Pro Tools

To connect Wave to Avid's Pro Tools, navigate to Setup → Peripherals... → MIDI Controllers. Create a new controller in one of the four slots. Type should be "M-AudioKeyboard". Receive from "Wave, Bluetooth". Send to "Wave, Bluetooth". #Ch's "8".

There are several different ways to use Wave within Pro Tools.

Mapping to Pro Tools' native Transport Controls and Parameters.

1. Pro Tools has dedicated CC signals for a few native Transport Controls and Parameters.
2. In Softwave make sure every function you want to use to control Pro Tools' native Transport Controls and Parameters has a dedicated CC number (→ see Functions)
3. You can use Tilt, Pan, Roll and Vibrato for the following (→ see Functions):
   

   CC number	Function
   CC 17 to CC 24	Pan for tracks 1-8
   CC 33 to CC 40	Faders on tracks 1-8
   CC 41	Master Fader

4. You can use the Click Function for the following
   

   CC number	Function
   CC 12	Mute selected track
   CC 13	Solo selected track
   CC 14	Move bank left
   CC 15	Move bank right
   CC 49 to CC 56	Slider Buttons (Mute on tracks 1-8)
   CC 57	Flip button
   CC 109	Mode button
   CC 110	Prev track
   CC 111	Next track
   CC 113	Loop button
   CC 116	Stop
   CC 117	Play
   CC 118	Record

   Additionally you can use Key Commands for Transport Control (→ see Functions).

1. You can use the Momentary Click Function for the following
   (→ see Click Function)
   

   CC number	Function
   CC 114	Rewind
   CC 115	Fast Forward

Mapping to a Virtual Instrument Plugin

1. In Softwave make sure every function you want to use to control Pro Tools' native Transport Controls and Parameters has a dedicated CC number
   (→ see Functions)
2. As there are quite a lot of CC signals already taken by Pro Tools' native Transport Controls and Parameters you need to use one of the following CC signals:
   

   CC number	Function
   CC 0 to CC 11	Customizable
   CC 16	Customizable
   CC 25 to CC 32	Customizable
   CC 42 to CC 48	Customizable
   CC 58 to CC 63	Customizable
   CC 65 to CC 73	Customizable
   CC 79 to CC 108	Customizable
   CC 112	Customizable
   CC 119	Customizable

3. In Softwave solo the function you want to map.
4. Create an →Instrument Track← in Pro Tools.
5. Open the virtual instrument of choice, e.g. Xpand!2 which comes with Pro Tools.
6. Right-Click the parameter you want to control and select "Learn MIDI CC".
7. Now De-Solo the function in Softwave. The function should be mapped to Pro Tools.

Important 1

You won't be able to control the parameter with Wave unless you arm the Instrument Track.

Important 2

Not all Virtual Instrument Plugins allow for MIDI Learn. This completely depends on the developer of the plugin. If nothing happens when you Right-Click a parameter in the plugin you can not assign MIDI to it.

Mapping to an Audio Plugin

1. In Softwave make sure every function you want to use to control Pro Tools' native Transport Controls and Parameters has a dedicated CC number (→ see Functions).
2. As there are quite a lot of CC signals already taken by Pro Tools' native Transport Controls and Parameters you need to use one of the following CC signals:
   

   CC number	Function
   CC 0 to CC 11	Customizable
   CC 16	Customizable
   CC 25 to CC 32	Customizable
   CC 42 to CC 48	Customizable
   CC 58 to CC 63	Customizable
   CC 65 to CC 73	Customizable
   CC 79 to CC 108	Customizable
   CC 112	Customizable
   CC 119	Customizable

3. In Softwave solo the function you want to map.
4. Create an →Audio Track← in Pro Tools.
5. Open the plugin you want to map to.
6. Now create a →MIDI Track← in Pro Tools.
7. On the "Input" choose "Wave, Bluetooth".
8. On the "Output" choose the plugin you put on the Audio Track.
9. Open the plugin.
10. Right-Click the parameter you want to control and select "Learn MIDI CC".
11. Now De-Solo the function in Softwave. The function should be mapped to Pro Tools.

Important 1

You won't be able to control the parameter with Wave unless you arm the MIDI Track.
