The Hybrid Engine

[Cheesehead]

He's talking about PEC/Direct monitoring for post production dubbing workflows. That workflow generally has multiple Pro Tools source machines playing back which then get summed and printed to a Pro Tools recorder (dubber) system. Part of that workflow is punching in when making mix changes. When you do that you want to be able to monitor those hardware inputs (Pro Tools source machine outputs) in low latency just as you would when overdubbing a guitar, for example.

Thanks Kyle,
Sorry for giving you the wrong time, doh!



So basically as Watagushu says, with a stem or mix record channel in Hybrid mode you can drop in and out without latency jumps, with the track not in input mode?
I can see that being very useful indeed!
