In the Hardware Setup dialog, you can set the
default sample rate (if no session is open) and
clock source for your system, as well as access a
range of controls specific to each type of audio
interface connected to you Pro Tools system.
Default Sample Rate
The Sample Rate setting appears as the default
sample rate when you create a new session. (This

it.

High Sample Rates and Expanded Pro Tools|HD
Systems
With 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz sample rates, as
many as four Pro Tools|HD cards can be used.
Any additional cards (up the total system maxi-
mum of seven cards) will switch to Inactive
mode. The cards and any attached peripherals
will become active again when the sample rate is
set to 96 kHz or lower.
For more information about configuring your
Pro Tools|HD system, see the Pro Tools|HD
User
Guide.
You can change the sample rate when
creating a new Pro Tools session by
selecting a different sample rate in the
New Session dialog.
