CONNECTING A ZED TO PRO TOOLS 9 ON A MAC
1. Connect your ZED mixer to your Mac via USB and power on the mixer.
2. With Pro Tools 9 installed, open Audio MIDI Setup on your Mac. PT9 should have created a Pro Tools
Aggregate I/O folder in the Audio Devices list. The ZED interface should appear as USB Audio CODEC in the
list along with other audio devices in your system. Tick Use to enable the device in PT9. You may need to also
tick Resample in order for the audio data settings to be compatible with your PT9 session.
3. Run Pro Tools 9 and create a new session with
at least two audio tracks. Open the SETUP/
Playback Engine window and select Pro Tools
Aggregate I/O as the Current Engine. Click OK.
4. In PT9 click SETUP and then I/O. Select Output from
the menu and the devices available should appear in a box
labelled PTAI/O (Pro Tools Aggregate I/O). Here you can
create a new output path if one doesn’t exist, name it
(here it’s called ZED Stereo OUT) and tick it to enable.
The output path can be set as stereo or mono channels as
is required.
5. Still in I/O Setup, click the Input tab. Again the input
sources should appear for enabled devices in Pro Tools
Aggregate I/O. Create a new path for the inputs and name
as you prefer. Here we have a stereo input named ZED-
Stereo Input. Note that mono channels can use one
channel of a stereo input path. Make sure the path is
ticked and click OK.
6. Select the inputs and outputs for your tracks in your
session. Here the input for mono Track 1 is selected as
the Left channel from the ZED USB interface. The track
outputs can either be routed to the ZED directly or to a
master bus in Pro Tools and then to the ZED.
7. Finally check the interface and settings are working by recording some audio from the ZED mixer to PT9 and
then play the audio back to the ZED afterwards. Always be wary of audio feedback loops with bi-directional
interface connections which can cause high level audio feedback if signals are routed back to themselves either in
the mixer or in the software system.

If you use Pro Tools 9 and want to connect to your ZED console using a Mac computer, here are
some notes:
