  • Studio Monitor for ProTools, like FCP?

    Posted by Brad Bussé on April 28, 2009 at 8:50 am

    I have a ProTools 7.5.x (I think, soon to be updated to 8.x) setup that’s currently on a new Mac Intel quadro-core. The setup is currently in a nice 5.1 studio with good sound insulation that is using a PC monitor as the primary screen, and the second DVI output from the Mac is out to a DLP projector (the color wheel is a 6). Is there a way to set the second display to a false studio monitor, like Final Cut Pro does, or is there a way to utilize the ProTools cards installed to output to an accurately synced image to an external monitor, akin to the way that an AJA or BlackMagick card works in FCP?

    Also, I’m looking for recommendations for cheap, professional, and reliable DLP projector bulbs. Are bulbs for newer LCD projectors cheaper to replace than DLP projector bulbs?

    You should post your first question on a Pro Tools forum. As for bulbs, you can find vendors at projectorcentral.com. You can also try looking on eBay, but pay very specific attention to a seller’s rating & their return policy before you bid.
