REDNET CONTROL
Hosting RedNet Control
RedNet Control may be installed on the same computer as that hosting Pro Tools, or on a different
one. This choice will be generally dictated by the scale and topology of the RedNet network. If you are
adding RedNet 5 to an existing RedNet network, you will already have RedNet Control installed on
the network’s host computer. However, before attempting to add a RedNet 5, you should download
and install the latest version of RedNet Control from
www.focusrite.com
. Note that you will need to
register your hardware first in order to access the download. See page 6.
Using RedNet Control
RedNet Control can be configured to run in one of two ‘host’ modes: RedNet PCIe/DVS or RedNet 5*.
When RedNet 5 units are in use, RedNet 5 mode must be selected. To do this:
•
Select Host Mode from RedNet Control’s Settings menu
•
Select the RedNet 5 option
Three panes will be displayed. The top pane (the host pane) is reserved for virtual representations
of the RedNet 5 units on the network. The virtual RedNet 5 units are displayed in alphabetical order,
according to the name assigned to each unit (names can be entered at the top left of each RedNet 5
unit). The host pane can be displayed or hidden from the Settings menu.
The second and third panes are reserved for other RedNet units on the network (i.e., units other than
RedNet 5s).
