Send Status Display
When displaying all controls for an individual
sends, the Send status is visible directly in the
Mix or Edit windows.
In Assignment View, Send status is displayed as
follows:
• By default, the Send button is grey, to indicate
that it is unmuted.
• The Send button text is red when the send has
clipped.
• The Send button is blue when the send is
muted.
• The Send button is lit whenever a send’s win-
dow is open.
If you use a control surface (such as D-Control
or Digi 002) with Pro Tools, colored outlines
around sends, inserts, and outputs indicate the
current controller focus.
Inactive Sends
Sends can be made inactive. Inactive sends free
their DSP and mixer resources, while retaining
their position in track Sends View. Inactive
sends do not output audio. However, Inactive
sends retain all related automation playlists. In
addition, edits made to regions on tracks with
inactive sends can still affect the sends automa-
tion playlists.
When opening sessions, sends will automati-
cally be made inactive if the required hardware
or other resources are not available.
To make a send inactive:
■
Control-Start-click (Windows) or Command-
Control-click (Mac) on the Send assignment.

mand-Control-Option click (Mac) a send button
