Naming a new MIDI device
AMS refers to one or more files with the suf-
fix “.middev” in the directory Root/Li-
brary/Audio/MIDI Devices for Manufac-
turer and Model names. Pro Tools installs
two such files that contain information for
many commercially available MIDI devices,
“Legacy Devices.middev” and “Digidesign
Devices.middev.” If the Manufacturer or
Model names for any of your external MIDI
devices is not available in the AMS Manu-
facturer and Model pop-up menus, you can
add them by editing any of the current
.middev files in any text editor (such as
TextEdit).
