Preferences for Remote 9-Pin
Deck Emulation Mode
Pro Tools provides the following preference set-
tings to configure Remote 9-Pin Deck Emulation
Mode options.
Remote Mode Section
Ignore Track Arming Sets Pro Tools to ignore in-
coming track arming (record enable) com-
mands. This is useful if you are using a master
controller to arm tracks on other machines, but
you do not want to arm tracks in Pro Tools.
Set Servo Lock Bit At Play (Tamura Support) En-
able this option when using a Tamura synchro-
nizer to control Pro Tools in Remote mode to
minimize lock-up times during recording.
Allow Track Arm Commands in Local Mode En-
ables a supported third-party paddle device to is-
sue the following Pro Tools track commands
while in Local mode:
• Input monitoring
• Record Enable
• Record Safe
• Solo
• Solo Mute
See Chapter 7, "Using a Paddle Device in
Local Mode."
Punch In Frame Offset Sets an offset in frames to
compensate for punch-in timing advances or
delays.
Punch Out Frame Offset Sets an offset in frames
to compensate for punch-out timing advances
or delays.
38 MachineControl Guide
Delay After Play Command Sets the amount of
time (in frames) for Pro Tools to wait after re-
ceiving a Play command before starting the au-
dio engine. This can prevent false starts when
locking to synchronizers that are not fully sup-
ported by Pro Tools.
See "Selecting Full Remote Mode or Re-
mote/LTC Chase Mode" on page 36 for
more information.
