[MPA] Digidesign 002, LE, and Logic Audio advice

[lazy right eye]

Does anyone know anything (or heard anything) about a PT6 Free? Something 
that WILL run in X and NOT require Digi hardware?
I think PTLE Free was an incredible marketing tool for Digi. And now that X 
is starting to see a more robust build, it seems even more important for 
Digi to release a PTLE Free for X. Especially during this bizarre and 
uncertain migration to X. They could really capitalize on this DAW down 
time. Maybe.

I loved being able to record in PT5LE on my G4/500/Digi001, then Target Disk 
Mode those files to my iBook to edit at the beach, in the mountains, 
basically NOT in the studio. But now that I'm in 10.2.5, I have lost that 
ability.  :(

Hey, Daavid. I tried the O02 and realized that I was just more accustomed
to working on the screen itself, so downgraded to an mBox. I'll pick up the
questions I can:


 >Any inkling when OS X version of LE is coming out?

It should be included. If not, get with Digi. You're entitled to it at no 
cost.

 >
 >Does LE work as an editor without the control surface connected?

No, which was one of the deciding factors in downgrading, since I wanted to
edit using my Powerbook. With either the 002 or the mBox, you need the
hardware connected, and the mBox was lighter and smaller. One person has
suggested to me using a separate partition for ProTools Free, another that
I keep both DAE files and install the appropriate one in the system folder
when i want to use PT Free on the road. My solution at present is that I
keep LE/mBox on my main production puter, and use Free on the Powerbook.

Your other questions I'll throw to the next person.
