6 Turn on your Legacy I/O.
7 Wait for the Legacy I/O to initialize. While the
Legacy I/O is initializing, some of its LEDs will
flash.
To configure Legacy I/Os:
1 Power up the rest of your gear (see “Powering
Up Your System” on page 13) and launch Pro-
Tools.
2 Choose Setup > Hardware Setup.
3 From the Peripherals list, select the primary
I/O.
4 From the Main tab, select the Legacy I/O but-
ton in the Port Settings.
5 In the Peripherals list, select the first line, la-
beled”> <No Interface>,” directly below your
I/O in the Peripherals list. A pop-up menu will
appear with a list of interfaces to choose from.
6 From the Interface pop-up menu, select your
Legacy I/O.
7 After the Hardware Setup dialog updates,
choose your I/O in the Peripherals list.
The I/O is automatically selected in the Periph-
erals list, and is labelled HD Core #1, Port A.
Configure the peripheral's options as available
in Hardware Setup, then close the Hardware
Setup dialog.
Configuring I/O Setup
I/O Setup provides tools to label and map
Pro Tools input, output, insert, and bus signal
paths.
In addition, the I/O Setup dialog, like the Main
tab of Hardware Setup, provides controls for
routing the physical ports on your I/O periph-
eral to Pro Tools input and output channels.
Multiple Outputs
Multiple outputs from your 192 I/O can be as-
signed from a single Pro Tools mixer output.
This type of mirroring is useful when laying
back material in multiple formats.
For example, if you look at the default settings
for the Hardware Setup dialog, you will see on
the Main tab that there is a “+” sign in front of
the Output assignment for channels 1 and 2.
Click the Default button on the lower edge of
the Hardware Setup dialog if you want to reset
your assignments to the factory defaults.
This basic configuration routes Pro Tools chan-
nels 1 and 2 to Analog Outputs 1 and 2, and the
“+” symbol means that there are multiple out-
puts for channels 1 and 2.
Select the pop-up menu for channels 1 and 2 in
the Output column of the Main tab, you will see
that the Digital [Encl] (AES/EBU, S/PDIF) out-
puts are also checked, which means that those
ports are outputting Pro Tools channels 1 and 2
as well. In fact, the Digital [Encl] (AES/EBU,
S/PDIF) outputs always mirror each other.
Refer to the Pro Tools Reference Guide for
more information on setting up I/O paths.
