Pro Tools Configuration

 

Communication between Control|24 and 
Pro Tools is configured from within the Ether-
net Controllers page of the Pro  Tools Peripherals 
dialog. 

 

To configure Pro Tools for Control|24:

 

1  

 

Choose Setup > Peripherals, and click Ethernet 

Controllers.

 

2  

 

If the computer has multiple Ethernet ports, 

use the Ethernet port pop-up menu to select the 
Ethernet port. Ports are identified by (computer) 
name. 

 

3  

 

Click Enable. 

 

4  

 

Pro Tools scans the Ethernet connection for 

any Ethernet Controllers connected to the sys-
tem. 

 

5  

 

Use the pop-up menu to select your Con-

trol|24 unit from the #1 row.

 

6  

 

Click OK to close the Peripherals dialog and 

save your configuration settings. (If Pro Tools 
displays the firmware update dialog, see “Con-
trol|24 Firmware” on page 36.)

If Control|24 does not appear in the Ethernet 
Controllers pop-up menu, check the following: 

• Ethernet port status (Windows)

• Ethernet port settings and connections. 

• If your computer and Control|24 are in-

stalled on a network, you might be con-
nected to a different zone or not bridged to 
the correct zone. Bridges must be config-
ured as routers.

• Power cycle your Ethernet hub.

Once Control|24 has been enabled, choices are 
stored and you will not have to re-open the Pe-
ripherals dialog again unless changes to the con-
figuration are necessary. 

 

Control|24 Firmware 

 

With each Pro Tools release, any new Con-
trol|24 firmware is included in the Control|24 
personality file.

After enabling Control|24 in the Peripherals di-
alog, Pro Tools compares the firmware of the 
connected unit to the version available in the 
personality file. If you don’t have the latest firm-
ware, you will be prompted to update your Con-
trol|24 unit. 

The firmware update is delivered from your 
computer to Control|24 via the Ethernet con-
nection, and typically takes less than a minute. 
During this process it is normal for Control|24 
to go offline, and for the meters and other LEDs 
to flash several times, before reconnecting auto-
matically with Pro Tools.
