Configuring Pro Tools
Hardware Settings
Pro Tools lets you configure the signal routing,
digital I/O format, default sample rate, clock
source, and other hardware-based settings depend-
ing on your system configuration. These system
settings are available in the Hardware Setup
(
Setup > Hardware).
Selecting an Audio Interface to
Configure
The Peripherals list in the Hardware Setup lets you
select any audio interface connected to your
Pro Tools system associated with the selected
Cur-
rent Engine
setting in the Playback Engine dialog.
To change the
Current Engine setting to use a spe-
cific audio interface or DAE (such as HD TDM,
003, a third-party Core Audio or ASIO
interface, or Pro Tools Aggregate I/O), see “Cur-
rent Engine” on page 65).
For Avid HD audio interfaces (such as HD OMNI
or HD I/O) you can configure the signal routing,
digital I/O format, default sample rate, clock
source, and other hardware-based settings for each
HD peripheral connected to your system.
For Pro Tools audio interfaces (such as 003 or
Mbox 2) you can configure the signal routing, dig-
ital I/O format, default sample rate, clock source,
and other hardware-based settings depending on
your system configuration
For third-generation Mbox family audio inter-
faces, and third-party Core Audio (Mac) and ASIO
(Windows) compatible audio interfaces, use the
Launch Setup App button to launch the control
panel for configuring your specific audio interface.
