    You are the only Pro Tools tutor that's worth a damn on TH-cam.
    Even for procedures that I already know how to do, you teach something new. Thank you!

    I love your enthusiasm Wayne! Thank you. Learning this in 2024 after 16 years of Protools production! Say what no one ever wanted the ptx files just the finished mp3 or wav!

    Not only do I like how you break things down step-by-step in your videos, the actual way you present them is engaging and down-to-earth. I can tell you're excellent in teaching the content to your students. I subscribed since I just downloaded Pro Tools Artist on my new laptop, and I have a lot of family and friends I can now send files to. Good lookin' out, Double Dub (for the two "W"s)!

    Sup Wavy, there are many videos on TH-cam that talk about this procedure and what you speak of in your page. But my thing is a trust issue with other videos, I respect them all and they do a great job, BUT!!!! you're a household name in my searches and if I need guidance, I trust in your expertise because of the way you explain it, I'M truly thankful for you and your knowledge. Thank you for your videos, be safe, and many blessings to you and yours....

    Man! I was soloing the audio file, bouncing the tracks down separately, Doing a whole Bunch of extra stuff that took hours....This really saved my life!! LOL I purchase the template too, great starting point if your like me and didn't know wtf is going on and all over the place. Thanks for taking the time and sharing your knowledge.

    Yo! Wavy Wayne, you just saved my life with this video! I had created/Record a new session with this up and coming artist, and for some reason, when I went back into the session the next day. We’ve been there with Pro!Tools when that error msg pops up about “Can’t find files”. Long story short, this video showed me how to clean up my clips list, and that resolved the issue. THANKS!

    This is very helpful and well-explained! Just had one of those "moments" when my first collaborative mix job went sideways with trillions of unused files inadvertently copied and sent. Never again! I'd also been through the other extreme of no audio being transferred. Thank you!

      @@waynewav have you done this one yet? I ended up here because I was looking for the importing and was hoping this could help me "retrace back" or what have you since i wasn't finding much on it. (Specifically was wondering..why are the vocal tracks so low for me (beat track fine) on stems for a song i recorded elsewhere?)

    • @LadyLove747

  • @fastlearner9296
    @fastlearner9296 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Wayne, This video is very insightful with the exception of the fact that you make absolutely NO mention of what to do with the MIDI files. This whole process you explained excludes the MIDI files and someone who is very new to ProTools and exporting sessions will very likely be under the impression that those files have been captured as well as all the audio "wav" files. You should edit this video to add a comment and let them know that before they do all of this, they will want to record all of their MIDI tracks over to stereo audio tracks prior to doing all of this; OR come back and select all of their MIDI tracks and export the MIDI tracks separately, if they think the person they are sending all of this to can match all of the correct sounds and effects. When you're really new at this and clinging onto TH-cam videos for quick and accurate explanations, it can be very frustrating when huge steps like this are totally omitted.

    You played me Wavy... I deleted Unused Clips, and my whole session got deleted... thank God I saved before doing that, and exited out of Pro Tools without saving and came back - and everything was there except the Instrumental, but I was able to convert it back in there again... Thanks Wavy

    • @waynewav
      @waynewav  4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Nah you played yourself. Instead of selecting UNUSED CLIPS sound like you selected ALL CLIPS. You’re welcome.

    Wayne,
    Great talk, but think about the following "Got Ya".
    Please let me know if this is correct.
    In the talk, you first do a Select | Unused.
    Then do the "Save Copy In".
    Problem - If your Clip List has any "Add" i.e. linked audio files, it will delete the linked file which is the original source audio file. Ugh!
    *** Possible Solution ***
    First, do the "Save Copy In".
    "Save Copy In" will copy any "Add" i.e. linked audio files to the "Audio Files" folder.
    Second, open the "Save Copy In" session.
    Now you can safely do the Select | Unused since all the audio files are in the "Audio Files" folder.
    Third, do the "Save Copy In" on the session.
    Yes, I know it is inconvenient to do the "Save Copy In" twice, but losing the original source audio files is far worse.
