On Macintosh systems, use AMS to check MIDI
communication and update your AMS setup.
To update AMS for Command|8: <\/p>\n
1. Make sure the power and USB cables are connected as in-
structed. (See “Connecting Command|8 to
Pro Tools and Your Computer” on page 8 of the manual.) <\/p>\n
2. Make sure you have connected any additional
MIDI keyboards or sound modules to the Com-
mand|8 5-pin MIDI ports on the back panel. (See
“Connecting MIDI Devices” on page 12 of the manual.) <\/p>\n
3. Make sure you have installed the most recent
version of Pro Tools and the included Com-
mand|8 software. (See “Installing Software for
Command|8″ on page 9.)<\/p>\n
4. Launch AMS. <\/p>\n
5 Make sure that Command|8 is recognized, is
online, and that its three ports are available in
AMS. <\/p>\n
6. Configure AMS for any devices attached to the
Command|8 MIDI In and Out ports by connect-
ing their device icons to the appropriate Com-
mand|8 ports. <\/p>\n
Do not connect any AMS devices to Com-
mand|8 Port 1. Port 1 is reserved for Com-
mand|8-to-Pro Tools control surface communi-
cation. <\/p>\n
The other AMS (in\/out) Command|8 back panel ports are configured in the following manner:<\/p>\n
Port 1 none (reserved for control surface
communication via USB MIDI)
Port 2 Midi In 1, Midi Out 1
Port 3 Midi Out 2 <\/p>\n
7. Save and close your updated AMS setup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[35869],"storecat":[],"itemids":[20114,20948,25447],"manufacturers":[33300],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n
