Reviews

Owner Insights

We analyzed real musician discussions from forums and Reddit to find what players love, question, and tweak about Avid Pro Tools MTRX II Thunderbolt 3 Module.

Features and functionality

  • The Avid MTRX Studio requires a separate Thunderbolt 3 option card, which installs in a slot covered by a small metal plate between the Dante and DigiLink ports.

    Source

User experience

  • Owners report long wait times, up to five months, for the Thunderbolt expansion card, leading some to cancel orders and use the built-in Dante functionality instead.

    Source

Comparisons

  • Users recommend the Avid MTRX Studio over the Apollo x16 for Dolby Atmos setups, citing its built-in Dante and lack of need for an SPQ card as advantages.

    Source

Use cases and applications

  • For those setting up Dolby Atmos studios, utilizing Kali Audio IN-8's for surrounds and IN-5's for height channels is a popular configuration with positive feedback.

    Source

Software and compatibility

  • The Pro Tools integrated renderer offers more than Logic's, but an external renderer is recommended for professional environments for features like MP4 export and loudness referencing.
