afl/pfl HD Omni setup

[Tim R.]

I have an HDN setup with an OMNI and I'm wondering how (or if) you can setup AFL/PFL to feed my main speakers? It appears that in the I/O setup I can only assign the AFL/PFL path to an unused set of outputs. Is this possible without dedicating additional hardware outputs and additional speakers? I realize I could probably patch hardware outputs back into inputs and assign those directly to the monitor in the hardware setup, but that seems excessive.

Upgrade to PT12 and you'll be able to do what you are asking.

In previous versions, you needed to dedicate separate outs for AFL/PFL and your Monitor Controller had to switch between them. It was a PITA and Avid went back to the way PT worked years ago.
