Re: PT mixer headroom severely reduced to 20dB over 0dBFS. Bug?

Quite right. Sometimes, the things that are completely wrong are out of the engineer's control. But I'm not thinking of gaining a single file to that point. You're right that it's pretty hard to...

Re: PT mixer headroom severely reduced to 20dB over 0dBFS. Bug?

Doesn't apply. In certain situations, stuff gets sent to you from people who know nothing about audio, and you have to turn around immediately. You can't just go to a conference in the past and...

It's not about need, nor is it about gaining up an individual file. Look, I've been a pro audio guy since 1993. I started out on 2" tape and analog consoles. I know gain structure very well. But...

Could be. The OP said "The same issue occurs using any other method when you go past +20dB within the Protools mixer, like having 2x +12dB trim on a track.
