Default Can you use an M Audio interface with regular PT LE 8 sofware?

My friend bought an Mbox mini w/ PT LE 8 software. Works great.

But now he's aquired an M Audio Profire 610 and PT won't see the interface. Does he need a special version of PT 8 software to run the Profire interface? Is there PT 8 M-Powered software? Or should the software that came with the Mbox mini work fine?

Thanks in advance for any help

Thanks Benoni, that's what we were afraid of.

Just curious, why would M-Powered software be $100 more expensive than the regular LE software? Is there a difference other than being able to access M-Audio interfaces?

I suspect its mostly market-driven. Maybe its because the M-Audio interfaces work with ANY recording software?

I saw that MACKIE had a "universal audio driver" that was supposed to let their Onyx-firewire consoles work with Pro Tools.
But again, it's just for M-powered. Anybody try that one yet?
