Chapter 5: Synchronizing Pro Tools and ADAT with an Alesis BRC
39
Pro Tools needs to send an MMC message
that will tell the BRC what start time to go
to, but Pro Tools is going to be waiting for
the time code to come back from the BRC
when the ADATs begin to play.
Configuring Pro Tools
1
Choose Setups > Peripherals and open
the Peripherals/Synchronization window.
2
Select “Generic time code reader” as the
synchronization Device, then choose the
port that your MIDI interface is connected
to (if in doubt, select Any).
3
Now click the Machine Control tab to
open the Peripherals/Machine Control
page.
4
In the MIDI Machine Control section (in
the lower left of the window), do the fol-
lowing:
• Enable MIDI Machine Control
• Set the MMC port by selecting BRC (Mac-
intosh) or the appropriate hardware port
(Windows) from the Send To popup, and
leave the (channel) ID for the BRC set to
127
5
Click OK to close the Peripherals win-
dow.
6
Choose Windows > Show Session Setup.
7
Check to make sure the session start time
is correct for the current ADAT project.
8
Put Pro Tools online by clicking the On-
line button in the Pro Tools Transport win-
dow.
9
Press the Play button in the Pro Tools
Transport window and the ADATs should
locate to the current Pro Tools playback lo-
cation.
Troubleshooting MMC
If you press Play and the ADATs locate but
Pro Tools won’t start, make sure that
Pro Tools is getting time code. To do this,
press Play on the BRC and check the Cur-
rent Time field in Pro Tools Session Setup
window to make sure Pro Tools is receiving
time code. If it isn’t, check your cable con-
nections.
On the Macintosh, double-check your
OMS configuration. In Windows, check to
make sure your MIDI interface is properly
connected and recognized by your system.
If the ADATs do not locate, check your set-
tings in the Peripherals > Synchronization
window.
