Re: Pro tools hd upgrade question.
You need the DigiLink IO license. That comes with hardware not the software. Since you are not purchasing an Avid interface you would normally need to buy that separately, or you can try begging for one. But any way you absolutely need the license for current Pro Tools Ultimate to work with any DigiLink interface.
The easy way to get all your questions answered is to pick up the phone and call a sales rep at Sweetwater or Vintage King.
But what problem are you really trying to solve. Do you really need Ultimate software features? There are lots of fantastic interfaces available that work with Pro Tools, or Pro Tools Ultimate (if you don’t mind the 32 IO and some other limits).
And I would not rush to buy a new Mac Pro... well not the current a new very old Mac Pro. I might wait and see what the new new Mac Pro looks like, or get a iMac, Mac Mini or MacBook Pro.
