  pro tools authorizations

  Posted by Jason Levy on January 4, 2008 at 5:59 am

  Hi,

  I have been offered some pro tools HD hardware for sale including the transfer of ownership at Digidesign. But the package does not include any software or authorizations.

  I see where the software is available for around $200 – they call it an “upgrade” – but would this package contain all the authorizations needed to operate legitimately? Or would i need to have the authorization from a previous PT version to install and run this “upgrade”?

  I scoured the Digidesign website but it i cannot tell what the answer is from the information they have there.

  Thanks,

  Jason

  In the Digistore on the Digidesign website you can purchase either the full version of Protools HD 7.4 ($199 i believe) or the upgrade from 7.3 ($79). The former should work. Odd that you are being sold a system without any authorizations – I kinda thought they travelled with the core cards…

  Hello Jason,

  from sources inside Digidesign..

  >>>With a full price ($199) TDM software upgrade to 7.4 they will get a full iLok authorization. They will not get the HDpack, nor the Ignition Pack etc
