In Pro Tools, create new audio tracks or
auxiliary inputs to correspond to each
channel of digital source audio. Route the
connected digital sources to them using
the Input Selector pop-up on each
Pro Tools track.
4
Use the Output Selector of each Pro Tools
track to assign its output to an ADAT chan-
nel.
5
Insert the ADAT tape you want to record
on into your ADAT. Make sure that it is for-
matted to the same sample rate as the cur-
rent Pro Tools sample rate.
6
Set the ADAT’s clock to Digital.
7
On the ADAT, record enable the ADAT
destination tracks you want to record to.
Make sure that the same ADAT tracks are
not configured as Pro Tools input sources
or a feedback loop will occur.
8
In Pro Tools, adjust the output level of
the source audio using the track output
level faders. This will help you prevent
overloading the ADAT’s inputs.
9
Press the Record and Play buttons on
your ADAT.
10
Begin playback of the digital sources
connected to your Pro Tools Audio Inter-
face. The audio is recorded to the ADAT.
11
To stop recording, press Stop on your
ADAT.
Configuring Sync
Synchronized transfers between Pro Tools
and ADAT have special configuration re-
quirements for clock, time code and other
sync-related connections. These configura-
tion requirements vary with the devices be-
ing used.
Configuring Windows
Computers for Sync
All that is required to configure
Pro Tools/ADAT sync on Windows com-
puters is that your sync peripheral be cor-
rectly connected, installed and configured
to operate on your computer (refer to your
MIDI interface or other sync peripheral’s
installation instructions). Once properly
connected, your device’s sync/MIDI ports
will be listed in Pro Tools and available as
sync sources/destinations.
Configuring Macintosh
Computers for Sync
For Pro Tools/ADAT sync on Macintosh
computers, Pro Tools requires OMS. OMS,
developed by Opcode, is supplied with
Pro Tools and with all Opcode MIDI inter-
faces and sync devices.
The following section shows how to con-
figure OMS for a single type of sync periph-
eral (the Cooper DataSync2). Though it is
not within the scope of this User’s Guide to
provide OMS configurations for all possible
peripherals, the section that follows pro-
vides some general guidelines for configur-
ing a device so that Pro Tools can commu-
nicate with it.
