02R with Pro Tools for Music Recording
This application shows how the 02R can be used with a Pro Tools system. The eight digital
tape returns and 24 Mic/Line inputs provide up to 40 inputs at mixdown. In addition, the
02R’s built-in automation and scene memory systems provide both dynamic and static mix
automation referenced to MIDI timecode.
A Digidesign 888 I/O Audio Interface connects the 02R to the Pro Tools system, with a
special 50-pin Pro Tools cable between the computer card and 888. The 25-pin connector
on the CD8-AE-S card connects to a patchbox, which provides eight AES/EBU inputs (four
XLRs) and eight AES/EBU outputs (four XLRs).
Pro Tools can be controlled remotely from the 02R V2 using the Pro Tools template of the
MIDI Remote function. The 02R’s built-in automation is referenced to MTC coming from
the Pro Tools system. A MOTU MIDI Timepiece (or Opcode Studio 4) is used as a MIDI
interface and connects to the computer’s Modem port.
Connections
•
The AES/EBU (CD8-AE-S) card must be screwed securely in place. Do not leave the
screws out after installation as the card will not be grounded correctly.
•
The Digital In/Out connectors on the 02R and patchbox are connected together using a
25-pin D-sub cable.
•
The patchbox is connected to the 888 I/O Audio Interface using AES/EBU-compatible
XLR cables.
•
The 888 I/O Audio Interface connects to the audio card using a special 50-pin Pro Tools
cable.
•
The Pro Tools system is connected to Slot
[1]
of the 02R and the tape inputs correspond
to tracks one through eight.
02R Wordclock Setup
The 02R works as a wordclock slave. On the DIGITAL I/O menu, set the wordclock source
to TAPE 1/2 (i.e., AES/EBU 1/2).
Pro Tools Wordclock Setup
The Pro Tools system should be configured as wordclock master.
Note
•
The D-sub <–> XLR box (or D-sub to XLR break-out cable) is not available from
Yamaha, and should be custom made.
