Dual Boot Cheesegrader Mac Pro with PT 10 HD and Ultimate
I just bought PT 10 and plan to use it on Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion. My license also comes with Ultimate 2020.
For Ultimate I was planning on running High Sierra or Mohave. In that instance, can I use the optical port on my mac pro to feed something like an Apogee Rosetta 200 or 800? They're cheaper than buying an HD Native card and I wouldn't have to ditch my HD cards for tracking.

That's good to know about the ram. Thanks for the info. I have a 12 core 5,1.

Edit: I meant even earlier versions than ML can access more ram. |

Re: Dual Boot Cheesegrader Mac Pro with PT 10 HD and Ultimate
Can I use Ultimate with the optical out into a Rosetta's adat input for mixing?

this also works with Mac Pro 3.1 for the OP with a 5.1 this won't make a difference as his MP shipped with a higher OS than ML . Earlier versions of Mac OS cannot access more RAM as the older OS was not 64 bit. |

Re: Dual Boot Cheesegrader Mac Pro with PT 10 HD and Ultimate
The Mac optical out is not ADAT format, it is optical SPDIF/TosLink. I'm not that familiar with the Rosetta, but unless the Optical port on the Rosetta can do stereo SPDIF/TosLink, then probably not.

I use the optical port on my cheese grater with the apogee mini-dac to go to a pair of powered monitors (and headphones) and it sounds great. A great sounding core audio out option.

Re: Dual Boot Cheesegrader Mac Pro with PT 10 HD and Ultimate
As already mentioned, Mac optical output is SPDIF. Rosetta 200 (stereo box) can do SPDIF optical but Rosetta 800 (8-channel box) can only do ADAT/SMUX
