Resetting Busses
When you open a session that was created with
Pro Tools any lower version of Pro Tools on a
current version of Pro Tools, only the number of
busses supported on the original system are ini-
tially available.You can reset the number of
available internal mix busses in your session to
match your system’s full capabilities by revert-
ing to the default bus configuration.
To revert to the default bus configuration for your
system:
1 Open the I/O Setup.
2 Click the Bus tab in the upper left.
3 From the pop-up menu to the right of the De-
fault button, select one of the following:
• All Busses
• Output Busses
• Internal Busses
4 Click Default.
5 Click OK to save changes and close the I/O
Setup.
Importing I/O Settings
In Pro Tools 9.0, the Import Settings button lets
you import the settings for only the currently
viewed page of the I/O Setup. For example, if
you are viewing the Input page and import I/O
Settings, only the settings for the Input page are
imported. This helps avoid overwriting your
custom I/O Settings on other pages. In lower
versions of Pro Tools, importing I/O Settings al-
ways imports settings for all pages in the I/O
Setup.
When you import I/O Settings, you can choose
to delete any unused path definitions before im-
porting the new paths, or leave unused path def-
initions intact and add the new paths to the cur-
rent I/O Setup configuration.
To import I/O Settings:
1 Click the tab for the page of the I/O Setup for
which you want to import settings.
2 Click Import Settings.
3 Select an I/O settings file in the Import Set-
tings dialog and click Import.
Pro Tools 9.0 creates 128 (out of 256) inter-
nal busses by default.
Resetting busses to the default setting will
rename all busses to their default name
(Bus 1–2, Bus 3–4, and so on).
For more information on importing and ex-
porting I/O settings, see the I/O Setup
Primer or the Pro Tools Reference Guide.
Option-click (Mac) or Alt-click (Windows)
the Import Settings button to import set-
tings to all pages of I/O Setup.
