HD I/O Hardware Setup Options
HD I/O provides multiple pages of Hardware
Setup options depending on the configuration.
Main Page
HD I/O supports up to sixteen channels of si-
multaneous input and output in multiple I/O
formats (including analog, AES/EBU, ADAT Op-
tical, S/MUX, S/PDIF, and TDIF).
The Main page of the Hardware Setup dialog is
where you define which physical inputs and
outputs on your audio interface are routed to
available input and output channels in
Pro Tools. You can think of this window as a
patchbay that lets you route any of the input
pairs or output pairs on your Pro Tools audio in-
terfaces to channel assignments in the Pro Tools
mixer.
