Default Locking an application

I'm experimenting with running Pro Tools and Logic on the same computer. Is there a way to keep the S6 locked to Pro Tools when I switch to Logic?

Press "Setup" on the Automation Module when you have ProTools open and it should lock it.

To be specific, this setup button will only lock the transport section functions for the EUCON app focused when enabled. The rest of the surface will switch to the focused (foreground app).

Thanks. Alternatively is there a way of stopping the S6 from seeing Logic or stopping Logic from connecting to Eucon?

Thanks but no good. Just can't figure it. Shame you can't lock an application to the S6.....

Reviving the question - I'm assuming you still can't lock the surface to Pro Tools exclusively?

Pretty sure there’s a preference for this somewhere. Not in front of it now but can dig for it later today.

That’s correct. Currently when application switching (Command+Tab) to DADman, Logic, or any other EUCON app the console switches entirely with the exception of the monitor section and transport sections, which can be bound/locked. We essentially need the same functionality that EuControl currently offers which is the granularity to designate the entire surface in addition to monitor and transport sections.


best,


Jeff

By always being in Layout mode, we've been avoiding this annoyance. The layout stays no matter what (and since our layouts are mostly Pro Tools, it is "locked" in a way.)

Still would be good to be able to lock all surface modules to an application.
