Default Re: Pro Tools 9 Waveforms

hahaha cool to see a solution I am just saying that waveforms are just wave forms, they still got recorded the same. Like it's funny when people try to tell me a control 24 or a c24 improves their sound, both completely different subjects but i mean a wave form style or a controller these things are just pretty nothing more.

I know you have no dreams to get hired into a big studio and probably just want your own or most likely have your own set up, which is fine. I am just saying if you went into a major studio for an interview and they had a room with pro tools 6 or an older TDM system and you made a comment about the wave forms you most likely lost the opportunity.

I have had my share with in studio experience and on set film audio production as well as post fortunately never had to be a runner, unfortunately always chose to work for free. Uneducated? hmmm I am no rocket scientist but is that word even proper english. maybe but i dont use the term. In the pro audio realm there is a thin line between education, experience, popularity, and talent. I went to school and continue to follow the boards and read up as well as stay in touch with friends who own studios. Experience, well only 5 years but I am only 23, I have about a 10 year span of experience on radio broadcasting gear from the 80's and 90's but that isn't my cup of tea. Popularity.. hmm talk all the crap about the wicked clowns violent j and shaggy 2 dope you want, talk all the crap about ICP and good friend of Kid Rock known as Mike E Clark, talk all the crap about Esham and some of Detroit's finest underground rappers and talk all the crap about this run on sentence, I can definitely say I know the right people. Talent, took a while to discover the engineering talent as I was impatient at first but I have been rapping since i was 14.

the point isn't bragging rights or what I am or how good I am because I am and you are only as good as the artist says. If someone says you are the best at that moment you are, if someone says you suck the next day well guess what to that client you do the customer is always right.

Now to the point, pretty doesn't make big records, talent does as well as the proper names to help promote it. The more experience the more likely your connects will help promote it. If it sounds good education means nothing, anyone who can make a good sounding mix and master is educated, proper education meaning knowing every single piece of gear, how to work it, every detail all your pro tools hot keys and everything you can imagine falls under education and when it gets that detailed really its to land a good job for like Dreamworks or something lol. I am educated but not perfect.

you don't want a lecture this isn't one, just communicating through the forums, trying to give my input, call me out on crap as long as you post against it meaning you prove me where I am wrong, we learn something new every day. An audio engineer will never be an enemy to me only a friend or a mentor of some kind, we must stick together and i never mean to be a dick so i apologize if it seems or seemed that way.

so what do you say? are we cool? seriously
