Sends
Pro Tools lets you insert up to ten sends (A–E
and F–J) on each audio track, Auxiliary Input, or
Instrument track.
Sends provide the following features:
• Sends can be set as pre- or post-fader.
• Send level, pan, mute, and LFE controls can be
configured to follow Groups.
• Send level, send mute, and send pan (for ste-
reo and multichannel sends) are fully autom-
atable. See “Automating Sends” on page 915.
• Send controls can be displayed and edited
from the Mix or Edit windows, or in their own
output windows.
• Sends can be assigned to available output and
bus paths (main or sub-paths), in mono or ste-
reo, or any of the supported multichannel for-
mats for surround mixing.
• Each send can have multiple assignments (for
example, to available output and bus paths).
To be audible in Pro Tools, sends must be re-
turned to the mix through an Auxiliary Input,
audio track, or Instrument track. The sends can
then be monitored and processed through an
Auxiliary Input (or Instrument track), recorded
to audio tracks, and bounced to disk. (Bouncing
and mixdown are explained in Chapter 43,
“Mixdown.”)
Assigning Sends to Tracks
To add a send to a track:
1
Make sure Sends View is enabled in the Mix or
Edit window (see “Views in the Mix and Edit
Windows” on page 836 for information).
2
Click the Send selector on the track and
choose a path from the pop-up menu.
