12:28:49 From Ray Toler : Good morning, Matt. 12:28:52 From Kubilay Uner : Hey there! 12:28:53 From kennethpage : Hi Matt. 12:28:57 From Ken Thies : Hi, Matt! 12:28:57 From Darrell Smith : Hey Matt! 12:28:59 From Wayne Pronzati : Hi Matt! 12:29:27 From John Atkinson : Hello all 12:29:44 From Paul Lenart : Hi everyone! 12:30:02 From Robert Thomas Mein : Good morning Matt! 12:30:12 From Benoit Widemann : Hello everyone! 12:30:29 From Dave Hayward : Love the cat pictures…. 12:30:29 From Glenn Workman : MOTU posted Webinar #3 yesterday: https://motu.com/en-us/products/software/dp/webinars/april-2020/ 12:30:40 From kennethpage : Hi Glenn. 12:30:52 From kennethpage : Thanks Glenn. 12:31:12 From Warren McRae : Hey Everyone! 12:31:12 From Adam Goldman : always grateful for the smart questions you ask Matt, Benoit W 12:31:24 From kennethpage : Can’t wait to get to them.’ 12:31:26 From Neil McCarroll : Hi everyone, Happy Friday 🍻 12:31:27 From James Paschall : #3 posted. That’s great! Thanks, Glenn! 12:31:33 From Warren McRae : Great news Glenn, thanx! 12:31:37 From Paul Colombo : Hello! 12:31:52 From raymoore : Good Morning Matt. 12:32:21 From Kubilay Uner : Yeah way more than two percent here as well.... 12:32:42 From Paul Lenart : what’s VI? 12:32:58 From gReg Silvus : virtual instrument 12:33:01 From kennethpage : VI is virtual instruments 12:33:01 From Neil McCarroll : it has stopped me jumping to Logic - very grateful! 12:33:02 From Paul Lenart : Great movie! 12:33:07 From Glenn Workman : Paul: Virtual Instruments. 12:33:15 From Charles White : Neil, me too. 12:33:18 From Paul Lenart : Thanks kenneth 12:33:29 From Carol Laula : It’s evening here in Scotland! 12:34:27 From Kenneth Sarkey : Hello MOTU friends! 12:34:33 From Neil McCarroll : Hi Carol - wet and a bit grey in the Borders - but at least it’s officially past drink o’clock! 12:34:54 From Ella Segretti : to me it sounds like people having a crash problem are trying to find a reason so they can report it 12:35:10 From Matthew Komaiko : Does anyone use Reason with DP? Is there a detailed setup explanation anywhere? 12:35:16 From Carol Laula : We got a bit of sun this afternoon Neil! 25 seconds. I hope you are safe and well 12:35:19 From Ray Toler : Apple’s making that sweet spot unobtanium for me. ;-) 12:35:35 From Roberto Colombo : @Ella: are you really convinced about what you wrote ? :-) 12:35:38 From Ray Toler : Matthew, are you using the latest version of Reason? 12:35:51 From Ken Thies : I agree, Ella. I always like to hold off on any bug report (regardless of the software) until I have a decent idea of what is *really* going on. 12:35:53 From Kubilay Uner : High Sierra 10.13.6 and DP10.11 is rock solid for me 12:35:57 From Neil McCarroll : Back to normal Carol! 12:35:59 From Glenn Workman : Matthew: Matt showed the Reason plug-in a few webinars ago. No longer using Rewire to connect. 12:36:05 From Robert Turner : That's what I did with DP7.2 in 1994!! Didn't upgrade until 2016 with DP8.1!! 12:36:05 From Kubilay Uner : On 2012 12-core Trashcan 12:36:20 From Matthew Komaiko : Yes, Reason 11 and DP 10.11 12:36:27 From Robert Turner : It wasn't broke, so I didn't fix it!! LoL 12:36:37 From Roberto Colombo : IMO a crash is something annoying, because in the worst case you lose some tie of works, and reporting about it is the right thing to do... the difficult and tricky part is to identify the scenario where the crash happened and be able to reproduce 12:36:58 From kennethpage : Jim. I got a gig too. I can’t stay long 12:37:02 From Ray Toler : Matthew, I think the easiest way these days is to just instantiate the Reason rack as a plugin, but you can still use ReWire if you prefer to work in Reason’s sequencer. 12:37:15 From Ella Segretti : Roberto rather. I think many of us try to diagnose before we make noise, or reach out to see if utters have a similar experience the. try and narrow it down. as a software developer myself, chasing ghosts is hard work, especially when something it's keypress replicatable. 12:37:49 From Ella Segretti : Ken exactly, or at least something unique to oneself. 12:38:07 From gReg Silvus : Matt sounds a little quiet today 12:38:12 From Simon Foster : Gigs? What happened to lockdown? 12:38:31 From kennethpage : I’m performing outside. 12:38:37 From Eric Brown : My Bass player in my Rock band is an Apple Certified Tech with a shop in Gloucester, MA and told me don’t upgrade my OS to Catalina because it wipes any music that iTunes has on it that you didn’t buy from Apple when you install. Anybody know if they fixed that or is there a work around? 12:38:39 From Simon Foster : ah 12:38:49 From Glenn Workman : Yesterday I mentioned I could hold a zoom after-party for today, but I got a gig that I have a 3 hour drive to get to and will be leaving at 2PM eastern. If anyone wants to do one tomorrow please email me with the topic After Party. I’ll send an invite and we can do about the same time of day tomorrow (12:30 Eastern US). 12:38:58 From Roberto Colombo : @Ella,: I have 30 years of SW development and I also know enough well the HW, as I am an engineer... narrowing down is what I always try to do... I agree that just reporting: Ï goot a crash and pls fix it"is not very helpful for MOTU... but there is no doubt that DP 10 Windows 10 is yet not at the level it should be 12:39:00 From Paul Colombo : I played outside last Saturday. Felt real good. 12:39:08 From Matthew Komaiko : I don't want to use Reason's sequencer. Just use it as an instrument 12:39:13 From Adam Goldman : Eric Brown: not my experience. Moved to Cat, no issues with Music app 12:39:33 From Neil McCarroll : have a good gig Glenn 12:39:35 From Ray Toler : Ella, to your point, most of my career has been in IT, and I know how to troubleshoot. In one case, it ended up being a corrupt project, but I don’t report to MOTU every time it crashes, only if it’s a consistently reproducible error. I’m not trying to overstate the issue, but I’m not the only person having crash-on-bounce issues. If I hadn’t seen anyone else having the problem, I would have assumed my system was the culprit. 12:39:58 From Glenn Workman : Simon: Maryland is allowing outdoor dining, and this is outside at a yacht club patio. 12:40:12 From Jacki Barineau : I’ve also had crash on bounce issues but have been told it’s fixed in th next build! 12:40:13 From Simon Foster : stay safe Glenn! 12:40:21 From Ray Toler : Same here, Jacki 12:40:28 From Roberto Colombo : @Matthew: I use Reason 11 as VST in DP10... a bit tricky: you can't add on a audio track because Dp10 will crash (indeed...) 12:40:28 From Simon Foster : we don’t have any dining any where yet in the UK 12:40:33 From Glenn Workman : Neil: thanks, I plan to. 12:40:40 From Glenn Workman : Simon: Thanks 12:40:54 From Caxa : @Matthew I believe Reason Rack just installs like a normal VI, if that’s any use. 12:40:59 From Neil McCarroll : Outdoor gigs and the weather for it - I’m emigrating! 12:41:14 From Ray Toler : I’ve been very happy with my AVB gear. 12:41:22 From Ella Segretti : Roberto re the later part, very likely. that's why I suggested people do a memory test. that eliminates any question of hardware. It does seem to be a memory allocation error so either a malloc that hasn't been allocating properly or too much being shover at it causing a corruption that watchdog Ring Protection is kicking in 12:41:38 From Matthew Komaiko : You can put reason on an audio track, but it doesn't show up as a VST instrument 12:41:39 From kennethpage : I’ve been waiting forever to get into my 1248. Thanks Matt. 12:41:39 From Ella Segretti : unfortunately I don't have a windows 10 system, I'm stable in windows 7 :) 12:41:50 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : If you are having crashing while BTD in DP 10.11, and you are bouncing tracks, try bouncing their output instead (don’t bounce the track). 12:41:57 From Rich Switzer : you could do 6 months on just routing!!! 12:42:07 From Kenneth Sarkey : Matt’s mic level seems better today than previous webinars. 12:42:20 From Glenn Workman : Neil: This group (Sons of Pirates) is a party beach band. In Maryland between the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay you wouldn’t believe how many dock bars and yacht clubs (loosely labeled as such, usually a bar with a dock) there are. 12:42:46 From Ella Segretti : Ray exactly, and this is a great forum for people to quickly share out and maybe pinpoint something that narrows the Hohum down :) 12:42:51 From Roberto Colombo : @Matthew: I made it working by adding Reason 11 as a VST of an AUX track 12:43:04 From Russ Pfeifer : People will be ready to rock 12:43:16 From Matthew Komaiko : how do you send MIDI from DP into Reason? 12:43:23 From Neil McCarroll : Thanks Glenn for rubbing salt in the wounds! 12:43:23 From Paul Colombo : Glenn: I have played Lee’s in Port Deposit. 12:43:29 From Roberto Colombo : as input of the audio track 12:43:34 From Glenn Workman : Someone asked about using the Pro Audio Control with a MOTU interface. That was one of the things we were going to touch on in the after party. Hopefully tomorrow. 12:43:37 From David Roth : In DP, I work mostly with stereo tracks. I have a stem a client sent me which is mono. I forgot how to do this, but how can I pan a mono audio track? Do I setup an AUX to do this? 12:43:47 From kennethpage : Jim - Glenn - Matt. I need a Webinar just on this 1248. 12:43:50 From Roberto Colombo : ar@matthew: are you in MOtuGuru FB group ? If you are, pls msg me 12:44:19 From Glenn Workman : Paul: Just played their other club Tiki Lee’s last Sunday. First gig since March 14. Same owner (Bud Craven). Tiny stage at Lee’s landing, as you know. 12:44:59 From Paul Colombo : Glenn : yes. Last Saturday was my first outside of a virtual gig since 3/14. 12:45:32 From Glenn Workman : David: There should be a pan knob right on the Mixing Board. If you need to manipulate a bit more the Trim plug-in gives some options for switching stereo sides, panning to center, gain changing L or R, etc. 12:45:38 From Matthew Komaiko : just asked to join. I'm pending 12:45:56 From Matthew Komaiko : Roberto, I'll reach out to you once I'm accepted 12:46:07 From Roberto Colombo : @Matthew: you need to send a check to Roberto... :-) 12:46:42 From Glenn Workman : kenneth: Yes, couldn’t remember who mentioned it the other day, but I’m happy to help. I’m using an 8M but the signal flow in the MOTU Pro Audio Control is similar enough. 12:46:50 From David Roth : @Glenn Workman, In the mixing board of the mono audio track, I don’t see the “knob” to do panning. But you are saying it will appear if I use Trim plug-in option? 12:47:15 From Matthew Komaiko : Darn, Venmo crashed 12:47:34 From Glenn Workman : David: What is the output assigned to? It needs to be assigned to a stereo output pair to have the pan knob appear. 12:48:15 From Ray Toler : Loved CueMix. 12:48:26 From David Roth : @Glenn Workman, output is assigned to Reverb in an Aux. 12:48:52 From Glenn Workman : David: Is the Reverb bus a mono send? 12:49:03 From Glenn Workman : If so, make it a stereo send. 12:49:43 From Glenn Workman : Blend - also pretty unique to DP. 12:50:22 From David Roth : @Glenn Workman, that’s a good question, I will have to check it out. I know the ProVerb has the stereo output, but it might be mono since I was working with mono audio to begin. I will check it out, thanks! - David 12:51:36 From Glenn Workman : Input monitor can also be “per channel” on the Mixing Board. Each channel has an input button. 12:51:45 From Eric Witt : Soory, I forgot, what does “print” mean? 12:52:17 From Glenn Workman : Eric: Bounce - print - create mix or file of a combination of soundbites (one track) etc. 12:52:28 From Eric Witt : OK thanks Glenn. 12:53:23 From Shinji Eshima : sorry to leave - got a meeting= thanks 12:55:08 From David Roth : @Glenn Workman, I checked. The mono audio track is output to bus 10. Input bus 10 is to AUX for reverb and it’s output is Main Out L-R. In the mixing board, the mono audio track doesn’t show the pan knob. I don’t want to pan the reverb which is stereo, but the mono audio tracks. Hope I am explaining this right. 12:56:11 From David Roth : @Glenn Workman, or do I need another AUX to make the pan control of the mono tracks stereo? 12:57:14 From Neil McCarroll : nice tip! 12:57:20 From Glenn Workman : David: Change the output bus to a stereo bus (9-10 for example). Change the input to the Aux track to that stereo bus (9-10 for example). All Aux track in DP are stereo (unlike ProTools where they can be mono or stereo). Should work find. 12:57:45 From Glenn Workman : Fine not find. 12:58:44 From David Roth : @Glenn Workman, I changed the output bus from 10 to 9-10 (stereo) and now the pan knob does appear on the mixing board for the mono audio track. Thanks! 12:59:19 From Jacki Barineau : When I’m first recording a vocal through a track for some reason I must turn on Input Monitor in order to hear them with effects even if I am recording them. The next play through / record I can turn input monitor off. What am I missing?! 13:00:25 From Glenn Workman : Additional impulse responses for Pro Verb were discussed in an earlier webinar, and some have been posted to the user folder I created. The doc on how t use them and where to find them is here, along with some other tidbits from webinar attendees and some file goodies from past webinars: https://www.freqsound.com/motuuserfiles/MOTUWebinarExtras.pdf 13:00:49 From Kenneth Sarkey : Mat’s 256 latency is kinda hard to listen to…turn off input mode or audio patch thru off. 13:00:52 From Edward @ L A Music Lab : For Glen, Matt mentioned choosing “direct hardware ply through” in Input monitoring window… Where is that window? 13:01:17 From David Roth : Thanks for the link, Glenn! 13:01:41 From Glenn Workman : Jacki: Arming a track will pass audio through if you are not in play. Auto will mute the inputs if the file is playing. Not sure what you have set at the beginning of the day that might make this different. 13:02:40 From Glenn Workman : Edward: Setup/Configure Audio System/Input Monitoring Mode... 13:03:23 From Jacki Barineau : I’m using an 828ES and have monitoring set to Auto… 13:03:35 From cvtonyd : for a punch in, what mode will allow the singer to hear the vocal before the punch, then hear their punch being recorded? 13:03:49 From Edward @ L A Music Lab : never mind, I found it 13:03:50 From Glenn Workman : cvtonyd: Blend 13:04:03 From cvtonyd : thx Glenn 13:06:37 From Kubilay Uner : Can we kill Matt’s direct dry audio from the 1248? to get rid of phasing? 13:07:17 From Glenn Workman : Kubilay: That is what I just asked him. He has it patched through the 1248 for the recording of the session, but the Input monitor button on so he can demo what he’s doing now. 13:07:18 From Adam Goldman : Kubilay…I think that’s what’s going to the Zoom recording? 13:07:42 From Kubilay Uner : Ah you are correct. Nevermind 13:07:47 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Adam: yes, I believe you are correct 13:08:06 From Russ Pfeifer : llol 13:08:32 From John Boyle : Maybe not a man, but your are THE man, Matt. 13:09:44 From Glenn Workman : Never a rule in audio right:) Since EQ can change the gain of a signal (up or down) then dynamics processing after is the norm. 13:11:01 From Eric Witt : Why would a voice not be stereo? 13:11:15 From Jacki Barineau : I have trouble getting de-essing just right - I end up with muffled sound or lisping lol 13:11:18 From Glenn Workman : Eric: Because you only have one mouth hole. 13:11:30 From Adam Goldman : Glenn: :-D 13:11:34 From Glenn Workman : Now if you talk out your ass at the same time... 13:11:53 From Eric Witt : OK, so if it is in stereo then the voice won’t sound natural? 13:11:56 From Eric Witt : Glenn 13:11:58 From Adam Goldman : (or if you’re Talking Out The Side o Yo Neck!) 13:12:15 From Dan Wool : I wish there were presets with the DP de-esser 13:12:15 From Kubilay Uner : @Eric if you record a mono signal into a stereo track it’s still a mono signal. 13:12:22 From Kubilay Uner : It just sits on two tracks at once. 13:12:30 From Glenn Workman : Eric: It can still exist in a stereo place, like the reverb he was demonstrating, but you don’t record a vocal with 2 mics. 13:12:34 From larryballereau : Can you use the effects if you are doing monitoring through your hardware and not DP with the off mode? 13:12:35 From Eric Witt : OK thanks Glenn and Kublai. 13:12:59 From Glenn Workman : Dan Wool: I thought there were presets for them, no? 13:13:21 From Dan Wool : There weren’t last time I checked 13:13:36 From Kubilay Uner : No harm in having a mono signal on a stereo track but it uses twice the space and makes panning a little less obvious. And it’s just bad practice, bc i.e. another engineer will have to figure out what’s up with the tracks. 13:14:12 From Eric Witt : Understand even better Kubilay. Thanks. 13:14:27 From Björn Lindén : Glenn: 2 mic’s when you record mid/side… can do nice things to the sound… :-) 13:14:34 From jraoul : Eric - you can still pan a mono track left, right, or anywhere in between 13:14:36 From Glenn Workman : larry: Whoever is monitoring direct (like the singer or musician) will not hear the effects unless he ALSO routes that to their phones/monitor. When he was demoing the Pro Verb he did that with an Aux send about 15 minutes ago. 13:14:47 From cvtonyd : some plugins cause this because they don’t have mono iterations, only mono to stereo, which converts the track to stereo 13:15:10 From Dan Wool : Glenn: There’s not. I just checked. Few of the newer DP plugins include presets 13:15:30 From Glenn Workman : Bjorn: Yes. Trying to keep it simple. I’ll do multiple mics to make a choice of which sounded better after the fact as well, but in general… 13:15:31 From larryballereau : got it thanks 13:16:02 From Björn Lindén : yeah.. :-) just being mr. smartypants :-) 13:17:03 From Russ Pfeifer : Love the tangents the most 13:17:55 From Glenn Workman : Bjorn: on a tangent, in the weeds, off the rails, our favorite variations from Matt etc. 13:18:24 From Björn Lindén : :-) 13:18:43 From Steve Sklar : I find that sometimes even the MW EQ, Leveler seem to impart a very subtle “veil” to the sound. Anyone else? Is there something about my system? And did Matt say that recording with EQ doesn’t affect the audio file? 13:18:59 From Dan Wool : Dynamic Equalizer, also comes with no presets. 13:19:53 From Adam Goldman : Steve Sklar: he said his in-line FX are post fader, so recording is dry, FX are removable and not effecting recorded parts 13:20:07 From Glenn Workman : Steve: The plug-ins are not being recorded when recording an audio file. Just hearing it on play-through or playback. 13:20:45 From Steve Sklar : Cool, thanks. 13:20:47 From Victor LeComer : Glenn: Is CueMixDSP still available separately on the site? Or in an audio sys installer? 13:20:47 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Steve: there are ways, however, to print the effects while recording. You can even do both simultaneously. 13:21:05 From Steve Sklar : Please elaborate. 13:21:47 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : You could bus the output of the track to another disk track to print the “effected” version as you are recording the dry version into the original track. 13:21:56 From Glenn Workman : Victor: The interfaces that use it still work with CueMix. My recollection is the MOTU audio installers have check boxes on which interfaces (or interface family) you are installing audio drivers for. 13:22:15 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Or do it with sends. 13:22:30 From Dan Wool : A DP for Post-Production webinar would be great! 13:22:32 From Adam Goldman : proof that voice isn’t that low. :-) 13:22:59 From Frank Macchia : Dumb question: Does VocAlign come with DP? If not, does it work on Windows? 13:23:04 From Victor LeComer : Thx, Glenn. I’ll look. Still using my HD192 as multitrack machines. 13:23:13 From Björn Lindén : Frank: no 13:23:17 From Glenn Workman : Victor: MOTU Audio Installer - not the MOTU Pro Audio Installer which is for the AVB and some newer interfaces. 13:23:18 From Neil McCarroll : Schwartzenegger isn’t even good at Schwartzenegger! 13:23:26 From kennethpage : Gotta go do my gig now. I always save the chats. Hopefully I can get this one and another that I missed from someone who has saved them. I’ll get this Webinar when its posted. 13:23:28 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Dan: it’s on the newly posted schedule for June 16-30 13:23:53 From Dan Wool : Jim: Yay! Thanks! 13:24:01 From Frank Macchia : Thanks Bjorn- bummer it doesn't work in Windows 13:24:03 From Rich Switzer : they look softer? 13:24:04 From Steve Sklar : Thanks. 13:24:06 From Glenn Workman : Victor: On this download page: https://motu.com/download 13:24:31 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Frank: VocAlign is a 3rd-party product from Synchro Arts. 13:24:33 From Adam Goldman : would have worked well if using the Lead Voice as Guide? 13:24:50 From jraoul : Switzer - the original bites had their volumes up +4 db. The VocAligned bites are back to 0 13:25:03 From Glenn Workman : If anyone wants to save the chat transcript, its in the 3 dot bubble in the Chat text area. It will include everything from when you logged on till you hit save. 13:25:05 From Rich Switzer : oh…cool 13:25:10 From Frank Macchia : Jim- if it doesn't work on Windows is there a similar program? 13:25:24 From Russ Pfeifer : wow 13:25:41 From jraoul : Switzer - so then you select all VA’d bites and change bite gain 13:26:03 From Mark Kelso : I am wondering if MOTU recently updated their Vocalign capabilities because in 10.1 I had to return Vocalign Project because I could not get it to work and they said that the Vocalign Pro was not compatible with DP anymore 13:26:08 From Kubilay Uner : So do I have VocAlign? I have the menu options... 13:26:21 From jraoul : Kubilay - not unless you bought it 13:26:38 From Kubilay Uner : Ah OK, so it’s a built-in communication only. 13:26:45 From Björn Lindén : Frank: se this: https://www.synchroarts.com/products/vocalign-pro/support 13:26:48 From Mark Kelso : The folks I talked to at Synchro Arts indicated that MOTU had gone a different direction after DP10 13:26:52 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Frank: from their web site: Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Vista or XP 13:26:58 From Glenn Workman : Kubilay: The menu option is in DP - but is only active IF you own and have the program installed. They do have a demo version that’s worth trying. 13:27:15 From Mark Kelso : I also tried Revoice Pro 13:27:24 From Rich Switzer : Melodyne 5 is out….very nice 13:27:32 From Neil McCarroll : can’t save Chat on Zoom in iPad 13:27:46 From Glenn Workman : Neil: Boo! 13:27:48 From Frank Macchia : But it says it's not compatible with DP, on that link 13:28:14 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Matt is using VocAlign Project. Pro isn’t compatible. 13:28:16 From Kubilay Uner : Yeah, pretty explicit on that - no VocAlign for DP on either Mac or Windows. 13:29:05 From Mark Kelso : I didn’t like that I had to do one track at a time and with time stretching etc in DP, I found DP faster 13:29:27 From Frank Macchia : Jim- so there's a difference with VocAlign Project? 13:30:03 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Project lets you do one track at a time. Pro let’s you do multiple tracks at once. 13:30:18 From Frank Macchia : ah thanks Jim 13:30:29 From Kenneth Sarkey : Is VocAlign using/referencing DP’s beat analysis, or just doing its own thing? 13:30:41 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Kenneth: it’s own thing. 13:30:45 From Mark Kelso : Any chance for compatibility in the future? I was disappointed to return it but it just wasn’t worth it to do one at a tie 13:30:47 From Mark Kelso : time 13:31:09 From Mark Kelso : for Vocalign PRo 13:31:16 From Mark Kelso : And what about Revoice Pro? 13:31:20 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Mark: yes we will work on this with the Synchro Arts guys. There is always hope… 13:31:29 From Mark Kelso : Great, Jim. Thanks! 13:31:34 From iPhone : the cuts have to be exact on each track 13:31:53 From Steve Sklar : This is pretty cool for current pop taste, but I’m glad Laura Nyro didn’t’t use it. 13:31:54 From Ray Toler : Jim, if you can discuss, is supporting Melodyne’s ARA on the roadmap? 13:32:14 From iPhone : merge each track and cut at the same places 13:32:28 From Neil McCarroll : Steve- what a talent! 13:32:31 From Mark Kelso : I still vote for DPs ZTX 13:32:45 From Mark Kelso : iPhone: Thanks for that tip 13:33:07 From paul : what is the purpose for the lower quality settings in ZTX? I.e. why wouldn’t you always want to use the “best” setting in a project? 13:33:22 From Glenn Workman : paul: just speed of operation 13:33:30 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Paul: CPU bandwidth mostly. 13:33:41 From Eric Witt : Am not sure about what he said. So ZTX is good for vocals but not pianos or symphonies? 13:34:27 From Ken Thies : Eric, ZTX is good for a wide vaiety of things. VocAlign is more geared toward monophonic sources. 13:34:30 From Glenn Workman : Eric: Generally Pure DSP for monophonic sources (vocal, flute, sax), ZTX for polyphonic music. 13:34:34 From Björn Lindén : Eric: try with different kinds. see what is good for your own ears 13:34:50 From Eric Witt : Oh, got it. Thanks Ken. 13:35:06 From Dan Wool : Did I miss the webinar that discusses the various ZTX settings, and when to use which? 13:35:08 From paul : but faster operation/lower CPU means lower quality audio, yes? Don’t you want toe processed audio to be the best quality all the time, or am I still missing something here? 13:35:23 From Ken Thies : As Glenn and Björn said, try the various models to see what works for any specific case. 13:36:27 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Dan: May 7th webinar covered this 13:36:58 From Glenn Workman : paul: you would for final output, but when working with lots of tracks and making changes CPU load can slow you down. I’m not sure if final Bounce outputs use those settings for to for best on Bouncing. 13:37:33 From Adam Goldman : Darrell Smith: since you asked the other day…..where’s the best place to play your (banjo, accordion, bagpipes, etc….insert least favorite instrument name)….? 13:37:34 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Guys: there is a little bit of “black magic” when it comes to the ZTX settings. If the highest possible quality is really important to you, you REALLY NEED TO EXPERIMENT with the various settings on specific material. 13:37:47 From Dan Wool : Jim: Cool…so basically everything I want in a webinar has been done or will be done! 13:37:50 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Sometimes, the “low quality” settings actually sound better on certain material. 13:38:06 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Dan: haha, yes 13:38:22 From Steve Sklar : If there’s time today, could Matt demonstrate how to use external audio with MX4? I’ve been trying to get it from the plugin manual, but no luck. He touched on it a few weeks ago. 13:39:40 From Glenn Workman : To ask Matt a question: open the Participants panel and click Raise Hand. Matt will send a request to unmute you mic so you can ask a question. When you’re question is answered then Lower Hand. 13:40:15 From Darrell Smith : Adam that wasn’t me….? 13:40:21 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : The “offline” settings in the “Pitch and Stretch” preferences apply to Bounce to Disk, so you can work with the CPU efficient settings but then use the high quality settings for BTD. 13:40:38 From Adam Goldman : wasn’t you who said…we need a joke a few days ago? 13:40:41 From Dan Wool : Jim: Matt announced that Steve Steele would be a guest just moments after I suggested it in the chat. Spooky! 13:40:49 From Glenn Workman : Jim: Thanks I couldn’t remember where that was or if it was automatic. 13:40:50 From Adam Goldman : he was talking OMF & AAF at the time 13:40:54 From Eric Witt : I was wanting to participate in Performer Lite too since I am still somewhat of a beginner. How do I do this? 13:41:38 From Glenn Workman : Eric: Mondays same time. Login is the same, go to the page where you get these login IDs 15 minutes before the webinar. 13:41:38 From Darrell Smith : Oh, yeah you had an off color joke about OMF 13:41:59 From paul : Glenn: I guess it just seems counterintuitive to me to want use a low quality setting for anything. But I suppose it is not a question of degrading the audio in any way but rather does the stretched audio sound good enough (without glitches 13:42:01 From Adam Goldman : well…I kept it to myself, since you were wise enough to make that the better plan 13:42:19 From paul : RE: ZTX 13:42:20 From Adam Goldman : but figured you wanted a joke :-) 13:42:21 From Joel Friedman : Glenn: missed if you addressed the chats from previous webinars saved anywhere? I haven’t saved any so far. Thx. 13:42:42 From Adam Goldman : (regardless, answer is “bottom of the sea.”) 13:42:56 From Darrell Smith : Adam: wise choice I hope. 13:43:05 From Eric Witt : OK thanks Glenn. 13:43:11 From Jacki Barineau : I’d love to see a webinar or session of webinar that goes over in more detail how to use the audio interface setup using the web browser - I understand just the very basics but with the routing, etc., I get lost! 13:43:12 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Paul: again, sometimes the “low quality” settings actually sound better, depending on the material. 13:43:30 From paul : got it. thx! 13:43:31 From Joel Friedman : +1 Jacki!! 13:43:34 From Glenn Workman : Paul: Some people love having degraded sound, or there wouldn’t be distorted guitars :) Jim posted that you have different settings for “working” and bounce. Some settings just sound better for different material and the best solution is try, and try. 13:44:01 From Jacki Barineau : Joel :) 13:44:34 From Glenn Workman : Joel: I have save almost all the chats for every webinar. I can email to anyone who wants them. Specify the day or days and let me know. glenn@freqsound.com 13:44:41 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Jacki, check out the videos at motu.com/proaduio. 13:44:52 From Jacki Barineau : Ok, thanks, Jim! 13:44:56 From Jim Cooper (MOTU) : Crap, sorry… motu.com/proaudio 13:44:59 From Rich Switzer : ARA 13:45:02 From Jacki Barineau : lol 13:45:13 From Paul Colombo : Glenn, with Matt’s vocal recording with EQ, Leveler, De-esser, reverb - did he say that that’s not printed, just used for the vocalist to hear while recording? How is that set up again? 13:46:21 From Eric Witt : Glenn did a webinar? When? 13:46:29 From Joel Friedman : OK, gotta go. Thank you everyone! 13:46:35 From Björn Lindén : last week ? 13:47:05 From Eric Witt : I’ve been to almost every webinar and don’t remember Glenn running one. 13:47:09 From Eric Witt : ? 13:47:50 From Björn Lindén : Eric, it was not a whole webinar… maybe 2/3:rds or so… 13:47:53 From larryballereau : Where is the best place to get VocAlign? 13:48:01 From Glenn Workman : Jacki: That was something I was going to do as part of an after-party today. My schedule has changed and I’ve got to leave in about 15 minutes. If folks want to do it tomorrow with me at 12:30 post me an email with After Party in the glenn@freqsound.com. 13:48:09 From Eric Witt : Bjorn - you say it was last week? 13:48:24 From Dan Wool : Glenn’s webinar was useful, but slightly fraught 13:48:32 From Mark Kelso : Larry: Vocalign Project from SyncroArts runs specials from time to time 13:48:41 From Neil McCarroll : just a section of the webinar on Wed 3rd June 13:48:42 From Jacki Barineau : Oh wow - thanks, Glenn!! I have a birthday party to attend tomorrow but would love to see that - will you be recording it? 13:48:49 From Carol Laula : Teatime for me - thanks for this session. Be safe everyone x 13:49:00 From paul : off topic: does anyone know if it is possible to rename unassigned controllers? For example, CC#80 (general button); could I rename this to “reverb on/off” that would save with a project so that I would not have to figure out the assignment in the future and also could read it right away in the view filter in MIDI editing? 13:49:34 From Russ Pfeifer : Roberto - the effects were post fader 13:49:56 From Glenn Workman : Jacki: Don’t have anyone attending yet. If not then, we can always do one after any normal MOTU webinar (usually a good time for me). MOTU may have plans to do a “real” one in the future, but I can help folks with the routing since I’ve banged my own head against it for about 2 years now. 13:50:16 From Jacki Barineau : Lol - I know what you mean! 13:51:21 From Glenn Workman : paul: Preferences/Editing/Continuous Data - you can select your favorite CCs and name them as well. 13:53:03 From paul : I thought I looked there, but I must have missed it. Will revisit this later today if that is the case. 13:53:12 From paul : thx Glenn 13:53:53 From Glenn Workman : paul: It lets you name/use your favorite 7 CCs. 13:54:15 From Keith Scripps : How do I indicate that I want to ask a question? 13:54:22 From paul : ah, ok. So it is limited to those 7 13:54:34 From Mark Kelso : Keith: raise hand from participant window 13:54:50 From Glenn Workman : paul: For naming I think that is correct. 13:55:06 From paul : not unlimited. I think I remember Matt describing this at one point in the past 13:55:45 From paul : that is probably why I thought it was not an option to rename any/all controllers 13:57:42 From Neil McCarroll : Wish you could get slider for the sends rather than than the tiny dial - is there a way? 13:58:30 From Jacki Barineau : Neil - me too!! 13:58:52 From Glenn Workman : Have to leave early today. Anyone wants to attend the after-party tomorrow email me for a 12:30Eastern quick Zoom. Email me with After Party in the subject to glenn@freqsound.com. Have a great weekend everyone.
