Reply by: coolout Date:6/8/2004 1:34:23 AM how bad do you want protools? you can get a much better interface for the same amount of $$$ if you don't want to use protools. i've always thought protools to be overpriced considering the unnessary limitations put in protools LE, although digi has tried to loosen up a bit.

Reply by: METAFOR Date:6/9/2004 8:15:40 AM I use midi with the mbox. my radium 61 runs off of a usb cable. so whatever device you are using if you have a interface that goes from midi to usb, or usb straight into your computer. The mbox should read it as a input. I know, it kinda disappointed me for a second, because I had bought the mbox along with my midi keyboard at the same time., but your midi device will work.
