New iMac and PT 8 upgrade help
Hi,
I am currently runnning an Macbook with OSX 10.4.x alongside PT LE 7.4 (and a DIGI 002). Everything is running smoothly but I am looking at upgrading to one of the new imacs. Can anyone confirm that if I buy the imac I can just buy the downloadable PT LE 8 upgrade onto the new machine and it'll all work fine? Thanks |

Re: New iMac and PT 8 upgrade help
Yes. You would just install the Protools 8 software on it's own with no need to first install PT7 (in fact it's recommended you don't). You will then want to update to 8.0.4.
This is assuming you follow all the other rules common to protools (no incompatible plugs, record to an external hard drive, etc.). |

Great, I was hoping it would be that easy. I presume I have to download Pace drivers, I vaguely remember having to do that last time?

As far as I know, you shouldn't need to do anything with Pace drivers. Anytime that's been a factor when installing software, the software retrieved the proper drivers and installed them.
