Quickstart : setting up the sac2k to use with ProTools

1. In the OMS Studio Setup, add an SAC-2K Device that uses one MIDI transmit and one MIDI receive channel,
connected to the same port of your MIDI interface.
2. In Pro Tools, from the Setup menu, first choose Peripherals…, then MIDI Controllers. Under the Type column,
select HUI. Under the Receive From and Send To columns, select SAC-2K. The #Ch’s column will be
automatically assigned. Click OK to confirm your selection. This will automatically set the SAC-2K to Pro
Tools mode. (PROTO in the SAC-2K’s System menu). The SAC-2K responds by updating its Fader and Encoder
positions.*
3. Place the supplied template around the Software Navigation button field.

* Certain MIDI interface/computer combinations require that the SAC-2K’s operation mode be set manually. If the Faders and Encoders do not automatically update upon confirming your selection in the Peripherals… dialog, first make sure that the SAC-2K is in the correct mode. Press the SAC-2K’s System button and select the PROTO mode with the first Encoder of the right-most display. Then, in Pro Tools, make sure that the SAC-2K’s Input is enabled in the MIDI menu>Input Devices… dialog. The Pro Tools software should now recognize the SAC-2K.
