Back in Pro Tools for at least a little while… For every one thing I remember I love, I remember two more that I hate. Has everybody who’s not bought into an ecosystem of some sort decided where we’re all going after this? Can we all just agree on Studio One so I can mostly just get to work, and focus my remaining complaint energy on the fact that their UI seems to insist on changing random things while I’m trying to scroll one of their stupid micro-UIs because EVERYTHING LISTENS TO MOUSE WHEEL? Also sorry Logic fans, I can’t abide its insistence on turning mono strips into implicit stereo ones at the drop of a hat - it’s cost me too many hours teaching musicians how to bounce tracks for the mix, and often enough failing, giving up, and then banging my head on the desk while figuring out what’s actually mono, what should be mono but isn’t, and what’s actually stereo.
