Bus Page
The Bus page of the I/O Setup lets you create and
edit internal mix busses and output busses. The
Bus page also lets you map output busses to out-
put paths (as configured in the Output page of
the I/O Setup).
Configure bus path names and formats, and
map any main bus path to any available output
of the same width or greater. Multichannel bus
paths (stereo or greater) can have any number of
sub-paths. Output bus and internal mix bus
names and channel widths are saved with and
recalled from the session.
Insert Page
The Insert page of the I/O Setup lets you create
and edit hardware insert signal paths for the
Pro Tools mixer. Hardware inserts can route au-
dio through an external device connected to
parallel inputs and outputs of a Pro Tools audio
interface. This lets you process audio on a track
with a hardware insert in real time.
Insert paths require audio interface inputs and
outputs, and are determined by the configura-
tion of the Insert page in the I/O Setup for your
system.
