    Pro Tools Normalize Plugin for True Peak Setting?

    Hello, Home Recording Folks... I've got a really complex, 12-minute soundtrack project with a lot of tracks, all needing to be adjusted for headroom. Though not clipping, they were all recorded on the hot side and need to be tamed for mastering later. My research shows clip gain adjustment to...

    Opinions on Pre EQ Before Recording

    I'm really struggling with the big WOOF in my acoustic recordings, having to EQ the crap out of my raw track to get it reasonably listenable (see attached for my neck mic EQ setting). I'm using an X/Y pair of Neumann KM-184s, having to position them nearly two feet away to cut back on the bass...

    A "Best Practice" Question on Vocal Recording

    Greetings, all... For a while now I've recorded my vocals in a separate group of tracks in the project set up strictly for recording, meaning there is minimal treatment going on, my philosophy being that in order to get the best performance out of myself, I should be hearing my voice as...

    Monitor Calibration Question

    I’m struggling with monitor calibration and need some direction. I’m using KRK Rokit-8 monitors that have a HF Adjust and LF Adjust on the back. Those adjustments have little effect on this issue I’m posting. I have a pink-noise track in Pro-Tools that gives an EQ reading of a normal, steady...

    Weird Doubling in Vocal Record Monitoring

    Yesterday I had to upgrade my Mac to the latest version of Catalina and lost an entire day resolving the havoc that ensued (64-bit complications, etc). I was finally able today to get back on a session in Pro Tools but am now getting a doubling effect in my headphones on my vocal track, though...

    Abnormal MIDI Instrument Track Latency

    I’ve been having problems with a MIDI drum track for several days now. While recording, low latency monitoring and delay compensation are both off. Buffer size is 512 and I’m running no plugins. I’m using Superior Drummer with all drum instruments/mics routed to separate tracks in PT, a standard...

    Pro Tools won't Playback through StudioLive III 24R

    I've just installed a PreSonus StudioLive-III 24R rack mixer, replacing my StudioLive 16.0.2 console, which I've outgrown. I like the idea of the rack config because I don't mix live, only needing a 24-input interface to use with Pro Tools. Pro Tools had no problem working with the 16.0.2...

    Pro Tools Scattering My Audio Files to Different Folders

    I've been trying to find a solution to this maddening thing Pro Tools is doing, and would like to hear what this forum has to offer. Pro Tools has been randomly selecting audio clip files in my projects to store in a folder outside the project folder, on my root directory, a folder it creates...

    Yamaha Midi Controller Piano Sound Coming Through Superior Drummer Track

    I'm using a Yamaha CP40 as my Midi controller for a drum instrument track using the Superior Drummer plugin. I've got the Yamaha keyboard triggering the kit instruments, working effectively in that regard as it should, but am also getting the piano note of the key triggering the kit component...

    Pro Tools Low-Latency Monitoring Issue

    I left Logic Pro for Pro Tools thinking I was making a move up to a more professional DAW. After two weeks of intensive learning and migrating a huge Logic project into PT, I was finally ready today to get back to work and record. I armed my vocal track, put my headphones on, engaged Pro...
