Launching Pro Tools LE
When launching Pro Tools LE the first time, you
are prompted to enter an authorization code to
validate your software. (The code begins with
the letters DIGI.)
To authorize Pro Tools LE software:
1 Make sure Mbox Mini is connected to your
computer.
Virtual Instrument Content Installs sample content for AIR virtual instruments.
Virtual Instrument Content is very large
and may take up to 20 minutes to install.
During this time, the progress bar may not
appear to move but your software is still installing. Do not terminate your installation.
Additional Options
The Pro Tools installer provides the following
additional options to install along with
Pro Tools software and plug-ins:
Avid CoreAudio Drivers This option installs a
multichannel sound driver that allows CoreAudio-compatible applications to record and play
back through Avid audio interfaces.
2 Click the Pro Tools LE icon in the Dock (or
double-click the application icon in the
Pro Tools folder inside the Digidesign folder).
3 Enter the authorization code in the dialog
(making sure to type it exactly as printed, and
observing any spaces and capitalization), then
click Validate. (Your authorization code is located on the back of your Pro Tools DVD wallet.)

the following:
• Create a new session from template.
