003 & 003 Rack Getting Started Guide28
Pro Tools Hardware Settings
Pro Tools lets you set the default sample rate
and clock source for your system, and configure
the digital inputs on the 003 or 003 Rack.
Default Sample Rate
The Sample Rate setting appears as the default
sample rate when you create a new session. (This
setting is available in the Hardware Setup dialog
only when no session is open.)
To change the default Sample Rate:
1 Choose Setup > Hardware.
2 Select the sample rate from the Sample Rate
pop-up menu.
3 Click OK.
Clock Source
The Pro Tools Hardware Setup dialog lets you se-
lect the Clock Source for the system.
Internal If you are recording an analog signal di-
rectly into Pro Tools (or using an external ana-
log or digital device for effects), you will usually
use the Internal setting.
External If you are transferring material into
Pro Tools from an external digital device, or if
you utilize a common house clock signal, you
will synchronize Pro Tools to the digital device
or common signal. The external clock source
corresponds to the connector on the back of the
003 or 003 Rack that is receiving your clock sig-
nal: S/PDIF (RCA), Optical, or Word Clock. If
you are using an optical device, you also need to
set the Optical Format (ADAT or S/PDIF).
You can change the sample rate when
creating a new Pro Tools session by selecting
a different sample rate in the New Session
dialog. See
the Pro Tools Reference Guide for
details.
Hardware Setup dialog
You can use only one pair of S/PDIF inputs
(either RCA or Optical) at a time. At
96 kHz, it is recommended that you use the
S/PDIF (RCA) port.
Note that S/PDIF (RCA) output is still
available when S/PDIF Optical is selected.
