Do you need to use or activate Pro Tools in order to use the Eleven Rack? I don't have a need and was going to give it to someone.

Nope. You can use it as a stand-alone amp modeler if you want. However, if the person you want to give it to wants to use it with Pro Tools, they either need to already have their own license to the software or buy it...which is like $700. But you absolutely DO NOT need Pro Tools to get amp models out of it. However, whomever you're giving it to DOES need a power amp if they plan on using it in a live rig.

You can use the Eleven Rack without Pro Tools. I use it with Cubase and it works fine. You may run into issues when it comes to updating the firmware though. The ILok key plays a big part for updates.

No you do not need Protools. It can be used as a guitar preamp for direct recording, live use, etc similar to an Axe FX.

No you don't , I use it with Locic pro. If you want to access amps and effects on the computer then yes you will need to install and activate PRO TOOLS. Use can jam this unit live straight into the PA or Daw of your choice for Recording no Pro tools required and you also have controls to different Amp models and Effects and cabinets and mics on the unit it self using the knobs

I am pretty sure that it is. When you set up your audio Interface in ProTools this should come up as Firestudio I believe. I apologize, I haven't used pro tools in years.

No you need the cheaper 'upgrade' version because you are technically upgrading from win8 regular to pro.

Yeah, Mark, yeah. It sucks, I know. The version of Pro Tools you buy might or might not come with its own iLok but you need at least one more because if you have just one and it breaks, you're totally screwed and can't use Pro Tools again until you've replaced it, worked with support from both companies, and all of that BS. You can pay for "better" service, but it's basically just a nightmare any way you go about it.

It's hard to say as that's a pretty broad discussion. Pro Tools is essentially an editing/mixing suite. They're not really interchangeable. But they ARE compatible. You can download files from it onto Pro-Tools no problem.

Hi D. Roberts,I am very sorry to inform you, but this item (Digidesign Eleven Rack) does not come with Pro Tools 10; however, If you buy this item, I will cut you a $50 discount toward the purchase of Pro Tools 10 software.Regards,Pro Audio Source Sales Team

It's probably the same hardware and software as the other site that you looked at. Check and see if the version of pro tools is the same though. It may be the full version of pro tools rather than pro tools express.

The X-10 software (Active Home Pro) is NOT available through either the defunct X-10 site, the new X10 site that seems to be a way to get rid of inventory, nor anywhere else. There is a European version that is not linked to the units available in the US. Do a Google search for the software to confirm the chaos. It's just too bad that the individual who's bought the remnants of X-10 can't resurrect the software or hire someone to do it and give it to confirmed CM15a owners or put it on a CD and sell it. It's been nearly a year since X10 went belly up and it's about time something gets done, legal or otherwise!!!!

If you bought a Eleven Rack Recently in the last 2 months it should have come with PT 11. If it didn't, you got a raw deal.

Is this a upgrade to pro then you need ser numbers to ad to upgrade. If you have the standard or pro full then just follow install with your new cd lic will be on back of cd envelope. Then go to poser site and up date to latest software. Beware that poser is very hard to learn and you will need a lot of extras to really make it work like a pro. I would recomend Daz studio 3D You can do the same as poser and its free and there more sites on learning Daz and extras or cheaper to buy. Hope this works compare Daz 3d and Poser on line at you tube I have them all I like Daz much better easyer to get started and learn.Bob J .St Louis,MO

I love this machine. It is suitable for what it is supposed to do. I stopped using the metal racks because it was too much hassle. I leave it on because I never know when I will need it. I empty it and clean it when needed. Just use it and if you want a fancier model, upgrade.

That sounds like a fantastic question to ask the folks at Apple who don't make it easy on folks to do this stuff. I no longer have a Mac pro... so can't help sorry.

That depends... PT 10 and PT 11 (And I think maybe PT 9) have finally adapted the open market standards like ASIO and CORE Audio. Any Pro Tools versions before that required proprietary Avid hardware... Probably one of the main reasons I use Cubase! But Yes, the current version of PT11 can most definitely interface with the 16.4.2.

Actually you need to upgrade Windows 8 to 8.1 before you can install the pro version (the upgrade to 8.1 from 8 is free). The pro pack box just has an authorization code in it to download and activate the pro features. You actually have to initiate the pro upgrade from the Windows 8.1 control panel and then enter the code so with a previous version of Windows (or none at all) there is no way to initiate the install.

Yes, already been done and working fine. Using Pro with all features. No major issues, but do not upgrade but fresh install as upgrade could cause problems.

I have it working on Pro Tools 10 & 11 and also Reason 7. I would believe it should work with no problem.
