Configuring Your Pro Tools System
After you have connected your system and installed Pro Tools software, you are ready to start
up and configure your Pro Tools system.
Starting Up or Shutting Down Your System
To ensure that the components of your Pro Tools system communicate properly with each
other, you need to start them in a particular order.
Start up your Pro Tools system in this order:
1 Lower the volume of all output devices in your system.
2 Turn on any external hard drives. Wait approximately ten seconds for them to spin up to
speed.
3 Turn on any control surfaces (such as Command|8).
4 Turn on any MIDI interfaces, MIDI devices, or synchronization peripherals.
5 Turn on your computer.
6 Launch Pro Tools or any third-party audio or MIDI applications.
