I know this problem was from a long time ago, but did you ever get that motif rack/m audio midi controller/pro tools connection correct? This is the last hurdle before my studio is completely efficient! I thank you in advance for your time and response- please help…fyi i’m running pro tools 8 with windows vista

No – the 002 won’t work as a stand-alone programmable MIDI control surface with Ableton Live. (You might be able to use the basic transport controls – but I’d have to double check that to be certain…it’s been a while since I’ve played with the 002 control surface).

However, there are some very affordable control surface devices out there these days that will enable you to create custom MIDI CC profiles for use with Live.

Edirol PCR MIDI Controller keyboard, and of course, the M-Audio Axiom series.

Hope that helps,

Thank you. I’m glad you like the site. Sorry for the delayed reply to your comment.

I don’t know the MPC3000 that well off the top of my head to be able to give you an answer here.
I’ve posted the question in case any other MPC users care to share.

Kind regards,

Chris

The Massey Plugins are RTAS format. DP7 uses AU.
Learn more about DP7 plugin support here.

The only other option is to double-check and see it a particular plugin you own is also available as a native RTAS plugin, too. Most major plugin developers provide plugins in the most common formats (RTAS, VST, AU,).

There is no free way to get the VST-RTAS Wrapper. You can purchase from the developer (fxpansion) here.

After reading great reviews, I downloaded the free version, then clicked on Installer-then it says installation successful!

But I can’t find them in the inserts on Digital Performer 7.24/Mac OS 10.72

Thanks for your help

I have a MPC 3000 and am trying to run it thru Pro Tools. The question that I have is: Should I be in Drum or MIDI on the MPC?

When I am in Drum, as soon as I hit a pad crazy noises happen but I do get a signal when the track is armed.
But when I am in MIDI mode I get no sound at all.

What should I do?

Thanks.

Thanks for all your attention and availability. I have a question about working with Ableton Live and a Digi 002 console.

Is there anything available to setup the 002 to perform as a mixer and interface directly with Ableton Live? i have been working on using live as a rewire slave to Pro Tools but I’m really missing the VST and AU plugs in Live as well as all the MIDI functions. MIDI is so flexible and fun to use with Live, yet the 002 works so easily with Pro Tools. I wish that I could have some of the capabilities of the 002 working directly with Ableton Live.

So here are my two questions:

Does anything exist that tells the 002 where the Live controls are via MIDI/CC messages, to come somewhere close to making Live work as well with the 002 as the 002 works with PT?

and 2) Where is it on the web?

Thanks in advance!

After installing, check System Prefs to make sure your device show up at bottom. Don’t need to do anything there, just buffer and timing which should stay where they are usually. I saw no need to have MIDI Thru ON. But it is not there is nothing working over USB into PT9 for some reason. I do not need to go back to my device, as it is GR55 Roland which does not receive MIDI performance data, only sends it. I finally got all working today after a roller coaster ride for past week.
