Protools 11HD/Native and the Yamaha Dante Accelerator Card
Is anyone using the Yamaha Dante Accelerator Card with Protools 11 HD Native?
I'm trying to put together the specs to send out to bid after July 1st for a new workstation computer (new Mac Pro) which will run primarily Protools 11 HD Native and QLab 3. One vendor is telling me that Protools and the Dante Accelerator Card don't work together, Yamaha is telling me that they work fine. :confused: |
Re: Protools 11HD/Native and the Yamaha Dante Accelerator Card
It looks to me like it's basically an audio interface. If that's the case, then no, it won't work alongside HD Native hardware, because HD Native would be your interface.
However, if you wanted to use the HD software and use the Dante card as the interface instead of the HD Native, then that should work, just like you can use any other interface. Maybe that's what Yamaha meant. Or am I misunderstanding what this is? |
Re: Protools 11HD/Native and the Yamaha Dante Accelerator Card
If your using the HD Native card/box then you can not use any other I/O device at the same time
If the Mac sees it as a Core Audio device then Pro Tools should see it but it will be limited to 32 channels of I/O http://www.pro-tools-expert.com/pro-...dware-checker/ said N12 works what ever that is |
Re: Protools 11HD/Native and the Yamaha Dante Accelerator Card
So the is something that I don't understand. If I have a Protools HD Native system with the Thunderbolt or PCIe card and an Omni I/O, and the Protools HD software, and I don't want to use the OMNI I/O and the HD Native card, but I still want to use the HD software, am I still limited to 32 channels of I/O while using another ASIO or Core Audio interface? (Such as the Dante Accelerator Card).
Is the only way to get above the 32 input limit to stack a bunch of HD I/Os or Madi I/Os? |

Why doesn't Avid make an HD Dante interface? :confused: Nuendo is the main option I have for recording and then I would have to import the wave files into Protools in post, which is a PITA. |
Re: Protools 11HD/Native and the Yamaha Dante Accelerator Card
or any third party HD/TDM compatible IO.
e.g Apogee Symphony. Or if your want to connect Dante to an actual HD card. http://us.focusrite.com/rednet-protoolshd. Which may do what you need, even if it's not how you want to do it. Avid does not endorse/support any of these third party HD/TDM connected IO products. Why does Avid not have a Dante solution today, likely lots of reasons including they are very invested in TDM connected IO and its going to be a while until they want to make all that technology redundant in the market, and Dante is a proprietary solution that might be outpaced by pure open AVB. Avid is already doing interesting stuff with AVB with the S3L. I'd personally like to see them focus on pure AVB as it evolves than anything else. Is MADI an option on your console? |
Re: Protools 11HD/Native and the Yamaha Dante Accelerator Card
you can go 64 channels if you go with the MADI interface

I can already record 64 channels with the Dante Virtual Sound card. It's easy to do. Just not while staying inside Protools. It should be even easier by adding a dedicated Dante Ethernet card. |
