PRO TOOLS

yJOG is unavailable in Pro Tools. This is a limitation of the HUI protocol used by Pro Tools. Pressing the SCRUB button puts the JOG WHEEL into Scrub Mode.

yWhen scrubbing, if you want your cursor to remain at the last scrub point in the timeline, go to Setup>Preferences>Operation>Transport and check "Edit Insertion Follows Scrub/Shuttle." This is necessary if you wish to use an edit function such as SEPARATE in conjunction with the jog wheel.

yWhen you add tracks in Pro Tools, including at the very start of a project, Pro Tools appears to lock out the track selection buttons on the MasterControl. To make the buttons functional again, hold one SELECT button and press another; then press one of the BANK or TRACK buttons.

REASON

yYou may want to lock the mixer to “Mackie Control” Mode when using Reason. To do this, right- click on the left side of the mixer and choose the appropriate option.

yOnly the bottom row of the MasterControl’s DISPLAY will show data.

yThe TRACK buttons function in Reason, but the BANK buttons are not functional

SOUNDTRACK PRO

yThe MasterControl’s < TRACK > buttons do not function in Soundtrack Pro.

yThe LEDs for the SELECT buttons do not function in Soundtrack Pro, but they will still select the channel.
