I use PT LE 7.1 with MPT and Command 8 control surface on a Windows XP PC. I recently acquired a Soundtracs Topaz Project 8 24-8-2 console with VCA automation for channel volume and mute. Normally this desk is programmed via a Windows utility provided by Soundtracs, which is pretty outdated (only works in Windows 3.11 and a bit shakey in W95, and is not easily syncable to currents systems etc.) The automation controller unit is entirely controlled via MIDI and I have its MIDI Specifications in the official documentation that came with the unit. I would like to ditch this user-unfriendly programming interface and control the desk straight from within Pro Tools using its MIDI tracks. I was told that I can do this with MIDI-OX, which I have downloaded and installed, but I'm not quite sure how to map it to make this work.

What I would like to do is, I would like to be able to create 24 MIDI tracks within Pro Tools and assign each of them to one input channel of the Topaz connected to a MIDI output on Digi002R, and make Topaz Automation Interface control the VCAs according to the CC instructions coming from Pro Tools' respective MIDI channels' volume and mute information in real time. If I can achieve this, I will be able to physically control the Topaz VCAs via Command 8's touch sensitive faders as well, because my current Command 8 control surface can also talk to Pro Tools' MIDI tracks in a similar manner (however the MIDI instructions used to carry out this may be handled totally different than Topaz's specifications, which is where I need help). So I was wondering if anybody could help me set MIDI-OX as a little translator that will convert Pro Tools' mute and volume instructions into a form that Topaz 8 Automation CPU card can understand. Or let me know if it is possible to configure MIDI-OX and Pro Tools to do this without having to use a separate MIDI plugin at all. It's a one way open loop communication (from Pro Tools to Topaz only). No feedback coming back from Topaz into Pro Tools. Topaz' MIDI Specification is as follows: The CPU card is entirely controlled by MIDI.

Jackson Guitar Company & Serial Numbers Official Jackson Guitars Site Jackson Guitars started off providing quality American-made heavy metal guitars to popular artists, headlined by Randy Rhoads. Anybody know anything about Jackson's Serial numbers. The only information I can find is about their american made guitars. Anyway, I have a KE3, whic. Jackson guitars made in japan serial numbers. Update to FAQ: Serial numbers from Sunbane and an old JS30DK confirmed something I suspected for some time: The JS30DK/DKT/RR/KV/KE/WR series that was made for the 2005 catalog year had some guitars built in late 2004 (posts were made here on JCF in 11/2004). Jackson JS, X and Pro Series guitars that were made from 2013 until present day feature a 10-digit alphanumeric serial number located on the back of the headstock or neckplate. The first two number digits in the serial number identify the year the guitar was created.

Here's a cool little mixer I picked up to submix drum machines, samplers, synths and so on in my home studio. It works great and sounds very even and warm.

The EQ points seem to be just in the right places to sweeten up sounds without making them sound thin, muddy or harsh on the high end. Anyway, I'm not really doing much of that anymore, so I'm going to let it go. I'm mostly back to playing plain old acoustic drums again. This mixer would also be good for someone who was performing live and wanted to step up from a powered mixer setup to something a little bit more versatile. With the two aux's you could have a dedicated monitor mix and send a signal to your preferred effects processor.
