No option to choose my 5.1 output path under each channel's output
I mostly work in stereo but I do the odd job in 5.1
With the older version's of PT I would just open my I/O and change my output path from "stereo" to "5.1" and everything would playback through my interface just fine. I've now upgraded to Pro Tools "Studio" and for whatever reason, none of my tracks offer up my "5.1" output path as an option. The stereo path is listed, along with a bunch of others ones, like "Cue out" "computer" "ISDN". But no 5.1! I can open old 5.1 projects and they playback fine. They still have the 5.1 path as a option on each tracks output. But opening a new AAF or creating a brand new project from scratch, I don't see the 5.1 output path on my tracks. To clarify, I do see the 5.1 output path in the I/O and have it selected but its not showing up on my tracks. What am I missing? I'm using pro tools studio 2022.05 - thanks! |

Re: No option to choose my 5.1 output path under each channel's output
Where do you see a 5.1 output path in I/O?
It needs to be both in the output section and as a bus that redirects to the output. you can always import the I/O from your working sessions into the one that isn't (import i/o setup but point to the working session and it'll extract it)

How did you have a 5.1 output path before you "upgraded" to Studio? Pro Tools Standard (pre-Studio) didn't have 5.1.
