The long and the short of it is that I spent an evening trawling for and downloading new versions of plug-ins to try and make sure I didn't have any problems.įor example, the page quotes versions of Eventide plug-ins that aren't available even from Eventide's own site. Why did I go to all this trouble? Because Digidesign say that even one incompatible plug-in will make your lovely new system unstable. I just wish there was an easier way of knowing that you have the latest versions of the plug-ins. One other point is that the Digidesign EQ II or Dynamics II plug-ins are now installed by default into the Plug-ins (unused) folder, which you will find next to your Plug-ins folder. If you need them to open an older Session, simply drag them back into your Plug-ins folder, with Pro Tools not running, and when you next run Pro Tools they will be back. Version 7.3 has brought a raft of improvements to both HD and LE versions, and also adds a number of previously HD-only options introduced with 7.2 to 7.3 LE. Let's take a tour, starting with the features that are new in both HD and LE.Īt last Pro Tools has what so many other software packages have: an Open Recent menu option. This menu stores the 10 most recently opened sessions and you don't even need to close the existing Session to use it, though you still can't have more than one Session open at a time, so Pro Tools will close the current Session before opening the next one. * Changing Mixer Configurations During Playback Finally, there is a keyboard shortcut to open the most recently used Session: Command+Shift+O (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+O (Windows). Window Configurations can be recalled from the Window menu (above) or the floating palette (below). It's so nice not to have to stop playback to add an insert or create a new track! You can add, remove, duplicate, make inactive, make active, re-order, copy and move the following: The dialogue box (bottom) allows you to specify which windows are stored in a Configuration.For many people, the biggest improvement in Pro Tools 7.3 is that you can now make a much wider range of changes to the mix configuration without stopping playback. This is a long-awaited feature in Pro Tools, especially for Logic users, who have had 'screen sets' for a long time.
