Hi folks,
This seemed like the right place to post this since it's software related. I started a blog entitled, "Pro Tools for VO" which you can access at http://www.pt4vo.com
Enough of us are using it for not just heavy lifting production but also everyday stuff. (I also use Twisted Wave quite a bit.) PT gets bashed a lot, and sometimes deservedly so, but I wanted to create a place for VO folks to get helpful info when it comes to Pro Tools.
There's also a Google+ group of the same name in case you are interested in that.
I hope the Pro Tools users on the board find it helpful!
Anthony |

Apple's Logic is a great remedy for all the cons of using ProTools.. it's pretty much a no brainer.. at $199
here's an interesting tutorial on punch and roll in Logic..

Nice to see this blog. As a fellow sucker who is locked into using Pro Tools, I heartily approve. Maybe because misery loves company.
But I'm compelled to ask, Anthony... why no love for Pro Tools Express? I'm hard pressed to think of any likely situation for a v.o. to need all the extra firepower (or horsepower? Horse hockey!) of the full version, and the price difference is pretty steep! |

I don't have PT Express. Also, the studios I work with that use PT don't use Express. I thought it best to stick with the version that scales from studio to studio. But if someone wanted to write an article about PTE, I'd be happy to post it. |

Don't mind me. I just got my contrarian hackles up when I read this in your blog:
Quote: | I’m not going to include Pro Tools SE or Express here because I think those are lightweight versions that really don’t compare favorably to a normal version of Pro Tools that you would find in a professional studio |
I'm skeptical. (and did I mention contrarian?) As long as we are talking about voice overs and not multitrack musical recordings, what part of Express compares unfavourably?
My nitpickiness aside, I am mighty happy to see a v.o.-specific blog on Pro Tools. I think it's a great thing, Anthony! |
