How can I download Pro Tools SE

[Big Bear07]

Hey there, I recently purchased a mac mini and just brought "Avid Vocal Studio" from the shop for the missus to play around with. I have a mac mini with no CD drive and figured it would be easy enough to download the software then activate it but cannot find anything on the pro tools website, and am pretty disgusted that you have to pay money to ask them for help. I have a CD with I think is the CD key in a plastic slip (looks a bit to short to me) but can anyone help me with getting this installed on my mac without having to go and buy a CD drive for it.

My 2 cents, but I would buy a USB DVD-RW drive to have on hand anyway

Hi Chris - I managed to find this page on the m-audio site. It looks like it will let you download ProTools SE.

If I were you I would return the product you bought and buy something else since, as you have discovered, ProTools SE and Avid (or m-audio or whatever) hardware is not very well supported.

Best of luck!
