3. Set Up Trigger Finger Pro with Your Software
To select Trigger Finger Pro as a controller for your digital audio workstation (DAW):
1. Connect Trigger Finger Pro to your computer using a standard USB cable. (If you are
connecting Trigger Finger Pro to a USB hub, make sure it is a powered hub.)
2. Power on Trigger Finger Pro.
3. Open your DAW.
4. Open your DAW's Preferences (or Options, Device Setup, etc.), and select Trigger
Finger Pro as your controller. Make sure that MIDI Port 1 is enabled for standard MIDI,
MIDI Port 2 is enabled for Mackie Control or HUI communication, and MIDI Port 3 is
disabled (Trigger Finger Pro uses this port to communicate with Arsenal).
5. Turn Trigger Finger Pro's Value Dial to browse through the available Presets, and then
push it to select one that corresponds to your DAW.
Your Trigger Finger Pro can now communicate with your DAW.
Important: If you are using Arsenal and AIR Drums, we recommend using a Preset
whose name includes Arsenal. If you are using Hybrid 3.0, we recommend using a Preset
whose name is a scale (e.g., A Major, C Minor, etc.); these Presets are tailored for
melodic synths. You can use Arsenal presets with Hybrid 3.0 to automap Hybrid 3.0's
controls, but the pads' mapping will be different.
To set up Arsenal for use with Trigger Finger Pro (within your DAW):
1. Open your DAW and make sure Trigger Finger Pro is selected as a controller for your
DAW (described above).
2. Create a MIDI track in your DAW, and load Arsenal onto that track as you would with a
typical plugin, and select that track.
Important: You may need to open your DAW's Preferences (or Options, Device Setup,
etc.) and select the directory where Arsenal was installed before it appears in your DAW's
list of available plugins.
To set up AIR Drums, Hybrid 3.0, and other instrument plugins (within Arsenal):
1. Set up Trigger Finger Pro with Arsenal (described above).
2. In Arsenal, follow the on-screen instructions to locate and scan AIR Drums, Hybrid 3.0, or
other instrument plugins you have.
3. In the Plugin category pane, click the desired plugin to select it.
4. In the Preset pane on the right side of the window, click one of the available presets to
load it.
