How to Install Vocal Presets on Pro Tools

Pro Tools is the industry-standard DAW for professional studios worldwide. Installing Rys Up Audio vocal presets on Pro Tools is quick and straightforward — follow the guide below to get recording in minutes.

Step-by-Step Installation

  1. If you are using Waves plugins, open the Waves and StudioVerse guide for the Waves-specific guide.
  2. Download and unzip your vocal preset pack from your Rys Up Audio account.
  3. Move the .ptxp file to the correct folder:
    • MAC: /Users/[username]/Documents/Pro Tools/Track Presets/Avid
    • WINDOWS: ~/Documents/Pro Tools/Track Presets
    If the "Track Presets" or "Avid" folder doesn't exist, create it manually.
  4. Open Pro Tools and create a new Audio Track.
  5. Right-click the track and navigate to Recall Track Preset > Avid > [Your Preset].
  6. Add pitch correction: It's recommended to insert a pitch corrector like Auto-Tune or WavesTune as the first insert on the track. Set it to the key of the song. If you're not sure of the key, use our free BPM and key finder.
  7. Enjoy the sweet sound of a well-mixed vocal!

Pro Tools Preset File Types

  • .ptxp — Standard Pro Tools track preset file (most common).
  • .ptx — Older format. If you're on Windows and having issues, try changing the file extension from .ptxp to .ptx.

Adjusting the Preset to Your Voice

  • Gain staging: Pro Tools works best when your input level is around -18dBFS. Use the track's input trim or your audio interface gain to set this.
  • EQ: Open the EQ plugin in the inserts and make subtle adjustments. Every voice is different — cut frequencies that sound muddy (200-400Hz) and boost where your voice shines (3-8kHz).
  • Compressor: Adjust the threshold and ratio to match your vocal dynamics. Heavier compression for rap/hip-hop, lighter for singer-songwriter styles.
  • De-Esser: Adjust the frequency and threshold to control sibilance without dulling the vocal.
  • Reverb/Delay: These are usually on aux sends. Adjust the send levels on your vocal track to control the wet/dry balance.

Troubleshooting

  • Track preset not appearing: Make sure the .ptxp file is in the correct folder. Restart Pro Tools after moving files.
  • File extension issue (Windows): If you're on Windows and the preset won't load, try renaming the file extension from .ptxp to .ptx or vice versa.
  • Plugins missing: If the preset uses third-party plugins you don't have installed, Pro Tools will load what it can and skip the rest. Install missing plugins and reload the preset.
  • AAX format required: Pro Tools only supports AAX plugins. If a preset uses VST or AU plugins, those won't load. Check that your plugins are in AAX format.
  • Session sample rate: Make sure your session sample rate matches your audio interface (usually 44.1kHz or 48kHz).
