#PROTOOLS 12 OFFLINE DASH PRO#
It’s a bit of a pain to have to restart Pro Tools each time I come home and change to HD Native. An option for a primary preferred engine should be added that will look for the particular Playback engine and select that one if available at startup. Because I travel, I switch between my HD Native at home, other HDX systems, and even the built in output of my MacBook at times. Since this section was being updated, a huge improvement would be to the Playback Engine setup as well. Pro Tools 12 can even detect if the monitor output has changed and will automatically select the current system’s monitor output. Session mapping is now also stored in the session and the system, allowing to choose between your own I/O or the layout that was used in the current session (remapped outputs display in the session notes as green and once saved change to black).
The same keyboard modifiers used in assigning inputs, outputs, and sends can be used for output busses as well. This makes routing headphone mixes and stems for summing easier to manage by simply using a send assignment to a bus. On top of the unlimited number of busses, sub-paths can be created to route busses to physical outputs. I even tested this out, and even though it takes a while to process, Pro Tools never denied me the opportunity to create new busses. On both Pro Tools Standard and HD, virtually unlimited amounts out busses can be created. The amount of tracks at 44.1 or 48 kHz, has also increased from 96 to 128.Īs we’ve covered in the introduction, the I/O section has been updated to improve feedback on changes in the session, default output monitoring, and I/O mapping changes. On top of Input Monitoring, Pro Tools standard now comes with AFL / PFL solo modes, “Copy to Send” command, 512 Instrument tracks, VCA Master Tracks, Advanced Metering, and the Fixed RAM disk Cache. This is finally available for all versions. One of the more requested features is the input monitoring button.
Some of these changes have made it over from HD in version 12. In the past, a lot of users complained of the lack of some of the more basic features in HD that weren’t in the standard Pro Tools. First, let’s address the changes to non HD Pro Tools. This Section explains all of the new feature updates for both Pro Tools Standard and HD.Īll of these visual bells and whistles make life much easier and are great but functionality is king when it comes to making audio sound the best it can in the shortest amount of time. Welcome to Part 3 of a 5 part Everything Recording Review or Pro Tools 12.
