Assigning the IP Address for your Computer and Pro Tools | MTRX II
If using multiple MTRX II units (MTRX II and MTRX units can be used in conjunction on the same network), connect them one at a
time to complete the network setup. If using a single MTRX II, ensure it is connected to the network and proceed. You have the option
of using fixed IP addresses or IP addresses assigned via DHCP. If using DHCP, it is recommended that MTRX II be connected to a
Router rather than rely on a self assigned 169.254 IP address.
Automatic IP address
You must have a network with a DHCP server to allocate the IP addresses.
To use an automatic IP address:
1 Configure your computer IP address to DHCP using the Mac System Preferences or the Windows Control Panel.
2 Choose Settings > Device List, then right-click the MTRX II and choose Network Settings.
3 Configure each MTRX II in turn to use DCHP.
4 When you are done, you can connect more than one MTRX II to the network (MTRX II and MTRX units can be used in conjunction
on the same network), and they will all appear in the DADman Device List.
Network Settings
When using IP Audio Dante with one or more MTRX units and EUCON peripherals (such as S1, S3, Dock, S4, or S6), use a dedicated
Network Interface for IP Audio Dante and connect all other network devices to a separate Network Interface (for MTRX/DADman,
EUCON, local network, internet, and so on). Using separate Network Interfaces is especially important when streaming audio over
Dante.
In order for MTRX to function properly, the router must be correctly configured in DADman software.
