5.1 Format Surround Monitoring 
and I/O Setup in Pro Tools

 

Pro Tools provides preset I/O Setup settings files 
for three 5.1 surround formats. The different 5.1 
format presets are:

• Film (L C R Ls Rs LFE)

• SMPTE/ITU (L R C LFE Ls Rs)

• DTS (L R Ls Rs C LFE)

You can choose a 5.1 format when you create a 
new session. You can also create and reconfigure 
multi-channel paths in the current session using 
the I/O Setup dialog in Pro Tools.

See “EQ, DYN, and INSERT” on page 49 for 
more information about Control|24 metering.

By default, Control|24 surround monitoring I/O 
configuration for 5.1 follows the SMPTE/ITU 
track layout:

L R C LFE Ls Rs

When your Pro Tools Output paths are 
SMPTE/ITU layout, audio interface outputs 1–6 
can be patched directly to the corresponding 
channels on the Control|24 Pro Tools Monitor 
Input 25-pin D-Sub. 

When your Pro Tools Output paths are 

 

 

SMPTE/ITU layout for 5.1, however, audio inter-
face outputs 1–6 will need to be re-patched, or 
you will need to remap channels in the I/O 
Setup dialog. (See “5.1 Surround Monitoring 
and Control Room Options” on page 25 for 
more information.)
