What is Included in This Download?

• Mbox Updater OSX.rev20
• Mbox Firmware rev20 Read Me.rtf

What Does This File Do?

This software will update your Mbox firmware to version 20, required for OS X. In most cases, your Mbox will have firmware 20 already, in which case the Firmware update will report that no changes have been made.

How Do I Use It?

1. Pro Tools LE 6.0 or 6.0.1 must be already installed in order for the driver to recognize the Mbox.
2. Quit the Pro Tools application if it is open.
3. Download Mbox Firmware Updater Rev 20 from the link above.
4. If the file does not automatically expand when downloaded, expand it using Aladdin Expander.
5. Plug the Mbox into your computer's USB port.
6. Double-Click the application: Mbox Updater OSX.rev20
7. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Note: Apple System Profiler in OS X will not identify the Firmware version installed on your Mbox. If you are having difficulty getting your Mbox recognized with Pro Tools LE 6 in OS X, and you do not have OS 9 to run the Firmware updater below, use this version in OS X to update your Mbox firmware.

Pro Tools LE 5.2.1 also fixes the following three DigiStudio related issues in Pro Tools LE 5.2 for MBox:

Digidesign Mbox USB Driver Update v.1.0.1 For Pro Tools LE (Mac) v.5.2 & 5.2.1

Note: Neither the Pro Tools LE 5.2 CD that originally shipped with Mbox or the download of Pro Tools LE (Mac) v.5.2.1 available at www.DigiProNet.com include this updated USB Driver. This driver will be included with the next revision of Pro Tools LE v5.2.1 CDs included with retail Mbox packages.

What's Fixed with USB Driver v1.0.1?

The USB Driver Update fixes a problem that could result in corrupted audio recordings. Typically, the recorded audio would contain clicks and pops after long periods of recording time. Digidesign recommends that all Mbox users replace their 'Digidesign USB Driver' version 1.0 (located in the System Folder /Extensions Folder) with this version 1.0.1 driver.

When a session is created and/or last saved in Pro Tools LE 5.2 for Mbox, it can fail to open in Pro Tools TDM 5.2 with the following error dialog: 'Could not complete the Open Session command because: unexpected end of stream encountered while trans-lating Collaboration Information'. This problem only occurs in Pro Tools TDM 5.2 and only if the session was never saved in Pro Tools 5.2 LE while connected to DigiStudio.

This has been fixed in Pro Tools LE 5.2.1:

If you are using Pro Tools 5.2 TDM and have a session that exhibits this problem, you can repair that session using the utility application 'CollabInfoFix' included in this download. Once the session has been repaired you will be able to open it in Pro Tools 5.2 TDM.
