![]() ( see the article we posted at the time with links to supported list here)Įver since the actual release of Pro Tools 11, a portion of the Pro Tools user community has been somewhat frustrated and upset with Avid’s decision to drop the functionality of the Pro Control and Control 24 control surfaces.Īfter seeing other hardware that was originally on the “won’t work” list (such as the 002 series) given a second chance, and come back into the world of the working, at one stage there was a glimmer of hope for these much-loved and ubiquitous control surfaces could make a comeback too, after all the C24 using the same protocol is still supported and working - how hard could it be?Ī thread was started on the DUC by users to air their views that have now turned into one of the biggest threads I’ve ever seen on the forum. When Pro Tools 11 was announced to the public back in what seems like many moons ago, we were also told of a list of hardware that would either no longer be “supported” but may work”, or would just flat out no longer work - for anyone wanting to make the jump to this new version. ![]() Also, there is a post on the Pro Tools Ideascale with 508 votes too. There does seem to be a lot of interest in this already with a thread on the DUC that is now 217 pages long. It has not been easy working out the low-level ethernet communications, cryptography and CRC error detection, but they have made progress and have produced a video showing the progress so far.Įveryone who completes the survey will go into a hat for a chance to win V-Control Pro free for one year. Paul is keen to stress that there are no promises yet but they have started to crack the code to Pro Control and Control 24. But the new V-Control infrastructure can use work with ethernet connected control surfaces. WiFi tends only to be used for mobile surfaces such as V-Console and the legacy V-Control Pro 1 app. 3rd parties like Slate Digital with their MTi and MTi2 control surfaces use the V-Control Pro architecture to interface their control surfaces with Pro Tools and other DAWs. The V-Control Pro application runs on the DAW computer, in a similar way to Eucon, and can use a direct ethernet connection to supported control surfaces. Remember V-Control Pro is no longer just a device to talk to Neyrinck's iPad application. Would you be interested in V-Control Pro offering legacy control surface support? The plan would be to start with the Digidesign Control 24 and Digidesign Pro Control to make them work with Pro Tools 11, Pro Tools 12 and Pro Tools 2018, Logic Pro X, Cubase, and Nuendo. Paul Neyrinck has been in touch to say he is undertaking some R&D looking at possible new features to V-Control Pro that would provide support for these legacy control surfaces with Pro Tools 11 and above as well as other DAWs. We have covered several attempts to get legacy control surfaces working with later versions of Pro Tools. ![]()
