Configuring I/O Setup
I/O Setup dialog provides tools to label and map
Pro Tools input, output, bus, and insert signal
paths.
In addition, the I/O Setup dialog, like the Main
tab of Hardware Setup, provides controls for
routing Pro Tools input and output channels to
the physical ports on your 192 Digital I/O.
Multiple Outputs
Pro Tools output channels can be assigned to
multiple hardware outputs of the
192 Digital I/O. You can multi-assign individual
outputs manually in the Mix or Edit windows,
or you can define multiple outputs in Hardware
Setup that are global, and will persist from ses-
sion to session. You can multi-assign any avail-
able 192 Digital I/O outputs in the Hardware
Setup dialog.
To route Pro Tools channels to multiple
192 Digital I/O outputs:
1 In the Hardware Setup dialog, click the pop-up
menu for the Pro Tools output pair you wish to
multi-assign (for example, 1–2, 3–4, 15–16). By
default, all pairs are assigned to a 192 Digital I/O
output pair; Outputs 1–2 are by default mirrored
to the two-channel Digital [Encl] pairs.
2 Select one of the outputs to which you want
to route the output from Pro Tools.
3 While pressing Control (Macintosh) or the
Start key (Windows), select each additional out-
put destination.
Selecting multiple output formats does not af-
fect time slot count. The multiplexing of audio
is done in the peripheral rather than in software
or the computer.
Refer to the Pro Tools Reference Guide for
more information on setting up I/O paths.
