Configuring HD OMNI in Pro Tools
This chapter explains how to configure
Pro Tools for use with HD OMNI.
Pro Tools Hardware Setup
The Pro Tools Hardware Setup dialog lets you
configure HD OMNI for use with Pro Tools. It
also lets you configure some of the same settings
as in Setup mode on HD OMNI (see Chapter 5,
“SETUP Mode”).
In addition to the standard Main, Analog In,
and Analog Out tabs, the Hardware Setup dialog
provides the Monitor and Mixer tabs that are
unique to HD OMNI. Note that all HD OMNI
specific hardware settings (except labels) are
stored in HD OMNI itself.
To configure HD OMNI in Pro Tools:
1
Choose
Setup > Hardware
.
2
From the Peripherals list, select the HD OMNI
audio interface.
3
Click the
Monitor
tab and configure the op-
tions (see “Monitor” on page 29).
4
Click the
Main
tab and configure the options
(see “Main” on page 26).
5
Click the
Analog In
tab and configure the op-
tions (see “Analog In” on page 28).
6
Click the
Analog Out
tab and configure the op-
tions (see “Analog Out” on page 28).
7
Click the
Mixer
tab and configure the options
(see “Mixer” on page 37).
8
Continue by configuring any other HD audio
interfaces connected to your system.
9
When you are finished, click
OK
.
You can validate the successful installation
of HD OMNI in your Pro Tools system sim-
ply by playing back and recording audio in
Pro Tools. This can be accomplished with-
out having to adjust Hardware and I/O set-
tings in Pro Tools. In most cases, the default
settings work well for stereo sessions.
For more information about configuring
Pro Tools, see the Pro Tools Reference Guide.
Because the Monitor configuration affects
the available Output paths, be sure to con-
figure the Monitor page before configuring
the other pages in the Hardware Setup and
the I/O Setup.
