Rolled out with D-Control is the new Pro Tools 6.4 software, which should be available sooner (maybe at Frankfurt). Most new changes are only for HD but a later issue promises to support MIX systems.
New features include:
- Auto Delay compensation (both plug-in and routing delays)
- An option for having fader gain at +12 dB over 0 dBfs (currently fixed at +6 dB)
- TrackPunch (record-enable and punch on the fly)
- An Input button on each channel (to switch between input and playback)
- Enhanced plug-in organization through a new folder system
- Enhanced clip indication (clips will show on channel plug-in plates, on the show/hide list and on the D-Control surface)
- Absolute track numbering (forcing an optional absolute track number before each track name)
- An extra transport bar embedded at the top of the Edit window
- Input and Record Enable alert lights next to the REC button on the transport
- The ability to redefine current feet/frames position
- Support for 23.976 timecode rate
