5 - Applications Pro Tools For Pro Tools compatibility, the US-2400's HUI emulation mode is available. Each bank of eight faders represented by a US-2400 MIDI port may be assigned as a HUI Controller in Pro Tools by accessing the Peripherals window under the Setups menu-from that menu, click on the MIDI Controllers tab. 1 Put the US-2400 into HUI emulation mode (factory default): With the unit in standby mode (POWER pulsing), press and hold the master SEL key and the AUX 1 key. Then press the POWER key to enter HUI emulation mode. This setting is saved through power cycles until manually changed. 2 Configure three HUI MIDI controllers , each one assigned to a different US-2400 MIDI port as shown above. Control details Generally the US-2400's surface controls function as expected, controlling their named parameters in Pro Tools. For example: faders, MUTE keys, SOLO keys Encoders These default to control of the channel Pan parameter. Also available are Aux sends 1 through 5 (the maximum number of Aux sends supported by the HUI protocol is five). Aux sends are available directly by pressing the appropriate AUX key. Each bank of 8 faders on the US-2400 is represented to the computer as one MIDI port. The leftmost fader bank containing channels 1 through 8 also includes the master section controls. 3 Assign the ports as follows: Port 1 represents faders 1 through 8; Port 2 represents faders 9 through 16; Port 3 represents faders 17 through 24. Note that Port 1 includes the master section controls. NOTE Later versions of Pro Tools do not install the HUI control surface plug-in by default. It may either be found on the Pro Tools installer CD in a separate folder or on the Digidesign Web site. and transport controls control those parameters in Pro Tools. Exceptions and specific details follow: Use the CHAN key to enter the MIDI Controller mode ("MIDI Controller Mode" on page 12). Pro Tools supports meters via the HUI protocol in MTR mode. 16 TASCAM US-2400 Owner's Manual
