I guess tape is truly dead. My old Otari had input monitor settings per track! You could punch in/out band members (remember those?) one instrument at a time on the fly. Of course, you had to be careful not to screw it up! Input monitoring is something those old ADAT folks can tell you about too, if any are still alive. -- Barry Young Young Creative > From: Paul Najar <pnajar@...> > Reply-To: logic-tdm@yahoogroups.com > Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2002 14:52:31 +1100 > To: logic-tdm@yahoogroups.com > Subject: Re: [L-TDM] LAM: recording audio and monitoring > > Malcolm Payne on 25/2/02 1:23 PM, Malcolm Payne at mpmusicny@... > wrote: > >>> >>> When setting input levels simply make sure you actually punch into record. >>> Then you will hear the audio and the meters will move.

Thanks for all the responses. There has to be a setting that takes care of this so that Auto input monitoring does not have to be toggled. Do you guys use logic as the front end or do you sequence in logic and do all audio in PT and not have to worry about this? I do Rap music and have to edit out explicit words is in song. I found that doing this in PT was actually more work that in logic, PLEASE correct me if I am not doing something right but here is how it works in Logic for me and PT: Logic: Open wave, find word by clicking up top without having to select a "tool" click on the area, hit reverse and done! PT: Wave form is already there, choose scrubber find word, loose my place while going up to get selector tool, highlight an area by guessing where I was, go back and get scrubber to verify, go back and get selector and mark area. Choose capture region(in logic you just hit reverse and keep moving and you are offered the choice to back up) and then hit reverse. Now you have to go the audio are on the right and pull this audio back into the waveform area (hoping that you put it exactly where it goes) and there you are! PLEASE tell me what I am doing or not doing to make this easier. I am new to PT (5.1.3 is the version I have) and bought it thinking that I was supposed to be so great. I am sure that it is and that I am just missing something that you guy already know to make this quicker. Please help me as I did not see anything in my 4.2 Mix Plus manual that touched on this(original system was 4.2 with upgrade to 5.1.3) Also, how do you get the allocator program. I did not find it on my 5.1 or 5.1.3 CD? Thanks Bobby

Thanks for all the responses. Peter yours was the first that I saw, so your message did get through and I surely appreciate it. However, there has to be a setting that takes care of this so that Auto input monitoring does not have to be toggled as this does not have to be done in native.

Bobby, I don´t think I understand what you mean (can you explain how the monitoring works with ASIO? Don´t you hear the track vs. the input when playing there?). IMO Auto Input Monitoring works as it should, and to me it´s no hassle to toggle it when I need to. BTW: What do you mean with "reverse"? Delete?

I think I remember Cubase 4 having a "tape monitor" mode, and you could click on/off each channel. I looked around for that in Logic when I first got my TDM system up and running. I've now settled for turning Auto Input Monitoring off, and record-enabling each channel I need to hear. By the way, that's a real drag when you want to enable many channels. Is there a shortcut? It'd be REAL handy if channels saved their rec states in Autoload. Glenn _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

This isn't a plugin, it's a stand-alone application that tells you how much DSP horsepower is being used up on the TDM cards. It doesn't need to be installed anywhere particular. The Allocator has been discontinued by Digidesign. Instead, it is built inside PT software since PT5. Luckily, that old stand-alone application still works with Logic and DAE 5.x. It probably will NOT work with the new PT HD hardware, but what the hell do I know? f-erenc szabo, smarty pants Z+E+R+O+B+E+A+T "NOW POWERED BY THE MIRACLE OF THE TRANSISTOR!"

Dear all, I have recently installed the ESB using LAP 4.7.2 and Mixplus hardware but now im stuck !!! The TDM environment side was setup for me when I got the gear but now Im really in trouble!! 1) How do you setup native tracks , say 24. 2) And virtual instruments ?? 3) Also I only appear to have 4 aux channels, is that right ?? I know I have to setup some stuff in the environment but I would greatly appreciate some help, or if someone could direct me to a website for this info. Many thanks in advance. HokisUK

Copy or create a bunch of new objects (faders), and change the device for those objects to DTDM in the parameter box to the left.

In your native mixer you will have eight possible outputs for each object.

I've just installed esb tdm; installation was succesfull, but the item esb is visable (grey) but unselectable in my plug-inlist. DTDM and DAE are selected in my hardware setup. I can select DTDM in an audio object, but when I change a DAE audio object into a DTDM object, nothing happens (no sound, no audio is coming in...) When I put off DAE and DTDM and I switch on I/O I can select VST plug-ins and I can hear a sound. Does anybody knows what I have to do? I have re-installed esb tdm, without succes. There is also another problem: when I put on DTDM, my audio volumesettings aren't correct anymore; I hear the audio volumechanges on other places than I've drawned them. Without DTDM everything works fine. My configuration: LAP 4.8.1, protools cube en g4/733 os 9.2 - 384 mb, 2x 18 giga externe harddisks, unitor 8 en amt 8 Thanks for helping me! Wim Claes

This doesn't work. You need to put it on an aux (or a bus). Regards Malcolm
