Pro Tools, you select each interface and config-
ure its controls separately. The controls vary

Identifying Audio Interfaces
(Pro Tools 6.0 Only)
If you have multiple audio interfaces of the
same type connected to your system, before you
make audio connections to them, you should
confirm the identity of each interface.
To identify audio interfaces in your system:
1 Choose Setups > Hardware Setup.
2 From the Peripherals list, select an audio inter-
face connected to your system.
3 Select the Identify option, located in the lower
left corner of the Hardware Setup dialog. This il-
luminates all the LEDs on the front panel of the
selected audio interface.
4 Make a note of which interface in your studio
setup corresponds to the identified interface.
5 Repeat the above steps for each additional au-
dio interface in your setup.
To configure audio interfaces:
1 Choose Setups > Hardware (Pro Tools 5.1.3) or
Setups > Hardware Setup (Pro Tools 6.0).
2 Choose the Audio Interface you want to con-
figure from the Interfaces pop-up menu
(Pro Tools 5.1.3) or select it in the Peripherals
list (Pro Tools 6.0).
3 In Pro Tools 5.1.3, click Other Options to re-
veal the interface controls.

face, as shown below.
