Chapter 4: Pro Tools IO Control SoftwarePro Tools IO Control is an interface control application made for Mac and Windows. Featuring a single window design, and multiple tab interface for quick access to all device and system settings, Pro Tools IO Control makes software control of Pro Tools Quartet easy. The software works the same on Mac and Windows; this section shows Mac screens.Input TabInput Tab Device Icon & ID Button - A device icon and ID button is placed adjacent to each row of parameters to identify the hardwareunit to which the row belongs. By clicking on the ID button, the front panel of the corresponding hardware unit illuminates. Eachhardware unit is assigned a Peripheral Prefix (A–Z, found in Pro Tools IO Controlʼs Device Settings tab window) which is displayed on the ID button. Analog Level - Use this menu to select microphone, instrument, or line input. Soft Limit - Use this menu to engage Soft Limit. Soft Limit is Apogee’s proprietary analog process for taming transients beforeA/D conversion. By gently rounding transients in a transparent manner, it’s possible to maximize level BEFORE the A/D conversion stage. Soft Limit is most effective with signals with large transients such as drums, percussion and plucked instruments.Soft Limit may not be the appropriate choice for signals such as bass or organ. Input Level - The gain of each input is controlled with these software knobs. The gain level is indicated in the value box belowthe knob. Analog Input Meter - This meter displays the level of the analog input after A/D conversion. Group On/Off - Use this to group the gain setting of inputs so that the controller knob on Pro Tools Quartet or one softwaregain knob controls both input gains simultaneously. If a gain offset is present between inputs when Group is set to On, this offsetis preserved. Phase - Check this box to reverse the polarity of the input signal. Under certain circumstances, when two mics are used on onesource, reversing the polarity of one mic may result in a fuller sound. For example, when miking the top and bottom of a snaredrum, a fuller sound is obtained when the polarity of the bottom mic is reversed. 48 V/Phantom Power - Engage this button for 48 volts phantom power on the XLR connections. Condenser mics require phantom power to operate.Chapter 4: Pro Tools IO Control Software10
Output TabOutput Tab Device Icon & ID Button - See the description in “Input Tab” on page 10. Analog Output Meter - This meter displays the level of the analog output before D/A conversion, in the range -48 to 0 dBFS. Analog Out Format - This menu sets the format of the analog outputs:Line: all six analog outputs are configured as line outputs; monitor functions such as level control, Mute, Dim and Sum to Monoare disengaged.Stereo: Outputs 1–2 are configured as speaker outputs (with all monitor functions available) while outputs 3–6 are configuredas line outputs.2 Speaker Sets: Outputs 1–4 are configured as two pairs of stereo outputs. Switch between the stereo pairs with the SpeakerSelect buttons (or using the top panel Touchpads).3 Speaker Sets: All six outputs are configured as three pairs of stereo outputs. Switch between the stereo pairs with the SpeakerSelect buttons (or using the top panel Touchpads).5.1: All six outputs are configured as speakers outputs, suitable for connection to a 5.1 speaker system. Speaker Out Level - When Analog Out Format is set to Stereo, 2 or 3 Speaker Sets or 5.1, this knob controls the speaker outputlevel. Headphone Level - This knob controls the output level of the right side headphone output. Mute - Click M to mute the speaker (or headphone) output. Pro Tools Quartet’s top panel Touchpads may be set to engage Muteon the Speaker outputs, the headphone outputs or both at the same time. See “Device Settings” on page 13. Dim - Click D (for Dim) to lower the speaker (or headphone) output level by 15 dB. This function is a convenient way to brieflylower the playback volume in the speakers or headphones in order to hold a conversation without completely muting the output.Pro Tools Quartet’s top panel Touchpads may be set to engage Dim on the Speaker outputs, the headphone outputs or both atthe same time. See “Device Settings” on page 13. Sum to Mono - Click Σ to sum the left and right channels of the speaker (or headphone) outputs to mono. At many points of theproduction process, this function is useful to check mono compatibility. For example, when recording with a stereo pair of mics,it’s always a good idea to sum both channels to mono and check for unevenness in the frequency range caused by phase cancellation and reinforcement of particular frequencies. If the sound changes significantly or sounds hollow when summed to mono,this may indicate phase issues caused by a less than optimal mic placement.When mixing, it’s also a good idea to check mono compatibility. Beyond questions of phase, any masking caused by overlappingfrequencies is most easily heard when listening in mono. Try starting a mix with Sum to Mono engaged – once you have something that sounds good, then disengage Sum to Mono and revel at the beautiful stereo mix you’ve created!Pro Tools Quartet’s top panel Touchpads may be set to engage Sum to Mono on the Speaker outputs, the headphone outputs orboth at the same time. See “Device Settings” on page 13.Chapter 4: Pro Tools IO Control Software11
Mixer TabMixer Tab Device Icon & ID Button - See the description in “Input Tab” on page 10. Pan - This rotary knob pans the input signal between the left and right sides of the Pro Tools IO Control mixer’s stereo output. Input Level Fader - This slider sets the level of the input signal in the Pro Tools IO Control mixer’s stereo output. Meter - This bar graph style meter displays the pre-fader input level. Input Level Value Window - The Input Level fader value is displayed in this window. Fader values between 6 and -48 may bedirectly entered. Solo - This button mutes all other channels whose Solo buttons are not engaged. Mute - This button mutes the input channel. Software Return Fader - This stereo input channel provides level control, metering, and mute/solo functions for the signal fromthe software application containing playback. Match your recording software application’s mixer output and the Software Returnmenu selection. In most cases, the recording software mixer output and Pro Tools IO Control’s Software Return will be set to 1–2. Mixer Master - This is the level control and meter for the mixer’s output.Chapter 4: Pro Tools IO Control Software12
Device SettingsDevice Settings Device Icon & ID Button - See the description in “Input Tab” on page 10. Peripheral Prefix - Use this menu to assign a letter prefix (A–Z) to each peripheral device displayed in the Devices Sidebar. Theletter prefix is included in all graphic representations of the peripheral as well as I/O labels in Pro Tools IO Control and Core Audio compatible applications. Touchpad Assignment - Use these menus to select the parameter controlled by the user assignable Touchpads:Mute Outputs - To mute the speaker and headphone outputs, assign one of the user assignable Touchpads in Pro Tools IOControl to the desired mute function.Dim Outputs - The Dim function lowers the output volume by 15 dB.This function is convenient when you want to briefly lower the playback volume in the speakers or headphones in order to holda conversation without completely muting the output.Sum to Mono - The Sum to Mono function is used to examine phase relationships on stereo tracks. When it is engaged, phaseerrors become more noticeable. Toggle Headphone Source - Used to switch the Headphone output between Out 1–2, Out 3–4 and Mixer.This function is especially useful for digital DJs to switch the headphone output between the House output (sent to Out 1–2) anda cue output (sent to Out 3–4). Clear Meters - The Clear Meters function will remove held peak and over indicators on software and OLED meters when PeakHold or Over Hold (in the System Setup tab window) is set to Infinite. Lock Home View - When Lock Home view is checked, the OLED display doesn’t jump to the Detail view when the Controllerknob is turned. If Lock Home view is not checked, the OLED display shows details for the selected input or output when the Controller knob is turned. Encoder Push Assignment - Use this menu to select the action when clicking the top panel Controller Knob.Chapter 4: Pro Tools IO Control Software13
Output RoutingOutput Routing tabIn the Pro Tools IO Control Output Routing tab, route Mixer 1 (or Mixer 2) to Line 1/2. If Analog Out Format is set to 2 or 3Speaker Sets, route Mixer to all the analog outputs in use, as shown below.Mixer routing to analog outputsChapter 4: Pro Tools IO Control Software14
