QuickStart System Test
This section takes you through a basic system
test to make sure that hardware, software, and
connections are all configured and functioning
properly. The test employs the Demo Session
that is included on the Pro Tools Installer disc.
To begin:
■
Launch Pro Tools and open the Demo Ses-
sion, or any available session.
To play a session:
1

Control Room Monitor section, using the
Main Monitor Level knob to start with the vol-
ume low enough to avoid any ear or speaker
damage.
2
Press PLAY on the Control|24 Transport.
3
Adjust the main volume using the
Main Monitor Level knob.
4
To stop playback, press STOP (or press the
Space bar of your computer keyboard).
If you weren’t able to play and hear the session,
