Chapter 11: Pro Tools Mode with 003 97
003 displays the plug-in controls across all chan-
nel strips. Controls are assigned to the rotary en-
coders. Switched controls (such as Master Bypass 
or Phase Invert) are controlled by Channel Se-
lect switches.

controls, press the Left and Right Page switches.
To cycle through all the inserts on a channel:
 Hold the Insert switch and repeatedly press 
the track’s Channel Select switch. 
To bypass a single plug-in:
1 Press the Insert switch (Channel View section) 
to put 003 in Channel View.

2 Press a lit Channel Select switch to display the 
inserts for the corresponding track.
3 Press the Plug-in Master Bypass switch.
In mixed mode situations, where some plug-ins 
are bypassed and some are not, pressing the 
Master Bypass switch changes all plug-ins to by-

plug-ins out of bypass.
Pan/Send Workflows in Channel 
View
When the Pan/Send switch is enabled (lit), 003 
identifies channels with sends assigned to them 
by illuminating their Channel Select switches. If 
no sends are present for the current bank of 
channels, no Channel Select switches will be lit.
In this view, you can display sends, adjust send 
levels, and toggle pre- and post-fader operation.
To display the sends on a track:
1 Press the Pan/Send switch to put 003 in Chan-
nel View.
2 Press a lit Channel Select switch. 
3 Do one of the following:
• To display Sends A–E, press the Left Page 
switch. 
– or –
• To display Sends F–J, press the Right Page 
switch.
The LCD display for the first channel strip 
shows track pan position for that track. (If the 
track is a stereo track, you can toggle between 
left and right pan by pressing the Meter switch 
immediately to the right of the rotary encoders.)
The LCD display for channels 3–7 shows the 
send names. Their rotary encoders control the 
levels for the corresponding send.
The Left or Right Page switch flashes when 
an additional page is available.
Hardware I/O inserts cannot be bypassed in 
Pro Tools, so the Plug-in Master Bypass 
switch has no effect on them.
