Platform Specific Issues
TDM/RTAS on Pro Tools|HD
There are some specific issues to consider when using an RTAS plug-in in recording
mode on a Pro Tools|HD system. First of all, an audio buffer latency is introduced in the
RTAS version, but not in the TDM version. So for the best live guitar experience, it is
preferred to use the TDM version with zero latency instead of RTAS.
Secondly, all RTAS plug-ins are automatically bypassed in recording mode, unless an
TDM plug-in is inserted on the insert slot before the RTAS plug-in.
Enabling Vintage Amp Room RTAS in recording mode (Pro Tools 7 or higher):
● Insert a TDM plug-in (such as the “Trim” plug-in) on your track
● Insert Vintage Amp Room RTAS on an insert slot after the TDM plug-in
Please see your Pro Tools reference guide for more info.
Output Volumes on Different Platforms
The VST/AU versions of Vintage Amp Room has a theoretical maximum output volume of
+3dB. The TDM/RTAS version, due to the fixed-point format of Pro Tools|HD, is limited to
a maximum output of 0dB.
