Media 100i (ShuttlePRO series only) 

Q:  I am using Media 100i with my ShuttlePRO device but I can't get the buttons or the shuttle 

to do much of anything. What is wrong? 

A:  First you need to make sure you have the Control Strip Module unhidden and can see the 

different "Modes". Next you should hit "Shift-Clear (Num-Lock)". This should enable the 
number pad for movement. 

 

 

Q:  The Shuttle device buttons do not work or stopped working with Media 100. 
A:  You must turn on transport controls within Media 100 software to enable your ShuttlePRO 

device to function correctly. First, you must have Media 100 launched and it must be the 
front most window. Second, press "Shift+Num Lock/Clear" to toggle transport controls to 
On. 

 

 

 

ProTools 

Q:  How do I enable the play head to follow the location you are moving to while moving the 

Shuttle ring? 

A:  In ProTools click on the setups pull down menu, and select Preferences. In the Preferences 

dialog box please turn on or check the following, Timeline insertion follows playback, and 
edit insertion follows Scrub/Shuttle. 

 

 

 

Quick Keys 

Q:  How can I use the ShuttlePRO with Quick Keys? 
A:  You can set-up a Macro or sequence within QuickKeys and apply a keyboard shortcut for 

that function. Then program that keyboard shortcut into the ShuttlePRO: the ShuttlePRO 
will now work for the said Macro or QuickKey function. Make sure that when you do this, 
that the QuickKey function you program, is targeted for the application it is used in, and 
not for all applications. 
(You can do the same for KeyQuencer as well.)
