system. 

 
 

Important Latency Information

 

Mix 51 uses the host CPU to perform 
the surround panning and mixing.  It 
introduces latency that is equivalent 
to one buffer of audio based on the 
Pro Tools H/W Buffer Size.  The 
latency in seconds can be calculated 
with the formula (Buffer 
Size)/(Sample Rate).  For example, if 

the Pro Tools H/W Buffer Size is set 
to 512, the latency is 512/48000 = 
10.6 ms at 48 kHz sample rate.  To 
set the H/W Buffer Size, open the 
Playback Engine dialog and set the 
control labeled H/W Buffer Size. 
 

Important Pro Logic II Monitoring 
Information

 

Mix 51 provides a stereo LtRt 
downmix that is compatible with 5.1 
Dolby Pro Logic II decoding systems.  
It is very important that the Pro Logic 
II decoder be set for Movie Mode.
