Newbie question pro tools le mixing bus

MWP · 12th February 2006, 01:18 AM

The Pro Tools TDM system have a 48 bit mixing bus.
Does anyone know how many bits the Pro tools LE 7.0 mixing bus uses?
I'm using a 002r.

There is a great article regarding mixing in the box by digidesign at the following location.
This is what prompted my question.

I believe it is 32-bit floating point for LE systems.

So are you saying, Le uses a 32 bit floating point dsp vs a 48 bit fixed in the TDM?

Thanks,

Yes, he is. Search Gearslutz or duc.digidesign.com for the many threads about 32 bit float v. 48 bit fixed.

it is simply a scaled version of the TDM mix bus. everything they describe you get just using a different number system
