Batch convert Pro-Q instances to zero latency?

Hey y'all!

I had my default Pro Q set to Natural Phase mode and I've used it all over a couple projects this way, I suspect that while it does not use as much CPU as Linear Phase mode, it probably still uses more than zero latency. It's a huge project, is there any way to batch or bulk switch all instances of Pro Q in the project to Zero Latency mode?

I'm also curious to if this would change the sound of the overall project, probably at least 50 instances of Pro Q throughout

Hi Alchemy,

Unfortunately you cannot change the processing mode for multiple instances simultaneously. The best option I can think if is inserting 2 instances of Pro-Q, one with zero latency and one with linear phase. In Pro Tools it's easy to bypass a plug-in on the same slot of different tracks.

Another option would be to duplicate the channnels, and set up an AB test with bussing.

Cheers,

This would be a nice option for a future release. It would be handy when moving from tracking to mixing stages in a production.
