01v (original) MIDI control of PT LE 6.4
 

* OS X 10.3.x
* mBoX / Pro Tools LE 6.4
* Yamaha 01v (original)
* Edirol UM-2

I seem to be having a hard time getting my 01v to control (at least to begin with) the channel faders in Pro Tools.

I had a good read of <http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/may0...oolsnotes.htm>, the 01v manual and the MIDI Control Surfaces guide but I'm having a little difficulty putting it all together.

What I've done

* MIDI hardware is connected
* Audio MIDI setup :
Tx Ch 1-16, MIDI Beat Clock (off), MIDI Time Code (ON)
Rx Ch 16, MIDI Beat Clock (off), MIDI Time Code (ON)
General MIDI (OFF)
MIDI Macine Control (ON)
* PT Peripheral Setup
CS-10 | Tx Port (01v) | RX Port (01v) | # Channels (16)

Control Surfaces Guide tells me that data is in the form

BF cc vv (where cc = switch / wheel and vv is vv=value)

So Fader 1 should be : BF 40 (0-7F)

So I figure the last thing to do is actually set up the 01v itself - its here I get a bit lost.

* Its set to Tx on Ch 16

* I set the 01v Remote (page 3) fader 1 parameters to

BF 40 FAD END

What the! It now works for some reason! OK, here stands an intro guide for the 01v (probably reinventing the wheel)!

An afterthought - how hard is it to REVERSE things so I can control the 01v from the on screen faders?

Cheers, Antony.
