Using Other MIDI Control Surfaces
If you do not have any of the currently sup-
ported MIDI control surfaces, you can use a
third-party control surface (such as the JL Coo-
per FaderMaster) and program its controls to
function like a JL Cooper CS-10. This allows you
to use any MIDI control surface that allows re-
programming of its MIDI protocol. You can
then access Pro Tools with that MIDI protocol
and adopt the CS-10’s functional personality.
The following information assumes you have a
familiarity with MIDI protocol, including MIDI
System Exclusive (sysex) messages.
For more information on reprogramming your
control surface, refer to its documentation, or
contact the manufacturer.
Fader and Switch Data
Control surface commands for the CS-10 are on
MIDI channel 16. These messages are all of the
form:
BFh cc vv
In this case, cc means switch or wheel number,
and vv means value.
Table 2 on page 78 give values (vv) for each
fader or switch.
