Loop Record, Quick Punch, and Other Record Modes
Some supported controllers provide dedicated keys for enabling special Pro Tools recording modes.
On other units, commands are available in EuControl software to let you cycle through available
modes. (Some modes are available on all Pro Tools systems; other modes require Pro Tools HD.)
To enable alternate Record modes:
1 Hold the Control key on your computer keyboard and press the REC key (for example, on
MC Control, press the REC key in the Transport section). On-screen, the Pro Tools Transport master
Record switch shows the current mode (P indicates QuickPunch, a Loop arrow appears when in
Loop Record mode, and so on).
2 Press Control+REC again to cycle to the next available recording mode.
Additional Recording Features
MC Control and other units with a Touchscreen give you direct access to many additional controls re-
lated to recording workflows. From the Home screen (press the Home Soft Key, at the bottom left of
the screen/keys), press the Transport key to be able to use factory Soft Keys for settings such as pre/post
roll.
MC Transport provides six Soft Keys that can be assigned to recording-related functions. In combina-
tion with the SHIFT key, there are a total of 12 available Soft Key assignments. (For an example, see
“Customizing Controls in EuControl” on page 11.)
