Default Re: Dolby Atmos hardware requirement for Production/Mastering suite

Can i use the Avid Audio Bridge with a HT RMU ?

If not, does this mean i must get 2 x HDX card with MADI or Dante just so i can 128 sends from the PT computer to the HT RMU computer ?

There's no more needs for Atmos Mastering Suite and/or a dedicated HT RMU, correct ?
The HT RMU and Cinema RMU are two different versions of the Mastering Suite. The Cinema RMU creates a deliverable for DCP.

It sounds like now you can make an ADM BWV deliverable with the Production Suite. But the main problem will be having enough CPU resources to run both an entire mix in Pro Tools and the RMU at the same time.

According to the v3.3 documentation for the Mastering Suite, Dante or MADI are still required to connect one or more protools computers to a HT-RMU.

They only mention Dolby Audio Bridge for the Production Suite.

What would be really cool is if the Audio Bridge could in some way get 128 channels out of ProTools and send it via Dante (or other IP based thing) to be picked up by a separate RMU / DAMS.

Of course, this is sort of like saying, can Avid open up IO limit of 32... still.

So there's no more 64 IO limit for PT Native ?

Oops, sorry I meant PT Ultimate.. Anyway, Dolby Audio Bridge can now go 130 channels (last 2 could be for TC) from PT Ultimate to the Renderer

I'm using PT Ultimate with Thunderbolt Native and DAD AX32. I thought one needs 2 x HDX card to get more than 64 I/O.

You need two HDX cards minimum to connect to a hardware Renderer. (Mastering Suite)

But the Production Suite can use Dolby Audio Bridge to communicate 130 channels on the same machine with Pro Tools. So technically, you don’t need any HDX cards for routing to the Production Suite.
