Chapter 7: Preferences 99
Satellite Link Section
(Pro Tools HD Only)
These preferences are available only with the
Satellite Link option. The Pro Tools Satellite
Link option lets you link up to 5 Pro Tools sys-
tems (or 4 Pro Tools systems and an Avid
®
Me-
dia Composer
®
with the Video Satellite option
or a Video Satellite LE system) over an Ethernet
network so that you can cue, play, and stop the
transport, make play selections, and solo tracks
across any of the systems from any linked work-
station.
Transmit Solos Causes a linked Pro Tools system
to send the solo status of its tracks to all other
linked Pro Tools systems. On other linked sys-
tems that are set to receive solos, tracks follow
solo behavior as if the solo were on the local sys-
tem.
Receive Solos Causes a linked Pro Tools system
to receive solos from all other linked Pro Tools
systems that are set to transmit solo status of
their tracks. Tracks on the receiving system fol-
lows solo behavior as if the solos were on the lo-
cal system.
Solo Independent of Linked State Causes a
Pro Tools system to send the solo status of its
tracks to other satellite systems even when it is
unlinked. This allows control of solo status
across systems even when transport control is
not enabled.
DAE Errors Stop All Linked Systems Causes a
DAE error on any linked Pro Tools system to
stop the transport on all linked systems. When
this option is not selected, linked systems will
not stop if a DAE error occurs on one system.
Transmit Play Selections Causes a linked
Pro Tools system to send the Edit window selec-
tion to all other linked Pro Tools systems. On
other linked systems that are set to receive play
selections, the selection is mirrored in the Edit
window.
Receive Play Selections Causes a linked
Pro Tools system to receive Edit window selec-
tions from all other linked Pro Tools systems
that are set to transmit play selections.
