All
Just got the Carbon today. Can the preamps, phantom power, polarity ect. be changed from with in Protools? I have the Preamp box checked but not is adjustable. Thank you |

No, the preamp gain and function switches are controlled from the Carbon front panel, as is the monitor and headphone volume/switching.

Normally it will be part of a future release.

Re: Are carbons head amps adjustable from PT
No such guarantee.
The Pro Tools mic preamp/line channel works using a MIDI protocol Avid created for the Avid PRE and is implemented by many other makers (including Grace Design and Digital Audio Denmark -- as found in the MTRX and MTRX Studio.) And it is not hard to implement (with the MTRX/MTRX Studio using a virtual MIDI port over ethernet.) But if Avid wanted to do it, they would have done it from the start (the mic preamp would need to be MIDI controllable.) So it shouldn't be guessed that it will show up later. The Omni also does not have mic pres controllable by the Pro Tools mic pre channel either so Avid have skipped this feature before when they could have put it.

It has already been suggested that it is in the works by Avid - http://duc.avid.com/showpost.php?p=2585945&postcount=9 It seems to be the mode of operating now. Release hardware in some kind of late beta stage and continue developing it over the course of years. Seems to be happening with most avid built stuff in particular.

Re: Are carbons head amps adjustable from PT
At least it was a VP who said that.
Seems odd he is combining Eucon features (monitoring) with the Avid Pre (MIDI/SysEx) channel strip features as they are two different things in his comment. I wonder if they would Euconize the mic pre feature set on the Carbon's sub menu access but still never have it on the channel strip part of Pro Tools' mixer. But generally... never buy anything on promised features or future features. Buy things for what they can do now. Too many companies have never followed through on "promises." For instance, Avid started mentioning extended voices on HDX and that never made it to production --- anyone who bought HDX cards on that premise would be SOL. And Avid isn't exactly a rock stable company financially -- so if it doesn't work when you buy it, don't buy it on the possibility it'll work with a later update.

The remote control port on the back of the HD Omni comes to mind.

The biggest difference that i see, is that extra voices and preamp control in the omni both seemed like ideas that came up well after the products were released. I dont doubt a chunk of the future development ideas for carbon are based on how well it sells.

They also have partner developers they'd upset if they got rid of it (not to mention the currently selling MTRX and MTRX Studio)
