Description
Overview
Developed for Avid by Digital Audio Denmark, the Pro Tools | MTRX is a high-performance, multi-format I/O system engineered for the most demanding immersive post-production and music studios. This professional-grade interface serves as both a Pro Tools HD Interface and an integrated monitor section, providing a seamless bridge between your DAW and your studio monitoring environment.
The MTRX is designed for scalability and precision, offering a modular architecture that allows engineers to customize their I/O based on specific project needs. By combining exceptionally high-quality analog conversion with massive routing capabilities, it ensures a transparent signal path and total control over complex signal flows.
Key Details
- Modular I/O Architecture: Supports a variety of interface options, including high-end analog input, output, and microphone preamplifier cards to tailor the hardware to your studio’s requirements.
- Integrated Digital Connectivity: The base unit comes equipped with 16 AES I/O and a Coaxial MADI I/O pair for extensive digital integration.
- High-Speed Connectivity: Features 2 mini DigiLink ports for direct, low-latency connection to Pro Tools HD systems.
- Advanced Monitoring: Includes Pro|Mon 2 Eucon monitoring, allowing for deep integration and control via Avid Control Surfaces.
- Remote Management: Utilizes the DADMan Application, enabling comprehensive remote control and configuration from either a Mac or PC.
- Massive Routing: An integrated router provides flexible signal patching, reducing the need for external patch bays and simplifying complex routing matrices.
Use Cases
- Immersive Audio Production: Ideal for Atmos and surround sound mixing where high channel counts and precise monitor control are critical.
- High-End Recording Studios: Perfect for facilities requiring transparent analog-to-digital conversion and scalable preamp options for large ensembles.
- Post-Production Houses: Streamlines the workflow between Pro Tools and external hardware via MADI and AES, ensuring synchronization and signal integrity across multiple rooms.
- Hybrid Workflows: Bridges the gap between traditional analog outboard gear and a digital DAW environment through its modular card slots.
Installation
The Pro Tools | MTRX is a rack-mountable unit designed for professional studio integration. Installation involves mounting the unit into a standard equipment rack and connecting it to the Pro Tools HD system via mini DigiLink cables.
Once physically installed, the system is configured using the DADMan software. This application allows the user to map I/O, configure the internal router, and set up monitoring paths from a computer, eliminating the need for tedious front-panel menu diving.
Compatibility
- DAW Support: Specifically optimized for Avid Pro Tools HD systems.
- Control Protocol: Fully compatible with Eucon for integration with Avid Control Surfaces.
- Configuration Software: DADMan Application is compatible with both macOS and Windows PC.
- Digital Formats: Supports AES and MADI protocols.
