Re: New Track Default?

Setup/Automation Setup...
Then, in "Track Automation Configutation" select a MIDI track or an audio track and enable the automation recording mode that you want.
Below, you can save it as "default for MIDI track" or "default for audio tracks".

Re: Metering. Any Suggestions?

Actually if you're talking about the meters I think you're talking about, Roger Nichols did not design them. They were by another company (can't remember the name now) that Roger Nichols acquired and rebranded it as RND (Roger Nichols Digital). I have both the pre and post RND versions. I still use...

Re: Final Cut Pro X released today! 6/21/11

A number of the concerns involve the lack of a full suite of audio tools. I don't know that's a problem. I would think the pro has Logic, ProTools or DP, gets the audio in semi-finished form then finishes it in FCP-X. Kind of like the way we do it now - and did back in the day when our mixes would ...

Re: Boot from External hard drive clone Re-register programs

Some softwares rely on HD ID, others on motherboard ID. Well, that's true. Last month the G5 of an audio facility where I work suddenly died. Apparently a problem in the logic board. Fortunately there was a G5 available to use as replacement. So we took the old G5's drive and we put it in the new G...

If you are using Perian, try deactivating it.

Re: Music and Piracy

I agree with both of you, Future Legend and MIDI Life Crisis. Once, a friend of mine lended me a DVD of a tribute to George Harrison (Concert for George). I don't like Beatles very much, so I never would bought it, but after seeing it, I was so impressed that I said: "I must have it". So I...

Re: Audio file timing marks

Hi Obmit,
Go to Preferences/Editing/Editing Window. There you will find "Edit Window guides". Unchek what you don't want to display. And don't forget to read the manual for further information.

Re: Injury to Insult? SOS gaffs DP. New monthly REAPER colum

Stickwolf I agree with all your words. FM, thinking about "on your honour" is as naive as thinking about "copy-protection". Do you think that piracy can be stopped with "copy-protection", I don't think so. OTOH, why do you paid to get DP? For fear of punishment? Or beca...

Re: Next and previous frame

Hi Simsy, AFAIK the only way to go to next/previous frame is in the movie window using the left/right arrows, and with Option-Left/Right arrows you go to the Beginning/End of the movie. But these shorcuts doesn't work when the movie window is used as a floating window. I have the left/right arrows a...

Re: Masterworks Collection arrives . . .

What?! I can't BELIEVE they didn't include the MasterWorks Gate and Limiter in the offered collection! ;-) MB Does anybody use the MW Limiter any more anyway? It's over 15 or more years old and there are probably much better options today. I always need limiters in my jobs. Most cases, I use Waves ...
