To change audio pull up/down settings in 
Pro Tools:
1  
In Pro Tools, choose Setup > Session.
2  
From the Time Code Settings section of the

dio Rate Pull Up/Down pop-up menu.

Click OK to apply the new pull up/down rate 
to the session.
Matching Time Code Format (Drop 
Frame or Non-Drop Frame)
Pro Tools and Media Station|PT must be set to 
the same time code format (either Drop Frame 
or Non-Drop Frame).
To ensure time code format settings are 
compatible:
1  
In Pro Tools, choose Setup > Session. If the 
Time Code rate pop-up menu displays “DF” after 
the frame rate, Pro Tools is set to Drop Frame.
2  
In Media Station|PT, right-click the Record 
monitor, and choose Get Clip Info. 
If the numbers in the TC fields are separated by 
semi-colons instead of colons, the project is set 
to Drop Frame.
3  
If both time code formats do not match, do 
one of the following:
• To force Pro Tools to match the time code 
format of Media Station, select the compat-
ible time code format from the Time Code 
Rate pop-up menu.
• To force Media Station|PT to match the 
time code rate of Pro Tools, type semi-co-
lons (Drop Frame) or colons (Non-Drop 
Frame) between the numbers in the Start-
ing TC field, and press Enter.
Pull Up/Down section of the Session Setup window
Right-clicking the Record monitor
In some project formats, Media Station|PT 
can be configured for Drop Frame or Non-
Drop Frame, while the corresponding 
Pro Tools time code rate can only be set to 
Non-Drop Frame. In such cases, 
Media Station|PT sends Non-Drop time 
code information to Pro Tools, even if it is 
set to Drop Frame. The following project for-
mats in Media Station|PT exhibit this be-
havior: 23.976p NTSC, 24p NTSC, and 
720p/23.976.
