Closing the I/O Setup Dialog
You can click Cancel at any time to close the
I/O Setup dialog. When you click OK, Pro Tools
checks several settings for routing validity (to
prevent feedback loops). If there are any over-
lapping or invalid settings, you will be required
to correct them before the I/O Setup dialog will
close. For more information, see "Initializing
I/O Setup" on page 85.
