Feature Request - Markers
The memory locations/markers in ProTools haven't been developed in many years and yet they are so incredibly useful.
Please AVID, please could we request some very basic database functions be added to Markers? 1. import and export markers as tab seperated text or CSV 2. add a category field for each marker with show/hide by category option in the marker list with show/hide marker by category option in the timeline Please? |

Re: Feature Request - Markers
And I'd love multiple marker sets as well. So often I want a 'spotting' set, and a 'conform' set, and various ones, that could be turned on and off independently.

Along the same lines, I'd love to see the marker "track" get playlists that have the ability to follow the other tracks. This would make it possible to mark sections for each consecutive take.

Re: Feature Request - Markers
I have been asking multiple marker tracks for years for the same reasons. When I am making notes for foley, I would like to do them to foley markers -track, which I can hide when I don't need it. And same goes to ADR, sound fx etc...
Please? |

They can be exported as text, imported to other sessions etc. etc. But generally I agree. PT´s logistical features for post are really getting dusty and dated (if available at all) compared to what the competitors are coming up with. I gues it´s because AVID´s strategy for years has been to lean back and rely on third-party mfg´s to come up with a solution. I guess a full ADR/Spotting feature set in PT doesn´t sell more icons

Re: Feature Request - Markers
renumber markers and "jump to next/prev marker" short cuts

Re: Feature Request - Markers
I would love to also see the ability to group the markers to certain tracks. I do a lot of book on cd editing. Markers are pretty much useless, because once you start editing in shuffle mode, the markers are off set from the audio. It would be great if you could have the markers follow your edits you make in shuffle mode.

Re: Feature Request - Markers
Recently I came across a situation where having multiple sets of markers would have made this " session from hell " a lot easier to deal with, as it came from another studio using poor PT workflow.
Anyway, it got me thinking that it seems it would be so easy to include a few more marker sets in PT. They would be just like groups -- You hit Enter on the fly, and when the window comes up, you can choose which Marker Set 1, 2, 3, 4, ... you want said marker to belong to. Each set would have its own color and timeline strip. You could choose which sets to show and hide, same as other views like show/hide Song Key. This would be so helpful at the various stages of a project. You could have your tidy Verse/Hook markers in one set and then have a new set for just edits or comps, which can get very messy. You could also use a set for a to-do list, such as from Marker X to Marker Y the song needs gtr ODs, and things like that. The ability to show and hide these sets would make things so much cleaner at various points in the production process. I HATE when Im working with someone who shouts outs " mark that drum fill!, mark that lyric! " and it clutters up my most important Set which is obvs the song arrangement. How cool would it be to have your static song arrangement set nice and clean, but then also, in a different color (both the diamond and the vertical line) and its own timeline strip, have your fav parts of a take which you can easily see the in and out points for edits, then hiding that set once youre done? With optional color coding, its endless! You could listen to 5 takes of a song, and use, say, green colored marker lines for the good Verses, and red colored for the parts you dont like. Then you could visually see, much clearer, what your comp will be.... just an example. Multiple Marker lists would have sooo many uses IMO, and I dont get why PT never had this feature. Do other DAW apps have it? Thx MT
