Setting up HUI emulation in Tascam's DM-24
11/14/2002

"Now that Tascam's DM-24 console has HUI emulation, how do I set it up my Digi001?"

This is a really cool innovation: a great digital mixer that works very effectively as a control surface for a Pro Tools system. There are a few steps that you need to follow to set up your Digi001 with the DM-24 running in HUI mode.

1. Connect MIDI in and out of the DM-24 to the MIDI out and in of the 001.

2. Add a "HUI" device to your OMS MIDI setup
- As a device, define the following:
• Manufacturer: Mackie
• Model: other
• Device ID: 0
• Name: HUI
• "Receives MTC" is checked
• "Is Controller" is checked
• Receives on CH 1

3. In Pro Tools, under "Windows" in the menu bar open Show Session Setup
- Check: MTC to Port
- Choose: HUI as the chosen port.

4. In Pro Tools, under Setups in the menu bar open Peripherals
- Click on the MIDI Controllers tab
• #1 Type: HUI
• Send to: HUI
• Channels: 8

5. Open the DM-24 EXTERNAL CONTROL page
- Check: HUI Emulate ID 01 MIDI RX

6. Open the MACHINE CONTROL page
- Check: HUI EMULATE ID01 TRA
- REC: 1-8

7. Open the OPTION-SYNC/TC page
- Check: Sync Source
- Check: MIDI IN MTC

8. Open the EXTERNAL CONTROL page
- Use the cursor to point to the JUMP TO SCREEN icon and press ENTER. (This will take you to the HUI control screen.)

9. HUI Control Screen
- Sends A-E refer to aux sends.
- If you point to A and press ENTER, the encoders on the LCD will show you all of the levels for the first aux send on the channels viewed.
- Using the cursors you can highlight the encoder area and adjust them 4 at a time.
- Pressing SHIFT flips the aux send controls from the POD knobs to the faders. This allows you to control the aux sends 8 at a time with touch sensitive faders.
- When PAN is solid it will show you the pan settings for all channels viewed on the encoders on the LCD screen. Press ENTER and PAN will flash. This simply removes PAN control from the POD knobs.

Moves you make with the HUI emulation are recorded in Pro Tools automation, NOT with the DM-24 automation. MTC sent from Pro Tools is used to trigger the DM-24's internal automation. This is helpful if you are running audio into the DM-24. If you are ONLY using the DM-24 as a "control surface" and mixing in Pro Tools, the MTC going to the DM-24 is not needed.
