Default Setting up my retro vintage sounding Pro Tools circa 1990

Hi,

I've been missing the warmth of my old pro Tools system from the 90's so though i would dig it out and start using it again...












A bit of reading...

Looks more like Sound Tools than Pro Tools. But very retro anyway.

Well I guess you're SOL if you have a problem with that system now. I just called the tech support number and it is no longer valid

Neato.

We really need a DAW museum someplace (someplace other than our closets).

Hey, cool! My first Digi system was Sound Tools with a DAT I/O. Then went to DECK.

Talking Re: Setting up my retro vintage sounding Pro Tools circa 1990

Wow I thought I was old :) I've never even seen Sound Tools for Atari! My first setup was an Audiomedia NuBuss card in a Quadra 650 and a DAT machine.

You're kidding! AVID drops support for Sound Tools just like that? No warning? How do they expect to stay in business? AVID--get a clue! It's called Customer Service!

DTS--we need you to weigh in on this!
