Channel Compatibility
TL Space works best with IRs that match your
current channel configuration. For example, if
TL Space is instantiated in a mono to stereo con-
figuration, stereo IRs will be highlighted in the
IR browser. The IR information displayed in the
display area shows how many inputs and out-
puts an IR has. For example, an IR listed as 2 in-
put 4 output is a stereo to quad IR.
If an IR is loaded that doesn’t match the current
configuration, TL Space will try to create the
best possible match with the IR provided. For
example, if a stereo IR is loaded into a mono in-
stantiation of TL Space, TL Space will sum the
left and right channels in order to mimic a ste-
reo reverb with both channels panned to mono.
If an IR is loaded that is missing a required chan-
nel, TL Space will automatically create a phan-
tom channel for the IR if needed. For example, if
a stereo IR is loaded into a quad instantiation,
TL Space will compute left and right surround
channels automatically based on the existing
channels. If a quad IR is loaded into a 5.0 chan-
nel instantiation, TL Space will compute a phan-
tom center from the front left and right chan-
nels. Phantom channels are indicated by
comparing the IR information displayed in the
display area to the number of channels in use.
For example, a 2 input 4 output IR used with a
5.0 output instantiation of TL Space will auto-
matically have a phantom center channel cre-
ated.
Presets
TL Space supports the Pro Tools Plug-in Librar-
ian. When an IR file is loaded, all controls re-
main at their current positions as the IR file only
contains the audio waveform. By default, pre-
sets contain both the IR waveform and control
settings and can be saved as required so that spe-
cific control settings can be retained for future
sessions. If you save presets without embedding
the IR waveform, be sure that you include the IR
waveform with the session when transferring
the session between different Pro Tools systems.
There are two important items to note about us-
ing presets in TL Space:
• TL Space presets do not store information
for the Wet and Dry level controls. This is
to enable you to change presets without
losing level information. Likewise, the
Pro Tools Compare function is not enabled
for these controls.
• A TL Space preset only includes the cur-
rently selected snapshot.
IR files are audio files only and do not con-
tain information about TL Space control
settings. If you wish to save specific control
settings for an IR, you should save them us-
ing the Pro Tools Plug-in Librarian or using
the snapshot facility of TL Space.
