Default Re: Playing Mac Audio Through MTRX Studio

Hey!

Trying to find a solution to this problem and seeing if there are any updates + maybe adding more to it....

I have a MTRX which is feeding my Trinnov D-Mon via AES 16. I am currently using analog outs on the Trinnov, but would like to run analog outs on the MTRX (I don't think this complicates anything, but let me know if it does)

1. Any way I can have Mac system audio via DVS feed thru to the same AES outs, at the same time, as Pro Tools HDX. Right now I have to open dadman and re-route what feeds my AES outs every time I switch. (I would like to be able to listen to Apple Music Atmos at the "same" time as mixing Atmos via Pro Tools.

2. Any way to have my Mac system audio that runs via DVS synced to MTRX automagically?

Thanks y'all!

Greetings,

Can't you simply turn on Summing for this monitor which contains HDX and DVS sources?

I haven’t setup any monitor profiles yet. I’ll definitely look through some how-to’s. But just clicking around it looks like that’ll be perfect! Thanks!

Is there a quick way to get the sample rate of dvs to sync with mtrx and/or the system sample rate to NOT default to 192?

Thanks again.

Are you using Dolby Audio Bridge with Pro Tools and the renderer? Or - are you using any other apps that use the Core Audio driver of HDX?

Yes. I am using the audio bridge and outputting hdx or DVS (so I could previously playback Apple Music and pro tools atmos simultaneously)

Nope- no other apps using hdx to playback.

Also, I just setup a monitor profile and it’s working just as I asked. So, thank you.

If you open Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup/ and look at HDX - you can toggle the Sample rate to 48kHz and it should stick next time you use Pro Tools (HDX classic or hybrid) then quit back to Core Audio -> it will return to 48kHz.

If not using Core Audio (you are as presumably you are outputting from DAPS -> to HDX to get to your MTRX), you can disable the Avid Audio Server and it will never switch rates.

best,


Jeff

Ok got you. Thanks!

This still won’t keep DVS synced to the MTRX when opening 44.1k stereo sessions and then opening 48k sessions, correct? - now it just won’t randomly switch back to 192k?

I’ll mix a stereo 44.1k session, then also do the 48k atmos. So, I’m frequently switching back and forth.

Just watched your “coffee & consoles” and that helped understanding more of the capabilities of DADman. That’s a GREAT help. Thanks for that as well.

Glad to hear it. Yes, sadly DVS is pretty dumb. Even though you are typically always locking DVS to an external Leader / Master network clock, it doesn't know how to automatically change its Sample Rate to say - match the (MTRX or MTRX Studio) Leader. We've all asked Audinate for this functionality and it's still manual for now.

best,


Jeff
