Digidesign is now announced last year. Version 6.0 of the software brings Mac OS X compatibility, new file management functions, enhanced MIDI functionality, TDM and RTAS plug-in instancing on-the-fly (TDM version only), new plugins, import Session Data options (TDM only), and more features in the LE version. List price for the Pro Tools 6.0 software upgrade is $200 from any previous TDM version and $75 from any previous LE version. The page however notes some limited functionality, until follow-up software updates are offered in mid-2003.

Digidesign's Pro Tools TDM 6.0 software supports Pro Tools|HD, Pro Tools|24 MIX, and Pro Tools|24 systems, but does not include support for for AVoption|XL and Avid Unity MediaNetwork--which will be added in another release currently scheduled for mid-2003. Pro Tools LE 6.0 software supports Digi 001, Mbox and Digi ToolBox, while Mac OS X support for Digi 002 will be included in a follow-up software release, currently scheduled for mid-2003. Additionally, neither version of the software supports DigiStudio.

    What about new Macs?

    Lots of people have had lots of problems with the Digi001 on newer G4s (Dual 867MHz-Dual 1.42GHz). Some had to change the motherboard or the Mac wouldn't startup (at all, not even a chime). Some had crashes upon loading the DigiSystem INIT.

    I'd like to know where we are with the latest machines and ProTools 6.

    authorization

    What an absurdly cumbersome and stupid plug-in authorization scheme . . .
    what if you don't want your Protools machine to have access to the internet?!?!

    That's a lot of hoops just to get people to pay for a few plug-ins . . . the people who pirate couldn't pay in the first place . . . so its just useless cumbersome hoopsand will probably not aid in making a profit

    Re: what about...

    Some had crashes upon loading the DigiSystem INIT.

    What's an INIT? Is that like a kernel extension?

    ProTools 6.0

    Anyone know what the solutions are to get 6.0 running successfully with a G4 Dual 867, and the 001? I'm having all kinds of problems...locks up, can't import audio, and now I can't even open or create a session without an "unexpected quit". Some insight would be great before I spend a lot of time on the phone paying for support...Thanks
