Digidesign's site, besides saying the product is now discontinued :-( says:
"There was no Pro Tools FREE version for Windows XP or Mac OS X, and the above applications will not work on either operating system, or in Classic when booted in Mac OS X."
So it looks like the only way to get it to work is to choose your OS9 system as startup and reboot. It ONLY works in NATIVE OS9 (as I just described) as opposed to CLASSIC OS9 -- there is actually a difference in how the computer runs in native vs. classic.
Hope this helps! |

I don't know what "Walt" is going on about - if he thinks Pro-tools FREE is less complicated than Cubase then he must have a screw loose. I get the feeling he may not have paid any attention to the manual either, as I find Pro-tools a LOT simpler to use for straight audio recording and also manipulating AIFF tracks for dance/electronic music.
To put it simply, if you don't have much money and still want decent home recordings of your music, Pro-tools is FREE is the answer. I've been producing recordings with it for about three years and anyone who'se heard them say they're 'almost' the same quality as professional CDs. Not bad considering the only piece of software I've PAID for is the reverb plug-in for PRo-tools. Using various Free programs and synthesizers I can happliy record and create in any of the musical genres I'm into. (Tip: if you have 'save' disabled demo's of synths, you can record the audio in the background with "Coaster" and then import the AIFF into Pro-Tools Free for maniplulation/mixing).
Better than any small commercial hardware 4 ort 8 track by a long shot! Thank you Digidesign! I promise when I get that winning lottery ticket I'll be purchasing a Pro-tools HD system. Pro-tools - deifnately the best all-rounder for the home musician!!

| I'm running an upgraded Power Mac 7300 with a G3 upgrade and 320 MB ram ($400 Cdn total) and ProTools Free, a 20 yr old tape deck for signal amplification (Microphone), and a 15 yr old Yamaha FX500 for guitar input, and I'm delighted to be able to record my songs in 16 bit (by choice) stereo. This is certainly the way to have fun "tooling" around without spending the thousands of dollars it takes for "professional" recording. After all, there are only two types of music, good or bad, so why spend thousands of dollars if your songs suck! Thank you Digidesign. |

| Pro Tools Free served me well for two years. I bought the D-Verb plug in, which was worth the $50. I just wish they had a OSX version. I'd be using it all the time. Currently I'm using Audacity and GarageBand. |

It is an excellent way to learn the amazing Protools software for free. Also a way to get Protools working on a Titanium (using the compatible Digigram PCMCIA interface).
The only missing feature is OSX support ;-) |

I'm very disappointed with the convoluted way you have to set up the software to record. It should be simple and intuitatve. At the very least the audio tracks should be preset and you should be able to simply click the audio track and arm it for recording.
The idea of setting in and out audio seems so stupid. Where else does audio go except in and out. The software should automatically be preset by default and if I want to route the audio differently then I go into some menue
and re-route the audio in or out.
This version of PTools has not made me want to go out and by the professional version with the hardware because it must be just as convoluted. In fact I'm going out and getting my self another hard disk recorder. This PTools software is not even worth the price.
I prefer Cubase and DigitalPerformer. |

| This freeware has helped me write material & produce acceptable demos for an entire band whilst still in my bedroom. It's fantastic. My advice would be to buy the D-Verb plug-in from the Digidesign website, well worth it! Could do with a parametric EQ tho... |
