Using the Multi Button (Pro Tools Only)
The Multi button on the front panel of the
Mbox can be assigned to easily execute several
functions in Pro Tools including (but not lim-
ited to):
•Add Track
• Start/Stop Record
•Tap Tempo
• Locating to Next/Previous Marker
• Save Session
You can use the Multi button to do these and
other common tasks with a single button in-
stead of using on-screen menu commands. By
pressing the Multi button two different ways
(Press and Release, Press and Hold) you can per-
form two functions with one button.
Using the Multi Button
In the Hardware Setup dialog, Pro Tools lets you
set three Multi button parameters for your Mbox
using the “Multi Button Function” pane. (You
can also launch the Driver Control Panel from
here).
The Multi Button Function includes the follow-
ing options:
Press and Release Displays the options avail-
able for Press and Release mode.
Press and Hold Displays the options available
for Press and Hold mode.
Duration Gives four time duration options for
Press and Hold button.
