Pro Tools HD with RedNet
RedNet 5 allows any Pro Tools HD system to integrate seamlessly with the Dante network.
Here, the Avid OMNI is used for control room monitoring and local input signals. It is connected
to one of two RedNet 5 units via Loop Sync. Note that the second RedNet 5 does not require a
Loop Sync connection as it receives its clocking signal over the network. The two RedNet 5 units
provide up to 64 channels I/O to/from the Pro Tools HD system and RedNet. Any number of RedNet
interfaces could be connected to the switch. In this scenario, three RedNet 4 units are providing 24
channels of remote controlled mic preamps, a RedNet 2 unit provides 16 channels of line level I/O,
and RedNet 3 allows the connection of up to 32 channels I/O of ADAT signals, even at 96 kHz.
