RTAS Mix Control For Mac

RTAS MixControl is a free audio plug-in that allows Pro Tools users to blend monitor mixes between audio inputs and DAW output signals during tracking, enabling performers to benefit from true zero-latency monitoring.

Focusrite's RTAS MixControl allows users of Pro Tools 9 and Focusrite's Saffire Firewire interfaces to have an extra level of control over the interface's DSP mixer. Simply insert the RTAS plug-in on any channel, and control your interface!

Without leaving the Pro Tools environment, you can control the amount of blend between inputs and outputs independently to up to three monitoring destinations - the main monitor out, Headphone 1 and Headphone 2 (on units which have a second headphone output).

Finally, you can change between the input types on up to the first four channels of your interface. In the case of the Liquid Saffire 56 (as shown here) you can select mic or line inputs on channels one and two, and between mic, line and instrument inputs on channels three and four.

Basic input metering is also provided here, showing signal present and overload indication on up to the first four input channels.

Clicking on the advanced setup button will take you through to the Saffire Mix Control window and allow you even more options to set up your cue mixes.
