Re: D command ES with PT BASIC question
There's actually six soft keys on the D-Command, where user can assign functions (on multiple pages). I have Preview, write to selection, write to end, focus strip on/off etc... accessible all the time. Very convenient!

Re: D command ES with PT BASIC question
Thanks to everybody all those great infos !
Is there any way to test a D-Command just «*out of the box «* without being connected to a PT ultimate ? When the unit is turned on only some of the switches turn on (and it is written «*offline*») meaning ... if I cant see it in front of me and test it ... i take some risk ))anyone would have a solution (to be able to test a unit ) Thanks !!

Re: D command ES with PT BASIC question
Tuomas is right. I may be overlooking some aspects of the D-Command in my short review.
Regarding the test, you should be able to go into "Vegas" mode which will tell you if every light and fader motor is working. I don't remember the keys to enable that mode, but it is computer-independent.

Re: D command ES with PT BASIC question
Hey, you should be able to run the Vegas tests in offline mode as it has nothing to do with Pro Tools.
Vegas mode: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=61d2r0ZVRxc https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L8vE-PdFUj8 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LBfKb84GKFY To enter Vegas mode: Press UTILITY > Test > LED > Vgas (Vegas). More info here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/59....html?page=143 Best of Luck

Re: D command ES with PT BASIC question
Cut to 2022- I have a client who has an old D-Command (no X-Mon). He just obtained the 2021 PT Standard license. I tried to walk him through the menus remotely today- on a Mac Mini. In Setup he has the peripherals section, with either EUCON or Legacy Surface Controllers as an option on this menu. No matter which option he chose, after the scanning stopped, his D-Command did not respond. One time, he received a warning about not having the proper drivers. Would it be possible to obtain these D-Command drivers somewhere and run this surface on his standard PT configuration? Or is it still only limited to Ultimate software? Please let me know. Thanks.

There are no D-Command drivers. The functionality is baked into Pro Tools, which is part of the reason those old control surfaces still work with current versions despite the lack of active support for some years now. An ultimate license is required...
