DV toolkit1 not supported on PT 7.3..what the #$%^*%!

gsilbers · 27th December 2006

now i have to pay 250 bucks to see timecode?!!!! what the hell. i dont need another reverb, compresor etc... i just need to be able to see timecode in PT!
in the DIGI page its sure in small print. even more,... try finding the upgrade online.. the only thing being sold is the 1300 version. u kinda have to dig a little.

any ideas on how to see timecode on PT LE 7.3. ?

Well, at least you only have to pay the difference in price ($300 USD). Or, you can downgrade to 7.0 for the time being. However, I think the jump to 48 stereo tracks makes the cost worth it. I really dig TL Space, too.

If you really, really want to stay at 7.3, don't want to buy the upgrade, AND still need to see a TC counter, then you can use the old TC template trick. Use a TDM or DV Toolkit LE blank session that has the subcounter set to Timecode and the nudge value set to Frames. When you open that session in LE (non-DVTK), the subcounter and nudge value will be preserved. But, since you already have DVTK 1, then downgrading is probably a better option.

You can download this template on my www.mpoweredaudio.com website.

hmmm. interesting. the subcounter trick works. it seems to be off by a couple of frames. ill have to double check session start and other stuff to make sure the timecode is right.

but thanks. that helped.

my bad. i have to jugle between 23.9 fps and 29. drop. so it works. i was using spotbuddy to spot stuff. but this way it works fine. i still missing some stuff i have to work around.

im still a bit ticked off by digidesign doing its "you HAVE TO upgrade" to use me rutine.

Having to pay extra for a timecode ruler sucks...

This shouldn't be features we have to pay for!!!

The same goes for the lousy MP3 option.
