Re: Now that I am back on Mac, Carbon a real option

I have a small home studio where I work with bands. Currently do it as a side gig, but building a larger 600sqft facility in my backyard to level up my game. I use 1 carbon and a pulse 16. I have 8...

Re: Carbon - general setup questions

I would leave the ethernet cable connected to your mac for hardwired internet.

Then use one of these guys https://www.sonnettech.com/product/thunderbolt-avb-adapter/overview.html which is the...

Re: WINDOWS10 w/Carbon

You dont need to use the knob on the interface at all. This is controllable from right inside pro tools.

The only thing you cant do (yet) is adjust the HP and Monitor volumes. Everything else...

Re: using Two Carbons together ?

I actually dont know if you can access the HP outputs on the second carbon if its in "pre" mode.

I will say that the opportunity that DOES present itself is to pick up a used carbon that is in...

Re: Carbon Expanded - Analog/ADAT Toggle

Hard agree here. I have a pulse 16 on my adat expansion, and I am contemplating a carbon pre because I really need 16 more IO, but until they support adat and line simultaneously its a hard sell for...

Re: using Two Carbons together ?

Ive also learned recently that you can add another Carbon and use it like a carbon pre, but it wont allow you to expand DSP, you are still stuck with 8.

I dont think it expands monitoring for...

Re: Does Avid Carbon work with Avid S1?

I think something else is going on with your system. Im running an M1 mac mini with 16GB of ram and I use the UF8, UC1, and the new UF1 with zero lag and no impact on DSP.

It sounds to me like...

Re: Carbon latency when using hardware insert while tracking

OK so I am definitely willing to do this. What steps would I take?

I have monitored with analog insert on a channel (DSP ON) and not perceived any latency, but doesn't mean its not there.

Re: Carbon latency when using hardware insert while tracking

Yeah so this was done with DSP OFF because I wanted to test specifically for using outboard gear during mixdown. I cant imagine with DSP ON it would be worse.

The method was using signal...

Re: Carbon latency when using hardware insert while tracking

I ran this test a while ago. I saw almost no latency, the only latency introduced was whatever latency the hardware unit introduced itself. Im seeing sub 1ms latency its closer to .0005

Re: Avid Carbon Central 'invisible' when hidden

One option is to make it configurable in the preferences, I think Adobe does this (hide when minimized) or something like that.

Re: Avid Carbon Central 'invisible' when hidden

Re: Pro tools Carbon and ADAT

Should also be noted that the ferrofish has really flexible routing and presets that you can quickly change between.

I run 16 ch of 48k IO for mixing using 2 of the 4 ports on the FF, when I...

Re: Carbon+Ferrofish level matching

I have a ferrofish pulse 16, its great!. I dont have any leveling issues. With everything set to 0 on the FF, it matches the +4 settings on the carbon excatly. When I set up my rig, I sent a signal...

Re: Carbon Expanded - ADAT

I have been under the impression that this is no longer a hardware bandwidth concern. The issue is now on the software side, but there is no timeline to unlock it.

Re: Bunch of Carbon questions and suggestions

I have it on good authority that even though today the carbon pre doesnt allow you to use the ADAT and Analog IO simultaneously, it is a software not a hardware change to enable it.

I have a...

Re: NEW -> Pro Tools | Carbon Pre

I have a ferrofish pulse 16, actually snagged it back when it was on sale at sweetwater for $850, so it was a pretty sweet deal. (pun intended)

I run my sessions at 48k 99.99% of the time and the...

Re: Avid Carbon Central

I still dont see carbon central in my avid link. But now knowing this, I'll stick with what works unless I buy a carbon pre. I have no problems with my carbon and AMS.

This. They already have a blueprint for it with the mtrx studio. Just need to change the digi port to an AVB.

Re: NEW -> Pro Tools | Carbon Pre

I agree with this, he said specifically "Currently the 16 ADAT IO are disabled in AVB expansion" which means to me, they can and WILL once they solve a few bugs.

That would be fantastic.

Re: NEW -> Pro Tools | Carbon Pre

Thanks for all these great answers!

Specifically on the AVB adat one, you said 16 adat are disabled over AVB, you mean with expansion mode? IE

Carbon = 8 + 16 adat
Carbon Pre = 8

Total...

Re: Very slow to activate/deactivate DSP

I have this same issue with Sonarworks soundID plugin.

If you disable the plugins before arming/disarming the DSP, that has fixed it for me.
