Inserting Hardware via i/o plugin
I am on Protools 12.4. A Macbook Pro with OS 10.10. My interface is a UAD Apollo Twin Duo which has two stereo out and one stereo in. 1/2 out for monitors and 3/4 out for headphone/output etc. I am inserting the i/o plugin on my master bus to use my API 2500 as a plugin. I am only getting feed back this way. Everything plays through the API when I send it via output 3/4 on every track including the master bus. I observed that the i/o plugin in Protools is not like the one in Logic Pro which is straight forward. Select 3/4 out and 1/2 in and that's it for Logic Pro. Am I doing something wrong? I want to do more mixing via the API in Protools which has some features that i like.

Re: Inserting Hardware via i/o plugin
Hardware inserts need to use the same I/o so you will need an In 3/4 and an Out 3/4 to set it up. You can't have the 2500 going into an In 1/2 and an out 3/4
You'll need an interface with more I/o to use hardware inserts

Re: Inserting Hardware via i/o plugin
Pro Tools inserts are as straight forward as it gets, just like on a real desk
Insert Send I/O = Insert Return I/O

Re: Inserting Hardware via i/o plugin
if it lets you use 1/2 out - hardware - 1/2 in ... and use 3/4 for monitoring .. otherwise you just do not have enough I/o to do this

Re: Inserting Hardware via i/o plugin
Oh yes. Good idea John. 1/2 in/out. I am going to try that. I will give a feed back later.

Re: Inserting Hardware via i/o plugin
The reason I/O being used for Inserts needs to be "stacked" is so PT can do the delay compensation properly. But in this instance, since it's final buss processing, you can simply route the audio out any output and return it to any input for realtime "capture" to a new track.
This will only work of course if the hardware is last in the chain. |

Re: Inserting Hardware via i/o plugin
It's no go. 1/2 in/out not working. Thanks. I guess I would have to use my Presonus Project Studio or my saffire pro dsp 24.
