The following table lists the audio playback recording and voiceable track limits of each type of pro tools hd system playback and recording voices refer to the number of unique simultaneous playback and record tracks on your system total voiceable tracks refers to the maximum number of audio tracks that can share the available voices on your system mono tracks take up one voice ste reo and multichannel tracks take up one voice per channel voice limits are dependent on the ses sion sample rate and the number of dsp chips dedicated to the system s playback engine pro tools hd systems can open sessions with up to 256 audio tracks but any audio tracks beyond that system s voiceable track limit will be automatically set to voice off p.49

Pro tools hd systems provide up to 160 auxiliary input tracks and a total of 128 internal mix busses these systems also provide up to 10 inserts and 10 sends per track depending on the dsp capacity of your system pro tools hd systems also support up to 128 instrument tracks 256 midi tracks 128 vca master tracks and multiple video tracks p.49
