Hi Brian & Slau,

The Mouse does not work for my self when changing audio inputs or "audio output paths" for any given track.
Here is what works for me every time!
step #1 Find the audio output path you want to change, and then get a "contectual" menu on it "Vo shift m". usually it comes up already on the "output sub menu" but since your in a contextual menu its very easy to navigate to what you want. step #2 now just use VO and navigate to the output choice you want to assign to the tracks and when you find it Step #3 hold down "Option" and hit return and bang "the Silver Bullet"! LOL All outputs will be which ever out put was selected when you hit Option and return Alternatively You can just hit "VO space bar" on the audio in or output path and it will say "menu 5 items interface" then use Vo to navigate to the desired choice..


If any body can tell me how to get "command Option" working to assign ins or outs incrementally "1 2 3 4 ect. they will receive the coveted "PT prospector award"!!

May be the mouse works better in the "Snow Belt"! LOL

When I try the mouse it just says "inter face 48 items" and just hovers there in limbo land no matter what kind of VO tricks i try!!!

Talk later

Hey Brian,

I had meant to respond to this message but somehow got sidetracked.

The I/O setup table isn't accessible yet but the rest of the window is. Here's what you can do (and you'll need to do it for both the input and output tabs):

Select all with Command-a and then press the delete button. You'll probably get an alert but you can just delete these paths left over from the other system.

Then press the "Default Paths" button. This will create the proper input paths (or output paths, depending upon which tab you're in).

When you return to the session, it's likely that your outputs will all say "No Output." when you're focused on any track's output assignment, route the mouse to the voiceOver cursor. Now you'll need to perform this next task with a physical mouse button or track pad. Hold down the Option key and click. Use VoiceOver to navigate to your first stereo bus (analog 1-2 or whatever) and press Return. this will globally set all outputs to the same path.

HTH,

Slau

Hi all,

Some of this is just my lack of knowledge in the software in general, but firstly, in setup and I/O, I'm having problems navigating and I think there are parameters that are inaccessable. I'm just working on a project imported from a HD rig, and in the mix window, the session is still showing up the output and input paths from that HD rig. When I try to change them, the I/O paths for my 003 I'm working with at the moment aren't showing up, and I thought that I would be able to get them to show up in the setup and I/O window. They have shown up to an extent, but when I click OK, ProTools tells me I haven't set all necessary parameters for the output path or which ever I'm trying to adjust.

As a separate issue, I'm using a borrowed 003 on a Macbook pro from my college, and it has drivers for an M box mini installed. I would have thought with the 003 connected and recognised, when I open a new session, any track in it would have the 003 input and output paths available for routing, however this doesn't seem to be the case. It only seems to be showing one pair of stereo outs or their mono left and right, and the same for input, just one stereo pair, and an S/PDIF stereo pair. So even working from a new session and not just in my imported session from the HD system I can't seem to establish all the routing paths from and to the 003. In fact, though I am now thinking that the I/O setup window isn't working for me, I actually got the right analogue inputs and outputs for the 003 when in the imported HD session, but only had the few stereo pairs and their mono equivalents mentioned above.

Strange stuff, apologies if I'm asking questions that are in the users mannual, but I haven't made it all the way through the general ProTools one, and only have borrowed the 003 in the last few days.

Maybe its just that the I/O window isn't fully accessible yet and the other problems are to do with drivers or something.

Thanks for reading,
Brian.
