Storing lyrics

[Cal D]

Hey folks:

I am using Pro tools 8,0.5 and I am wondering if there is a way of storing song lyrics within the song's session?

Thank-you

Cal

Nothing within Pro Tools covers this, but a simple text file can be saved and dropped into the session folder. You could also take digital photos of hardware settings or mic positions and save those in a folder within the session folder.

Actually, Steve Massey made a free plugin many years ago called recall notes.
I did a quick, unsuccessful search. The Massey website made no sense to me.

Anyway, I think it might work for you, and with 8LE, RTAS won't be a problem.

If you can't find it, I could provide a copy for mac. I'm shure Steve won't mind.

Anybody heard from Massey lately?

There's also MNotepad: https://www.meldaproduction.com/MNotepad

Another option is to create blank MIDI clips for each line, naming them with the line of lyrics - that way they're right on the timeline, in the correct place (you just need a bouncing ball to sing along to).

Thanks to all. It would have been great to have something built right in to protools. It seems like such a simple thing to have allowed for, but what do I know.

In any event, thank-you for your ideas and suggestions.

Take care
