Opening the CS-80V in Pro Tools for Mac OS X
 TDM systems: the CS-80V should be loaded to a stereo audio track. Opening as
HTDM is done through the TDM menu, as a HTDM plug-in is used exactly like a TDM
plug-in.
 Other systems: the CS-80V can be loaded on a mono audio track (which becomes
stereo after the insertion) or stereo.
We can now make the CS-80V sound by playing with the mouse on the virtual keyboard.
8.3.4 Connection to a MIDI node
So that the CS-80V can play information coming from a MIDI track, it must be associated
to a MIDI node through the appropriate menu.
We can so control the CS-80V through a command keyboard (see the Pro Tools manual
for the connection of this type of device).
8.3.5 Saving presets
When the session is saved, the state of the CS-80V is saved as is, even if the
programming corresponds to no preset. For example, if you were working on a preset
«BassOne» on which you had changed settings (without saving them as «BassTwo»), the
next time you open the song, the CS-80V will load the preset «BassOne» plus the
changes.
The «Librarian Menu» in Pro Tools can of course be used with the CS-80V like any other
plug-in. Nonetheless, we recommend that you use the internal menu of the CS-80V. This
is for several reasons:
 Presets saved in this manner can be used in any other sequencer, making the
exchange between users easier.
 They will be compatible with the different versions of the CS-80V that will appear
later on.
