I was wondering if anyone could give me some input or advice on using
a Yamaha 4416 as a control surface for a Pro Tools session. I have a
Digi 001 setup and I see on the Yamaha website that there is a MIDI
remote template to make the 4416 work with Pro Tools. However, I am
not sure on the details on setting up the two together. Listed below
are the instructions from Yamaha's web site. Just not sure what in
OMS setup I might need to do and if this is even something that I want
or can use. Also, I am not to sue on how to load the bulk MIDI data
file into the 4416. Any help or input would be most welcomed. Thanks
