Default Original Mbox Standalone Driver for Windows 7
Hi guys, Quick one: I have the original MBox and would like to use it with ASIO or Wavedriver so i can run Fruity Loops through it. I've been unable to find these drivers. Any ideas where I can find them?

Thanks in advance.

The original Mbox has EOSS as of Pro Tools 8.0.1.

Thanks mate. Sorry, excuse my ignorance, but what is EOSS? And i don't need to use pro tools. I already have that setup on another machine running the Digi 002. I just want the Original Mbox running on windows 7 via ASIO or Wavedriver. Any ideas?

Cheers bud.

Also... you are asking a Windows question in the Mac section.

EOSS = End Of Service Support

Meaning, after 8.0.1 the MBox is officially discontinued as a Digidesign product. So no more updates, support or compatibility.

This also means that the original MBox will not be qualified for use on Windows 7 or Mac OSX 10.6.

I never said it was impossible for it to work... I said it was not QUALIFIED to work. Of course some people might have other experiences, but these will be far and few between, and they are LUCKY if this is the case.

If you expect to use Pro Tools with any sort of longevity in Win7 or OSX 10.6... you will need to upgrade.

Not only that, but there are no standalone drivers in existence made for use on Win7 or 10.6... and since the original MBox isn't designed to work with Pro Tools 8.0.3... again... any use from it would be pure luck.

That is somewhat interesting given that Digidesign stated that the Mbox will not work after Pro Tools 8.0.1.
