Does anyone know of a site that lists all (or at least many) of the Pro Tools shortcuts and what they do?
 
For those of you who didn't get a manual w/their cracked software, bychance...?

The manual that comes with Pro tools LE is very basic, kind of a getting started manual. Btw, you can only run Pro Tools (LE) with the Digidesign hardware, so you aren't shit with a cracked software. sodon't accuse our pro tools friend too soon :).

Why, Brett!

I wasn't making any accusations!

It's just when I see anything that mentions overpriced, overhyped 'protools' I get green with envy!

Maybe the top end stuff is pricey, but the LE configurations MBox, Digi 001 and Digi 002 are remarkably affordable and very powerful, especially when run on one of the newer, faster computers.

Didnt know it was really possible to have crak of Ptools, as you NEED the hardware to run the software.

Remarkably affordable? Very powerful?

I have a 'newer, faster' computer and I don't need 'ProTools' to get professional results.

I use a modestly priced software package called Tracktion which gives me everthing I need in an audio and midi sequencer, including access to hundreds of free or low cost VST fx and VSTi's which 'ProTools' is too 'remarkably affordable' to give me access to.

Tracktion is 'ProTools' for the great unwashed masses and it only cost me $80.
 
i agree with you scientist about not needing protools.
over the next year i will be all native amd 64 solution with probably
using RME sound solution.
the problem is a lot of the unwashed masses think spending a fortune is
what is going to catapult them to fame.
there are already so many pro tools studios around having problems just covering expenses. in my area studio time about 20 bucks an hour or less.

Sorry,

I don't know how this relates to what we're talking about. Could you please clarify?

Thanks,

Glad you don't. But to which Pro Tools do you refer. AGAIN, I was referring to LE systems. They are a lot more affordable than their TDM systems. I don't think it's appropriate to damn an entire line of products when they cover such a wide range of cost and capability.

My 001 and 002 allow me to make a living. They are very affordable and have paid for themselves man times over.... in the last 6 months alone.

If you're only charging $20/hr for studio because that's what the market will bear, you need to try something else. What area are you in and what studios are you referring to?

In my experience, the recording platform and gear are only part of the equation. Equally important is what the operator brings to the table.

PS: I find a lot of people who say harsh things about ProTools have never used it, or haven't taken the time to learn what it can do. Like one of the support people I spoke to years back said, "Pro Tools, as a software, is a foot wide and a mile deep."
 
ty,when i was talking about 20 bucks an hour i was talking about the young setting up studios in my area.
they lament to me they spent all this money or family members helped them for little return.

the reason why i get concerned is ive worked for hi tech companies and seen it from every product and marketing angle ty.
1.ive seen studios spend quarter of a million bucks on digital multitracks
that they will never get the investment back on years ago.
thankfully - i didnt.
2.ive seen expensive synths where the manufacturers change a few chips
then expect the poor musician to pony up again a few thousand bucks.
i DID once get caught on this roundabout - i swore never again.

by contrast the multitrack solution that scientist loves and the one i love
are both what i call high value products. both under 100 bucks.
in summary ....the fiscal downsides are minimal. and both will let you
do great songs. thats all scientist and i are saying.
frankly i'm hoping that products like ardour under linux will come to the fore over the next few years.

i agree with you Ty :cool:
 
Off course I agree with my friend Bennychico and Ty, and again I have the 'oh, not again' feeling. Do you see us going in each Nuendo, Sonar or Cubase thread bashing the software?

Pro Tools LE is great value for money, and I think Pro Tools is great, great software. End of story. You don't have to agree with me, but the ones who don't like Pro Tools (most of the time ppl who haven't worked with it or only worked with it for a short while!) shouldn't hijack every thread about a Pro Tools question.
