RTAS or HTDM Altiverb?
I found this info on the Digidesign support faq about HTDM vs RTAS
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: In Pro Tools v5.1 and higher I can use RTAS Plug-Ins on a TDM system. Isn't HTDM the same? A: No. There are certain limitations to using RTAS Plug-Ins on a PT 5.1 TDM system. In particular: RTAS Plug-Ins can only be instantiated on disk tracks, not on aux tracks or on master faders. Even on disk tracks, all RTAS Plug-Ins must be inserted before TDM Plug-Ins. RTAS Plug-Ins do not support sidechain inputs on 5.1 TDM systems. RTAS Plug-Ins must have symmetric I/O (i.e. 1 in, 2 out is not allowed) HTDM Plug-Ins do not have any of those limitations. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm running PT|HD2 6.7 on a G5 OS 10.3.8. Am I right in reading from the FAQ that you cannot use RTAS plugins as an AUX send FX, but only HTDM/TDM? I can't seem to find any other info to justify buying the HTDM version since it's quite a bit more $$$ than the RTAS version. Can anyone recommend why I should shell out the extra dough for HTDM? Cheers, Jason |
