trols to a 9-pin or MMC device using MachineControl.

In Dual Transport mode, you can toggle the transport mas-
ter between “Transport=Pro Tools” and “Transport = Ma-
chine,” “Transport=MMC,” or “Transport=Remote” directly
from the D-Control Transport switches.

In Single Transport mode, you toggle the transport master
between “Transport=Pro Tools” and “Transport = Machine,”
“Transport=MMC,” or “Transport=Remote” using the Machine
Online switch in the Transport Mode controls.

edly to display the page that includes “Transpt.”
