Pro Tools Mode with 003
In Pro Tools mode, the 003 can be used as a con-
trol surface for your Pro Tools sessions.
003 is in this mode when the 003 unit is con-
nected to a computer and Pro Tools LE software
is running.
If Pro Tools is running and no Pro Tools session
is open, the unit normally displays “Open or
create a new session.” When a session is being
launched, the display changes to “Loading a ses-
sion.”
When a Pro Tools session is open, the unit mir-
rors the on-screen controls. 003 faders, transport
switches, rotary knobs, and switches control the
corresponding elements in Pro Tools. You can
also use 003 MIDI ports as you would those on a
standard MIDI interface.
In Pro Tools mode, the Monitor section and
MIDI I/O ports are available with a session open
or closed.
To put 003 in Pro Tools mode:
1 Make sure the 003 unit is properly connected
to the computer and powered on.
2 If Mute is disabled (unlit), enable Mute by
pressing the Monitor Mute switch so that it is lit.
3 Launch Pro Tools LE and open or create a
Pro Tools session.
Saving a Session
You can invoke the Save Session command from
003.
To save the current session:
1 Press the Save switch. The switch flashes to in-
dicate that another press will result in a Save.
2 Do one of the following:
• To save the session, press the Save switch a
second time.
• To cancel the save, press the ESC switch.
If no session is open and a Workspace
browser is open and being used for
auditioning an audio file, the unit
displays “Working.”
