Pro Tools Basics: MIDI Recording and Virtual Instruments 

I was literally praying for the teaching you have provided here! I am no longer lost in my quest of home recording. You provided the sound reasoning, information on flow, and detail of operation that felt like a university lecture. Why of course......you're a doctor! Some presenters on RU-vid have been helpful, some more than others. But you Dr. Wolf, hands down, the best! Thank you so much. Can't wait for more juicy information - plus I liked you staying in the corner like that. You're a good man.

I love how proud he was of this beat at the end 😂 nostalgia is a beautiful thing. Great video learned a lot despite using protoola for over a decade. Thanks! Will sub 💪🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾

Just finished watching this vid. That was INCREDIBLE. Very entertaining when you did the song at the end. Very informative and thorough. You are an excellent instructor and the best I have seen by far on RU-vid. I upgraded to Artist mainly from watching your vids and where I was close to giving up on PT...Now I am enjoying it immensely thanks to you!

Amazing. Thank you so much. I loved every second of this video...including the conductor track aka Harry Potter lol .

Fantastic information! You are very gifted at teaching. Not everyone can convey information to others. Even if the person knows the information, some people just can't teach others and convey the information. I am definitely archiving your videos to go back to, for reference. Thanks for doing your videos.

I was grooving to that Beverly Hills Cop theme!!

This video is really helpful and informative. Thank you very much 😊

Very concise and useful! Thanks!

Thanks! You certainly helped me a lot to get started with MIDI Recordings! Great tips. Easy to follow! Thank you! Greetings from Sweden: )

this was so easy to follow. Thank you

Really good basic tutorial! thanks alot Scott

Thank you. Seriously, thank you ☺️

What about for ProTools users that don't have an actual MIDI keyboard? Any functionality on the computer keyboard itself? Thanks

None of this worked for me for some reason. After creating the instrument track and clicking multi channel plug in under Inserts, I couldn't find an "Instrument" option in the drop down. I tried everything, watched many videos, nothing.

Great session, but the background seems blurry, is that me or you?

Hello! Do you have a video about importing MIDI stems from Finale? And how to mix those MIDI stems (choose sounds, etc.) once in ProTools? I use Windows.

why i cant hear my virtual instrument , when i click the keys in the virtual instrument the sound is not coming, it shows check the instrumental path

I did the same thing but when it come to recording the instrument I get no sound after it done recording

didnt get how u opened insert

Podrías ayudarme porfa El problema es que no suena el instrumento virtual

I made a midi track but it wont give me any output for the midi track

Love the video. Thank you. How do you play the instrument through my Yamaha Motif ES 8? I can play the mini grand by clicking the notes with my mouse and I hear it fine, but I need my Yamaha to trigger the virtual instrument so I can play a song. Appreciate the support.

does anyone know how he records a sound and then uses midi to control the pitch? video plz???

is a midi keyboard required to do this? Like how in logic we can have a software keyboard to record midi but i cant find that in protools. anyone in comments that can help?

no matter which version or update of Pro Tools i have used i continue to have the same issues with midi and VI's on Pro Tools. Hanging notes, lost midi channels assignments when opening my session again, lost or hanging sustain midi commands, occasional copy error where one midi segment does not work on another VI, poor real time midi record timing regardless of input buffer always requiring quantizing or manual adjustment, plus other item, do you experience similar problems?

The little circle looks like a clock to me.
