Re: More Lost or Deleted Regions-Really lost this time....

Just saw this myself for the first time: Today I recorded three takes of vocal/guitar, did an insert edit for one bar, and then added a plugin on the vocal (McDSP DE555). I went to turn on Delay...

Re: 8.0.3 giving "not an audio playback volume" error on hot swappable drives only

I'm seeing the same problem on an external drive that has previously worked just fine (until my recent upgrade to PT 8.0.3 LE). The drive is set to RECORD (always has been).

What DOES work every...

Re: Digi and the future

You know, there's no real reason PT9 HD can't be native, AND keep the PCI cards...

My Prediction:
What about a PCI card with an 16 core Intel chip (or two) on it? That way they can be "above" LE...

Re: Cannot Play iTunes in Digi Core Audio

Interestingly, it works FINE with my MBoxPro 2, without coreaudio. Just set the output to the Digidesign hardware choice in the output tab of the OSX's Sound system prefs. This won't work on HD...

Re: Question About Mirroring (MBox 2 Pro)

Short answer, the S/PDIF output is ALWAYS pure digital. Think about it: if it was "mirroring the analog signal" that would mean it was leaving Pro Tools (digital), converting to analog, then...

Re: Pro tools with the Motif XS

If I understand you correctly, what you need to do is to record 3-4 complete loops, and then try looping the 3rd or 4th repeat. That should give the reverb time to "settle" and get to a "consistent"...

Re: Delay compensation broken

(jumping in on someone else's thread)
In one situation it can be obvious - parallel processing. Any other situation, I would never notice it.

Re: Does Elastic-time affect the sound/tone, even on sections where it is unused?

I've noticed a particular scenario in polyphonic mode on acoustic guitar (one of EA's torture tests) where analysis markers can cause an audio glitch (ones without warp markers). Deleting these...

Re: RTAS instruments not sounding

I regularly use Vacuum and many other VI's on both Intel and PPC systems running PT8 cs3 on OCX 10.5.6, and always use instrument tracks. I haven't seen this problem, so I can't offer any help other...

Re: Weird, inconsistent Loop playback - WTF???

Do you have a track in record when it won't loop? That is one predictable way to not have looped playback even when "Loop Playback" is enabled.

Re: Why is my session 160 mb?

If this is still happening, check your preference setting for "Separate Region Operates on All Related Tracks" under the Edit tab I believe (I'm not at my system right now). If it's on, turn if off...

Re: HD mix on LE

Re: Need Plugin to see audio spectrum

Re: tabbing through MIDI notes does not work in PT8???

Re: Firewire 400 verses 800-the final word please

You can use FW 400 devices with the new macs by using a "turn around" cable (or adapter) going from FW800 on one end to FW400 on the other. I use a new 15" Macbook Pro with an MBox 2 Pro interface...
