Pro Tools Pre-setup<br />
Configuring Pro Tools<br />
▶ Please refer to your Pro Tools documentation on how to configure Pro<br />
Tools and the AVID Pre Guide.<br />
▶ In software, click Pro Tools Pre Setup.<br />
▶ In the window that opens, find the section titled '4081 Remote Mic<br />
Control' (below) and select a MIDI Port from the drop down menu,<br />
different to that of the DAW MIDI Ports.<br />
When configuring Pro Tools, please bear this in mind.<br />
The 4081 connects via ipMIDI to Pro Tools over the network/ethernet.<br />
Refer to the DAW Control section on page 25 for information on<br />
how the <strong>Genesys</strong> connects to your computer. DAW Control and<br />
Mic PRE both use the same ipMIDI driver and network addresses,<br />
therefore the DAW Control settings apply to both.<br />
The first 4081 unit needs to have the USB / RS485 switch on the rear of<br />
the unit set to USB (plus a USB cable from the unit to the PC / Mac).<br />
Subsequent units in the daisy-chain, need to have this switch set to<br />
RS485 (plus the RS485 cable needs to connect these units together).<br />
You can control up to 64 MIC Channels/16 Racks.<br />
▶ A single MIDI Port has 16 channels. 8 MIC channels can be controlled<br />
from a single Pro Tools (MIDI) PRE channel eg. a 16 Channel console<br />
with 4 x 4081's<br />
▶ The configuration would be as follows:<br />
In Pro Tools peripherals/MIC Preamps window<br />
▶ for the #1 Type : PRE<br />
Receive From/Send To: ipMIDI port 1<br />
channel 1<br />
This controls 2 x 4081 racks – Rack 1 and Rack 2<br />
i.e. Channels 1 - 8<br />
▶ for the #2 Type : PRE<br />
Receive From/Send To: ipMIDI port 1<br />
channel 2<br />
This controls 2 x 4081 racks – Rack 3 and Rack 4<br />
i.e. Channels 9 – 16<br />
...and so on for any additional racks... etc.<br />
