Digi 002 Operating Modes
Digi 002 can be in any of three states when it is
powered on: Standby mode, Pro Tools mode, or
Stand-alone mode.
Standby Mode
Digi 002 is in this mode when you first power
on the unit, waiting for you to either launch
Pro Tools or put the unit in Stand-alone mode.
In Standby mode, the unit displays “Digi 002”
and “Standby” in the Scribble Strips, and the
Standalone LED flashes.
Pro Tools Mode
Digi 002 is in this mode when the Digi 002 unit
is connected to a computer and Pro Tools LE
software is running.
If no Pro Tools session is open, the unit displays
“Open or create a new session.” When a
Pro Tools session is open, the unit mirrors the
on-screen controls. In this mode, the
Stand-alone LED is off.
To put Digi 002 in Pro Tools mode:
1
Make sure the Digi 002 unit is properly con-
nected to the computer and in Standby mode.
2
Launch Pro Tools LE and open or create a
Pro Tools session.
Stand-Alone Mode
When you put Digi 002 in Stand-alone mode,
the unit becomes an 8-channel digital mixer
that operates independently from Pro Tools.
See Chapter 9, “Using Digi 002 as a Stand-Alone
Mixer” for more information on stand-alone op-
eration of Digi 002.
