defined instruments. Selecting an instrument in
the list displays that instrument’s properties in
the Properties section of the window.
Properties Section
The Properties section lets you edit information
for new instruments, or instrument currently se-
lected in the Instrument list.
When a previously defined instrument is se-
lected in the Instrument list, the Properties sec-
tion changes to reflect the properties of the se-
lected instrument.
To define an instrument with MIDI Studio Setup:
1 Choose Setup > MIDI > MIDI Studio.
2 Click Create.
3 In the Instrument Name field, type the name
of your instrument, and press Enter.
4 Set a manufacturer and model for the new de-
vice from the corresponding pop-up menus. If
the Manufacturer and Model pop-up menus do
not provide a name for your particular device,
select None.
5 From the Input pop-up menu, select the input
port on your MIDI interface that is connected to
the MIDI Out of your instrument.
Some MIDI Interfaces will not properly load
or unload their drivers unless you quit and
re-launch Pro Tools. Check the documenta-
tion that came with your MIDI interface for
more information.
