you open a document that...

Re: What do you use for click sound?

If you have the Virus plug-in, it's easy to make a decent-sounding click patch (noise as the source, both filter and volume envelopes set to short attack and delay and zero sustain), which can then...

Re: Working with loops in Pro Tools

Actually, you can use exponential growth instead of linear for faster results:

Re: 5.1

There are situations that aren't covered by delaying playback, the most obvious being when sending to an effect (e.g. a compressor) and mixing the effected signal with the original.

Re: What is the best way to take out a voice?

Do that, but first run one of the tracks through a high-pass EQ (make sure to delay the other track by the same amount--the easiest way to do this is to put EQs on both tracks and bypass one). This...

Re: sound design

You might want to check out Clavia's Nord MicroModular. It's a "virtual" modular synth, in the vein of a Moog 55 or Buchla, and while it doesn't capture everything it's an amazing piece of gear for...

Re: Digital vs Analog mixing: BEST SOUND ?

A couple of things. First of all, the idea that analog has "infinite" resolution is a myth. Oxide particles are not infinitely small. Threshold voltages of analog components are not infinitely...

Re: BOUNCE FILE LEVELS????

What PT does on a mono bounce is sum the channels. Since there's no set amount that this increases the volume, there's no way for PT to calculate a gain reduction, so it does the next best thing,...

Re: 888/24 won\'t go to analog

The first thing to do is to check your interface cable at both ends to make sure you don't have any bent pins. If you do, you can straighten them out with a small screwdriver or knife blade, just BE...

Re: 888|24 clips at or near 0 dB Full Scale!

The 888 is totally clean. It just has a hotter output than the Mackie can handle.

Re: 888|24 clips at or near 0 dB Full Scale!

The Mackie can't handle a full-code signal from PT unless you trim it down, as you've done. This used to drive me crazy until I figured it out.

Re: Digi001 convert needs MAC advice!!!

A 9600 works great for TDM systems, where you need lots of slots and don't need a fast CPU because the cards are doing all the processing. For a Digi001 system, though, a G4 is much, much better,...

Opcode makes a vocoder plug-in (TDM and AudioSuite), but given their current status I don't know if it's still available.

Re: Is 20 bit really bad?

Bob,

Your point is well taken but unless I'm wrong (and please correct me if I am!) when a 20-bit signal is padded to 24-bit, as in PT, all further processing accumulates "grunge" at the same...
