Pro Tools 10HD and 5.1
Can anyone help me? I'm trying to setup a 5.1 system using pro tools 10HD for the first timne. I've used PT for many years with a stereo setup. Went to create a new session and there are no surround options. Checked help and it said a surround mixer plug in would be in my unused plug ins folder. It wasn't there. Do I have to install any additional content?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

If not, then just reinstall PT. Once you've reinstalled, make a session using one of Avid's pre made I/O setups. |

There should be 4 different mixer plugins:
- Stereo Mixer - Dithered Stereo Mixer - Surround Mixer - Dithered Surround Mixer I have not tried what happens if you have all of them in the plugins folder, I bet you should only have one or two of them installed (stereo and/or surround, dithered or normal).

Guys, what are these mixer plugins for? I've been messing with surround sessions and wasn't even aware of them. From what I understand, it order to access surround tracks, you just have to make sure your I/O is set up for surround before these tracks will be made available.

Of course PT's default install puts them there so you've never needed to mess with them. |

Just take a look, you should see four mixer plugins there.

Many thanks folks! The last time I installed PT fresh was in 2007 when Accel systems were the thing. I chose not to install the surround mixers at that time. In the end I was due to update PT and it was a fresh install. So anyone else having the same problems, uninstall PT and install the latest version.
