Updated Pro Tools Free Listing

Hi,

I've updated the listing to remove download link.

We're keeping the page here for any people who still use the software and want this forum for tips and advice.

Jason.

Why is this still listed?

ummmm... why is this still listed????

The product no longer exists so why are you wasting our time with a dead link?

Re: Why is this still listed?

Maybe because the message board is still active .......

PTfree MIDI issue

Hi,
When I enable MIDI beat clock, the MIDI beat clock doesnt remain checked (check mark) in the MIDI drop down menu. I can record MIDI info, but am unable to send to output. AMD duron 1100mhz, 20GB op drive, 80GB rec drive, WinME - thanx

It works!!!

I have spent the last couple of weeks, tearing my hair out trying to get this to work without DAE errors. I have tried dual booting; Windows 98 and Windows Me; VMWare and MS Virtual PC... I have finally got it to work.

You need:
Windows XP installed
Microsoft Virtual PC 2004
Windows 89 installation disk
Pro Tools Free

Install Virtual PC, install Windows 98 onto that (Virtual PC will deal with all the video and audio drivers...hopefully), then install Pro Tools Free onto Windows 98.

I have tried Windows Me with a dual boot, with VMWare and with Virtual PC and every time, Pro Tools Free crashed while opening, so I can only assume that Pro Tools Free is NOT compatable with 'Me.

Crashin on XP when launching

Got Problems with PT LE 6.4.
My system is XP Home with Penium4 1GB RAM and 3,2GHz. The free HD space is 12,4 GB. I've installed PT succesful. Bad everytime when I try to launch it collapses my system and reboots. Got someone a clue what is the problem?

Re: Crashin on XP when launching

PT Free doesn't run on XP - it was written for 98...

Re: Crashin on XP when launching

I was just wondering if anyone could give me advice on recording just an acoustic guitar and vocals. Do i need a microphone plugged to my computer, and then one of these recording programs? or is there other ways?? again, i just need a simple recording method

I had this same problem!

I had this same problem. you have to uninstall pro tools 6.4. Then go to http://archive.digidesign.com/download/audiodrivers/xp/ and download the audio driver at the bottom of the page. After you install the audio driver then reinstall pro tools 6.4 and it should run smooth.

PT free/Windows ME/and what 4 track in hardware do you recommend

This is my first dealing with Pro tools ever. I simply want to cost effectively move 4 track recordings into the pro tools environment for mixing. Currently I can get two channels of analog in via the 1/8 inch input that was already on my PC. Can someone advise me about getting 4 tracks in at the same time.

Is there any way to override the hardware in PT for XP, so it starts and can edit and work with files?

Pro tools m powered m audio forum

Pro tools is just a good software, like logic, motu, tascam, express, etc...but and now??
I need learn computers to make music? I need learn how to assemble a computer to make music? I need to know WINDOWS CONFIGURATIOS, DRIVERS, DLL FILE, ALL THIS STUFF?? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Joke, pure jpke...But im a composer, i play bass, keyboards and sing...
First, how to record my music??? Good question...Back 30 years ago...Pnly one way...musiuc recorded by tap[e machine !! Easy and cool huh ??
Today we have studios with tape machines analogic system, but, very very expensive, $$$$$$$ money to do this recording sessions in a studer 2 inches machine??? No way, forget it !
Second option....Buy a portable digital recorder....
I have one, 8 tracks, good sound, but...always need more clarity and powerful on mixsdown...you need a good pre amplifier, tbe amplifier to conect ypours mics, and instruments...
Another problem is the price of a good one tube-pre-amplifier...
But, tge third option
...THE COMPUTER HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ok, we need buy a computer with compatibility with the hardware>>? Or we need a hardware compatibility with software...
When i read tecnical pages of compatibility computer systems to operation with the company software, i frustrating myself...
Each 6 months the system was in a museum HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Digi 001, oh my god, the revolution of recording over the world....NOW WE HAVE PROTOOL V. 67.7.7 hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Ok, streight to the point....Back in the recording sessions....GOOD FOR MUSICIANS MAKE THIS OWN RECORDING SESSIONS IN OUR HOUSES, GET IT ????MAKE THE BACK UP CD WITH THE SESSIONS AND GO TO A PRO STUDIO TO MIX IN A DECFENT SSL AUDIO MIXBOARD OR NEVE CONSOLE GET IT MOTU, DIGIMAUDIO , CAKEWALK>>????? SIMPLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Computer will be a necessary thing for us musicians recording our music in our homes and go to mix in a pro studio!

But have the guys which copy and paste samples, ok , electronic music, good too....
I dont have nothing against this people getting things pre-recordeds, copying, expanding and pasting music pieces..BUT, the real music come from your heart, you and your instrument...RECORDING THINGS IS ANOTHER QUWSTION...
i hope this audio softwares down the price, to majority of ppl can buy and try to learn how recording their musics...huh ?
Ok Ok, im a litle bit philosopher today, but the real qustion is WHEN AVID, MOTU AND DAMN HELL COMPANIES WILL SPEAK SAME LANGUAGE WITH THE DAMNED WINDOWS AND MACINTOSH >?>? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
All by money ?? huh, maybe....
If this companies can together trade knowledgement to build compreensive and easy tools to the musicians will be very good thing in the world...
If you dont have money follow this steps to record your music...
Take a litle room in your house...( you need a studio, or an quiet room to make your music, huh >? )
No money to spend in sonic solutions for your studio, no no...al this forums about how to do control rooms is bullshit

Sorry there is no free version for Windos XP, however <a href="http://www.digidesign.com/products/le/index.cfm?content=/products/sw/index_le.cfm">Pro Tools LE</a> and <a href="http://www.digidesign.com/products/hd/index.cfm?content=/products/sw/index_tdm.cfm">Pro Tools TDM</a> (both are currently version 6.7) will work on XP.

All Pro Tools 6.7 software requires a Digidesign-approved Pro Tools|HD, Pro Tools|HD Accel, Digi 002, Digi 002 Rack or Mbox system running on Windows XP or Mac OS X.

HTH,
Jason.
