Configuring Pro Tools
Software for PRE
Once PRE has been configured in AMS or MSS, it
can be declared in the Pro Tools Peripherals dia-
log and mapped in the I/O Setup dialog, in order
to establish communication between Pro Tools
and PRE.
Declaring PRE in Pro Tools
Each PRE must be declared in the Pro Tools Pe-
ripherals dialog.
To declare PRE in Pro Tools:
1 Choose Setup > Peripherals and click the Mic
Preamps tab.
2 Select PRE from the Type pop-up menu.
3 From the Receive From menu, choose the
source port for the connected PRE and the corre-
sponding MIDI channel to receive data. It is im-
portant to choose the correct MIDI channel if
using multiple PREs, as the software will not
know how the PREs are connected to your sys-
tem except by MIDI channel assignments.
4 From the Send To pop-up menu, choose the
destination port for the connected PRE and
MIDI channel to transmit data. Again, be sure
you choose the correct MIDI channel in multi-
ple PRE configurations.
5 Click OK.
6 Open or create a Pro Tools session.
7 Choose Setup > MIDI > Input Devices and make
sure PRE is enabled as an Input Device.
