Lightbulb More than 32 busses in ProTools 8 LE

Hello All,

I want to know if there's a way to increase the total number of busses that ProTools 8 gives by default (get more than 32 busses).

A friend told me I can do it if I buy the "Music Production Toolkit 2", but I didn't see anything about it in the specifications.

Can anyone please tell me if it's possible and how?

Thanks in advance!

Francisco

the MPTK2 will not do it. the CPTK (Complete Production Tool Kit) will give you 64 busses.

Thank you for answering!

Well... $1,995 is a lot for 32 extra busses! I know it has a lot more... but I wish there was a cheaper way to just increase busses.

Anyway... thanks again!

By the way... are you sure it increases the number of busses? I didn't see it either on the specs. I just want to be sure before paying for ti!

Thanks again.

Thanks a lot for the suggestion! I just bought it new for $899, express shipping included.

It makes me wonder, though... how can that seller offer that price? He still has it published and it's a very reputable seller. Does Avid give distributors such a big profit margin?

Anyway, thanks!
