Delay Compensation View The Delay Compensa-
tion View displays the total amount of plug-in
delay on each track, lets you apply a user offset
of track delay, and displays the total amount of
delay that Pro Tools applies to each track. The
Delay Compensation View can be shown in the
Mix Window.
To view Delay Compensation information:
■ Choose Display > Mix Window Shows > Delay
Compensation View.
Delay values can be specified in either samples
or milliseconds, as determined in the Display
page of the Preferences dialog. For more infor-
mation, see “Delay Compensation” on
page 428.
Track Input
Input Selectors determine the source input for
audio tracks and Auxiliary Inputs. Track input
can be a hardware input, or bus. While record-
ing, the Input Monitor mode determines when
live input will be monitored through a record-
enabled audio track.
You can also define what physical ports are
routed to Pro Tools input ports in the “Main”
page of the Hardware Setup dialog. For more in-
formation, see “Configuring Pro Tools System
Settings (in the Playback System Engine)” on
page 37.
To assign track input:
■ Select an input path or sub-path from the
track Input Selector.
