External mic with pro tools 8 LE?
I just set up pro tools 8 le. I have an external mic and an m-audio transit usb. Can I hook up the mic to get input through this and record into pro tools? Or is there something where m-audio isn't compatible with le?

Re: External mic with pro tools 8 LE?
Pro Tools LE will only work with a compatible Digidesign or Avid interface(Mbox, 002 or 003). Pro Tools M-Powered will likely work with the M-Audio Transit with the mic plugged into the Transit. Neither software will recognize a USB mic(you didn't give much detail).

Re: External mic with pro tools 8 LE?
Sorry, let me explain. I have a Shure SM-58 mic connected to an M-Audio transit which is run into the computer. What I was wondering is if this transit will work with pro tools 8 le, or if there's some incompatibility between LE and M-audio in pro tools. I only have an mbox2 mini which doesn't provide for input, so I'm confused about how to get audio input to start recording into pro tools.

Re: External mic with pro tools 8 LE?
MBox 2 Mini most certainly does have a mic input on the back.
M-Audio hardware is not compatible with Pro Tools LE. Only M-Powered and Pro Tools 9.

Re: External mic with pro tools 8 LE?
The one I have is the micro, not the mini, sorry. I'm looking at it now and I'm pretty sure it's only audio out, right? It doesn't make sense that it only allows you to listen to audio coming out but has no line in. So if I have to upgrade to an Mbox mini do I need to buy a new license, or will it work with the one I already have?

Pro Toole LE works with all digi interfaces OS permitting so just plug in a mini and go.
