Hello, I am looking into purchasing a pro tools system, but have some questions I
am hoping someone can answer for me.

First of all, I am currently using a PC with Windows 2000. If I decide in the future
to switch over to a Mac, will my Pro Tools system be transfereable. Is the hardware
compatible with both Platforms. Would I have to pay anything extra to get the appropriate
software if I decide later to switch to a Mac after using my Pro Tools system originally on a PC?

Second, is this a good time to purchase a Pro Tools system? Is there anything looming
in the horizon that I would be better off waiting for? Do you have any new products
coming out soon that I may be interested in?

I am currently looking to get a Pro Tools Mix plus and the ADAT Bridge I/O. Is this
sufficent to run pro Tools or will I need additional hardware? Does that Adat bridge
require you to have one of the analogue I/O's first.

Will my protools system work ok with my M-Audio Delta 1010 that is currently running
in my computer or should I only have Pro Tools on my computer?

Does the Yamaha 01v digital mixer integrate well with Pro Tools?

I appreciate any information you can provide me.

thanks,

Hisham
