Stereo Mode Processes each contiguous pair of
channels within a selected region as a stereo
track. When applied to an odd number of chan-
nels, the plug-in processes the last odd, un-
paired channel as mono, using the left channel
settings of the stereo plug-in. If you want the
last track to be processed in stereo, you must se-
lect an additional track to pair it with—an
empty one if necessary.
For example, a region comprised of two mono
tracks would be processed as a stereo track, with
the first mono track processed as the left chan-
nel and the second mono track processed as the
right channel.
Multi Mode Processes each set of three or more
contiguous channels within a selected region as
a multichannel greater-than-stereo track, with
the number of selected channels determining
the type of track. For example, five contigu-
ously-selected channels would be processed as a
5.0 track, while seven contiguously-selected
channels will be processed as a 7.1 track.
Multi mode is available only for certain
plug-ins, such as Dynamics III.
AudioSuite Processing
Preferences
Before you begin using AudioSuite plug-ins, use
the Preferences dialog (Setup > Preferences >
Processing) to configure default AudioSuite op-
tions according to your needs. These options in-
clude the default dither setting, a dither on/off
checkbox and the AudioSuite buffer size option,
as well as TC/E options.
Processing Preferences page
AudioSuite
Buffer Size Selects the size of Pro Tools memory
buffer for processing and previewing AudioSuite
plug-ins. Choices are Mini, Small, Medium,
Large, or Jumbo. In general, choosing a smaller
buffer speeds up AudioSuite previewing func-
tions. Choosing a larger buffer speeds up Audio-
Suite processing of audio files.
