Hello everyone, i'm new on PD ... just wonder if any of you can give to me any tips how to get from Pro-Tools separate tracks/channel to PD.

Pro tools is connected trough an external sound card to a mixer consolle so i can get different instruments on different track/channels. What i'm trying to do is switching on/off a DMX light according with the sound.

I know it sound pretty difficult for a beginner, but i got Arduino and PD all ready running i just missing the last bit ... how to get the tracks from pro-tools

Have a look of this and you can have an idea of what i'm trying to do

Thanks
Lorenzo

you could try it with the jack audio connection kit. the jack server enables you to route audio via virtual audio ports between audio applications that are clients of jack server.

You didn't mention what your platform was?
If you're on Mac, look at this thread:

If as danijel says you are on mac http://jalpuna.com/archives/2010/11/route_system_au.shtml that's how I route it using soundflower.
If it helps, yesterday I was using a 003 (Firewire) with a singer and used that for the mics etc and a UCA202 (USB interface) for Pd, routing it as an insert in Pro Tools, easy peasy.
