Selecting Multiple Tracks:
There are several ways to select multiple tracks in a Pro Tools session:
• From surface channels, press and hold one Chan Select button while you select all additional channels. This method allows
for selecting non-adjacent channels. Track selection is reset if you cross over HUI banks; it only works for tracks contained
in the same HUI bank.
• Select the first channel from the surface or touch-screen. Hold SHIFT on the keyboard, and select the last channel you wish
to select. This will select a “range” of adjacent channels. This method allows the range to span across all channels.
• You can select multiple non-adjacent tracks from the surface strips by holding down the Command (Windows) key while
you select. This also works when using the touch-screen for channel selection.
Automation
Automation modes in Pro Tools can be accessed on a per-channel basis directly from any EUCON control surface.
To cycle though all the Automation modes in Pro Tools:
• Read / Write Modes: “Y” button
• Trim Mode On/Off: “N” button
The surface channel strips use LEDs to display the current Automation status:
Wheel Edit Modes
There are several region editing tasks that can be done using the wheel:
• Trim Selection Head
• Trim Selection Tail
• Trim Region Head
•Trim Region Tail
• Move Region
• Slip Audio within Region
The resolution of these controls are based on the Nudge Value set in your Pro Tools session. Nudge Value Increment /Decrement
keys come pre-programmed on the same page as the Wheel Edit modes in the default Pro Tools app-sets.
Some time should be spent getting accustomed to these modes and nudge value setting in order to achieve the desired results.
The Wheel Edit modes can be assigned to any Soft-Key. The EUCON commands for these are located in the “Left Edit Section”
when programming Soft-Keys.
Channel Strip LED indication of Automation status
Status Description
Off No LED
Read Green blinking
All Write modes Red blinking
Trim mode Blinking is offset from other
modes (inverted)
When changing Automation modes, all standard Pro Tools modifiers are still applicable. This makes changing multiple
channels at one time much quicker.
MC Pro users with the High-Resolution Jog Wheel will achieve best feel and performance with the Jog Wheel Speed set
between 1–5.
