to Pro Tools Accessibility
Hi,
I have been trying to connect my new Pro Tools Dock to my Mac but seem to have an issue with EuCon seeing the Dock.
I have done all the steps as required so far in setting things up. Connected the Dock to my Mac, switched it on with my Mac up and running. Registered the Dock with Avid. Downloaded and installed EuCon on my Mac. It is after this stage that I have a problem.
According to the instructions after installing EuCon and having to restart my Mac to install it, when restarting my Mac with the Dock connected there should be a lit EuCon icon on the task bar.
No EuCon icon appears on the Task bar and my sighted wife checked this for me too.
In Mac preferences there is a tab for EuCon and an empty table of devices. On Googling around I can’t seem to find any answers or suggestions on how to either get the EuCon onto the task bar or any hints and tips on what to do.
I have a USB C to Ethernet adaptor which is connecting my Dock to my Mac and I can see the adaptor in network connections in preferences.
I have been into Pro Tools and ticked the box for EuCon connections just in case.
I have tried powering down my Mac and Dock and restarting but can’t seem to get them to talk to each other.
I would have called Avid Support here in the UK but they are not open over the weekend.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Toby

Under security, you need to allow for Yukon under the accessibility tab.
Sent from my iPhone, so forgive Siri’s mistakes and my brevity.

Hi Sean,
Not sure what you mean…on my Mac there is nothing in system preferences under security for this or in preferences in Pro Tools. Could you give some more details as to what you mean?
Cheers

Pretty sure he is referring to the security and privacy system preference, If there isn’t something under the general tab asking you to allow it, then go to the privacy tab and select accessibility. If its not listed in the second column you should be able to add it manually with the Add button.

Hi Sean,
I now have the Dock working with PT and after a bit of time trying to work out a few things now I am able to make selections of audio with the Dock wheel in jog mode with the keyboard keys such as holding shift while scrubbing and a combination of using command and E to make split clips with using option, shift and tab to select from play point with the wheel back to the split.
Not sure if you saw my email to Slau but I wondered how you engage the channel strip and the fader on the Dock to the track you are working on.
I had a screen share with a guy from Avid re the Dock and he did something in PT and the fader shot into life and it had been engaged ever since he did what he did but for some reason the fader has dropped down and I can’t seem to work out how to engage it with the track I am editing on.
Any tips greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Toby

Hi Toby,
OK, here are a few settings to check.
1. Open the EuCon Control app from your operating system Dock, you can
also use the (Command plus tab) until you hear EuCon Control.
2. Press (Command plus number 1) in the QWERTY keyboard above the
letter (Q). This is the shortcut key and will open the EuCon settings
window.
3. Navigate to the “General Tab” and (VO spacebar) to click and select
the General settings view.
4. Using the Voiceover Item Chooser, (VO plus I), type the first three
letters of the word “Select”. This will bring up a list of
approximately 9 items. You will need to one by one, VO click each of
the following three items related to your issue in order to draw
Voiceover’s focus to the check box location. If they’re not checked,
just VO click each to check the boxes insuring that the PT Dock will
track your selections in the Track List View.
Item #1:
“Select most recently attentioned track” Should be checked.
Item #2:
“Attention most recently selected track Legacy” should be checked.
Item number 3:
“Auto Bank to selected track” should be checked.
Close the settings window with (Command plus W), and then hide the
EuCon Control with (Command plus H).
I hope this helps.

Hi Sean,
Very precise directions as usual! :)
How about that "folder Track" and track numbering issue We discussed on the last Avid call?
