HyperControl for Pro Tools
|
Axiom Pro
HyperControl Display and Soft-Keys
HyperControl can control Pro Tools from any window within the DAW regardless of whether the “Edit,” “Mix,” or plug-in/virtual
instrument window is currently selected However, Axiom Pro is ideally suited to control Pro Tools when in a sequencing
environment (i e , while working within the “Edit” window) since the Axiom Pro display and controls can handle Pro Tools mixing
functions while your computer monitor helps you arrange your music
The default “Home” screen is shown below:
The name of the currently selected
Pro Tools track is displayed at the
top-left of the screen.
The upper-right corner of the
display lists the parameter,
insert, or virtual instrument
that the Encoder Knobs are
currently controlling.
Any time a slider, knob, or
other control is moved
on Axiom Pro, the
corresponding Pro Tools
parameter and its value
are listed in this line.
The center of the
screen displays either
the names of the Pro
Tools tracks that are
under the control of
Axiom Pro or the
current position of the
knobs, sliders, or
other controls of
Axiom Pro.
The bottom row lists menus and
options that can be accessed
using Soft-Keys 1-4.
As indicated in the top-right corner of the example screen shown above, this
page allows you to set Pan positions of your Pro Tools tracks by using the
Encoder knobs The two columns display the track names of your Pro Tools
session (“Vox Lead” through “VirtInst” in this example) These tracks are
currently under the control of the Axiom Pro encoders: the left column
(Vox Lead, Harmony, Guitar, Bass) always corresponds to Encoder
knobs E1-E4 whereas the right column (Kick, Snare, Overheds, VirtInst)
corresponds to Encoder knobs E5-E8
The Soft-Keys of Axiom Pro allow you to select the four different HyperControl
pages that are listed along the bottom of the display (“Home,” “Ins,” “Sends,”
and “Chan”) When a new page is loaded, the Encoder knobs automatically
map to the parameters listed on the newly loaded page For example, in the
picture shown above, pressing Soft-Key 3 (Sends) accesses the Sends page
of HyperControl and lets you use the Encoder knobs to control send levels that
you’ve assigned in the Pro Tools mixer
Note that if the Encoder knobs are not assigned to control any parameters
within Pro Tools, turning a knob will have no effect on your Axiom Pro display or
Pro Tools session
✓
What about the Sliders?
The Axiom Pro 49/61 Sliders always
control the volume faders of your selected
tracks within Pro Tools This happens
regardless of what page is currently
loaded using Soft-Keys 1-4 (the loaded
page only affects the Encoder knobs)
The only exception to this rule is if
Axiom Pro is either in “Instrument” or
“Insert” mode and “Flip Faders” mode
is activated When Flip Faders mode is
activated, the sliders are used to control
insert and virtual instrument parameters,
while the Encoder knobs are used to set
track levels
