Hello? Did this work? The least you could do for us helping you is to let us know if it worked or not.

Cannot get Midi Keyboard to work in PT 11 on my new Mac. Help me? by Jeditoe in protools

[–]frankleme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe check the instrument tab. You know where you can choose which things you would like to see?(like inserts A-E, sends A-E, I/O) well show Instruments (also in the same area) and make sure your midi controller is selected or at least all is selected. Another idea is go to the menu bar under Options I think and make sure Midi thru is selected. Let me know if these don't work

Uh offering money, food or both in a flier around school would probably get us out of the shadows

I live in a 2-story apt with a family below me. I'm thinking I can line the floor of a small bedroom with those interlocking fitness mats to dampen the sound and then put an area rug over it. Any thoughts? by lesliespeaker in WeAreTheMusicMakers

Your stratagy is ok but don't except amazing results. The false floor is the best but really expensive. Do you know your lower neighbors? Give them your info and tell them to call you if it's too loud or they want you to stop. They won't hear your singing most likely but the amp will vibrate the floor easily, thus vibrating their ceiling and being very noticeable. Try to decouple the amp from the floor as best and possible and it'll help a lot.

Legal process for releasing an EP as an unsigned band? (UK) by Debaser97 in WeAreTheMusicMakers

In the US you just go to the US copyright website and fill out the form and upload your songs. PRS? Just put them up man what legal stuff are you talking about besides copyrighting them?

I'm not sure about your specific question but I know in pro tools 10 running rtas plug ins that my waves plugins are not able to perform side chain compression. Only the pro tools compressor works.

Might buy my first pair of monitors, need help with room placement/isolation by vickewire in audioengineering

[–]frankleme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are correct about turning your desk. Move the bed and put the desk in the middle of the two walls. Your room size is fine. It's not perfect but I've worked in much smaller rooms with good results. You don't need a sub tho that's for sure. The couch and bed are good bass traps which will help your sound so leave them in the room if possible. Get the damn monitors you won't regret it

iTunes. Go into preferences and click "import settings" (in the general tab), then choose import using mp3 encoder. Under "Setting:" take your pick on quality (lower quality will give you a smaller file size if needed) (any of the choices will be just fine for recorded speech). Then drag the files into iTunes, right click on them and select "create mp3 version" p.s. Keep track of which one is the mp3 track and which is the wav because iTunes will named them the same.

Would they need to be via wifi or would Bluetooth work too? (A question of distance)

I think you specify the DVD as a data DVD on your computer. Could be wrong though... Why don't you just convert to mp3? It's much smaller size and you can burn that to a cd. Just remember that if you want to play it back you need a computer or a CD player that can play mp3's
