Common Tasks with Pro Tools LE

This chapter is designed to give new users specific meth-

ods for accomplishing common tasks with your

Pro Tools system.

Creating a Pro Tools Session

You can use the Mbox 2 Micro to create new Pro Tools

sessions or open and play back existing Pro Tools ses-

sions. With Mbox 2 Micro, you can import audio and

MIDI for play back, and also play back virtual instru-

ments (such as Digidesign’s own Xpand! instrument

plug-in).

To create a Pro Tools session:

1 Verify the hardware connections for the

Mbox 2 Micro (see “Making Hardware Connections” on

page 34).

2 Launch Pro Tools.

3 Choose File > New Session.

4 In the New Session dialog, set the session parameters

as needed, or leave them at their default settings. (For

details on New Session settings, see the Pro Tools Refer-

ence Guide.)

5 Choose where you want to save your session.

6 Type a name for your session.

7 Click Save.

For the most complete information on using

Pro Tools, see the Pro Tools Reference Guide.

Ref-

erence Guide
