Couple of “would be nices…” and I think would be a great help to the workflow.
Ability to “round-trip” the VT WAV file to an external editor. If the recording was good, but maybe you want to edit a cough/burp etc, would be nice to send to say Audition/Audcaity etc, edit, save then tweak back in the Mix Editor. This is a feature I use a lot in Video Editing (called round tripping) and is a great time saver.
When I have the VT windows open, I lose the ability to mouse click the cartwall so I can’t fire off carts on a VT link. (I do use an Xkeys pad so I can start the carts that way), however I have found I’m faster VT’ing with the mouse. I understand this is a dialog modal issue, but even with touchscreen users, the cartwall is blocked when in VT.
yes, I have a Delta 1010LT and so the audio mixer main o/p feeds input 1 and the sub group feeds input 2 and that is what I connect to the VT. Works rather well.
A typically cunning Richard solution. I rather like his idea; and it does feel ‘natural’ to be able to fire carts during a VT recording.
True, an Xkeys pad would work; but something cheap’n’cheerful I use here is a set of Buzz! controllers. They give you 20 buttons at very low cost, and work flawlessly with mAirList. The only annoyance is making a cradle of some sort to keep the little $%"$!* things from moving around, falling over, etc. Once you’ve done that (made mine from a breakfast cereal packet and some white gaffer tape LOL!), they’re really nice to use. Especially the Big Round Red buttons! :
