Chapter 8: Common Tasks with Pro Tools LE 51
To create an Instrument track and configure it for
recording:
1 Choose Setup > MIDI > Input Devices and make
sure your input device is selected in the MIDI In-
put Enable window, and click OK.
2 Choose Track > New and specify 1 Mono In-
strument Track, then click Create.
3 Select View > Mix Window > Instruments to dis-
play the MIDI controls for the Instrument track.
4 At the top of the Instrument track in the Mix
window, click the track’s MIDI Input selector
and assign the device and channel to be re-
corded, or leave it set to All.
5 Do one of the following, depending on the
type of instrument you are using:
• If you are using an instrument plug-in,
click an Insert selector and insert the plug-
in on the Instrument track. The track’s
MIDI output is automatically assigned to
the instrument plug-in.
• If you are using an external MIDI device,
click the track’s MIDI Output selector (at
the top of the Instrument track) and assign
the device and channel to receive the MIDI
output (the choices will vary depending on
the device).
