Chapter 3: Using Your System 35
▲ The directions given here explain how to
add a MIDI device to OMS. This setup as-
sumes you have already configured your MIDI
interface, if you are using one. You must con-
figure the MIDI interface before configuring any
OMS devices.
To configure an OMS device:
1 Make sure that the peripheral and/or
MIDI interface is turned on and connected
properly to your system.
2 Launch Pro Tools.
3 From the Pro Tools Setups menu, choose
the OMS MIDI Setup command. The OMS
MIDI Setup dialog appears, allowing you to
select the serial port(s) that your MIDI in-
terface is connected to. After you have cho-
sen the desired port(s), click OK.
4 Launch the OMS Setup application.
5 Choose Studio > New Device.
6 In the MIDI Device Info window, choose
the Manufacturer and Model names for
your device (if available) and name the de-
vice using the Name field.
7 Uncheck both Is Controller and Is Multi-
timbral.
8 Check both Receives and Sends MIDI
Time Code.
9 Click OK to close the MIDI Device Info
window, and save this document as your
current OMS Setup document.
10 In the OMS Setup window, connect the
peripheral to the correct OMS port location
or MIDI interface. To do this, drag the pe-
ripheral’s icon over the icon for the desired
port or MIDI interface. Arrows connecting
the peripheral to and from the desired port
or MIDI interface signify that a connection
has been made.
