Chapter 3: Configuring VENUE and Pro Tools

Configuring Pro Tools System
Settings
After confirming connections, you can config-
ure your Pro Tools system settings. The default
settings usually provide optimum performance.
However, you may need to make changes de-
pending on the scope of your session and your
hardware configuration.
To configure your Pro Tools system settings:
1
Choose
Setup > Playback Engine.

For HDx and VENUE MADI only, if you want
to record more than 48 tracks simultaneously
you must increase the number of available
voices.
From the Number of Voices pop-up menu, select
the number of voices in the next tier of voices
above the number of tracks you are recording,
with the maximum amount of DSP. For exam-
ple, if you are recording 80 tracks, choose
96
Voices (maximum number of available DSPs).

From the DAE Playback Buffer pop-up menu
select the highest available buffer size. Memory
requirements for each setting are shown at the
bottom of the Playback Engine dialog. If
Pro Tools needs more memory for the DAE Play-
back Buffer, it will prompt you to restart your
computer.

Click
OK
to confirm and close the Playback
Engine dialog.
