My Mbox 2 won't show up in Playback Engine options on Pro Tools.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver countless times and even the whole Pro Tools. The Mbox lights up and can be used for playback with my system i.e. music, movies etc and the sound works through the mbox. However, when I start Pro Tools there is no option under the SETUP > PLAYBACK ENGINE for the mbox. There is only "Windows Audio"and "Realteck ASIO". The realteck asio is my pc's sound and if I try choose Windows audio device I get an AAE error -6117. Can't find anything about this anywhere!!!


HELP ME IT'S BEEN A WHOLE WEEK
As I already said, you should go into Control Panel>sound>Properties and choose the onboard(Realtek) device as the "Default Playback Device" for Windows. That SHOULD free up the Mbox for Pro Tools. Then, hold down the "n" key while opening Pro tools to go directly to the "audio engine" setup page. If this is still not working, maybe check to see if you downloaded the correct windows driver for the Mbox(the Mbox Pro 2 uses a different driver than the Mbox 2)
