When I want to open the http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/en_US/Error_Message/en363971 application, there is an error saying that your audio is configured with a unsupported audio buffer size. Please choose 32,64,128,256,512,1024 or 2048. Because the protool does not start up, I can not enter the setup of the Mbox2. It there an other way to change the settings? I allready downloaded the latest driver. Thank you very much for your help.

January 6, 2010 | Mixing, Optimize Pro Tools, Pro Tools, Tips Anytime you open up a Pro Tools session you need to ask yourself this question: Am I going to be recording, or editing/mixing? The answer to this question http://therecordingrevolution.com/2010/01/06/optimize-pro-tools-the-playback-engine/ will determine how you adjust some crucial settings in the software to optimize your Pro Tools http://www.wikihow.com/Allocate-More-Memory-to-Pro-Tools system. Let's take a brief look today at tweaking the Playback Engine in order to get the most out of your computer while recording. Reducing Latency If you are using Pro Tools to record for example (perhaps you're sitting down to take the One Song One Month Challenge and you want to lay down your main guitar parts) then you want as little latency pro tools as possible. What is latency you ask? It's the time it takes for your audio to be converted to digital information (in your audio interface), run through your software, then turned back to an analog signal coming back out of your audio interface. The result…an annoying echo or delay effect that throws off your timing. Some interfaces have a workaround for this on the actual unit itself (the Mbox 2 Mini for example uses the Mix knob to counteract this). But pro tools 10 one thing you can do in all Pro Tools systems is to reduce the Hardware Buffer Size. To do this, simply navigate to the Setup menu and choose Playback Engine. If you have something like 1024 samples in the H/W Buffer Buffer Size drop down, then click on it and choose the lowest sample number available to you. It might be 128 or maybe even down to 32. Choosing a lower buffer size will noticeably reduce your audible latency and make recording much better. On the flip side if you need to edit or mix, you'll probably have error messages pop up with such a low buffer size. Simply change it to the highest option available (1024 is good). Your House In Order While you're at the Playback Engine settings you should also confirm that your RTAS Processors drop down is set to the appropriate option (this depends on your computers CPU of course). And as far as the CPU Usage option, I recommend you don't go much higher than 85% as you need your CPU to also efficiently run your operating system in the background as you are recording in Pro Tools. Nice And Easy Voila! You have quickly optimized Pro Tools using the Playback Engine settings. Little tweaks like this go a long way in ensuring a smooth and enjoyable Pro Tools session. Enjoy!

this Article Home » Categories » Computers and Electronics » Software » Media Software ArticleEditDiscuss Edit ArticleHow to Allocate More Memory to Pro Tools Community Q&A Pro Tools is digital audio software made by Avid Technology that can be used on either the Macintosh or Microsoft Windows operating systems. Professionals in the audio industry use Pro Tools for editing and recording in films, television and music venues. Depending on the Pro Tools functions you use, the number of plug-ins you have, and the number of processors in your computer, you may experience lag time or run low on memory. Here are some steps to use to allocate more memory for Pro Tools tasks. Steps 1 Shut down all other applications. To ensure Pro Tools is running at maximum capacity, close down all other open applications on your computer. This frees up RAM and any other available resources that can be allocated to Pro Tools. 2 Customize your settings in the Playback Engine window. In the Playback Engine window, you can customize settings such as your CPU usage limit, the RTAS (Real Time AudioSuite) processors, the hardware buffer size, and the DAE (Digidesign Audio Engine) Playback buffer size to free up memory. 3 Open the Playback Engine window. From Pro Tools, click on "Setup" and select Playback Engine. Change the CPU usage limit. In the Playback Engine window, click on the drop-down menu next to CPU Usage Limit in the HD TDM Settings section to modify the amount of memory you are allocating to Pro Tools. Pro Tools will allow you to set allocation at a maximum of 85 percent if your computer only has one processor. Modify the number of RTAS processors. In the Playback Engine window, click on the drop-down menu next to RTAS Processors in the HD TDM Settings section to modify the amount of processors you want to use for Pro Tools allocation. The RTAS Processors setting allows you to allocate more memory for Pro Tools by utilizing your computer's multiple processors, if applicable. This setting works with the CPU Usage Limit settin
