What do I need to record with Pro Tools 7?

Submitted by anonymous on Thu, 05/07/2009 - 17:17

I am new to home recording and just got ahold of Pro Tools 7. I was told that I am also going to need an audio interface (like an mbox) for the program to work. Is there any restrictions to which audio interfaces I can use? What are the good ones that won't break my bank account?

Is there any other hardware that is ESSENTIAL to recording?

I am very new to Pro Tools as of yesterday. I am running Pro Tools LE 7.4 on a new laptop. I am looking for someone that would kindly list out some External Harddtives that I can make a choice from for Recording and Playing Back Audio. I am using a Digidesign 003 Rack Factory. I know that I need 7200 RPM with an NTFS file system for Vista Ultimate.

USB Mic into 1010LT/Pro Tools 7.3 M-Powered

Submitted by anonymous on Fri, 10/05/2007 - 01:48

I hope someone can help. I have a T.Bone 440 USB mic and I have tried everything to get it recognised in Pro Tools with a 1010LT card to no avail. I have tried ASIO4ALL which seemed to add it as an input, but I still couldn't see it in Pro Tools. It does sound very good for the money when used in a windows recording app, but I'd really like to use it as a direct input in Pro Tools.

question about m powered pro tools 7

Submitted by anonymous on Wed, 03/22/2006 - 17:34

i know that you have to use m powered pro tools with m audio interfaces and vice versa for pro le and Digidesign interfaces but can you open m powered sessions on a le system or HD system if you wanted to do some more tracking or mixing in another studio. I know you can do this with the original le systems... going between tdm, hd, and le setups. i hope this is the same for m powered to?
