Pro Tools Express "Unable to Locate Hardware" on startup
Just as the title says
I have installed and reinstalled Pro tools and the latest drivers for my Mbox mini 2. Windows 10 recognizes the mbox (it appears in the device manager and is usable as an audio output source). Any thoughts as to why pro tools isn't making the connection? Solutions I have tried (will keep updating as I go): - Switching from USB 3.0 to USB 2.0 port (then reinstalling the drivers) - Reinstalling Drivers - Reinstalling Pro Tools - Disabling USB power saving settings Last edited by djl62490; 08-29-2016 at 03:17 PM. |

Well first off PT Express will not work in Windows 10. You need PT12 if you are gonna use Win10.

There are many great DAWs out there. Reaper. Studio One. and many more. Pick one based on what people use you collaborate with, and/or people you know who can help you. Pro Tools First "free" software is so crippled I'd not waste my time on it. You can also rent full Pro Tools (there is no more "LE") with a monthly subscription. Especially if money is tight you should have thought about this before upgrading to Windows 10, or if you had to buy a new computer buy one with an older Windows install or Windows downgrade rights. |
