Default Re: MTRX Studio with Atmos and Stereo together

Yes you can do this.

Create a Monitor Profile composed of at least 2 Monitors configured as such:

(1) Stereo Monitor:
Sources = DigiLink 1-2 coming from Pro Tools as a standard Stereo Source.
Additional Sources can be added for DVS, Analog, ADAT, etc.
Outputs = Create a new Stereo Output Set - assigned to DA 1-2 = Monitors = TRS Outputs on the MTRX ST.

Add a second Monitor (by right clicking within the blank area of Settings > Monitor ) via Add Monitor.

(2) Dolby Atmos
Sources = DigiLink 1-12 (assuming you are using Dolby Audio Bridge and then outputs come from the Dolby Renderer using your HDX + MTRX Studio hardware. Give this a unique name such as DigiLink 7.1.4.
Outputs = Create a new 12 Channel Output using the Preset 7.1.4 group in DADman if that's the format you intend to work in. Assign DA channels 3-14 in the appropriate order for your speakers.

For Monitor 1 above - if you using only 1 source and one output and all of the faders are at unity you will simply be feeding out to attenuate via your Dangerous Monitoring system which is fine.

For Monitor 2, make sure you enable EUCON in DADman and install the latest EuControl software onto your workstation. Add an Avid Control client on the same network and then you can access the Monitoring tab within Avid Control to communicate with the Monitor Profile. Your choice regarding how you allocate between the 5 EUCON enabled monitors in DADman. Supported includes 1 Control Room + 4 Monitors/Cues.

I would set EUCON mode (right click on the Monitor) for Monitor 1 to none - so that you can't accidentally adjust it from EUCON / Avid Control.

For Monitor 2 (Atmos) - I would set that to the primary Control Room. So ->
right click on the Monitor in DADman > Settings > Monitor and Set EUCON mode to Control Room.

Hope this helps.
