![]() To help alert users to issues with the Playback Engine and help guide them through what to do to fix it, the first time it is launched Pro Tools 2023.6 displays a dialog asking the user to select their preferred audio device along with instructions on how to manually change the Playback Engine. ![]() The fact that one of our most popular articles on the site shows how to fix a session when you don’t get any sound when you hit play illustrates how common an issue it is, especially for people who are new to Pro Tools. Wider Track Widths are complementary to dynamic Objects and while panning into these wider track widths will work for some material, for a variety of reasons Objects may sound better in many cases. The outputs of the Aux tracks are routed to either statically panned objects, or to a bed. The output of that folder is routed to the inputs of aux tracks within the folder. They way they work is that audio from source tracks should be routed to input of folder. ![]() It is up to user to experiment and choose a style which best suits them. These were widely adopted in the field prior to this release. The alternative to these is a second set that utilises all objects (except LFE). Dolby recommends this style as it uses up fewer objects. They come in two variants: A set that utilises as much of the bed as possible. Pro Tools 2023.6 provides Track Presets for use with Track widths from 5.0.4 through to 9.1.6. While it is not possible to send a format larger than 7.1.2 to the Dolby Atmos renderer bed, you can now use statically panned objects to break this 7.1.2 limitation. This type of track doesn’t feature a panner and the metering is provided by a VCA style single meter which shows the loudest channel only for headroom monitoring. These higher order formats offer higher spatial resolution for those working in immersive audio in VR and gaming. These features will require the upcoming Eucon 23.6 for official Control Surface Support.įor Ultimate users, Ambisonics tracks at 4th order (25 channels), 5th order (36 channels), 6th order (49 channels) and 7th order (64 channels) widths are now available. There are new ‘+’ buttons in tracks headers which create track Markers and dedicated buttons for switching the Prioritise Name or Comment Preference along with a dedicated Target button which works in the same way as its equivalent in plugin and Send windows.Ī new feature of the Panner window is that Ctrl+clicking (Start+click on a PC) on a speaker Icon Snaps the track to that speaker while maintaining height. To create a Track Marker combine Command or Control on a PC with Enter. Markers from an AAF will only be displayed on the timeline, though the colour will be reflected in the Pro Tools session.Ĭreating timeline Markers remains unchanged with a an Enter keystroke. Pro Tools sessions generated by Media Composer 2022.12 or later will import Markers from Media Composer on corresponding tracks with the same colours and comments. These 16 Marker colours are just part of the new integration with Markers in Media Composer. The colour is displayed in both the Marker icon itself and the Marker line, for example in a Folder Track Marker. In 2023.6 there are 16 colours available for the Markers themselves. Markers were uniformly yellow in previous versions of Pro Tools, though there has always been the Display Preference ‘Always Display Marker Colors’ which colours the Marker Ruler in between the Markers rather than changing the colour of the Markers themselves. As the preference is a priority, if there is no comment on a Marker the name is displayed instead. Long comments are facilitated through a text wrap feature meaning that comments don’t get truncated. This can be useful for displaying lyrics or dialogue on the timeline. This is a preference which will display any comment created with the Marker instead of the Marker name. These Folder Markers also display as a separate type of Marker in the Markers window.Ī feature which was demonstrated in the Tech Preview at NAMM was Prioritise Name or Comment. Their implementation on Folder Tracks is slightly different in that on a Folder Track a Marker line extends through all the member tracks, useful for points which are specific to those tracks only. By default Track Markers populate a lane below the track but in the new Marker View they can overlay Clips if preferred. Many people use Markers to reference dialogue or lyrics and the new Track Markers are more suitable for that use too. Old style Markers have been used for this in the past but a Marker on the track to which the Marker refers is more specific. Track Markers can be used to notate points on on the timeline on specific tracks, though they can also be attached to a Clip and move with edits.
