Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
That makes sense. It’s a matter of workflow. When i wanna go between formats i just always naturally started a new session. I’ve never worked on a 7.1 session though. But between 5.1 and Stereo I’ve always just started on a stereo session. And when i wanted to go to 5.1 i just created a new session and imported. It’s an extra few steps, but it’s always worked for me. I never even thought to do it in the same session. Didn’t even know it was possible. Lol I’d love to be able to sit in with somebody and learn that one.

1. Do everything at the highest track width in your session, so everything is 5.1, for example. Then duplicate your mix and stem busses and add downmix plug-ins to make stereo mixes and stems. Very easy. Sounds fine in most circumstances. 2. Run the alternate mixes from sends on your tracks. So the entire stereo mix would run off "MIX 2.0" or whatever. Not as easy, but sonically more flexible since you can tweak level and pan independently of the 5.1 mix. The biggest reason to work this way is that any tweak you make to the mix or the edit updates all output versions simultaneously. Clients expect this.

Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
Ok thanks. I’ll try it out when i get some time later on this week. What downsizing plugs are you using? I have DTX neutral but I’ve never really figured out how to use it correctly.

I use Neyrinck and Avid downmixers. Neyrinck to be compatible with ye olde Dolby LtRt spec sheets. With the exception of Dolby Atmos, I haven't experimented with the new generation of high-tech downmixers yet.

Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
this is funny. The suits promising **** the coders cant make happen. If this doesnt work then give us a "native mode' and give us as many voice packs as we have hdx cards in the system.

Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
The native mode that we asked for years ago is theoretically Avid Audio Server. But the handful of times I've tried to use it on an HDX system, I couldn't get it going. Is anyone successfully using PT in this mode on HDX hardware?

Well if it has that purpose and we can see our attached hardware then just give us voice packs based on how many hdx cards we have. Consider them dongles. I mean I never needed a second hdx card anyhow and only spent 3k for 256 more voices. So hook it up. |
