Original MBox to be dropped
Just a note that Digi made a EOSS Announcement regarding the support of the original Mbox and some other hardware today.

Re: Original MBox to be dropped
It is a good thing I use my MBox to run Reaper then. Again Digi lets me down. Why drop support for a perfectly good piece of hardware? I know all the typical reasons, but come on, the mbox is NOT an outdated device.

Re: Original MBox to be dropped
Does this mean my original MBox will not work with future PTLE upgrades? or does that just mean that technical support will not answer our questions?

I'm guessing that the want to free up some coders time which could be good. A LOT of us started with MBoxes.

Re: Original MBox to be dropped
Well, as long as they support my MBox Pro for years to come, I should not complain. It's better than the original MBox anyway. I just wanted my original MBox around so I could turn on Pro Tools to edit sessions if my MBox Pro was not available

Simultaneous analogy and digital I/O with MIDI to boot, right you are.

Re: Original MBox to be dropped
I'll be sad if the MBOX isn't supported anymore. I've had mine for 6 years and still use it when I'm on the road, or at home. It's still a vital bit of kit for me...for editing...

Re: Original MBox to be dropped
What a waste of time. I signed up for the Beta testing. Useless now since the mbox isn't supported with it. Doesn't seem very fair, either. If you're going to drop a piece of hardware from your support, do it at an even release (ie. PTLE 7.0, PTLE 8.0...), not half way through updating a version of software. That's messed up. So now we mbox users have to upgrade hardware or else never get to use it on a 64-bit platform?
FOR SHAME, DIGIDESIGN. That's a good first strike in my books. I knew the mbox would be dead soon, but in the middle of version 8.0.x releases? Why not wait until version 8.3 is coming out in the future? Why in the middle of updating a current version?
