Is the only difference between Pro Tools LE (that comes with the M-Box)
and the downloadable Pro Tools "Free", the available tracks (LE = 24,
and Free = 8)??

Will the free version take RTAS plug in's?

Anyone have luck trying PT Free w/ an M-Audio quattro or similar?

Thanks,
Rod

Pro tools free, aside from being 8 tracks is still the same as 4.7 software, If
I remember correctly.

No stereo tracks is one thing. But yes most RTAS plug ins work.

Quite similar, but....You can only do 8 mono tracks, and only two at a
time, no matter how many inputs your sound card has. RTAS plugins
will work.
