Multiple Mix Modes
I'm new to pro tools but used Digital Performer years ago. One thing I really liked was the ability to create multiple mix modes. This essentially allowed me to create a mix w/ automation and plugins and save it. I could then create a new mix and have completely different automation and plugins..
Is there any way to do this in pro tools? I find myself making a change, bouncing to disk, sending to other for feedback and then having to go back and reset if the new mix isn't what they wanted. I searched the web and wasn't able to find out if this is possible. I'm running 12.8.2. |

Re: Multiple Mix Modes
I don't know if there is a function for this, so I do it the old fashioned way. Save As, and just give each version a name you'll recognize.
Works great if all your recording and edits are done, and all you're doing is different mixes. Gets a little tricky if you later add audio or editing since the older sessions will not be aware of the new work.

Re: Multiple Mix Modes
Indeed. Save As...and name appropriately. I do this a lot as I invariably end up with "songname_mix1", "songname_mix2", etc(actually gone all the way to mix9 once.......just once). As I amass multiple versions, when I am sure a version is not a "keeper", I still keep it, but move it to the Session File Backups folder for that session(same folder that holds your auto-backup files)

Re: Multiple Mix Modes
You also have Import Session Data, and can import the mix from other versions and Match Tracks.

Re: Multiple Mix Modes
Just duplicate all playlists, deselecting the option to copy automation, then hide and make inactive the previous set. Keep going like that.

Re: Multiple Mix Modes
The DP (Digital Performer) way is like session-folders. Then those (chunks) may freely overlap in a row or many rows.
