What was the first computer Pro Tools (Sound Tools) run on.
Hallo All,
I'm doing some research for an historical project on DAW's. On wikipedia I found that "Sound tools" later to be rebranded as Pro Tools 1 was first released for an Apple computer. My question is what system exactly was it. Apple II Apple IIgs Macintosh II Etc. Here is the article on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_audio_workstation I hope someone has this knowledge and could provide the answer. If someone has foto's of the packaging, screendumps, manual or the card itself. I would be more than delighted. With regards, xyzt |

I bought Sound Tools 2 weeks after it was introduced, and bought a Mac IIx to put it in.
Been using PT ever since! Jeff D. |

Sound Designer for the Emulator II worked with just my MacPlus (serial interface) in 1986
I also had a version of it for the Ensoniq Mirage. This was at least a year or 2 before Sound Tools.

Good lord - I can't imagine how that would work. I used to run out of RAM after less than an hour's worth of programming (back when you could actually write line code). SoundTools wouldn't have been allowed to use many "tools" on this machine.

In 1988, my first system was Sound Tools 2 on a Mac IIci. At that time, I used a secondary program call Deck, that gave me a 4 track editor, and Opcode Studio Vision for Midi production. I've been a Pro Tools guy ever since.

I also used a DAT-IO, eventually adding Samplecell II. What a great rig, all-in-all. Bought a 1GB hard drive for $1400 or something outrageous. Yikes, we have evolved! -tv
