Overview of this book

Pro Tools has long been an industry-standard Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) for audio professionals, but it can often be overwhelming for new and experienced users alike. The Pro Tools 2023 Post-Audio Cookbook acts as a reference guide to the software and breaks down each stage of a project into manageable phases. From planning a session, editing a sequence, performing a mix to printing the final masters, you can approach this book either sequentially or peruse the self-contained recipes. You’ll come to grips with workflows for music production, motion picture, and spoken word production, helping you gain expertise in the area of your choice. You'll learn aspects of music mixing like side chain processing to keep instruments from overshadowing each other and conforming for motion picture. The author’s expertise with Pro Tools will help you discover and incorporate different techniques into your workflows. You’ll also learn to build consistent and replicable workflows and templates by understanding what happens behind the scenes in Pro Tools. With this cookbook, you’ll be able to focus on the creative aspects of your audio production and not get mired by the technical hurdles. By the end of this book, you’ll be well-equipped to handle even the most complex features of Pro Tools to deliver immaculate results for your clients.

A major shoutout goes to Oleg Pertsovsky and Slava Nesmeyanov, who developed and shared this technique with me (and permitted me to share it with you in this book). Editing while recording a track is typically not possible. In the previous recipe, we showed you how to edit a track as you listen to it, but due to the way audio is captured to disk, it is not possible to do the same thing to a track while it is being recorded. There are ways of achieving the same result using an alternate track as a proxy for your edit points. We’ll go over how to do this in this recipe.

Getting ready

For this recipe, you will need a Pro Tools session with three mono audio tracks. We will be performing the work as if you are recording someone as they speak, so you may do this with your own microphone if you have one, or you can simply record a blank track to simulate the workflow.

The commands in this recipe require Keyboard Focus to be active in the Edit window...
