Is there a difference between...

... lowering the Out 1-2 fader and using a gain plug-in on Out 1-2 to reduce the gain?
I am trying to always, at the suggestion of many here, leave the Out 1-2 fader at Odb (unity gain.) But for some mixes it seems that I simply cannot do this without overs on the Out 1-2 channel. In this instance what should I do? Lower the Out 1-2 fader or apply a gain plug-in and reduce the gain?
Everything looks good with the Level Meter on Out 1-2 as long as the gain plug-in is above (before?) the the meter.

... lowering the Out 1-2 fader and using a gain plug-in on Out 1-2 to reduce the gain?
When you say "is there a difference" I take it you mean in audio quality, and the answers is no, they both do exactly the same DSP volume process.
Of course there's a difference in that if you have other plugins in the chain, adjusting the gain before those plugins is not the same as adjusting the overall output of the plugin chain with the fader - two different things.
But with just a gain plug on the output channel, it's just adjusting the gain of the signal just like the fader does.
I am trying to always, at the suggestion of many here, leave the Out 1-2 fader at Odb (unity gain.)
This is a legacy practice from early ProTools days I think - there is no problem adjusting the output fader to reduce the final mix level - it's what it's for
Lower the Out 1-2 fader or apply a gain plug-in and reduce the gain?
Either will do, again dependent on where in the chain you want to adjust the gain if you have other master output plugins going on.

  • I did re-set my password and when I click on Install for Mavericks, I still get a box for "administrator password" and it still won't accept my new password. Is there a difference between my Apple ID and the administrator password they're asking for?

    I downloaded Mavericks and it won't install. I did re-set my password and when I click on Install for Mavericks, I still get a box for "administrator password" and it still won't accept my new password. Is there a difference between my Apple ID and the administrator password they're asking for? I never had an administrator password-- I just hit enter and have never had a problem before with previous installations. I'm on an iMac, from 2007, running Mt. Lion (version 10.8.5). I've been looking for other's posts who may be having the same problem, but haven't found any. Can anyone help?

    Ugh. The 'no password, no work' thing is a recent Apple development. I ran into it on my system and ended up having to do a clean install on a partition I fully erased.
    I suppose, if you have the ability to, go online and look up how to burn a bootable DVD image. Download the 10.8.4 image then use the Disk Utility to make a boot image of it. You'll need a dual-layer DVD or a USB drive (or memory stick at least 8GB) If you've got an optical drive, burn the disk, if you've a USB device, use that.
    Then get a pocket drive and copy your important files off the system or let Time Machine do a full backup.
    When the backup is done, insert the disk and hold down the C key until the machine boots off of the DVD. At the point you get to the start window, go to the menu and choose the Disk Utility.
    In the Disk Utility, reformat the drive. You go to the actual DRIVE (not the Macintosh HD, but the root above it that is the actual hard drive device)
    I always do this and *partition* it into several volumes, the benefit being, you can store all of your music, documents and importans stuff on that secondary storage volume you make - it will have it's own index and then the first volume is where you put the OS and it will have it's own index as well. That way, if the OS throws a wobbler and you need to reinstall, you don't lose your data.
    Depending on the size of your hard drive, it is good to give your OS partition at least 60GB and optimally 100GB, and the rest for storage.
    Name your volumes, use the little box sliders to manually size them or put that number in the size window, select for the format, Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and hit Apply and then the Disk Utility will quickly create your new partitions.
    Once finished, quit the Utility and it will return you to the OS installer. Select the volume you want to install to and it should start up and install.
    Once the installation is done, you'll get the new machine startup then you MUST put in a password for the computer. Once you're in, and to the desktop, don't bother with any Mountain Lion updates, go right to the App Store and get the Mavericks update and let it install the app to your Applicaitons folder, then do that install.
    On a side note, there MAY be a way to make a disk image from the Mavericks application and avoid the entire Mountain Lion step.. I honestly do not know, but a bit of hitting the search engines may find out if there is. I think that if you looked for "make Mavericks boot disk or boot image' you may find something.
    Good luck!

    From a performance point of view, you will have better result with BPC 7.0 + SQL Server 2008 than BPC 5.1 + SQL Server 2005.

  • Is there any difference between the 2 different USB cords when syncing???

    I know this may be a paranoid question to ask but I just wanted to make sure.
    Is there any difference between the newer USB cords with the shorter plug (the end that goes into the iPhone) and the older ones with the bigger, square-shaped plugs that you can pinch on the sides to retract?
    Is there a difference in transfer speed, syncing speed, or reliability, or build quality?
    Just asking cuz the newer USB cord that came with my iPhone 3GS is getting frayed and so I'm using the older one instead.
    Thanks to whoever helps.

    No difference except, as you noted, you have to squeeze the older one to remove it. It's important that you do that so you don't damage it or the iPod.

  • HT1604 Is there any difference between Mac OS Extended Format and ExFat?

    Is there any difference between Mac OS Extended Format and ExFat?  I read in a blog that the ExFat was a good way to format an external drive because it avoided many of the pitfalls of the other formats, as long as it is supported by the operating system.  I tried to format my new Seagate drive, and got an invalid option error.  I was able to format it in Mac OS Extended format.  Can you please tell me if this is similar to ExFat.  Thanks.

    The Mac OS format can only be natively read to and written to by a computer running the Mac OS. This creates a problem if the user wishes his external, or other drive to have seamless compatibility between two different OS's, such as Windows and Mac. Yes, there are software solutions that enable a Windows PC to work with a drive formatted as Mac OS, but it gets complicated if you wish that drive to have compatibility "on the fly" with any PC you may encounter.
    It turns out that the format known as ExFAT is able to be natively read by both a Mac and a PC, without running any additional drivers on either machine. ExFAT also doesn't have some of the limitations of FAT32, which both OS's will also read/write.
    ExFAt is not perfect though. Formatting the drive as Mac OS Extended has some advantages on a Mac. First, it is the only format that permits all functionality of the Mac OS, such as using the drive for Time Machine.
    ExFAt is often thought of as the best middleground for an external partition/drive that needs to have easy cross platform compatibility between a Mac and  PC running Vista or Windows 7.

  • Is there any difference between the digital connection cables?

    Is there any difference between digital connection cables that connect to the back of a computer?  I've seen some with two groups of nine pins and a blade.  I've seen some with a solid group of 27 pins.  I've seen the blade pin and the four pin.  I currently run one that has two groups of nine pins with a blade pin.  I use it for DVI and it does ok.  I wanted to look into the HDMI cable and see how or if things would be different.  I bought a cable that has the 27 pin connector with a blade.  It physically connects but there is no signal.  I checked the monitor and I set it first to HDMI and then tried AUTO.  It made no difference.  I powered it all down and restarted it all and there was no difference.  Do I need to keep looking for a cable that has the same design connection to the PC but has the HDMI connection on the other end.  I may have this info wrong.  I just know I have two large connections at the time but the last cable I tried had one large connector and one that looked like an advanced USB design.  And then is there really any gain between the two as far as video quality or response?

    There are several type of connectors/cables with different effect.
    VGA
    DVI
    HDMI
    To understand more, I would say please look it up.

    Nope, two names for the same thing.
    You may have to change some settings of either the TV or the Panasonic system to output to the optical port (TV) and input from the optical port (surround receiver).

  • Is there a difference between mono & stereo when recording with single mic?

    When creating an audio track to record vocals through a single condenser mic, is there a difference between selecting mono or stereo? if so, what's the difference?

    Assuming your source is mono, there will be no sonic difference, and recording to a stereo Logic track will simply waste disk space. If you have a stereo microphone (i.e. it's actually a pair of mics packaged together), then it makes sense to record in stereo. If you're using a standard single microphone, record to a mono Logic track.
