Number of tracks
I've just upgraded my HD1 system to PT9 but I still only get 96 tracks. Am I missing something? I thought PT9 was 512 regardless of the hardware?

Re: Number of tracks
Are you talking about MIDI tracks?

Re: Number of tracks
IIRC, HD Accel will give you 192 audio tracks, HD will give you 128 tracks.

Re: Number of tracks
It took me about 15 seconds to find this (hint...hint)...

Re: Number of tracks
HD has always been based on number of "voices" which is entirely hardware dependent. Doesn't matter what version you have, an HD1 card will always have a max of 96 voices.

Re: Number of tracks
Well the blurb on the front page of the product guide says
"Create more complex mixes with double the internal busses (256) and total audio tracks (512) " I'm aware of the limitations of the TDM card, but I thought the whole point of running Tools native was to sidestep this. If I run Reaper I get unlimited tracks through the full I/O of my TDM card. So how many tracks will I get if I remove the core card and put my Hammerfall in instead ? |

Re: Number of tracks
192 voices. Which in practice means 192 mono tracks, or 96 stereo, or somewhere in between, if you use a combination of mono and stereo (as long as you have bought the toolkit).
FWIW when I bought PT9 I also didn't really understand this voices/tracks palaver. I was also used to having virtually unlimited tracks and proper ADC, but time taught me that this is not the Pro Tools way. D
