Output Busses

Pro Tools audio outputs—from tracks and

sends—are routed to output busses, which in turn

are mapped to Pro Tools output paths. Pro Tools

output paths are then routed to physical outputs

on your Pro Tools audio interfaces. Output bus-

ses are in addition to the 128 available internal

mix busses.

The advantage of this is that when you take a

session from one system to another, track and

send output assignments are maintained within

the session and automatically re-map to the

available Pro Tools Output channels on the new

system where possible.

Criteria for Automatically Remapping

Output Busses

Pro Tools checks for the following matching cri-

teria in order to automatically re-map the out-

put busses when opening a session from another

Pro Tools system:

•System ID

• Path name and format

• Path format only

• Path order and format

Configuring Output Busses

Before creating custom output busses, be sure to

configure the Output page with the desired

number of output paths with the correct chan-

nel widths for your needs.

To create a new output bus and map it to an output

path:

1 If necessary, on the Output page of the

I/O Setup, create an output path of the corre-

sponding channel width for the output bus you

want to create.

2 On the Bus page of the I/O Setup, click New

Path.

3 In the New Paths dialog, specify the number

of new paths you want to create, the channel

width for each path, and the path name.
