328XD MIDI Controller Bank
To access the MIDI Controller Bank, press the currently illuminated BANK SELECT switch. The faders
should react accordingly, yet no BANK SELECT switch will be illuminated. Feel free to switch in and out of
this bank as often as you wish. Whenever you return, Pro Tools control will be at your fingertips.
Using the 328XD for extended Pro Tools control
NOTE:
Only TDM systems can take advantage of Plugin and Aux send control
Enter the 328XD Tape Machine Setup menu, select Custom Machine and configure the console as
follows:
Timecode src: MTC FF: C# -1
Status: Slave Locate 1: PTL+
MIDI: Note On Locate 2: PTL -
Play: E -2 Shift Key: OFF
Stop: Eb -2 MIDI Channel: 15
Record: F -2 Frame Rate: 30
Rewind: C -1
With these settings, pressing LOC 1 moves forward between Fader & Pan control, Plugin control, Fader
and Aux 1 send, Fader and Aux 2 send, Fader and Aux 3 send, Fader and Aux 4 send, Fader and Aux 5
send, and back again. LOC 2 moves backward between these settings.
Rewind and Fast Forward buttons become ‘bank shift’ controls. Pressing Fast Forward on the 328XD
moves channel banks to the right 16 at a time. Rewind moves them to the left 16 at a time.
NOTE:
Play, Record and Stop Commands only work while Plugin control is activated. Using the MMC
panel on the 328XD in ‘Note On’ mode disables MMC transmission from the 328, but the
Timecode display remains active.
Transmitting MIDI Timecode to the 328XD
Under the Session Setup window in Pro Tools, check ‘MTC To Port’ and select the 328XD as the device.
MIDI Timecode will now be routed to the 328XD.
