Hi at all...  
 
first post here. so let me say, what a great source this forum is.  
I think i'm on the right way, but a few questions remain.  
 
What i want to do:  
I search for a workaround to get Stop/Play/Record status out of Protools.  
In fact i need just a Dout level to control a small logic witch will drive  
some LED's and a relais (or FET switch).  
The relais switches the Talkback Mic send to Headphone system in the 
recording room. The talkback mutes automatically when Protools is in  
Playback and/or in Record status.  
 
Questions_  
1) am i right, the only way to get these status out of a DAW is a Midibox LC? 
Will this work properly with just the core module and nothing else? 
 
2) can i use the Dout's directly from the PIC without a additional Dout module? 
Is it possible to address these 3 Dout pins from the PIC to the right midinote? 
 
thank you very much for clarifying...
