002/Triton midi setup problems......

[woodbeatz]

i have a triton and an 002 system and i am trying to setup the midi configuaration.
i want to have the play button on pro tools trigger the triton to play so i can get clean loops, but i cant seem to get them to link up....

anybody have a similar setup or can anyone give me some tips?
thanks

Do you have AMS configured for your 002 and Triton?

Actually, I may be jumping the gun... I was assuming that you're running OSX, but looking back on your first post, you don't mention your current OS version that you're running PT on.

AMS (Audio MIDI Setup) is the OSX equivalent of OMS for OS9 (but much better). If you're not familiar with either, basically it's the middleware that tells your computer what kind of MIDI hardware you have attached to your computer, where it's attached, and how to communicate with it.

I'd suggest reviewing the PT manuals for complete details on how to set this stuff up, as it's a bit much to review here. Doing a search on the DUC for either AMS or OMS (depending on which operating system you're running) maybe helpful as well.

I'm at work right now, but when I get home I'll check my system and tell you what to do. I know exactly what you are trying to do because I do the same myself. It's so simple it will make you kick yourself, but I just can't recall from memory exactly what menu's to go into so I'll have to be in front of my system. Check back later though and I'll have your issue solved, I promise.
