Some problems plz?

[Ramy Moustafa]

Hello all:

While taking a small mastering course, i am facing some problems related to SOme plugins and VOice over, so I will write them here, and hope you can help me fixing what am facing.

1- how can we Read inside the VU Meeter? is there an accessible VU meeter plugin?

2- moving between Open plugins without opening 1 by 1 each time, I tried TO press on Target plugin but with no help.

3- how can i write Volume Automation  by section using Keyboard not COntrol surface? so i need to add 1 Db volume from bar 10 to bar 20, can i do this using Just my keyboard or i should use COntrol surface etc?

4- When i need to load presets from the Ozone9, Pro tools always crash, but when voice over is off, it works, is there a solution?

5- what is a good EQ that can do mid side technique? I tried the Ozone 9 EQ, and it crashes with VOice over.

VoiceOver only sees one value for metering. It cannot read VU specifically.

2- moving between Open plugins without opening 1 by 1 each time, I tried TO press on Target plugin but with no help.

By default, only one plug-in window is open at a time. I wouldn't recommend using more than one plug-in window because you can't see more than one window at a time and, since you would need to bring up the window Chooser and make sure the window is the target, simply selecting from the track selector in one window is more straight-forward.

3- how can i write Volume Automation  by section using Keyboard not COntrol surface? so i need to add 1 Db volume from bar 10 to bar 20, can i do this using Just my keyboard or i should use COntrol surface etc?

This is a deceptively complex question because it depends on a number of factors. To offer an answer that'll work under all circumstances, Make your selection and enter Auto Latch Trim mode and change the volume fader to +1 dB. Engage the transport and either let it play through the selection or use the Write To Selection button in the Automation window if it's a long section that you don't want to play all the way through.

4- When i need to load presets from the Ozone9, Pro tools always crash, but when voice over is off, it works, is there a solution?

See if others can recreate the issue and, if so, open a support ticket with Izotope.

5- what is a good EQ that can do mid side technique? I tried the Ozone 9 EQ, and it crashes with VOice over.

Hello Mr. Slau:

COncerning the Target plugin:

I do not want to see multible plugins opened at the same window or something, all i need is an easy method for switching between them,so, if i have a compressor opened, and i need to switch between it and an Eq for instance, each time i should hit command ` to move between windows and go and open the other one, etc, so is there an easy way for switching?

COncerning Automation:

Thanks so much for your explnation, however, If you do not mind, i need more explnation  or an audio demo please, because  can not do all you told me.

Thanks so much for your help

Hello Ramy!

Regarding switching plug-ins...
In the plug-in window you'll find pop-up menues for changing insert slots and tracks.
That should be fast enough.

Best! / Martin

Hi Ramy,

Just to underline what Martin said, within the plug-in window, aside from the track selector, there's an insert selector which displays the Letter name of the insert. If you click on that, you'll get a pop-up menu and you can access all inserts from there. If there's a plug-in instantiated, the insert letter will be followed by the name of the plug-in on that insert.

Regarding the automation, I covered exactly this material in the most recent chapter of the PT Guide for Screen Reader Users. Hope that helps,\

Slau

Hello Ramy!

Yes, it would.
In the same plug-in window you'll also find a pop-up menu to change the track to use.
Just explore that plug-in window by VoiceOver.

Hi Martin,
I simply pointed out that Plug-in Alliance has a number of options and reading the manual is key to be able to make sense of things.

Hi Ramy,

Again as Martin points out, use the trak selector and then the insert selector.

Hi Ramy,
If you really want to be able to keep discrete Plug-in windows open to be able to switch between them more easily, open a plug-in and click on the target button. Then open the Mix window and open the other plug-in you wish to switch to. Now you'll have 2 plug-in windows open at the same time. If you followed my pre-flight checklist and set the Control+F6 shortcut in Keyboard preference pane, you can flip between the 2 plug-in windows with Control+F6.
HTH,
Slau
