Monitoring MIDI Instruments with 003
Family Interfaces
If you have a MIDI instrument that has analog
outputs, you can connect it to your 003 family
interface to monitor its output.
To connect your MIDI instrument for monitoring in
Pro Tools:
 Connect the MIDI instrument’s audio output
to a Line/DI (003 Rack+) input, or to a DI or An-
alog Input on the back panel of the 003 or 003
Rack.
Using a Footswitch
The footswitch connector on your 003 family
interface lets you use a footswitch pedal to con-
trol either playback start/stop or recording
punch in/out. Both QuickPunch audio punch-
in and punch-out and MIDI punch-in and
punch-out recording are supported.
The footswitch connector is designed specifi-
cally for instantaneous (momentary) on/off
pedals with a 1/4-inch TS connector. Continu-
ous on/continuous off pedals can also be used,
but may result in unexpected behavior.
To use a footswitch control:
1 Connect a footswitch to the footswitch con-
nector on the back panel of the 003 family inter-
face.
2 Launch Pro Tools.
3 Choose Setup > Hardware.
4 Select Record Punch In/Out or Playback
Start/Stop.
5 Click OK.
The 003 Rack+ only has one MIDI Out
port. However, MIDI Out 2 may still appear
in Pro Tools. When using the 003 Rack+
with Pro Tools, only use MIDI Out 1. Select-
ing MIDI Out 2 will produce no MIDI out-
put information.
