Seems like we talked about this somewhere...but...I'm too lazy to look. So - how is this used? On busses? On the master? www.soundradix.com/products/pi |

I have never been able to make this plug work properly very frustrating the way they build a product and expect it to be so revolutionary it should be acceptable to change 90 percent of your work flow.

Just wanted to give a shout out to this thing. I've been popping it on the Low End instruments and it really makes a difference. Didn't really know how to use it, but I just put it on the channel, change it to LF and pull the weight up...then drag it to other low end instruments...and it works its magic. I just finished a song that I put a ton of different kick samples...Couldn't get the bottom to thump, so I popped this on all the channels. Toggling it on and off was pretty eye-opening. Amazing how much phase messes up mixes.

$99 would have been good: $250 kinda steep?

You try Surfer Eq? Both of these are now go-to for me. SEQ corrects things that nothing else will correct. |

I use their auto align on every mix.

I use their auto align on every mix. I do think its the best auto align and it makes a huge difference on stuff with multiple mics in one room. |

Auto Align is a staple for me. Almost anything multi-mic’d gets it but particularly electric guitars and bass.

+1 using Auto-Align
Couldn't figure out Pi - might retry

+1 using Auto-Align Couldn't figure out Pi - might retry I couldn’t figure it out either. But just putting it on multiple channels in the same frequency spectrum and turning up the channel weight - it just works. You can toggle back and forth and really hear it. I guess you can only really hear it when the channels are out of phase to begin with. |

Is Pi like Auto-Align's bigger smarter sibling or is it a different animal altogether?

Like everyone else here I couldn't figure out Pi so I just stick with auto align. I like to think I'm a smart guy. Maybe they need to work on the Pi user interface or do a quick start user guide or something.

Make sure you read through the PI manual, and specifically the "Important Notes" section. There's a significant amount of latency to be dealt with, and both Logic and Pro Tools are referenced. Also, PI doesn't work with frozen tracks, which makes it a no-go for me.

Also, PI doesn't work with frozen tracks, which makes it a no-go for me. Does auto align not allow you to freeze or commit as well? I just demoed it, and I tried to commit the tracks it was on, and PT would just hang up every time. Same for freeze. I was mainly wanting to commit the drum tracks to see what it was doing in relation to the timeline. In this case it was live drums along with loops, and while the kit was improved with auto align, it threw them out with the loops. I could have bussed them to new tracks and recorded them. I did do a stereo bounce of just the drums to import back in, and when I did, the bounce was out of time/phase with the existing drums that had auto align inserted. I ended up trying that 3-4 times and every bounce was different. One of them was considerably late compared to the other ones. I didn't have time to figure out if auto align was the cause of that or some another plugin. I've held off buying it for now. |

Hey john is this still in use for you? I’m interested in slapping it on all of my busses to summing... but 250 ain’t cheap. Definitely will be demoing but curious about ur long term thoughts.

Seems like we talked about this somewhere...but...I'm too lazy to look. So - how is this used? On busses? On the master? www.soundradix.com/products/piHad to download the demo version after reading the thread, was curious. It makes the job absolutely wonderful. What I really like about it is that it does not move the tracks to the exact starting point as Auto Align does with a reference channel. I always want the overhead and room channels to be after (which is for obvious reasons) and not be completely aligned with the close microphones as some do. There, PI does exactly what I want and does not disturb the hierarchy in the microphones, but only corrects "Phase" in real time. The sad thing is that it does not work with LUNA. It will be "Sync Error". PI needs 500 for "Global Lookahead Buffer". It was really sad. Because I'm on my way from Logic & ProTools for LUNA. Maybe Drew @ UA can shime in and tell me if I'm doing something wrong here with LUNA and SoundRadix PI? Otherwise it is an absolutely wonderful plug and I will buy it immediately if it will work in LUNA in the future |

Do the synch in another daw and import to Luna ?

Do the synch in another daw and import to Luna ? Nope, that's not a good solution. I want a workflow and if it does not work in LUNA, I skip it. I will sit in LUNA in the future and leave Logic and PT behind me. Hopefully it's just something I have missed in LUNA and that it still works:) |
