Chapter 2: Pro Tools System
Configurations
There are two types of Pro Tools systems: TDM
and LE. These refer to both the Pro Tools soft-
ware and its associated hardware, as follows:
TDM = Pro Tools TDM software for
Pro Tools|HD-series and Pro Tools|24 MIX-se-
ries hardware.
LE = Pro Tools LE software for Digi 002,
Digi 002 Rack, Digi 001, or Mbox hardware.
Pro Tools TDM Systems
Pro Tools TDM systems are available in the con-
figurations shown below. Each system requires
at least one Digidesign audio interface (sold sep-
arately). TDM systems can be expanded by add-
ing Digidesign cards to increase track count, add
to the amount of possible plug-in and mixer
processing, and connect additional audio inter-
faces.
