What are the recommended settings to use PT with BH?

BaseHead is designed to be the boss of PT, so it’s only recommended to have BH do all the file copying and SRC.
So turn ALL PT Import options OFF like so:

Using “Follow Session Folder” ON in BH is also highly recommended to copy all audio to the Audio Files folder for the current Pro Tools Session.  We could write a book why this is best practices when working.  Just trust us….this is the way it was designed to work.  8)

The only exception to the above is for people that are cutting long ambiances.   In this case we suggest turning “Reference File When Possible” ON or tagging file referenced using “Command+T” so you can work faster with long files.  When finished with the reel make sure to do a Save Session Copy since the files were referenced.
