192 I/O AD Exp Card Not Showing Up in PT
This new card is not showing up in my sessions. I click on Analog Output and only Outputs 1-2, 3-4, 5-6 & 7-8 show up. No further outs are displayed.
Once I install this card, am I required to tell Pro Tools that I have installed it? I recently purchased this new card. Any advice appreciated. Thanks so much. |

Did you try clicking "default" in the I/O tabs (all of them, including busses)?

Hi NST7
Thanks for that. Im not sure I understand you. Where is the "default" option? I can click no input or 1-2, 3-4 etc only? Strangely, I just opened Sony SOund Forge and it recognises all my 16 outs which must mean my 2 D/A cards are working. What a relief. Any other suggestions? Are they usually meant to show up in PT instantly after you install them into the 192 I/O? |

In the upper left hand of the screen, under the various menus, there is "Setup". Click that, then "I/O". It will bring up various tabs - Input, Output, Busses, Inserts, Preamp (ignore that one, it's only for the Avid/Digi Pre).
In each tab, there is a button that says "Default". Clicking that should match the various inputs, outputs, busses, tabs, to the hardware that is connected. Just be sure to click the Default button in each tab separately (all 4 of them). In the top section of those tabs, it should hopefully show the 192 with all available I/O. |

Specifically, inside Pro Tools, go to Setup>IO. There, you will see tabs for Inputs, Outputs, Buses, etc. Its well worth spending some time learning these tabs as it allows you to assign IO as you wish, as well as name the IO according to purpose. For instance, I have outputs labeled: Main Out, Phones Booth, Phones Bass, Phones Drums etc.
I also name my inputs according to which preamp feeds them. On the Buses tab, you can also add more buses(up to a total of 256 IIRC) and name those as well(like DrumVerb, VocDelay, DrumComp, etc):D |

Thank you especially NST7. I went into Setup and clicked "Default" on the "outs" Tab and the other tabs too. And it worked! I have never needed to go and change anything here so I guess we must after we install new expansion cards.

Also, remember that you can only have a max of 16 in's with a single 192. You probably need to change inputs 9-16 from Digital to Analog at the top of the screen for each pair.
