Hey All,

I’m looking to multi track with the dLive using the ProTools HD Native interface.

I have already had success in multi tracking with ProTools however only up to 32 tracks. Does the install of the HD native interface “unlock” access to 32 I/O?

Has anyone had experience with this?

You should ask this in the ProTools comunnitiy…

dLive can provide 64 DANTE streams wih the old DANTE card @48kHz or the new DANTE 64 @48 or 96kHz  
and 128 channels with the DANTE 128 card

DVS can only record 64 channels with 48kHz and 32 channels with 96kHz  
and it’s possible to use a MADI card as well

there are many DAW’s out there with no limitations in channel count and hardware compatibility  
ProTools is none of them
