Avid HD Native and Pro Tools|HD Hardware Configuration for Avid Editing Systems
879
With Pro Tools|HD or HD Native hardware installed on a supported Avid editing system, you can
perform the following:
• Play back audio through up to 8 audio outputs. You can also play back audio with a SYNC
HD or SYNC I/O device connected. The Avid editing application does not control the clock
settings for these devices.
• If you have multiple audio interfaces connected (“daisy-chained”) to your Pro Tools|HD or
HD Native card, the playback defaults to outputs 1 and 2 of the first device.
• The Avid editing application can input and output audio up to 48 kHz with HD or Native
hardware.
To set up your system to use Pro Tools|HD or HD Native hardware with your Avid editing
application, see the following topics:
• “Configuring the ASIO Driver (Windows)” on page 879
• “Configuring the Core Audio Driver (Macintosh)” on page 881
