MIDI Controls on Instrument Tracks
The Instruments View in Pro Tools contains MIDI controls
that can be displayed on the encoders of D-Command chan-
nel strips.
To display MIDI controls:
Hold the Inserts switch and press the Sends switch in the
■
Channel Strip Mode controls section of the channel strip.
The MIDI controls appear on the channel encoders as follows:
• Encoder #2 knob: MIDI Volume
• Encoder #2 B/M/P switch: MIDI Mute
• Encoder #2 LED ring: MIDI Velocity Meter
• Encoder #1 knob: MIDI Pan
To exit display of MIDI controls:
Press another switch in the Channel Strip Mode section.

Instrument Tracks and Flip Mode
When MIDI controls for Instrument tracks are displayed on
the encoders, they can be transferred (or "flipped") to the
channel faders, allowing control of MIDI Volume or MIDI Pan
from the channel faders.
To transfer controls from the rotary encoders to the channel
faders:
Press the Flip switch that corresponds to the row of encod-
■
ers you want to transfer.
In Flip mode, Instrument track controls are transferred as fol-
lows:
• The fader on each channel controls the parameter (MIDI
Volume or MIDI Pan) that was assigned to the encoder, and
the encoder controls track Volume.
• The channel Mute switch controls the MIDI Mute function,
and the B/M/P switch on the encoder controls channel
mute.
To exit Flip mode:
Press a lighted Flip switch.
