What's Fixed in Pro Tools TDM 6.9.1cs1?

Pro Tools TDM 6.9.1cs1 for Windows XP contains the following:

Fixed: Legacy Peripherals Attached to a 192 I/O or a 96 I/O (with Firmware Version 4.3) Would Exhibit Incorrect Gain at Their Inputs (Item # 59048)

  • If you have a 192 I/O or 96 I/O, and the interface firmware version is 4.3, you need to run the DigiTest firmware updater. If your 192 I/O or 96 I/O has firmware version 3.0, incorrect input gain on legacy peripherals will not occur, and you will not be able to update the firmware. This does not apply to the 96i, which does not have a legacy port.

To verify and update the firmware version:

  1. Launch the DigiTest application
  2. Click on the Firmware tab
  3. Make sure the peripheral information for the appropriate card slot is being displayed, and press "Rescan" if necessary
  4. Do one of the following:
    • If the firmware version in the selected peripheral is 4.3, lower the gain on your audio monitors and press "begin update."
    • If the firmware version is 3.0, you have the correct firmware and you do not need to do anything.
    • If the firmware version is less than 3.0, update the firmware to version 3.0. (This is unrelated to the legacy peripheral bug.)

Fixed: External Devices Could Not Embed Audio Into The AVoption|V10 SDI Output Stream During Pro Tools Playback (Item #65082)

  • External devices could not embed audio into channels 1-4 of the SDI stream because Pro Tools was embedding digital silence into the stream. Please note that this is only fixed for Pro Tools output – a fix for Media Station|PT is expected in the future.

Who Should Use Pro Tools TDM 6.9.1cs1?

This update is recommended for all Pro Tools TDM 6.9 users and contains fixes in the following areas:

  • Legacy peripherals only if your 192 or 96 I/O has firmware version 4.3
  • Using the video SDI output from AVoption|V10 when playing from a Pro Tools session.
Important: Pro Tools TDM 6.9.1cs1 is provided as an interim "customer support (CS)" release to address the issues described. While our testing has not shown these changes to introduce other problems, this version has not been fully qualified by Digidesign.
