Pro Tools Digi 002 rack
I was told by some one that you can use a Focusrite Interface with Protools on a mac. I had thought that Pro Tools us only proprietary items. I currently am running LE 8 though my Digi 002 Rack. I can get a Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 at a very good price. I would think the at the focusrite because it's new would be better but maybe not. Any thoughts?

Re: Pro Tools Digi 002 rack
Pro Tools 9 - 12 can be used with any audio interface, but not your 8LE version; that can only be used with your 002Rack (or one of the other proprietary LE interfaces). You would need to upgrade Pro Tools to get the benefits of using any/all audio interfaces.
Keep in mind that upgrades tend to snowball; hardware upgrades = driver upgrades = software/plugin upgrades = even operating system upgrades are sometimes required. Also keep in mind that if better preamps is what you're after, the 002R that you own can be expanded to include better preamps through the lightpipe and s/pdif connectors.

Low budget 2 channels-ART Digital MPA Low budget 8 channels-Behringer ADA8200 High quality 2 channel-API A2D High-quality 8 channels-Midas XL-48 or Audient ASP800 Lots of other options, but my own personal experience would lead me to these over most others
