What I'm trying to say, I guess is, if you get the M-Power version of ProTools which is version 9.0, you would only be able to use that version of PT with M-Audio based hardware. So, in your case you'd be fine, since you have an M-Audio interface, but! here's where the problem may pop up. Say that down the road you want to get a different type interface, say a Tascam, or a Sapphire Focus series or the like... you wouldn't be able then to use it with ProTools MP9. MP9 only works with M-Audio based hardware. It's kind a like back in the days when Digidesign was around, and at that time, they had ProTools L E. That version only worked with Digidesign specific hardware, so say you had a Digi03 interface... then you were fine, but if you ever got something else, be it an interface, a control surface, or a combo of both that wasn't Digidesign branded, you were screwed until you did a crossgrade to the full fledged ProTools standard. If you never see yourself ever getting anything aside M-Audio branded gear, then MP9 may be the way to go, but just know: if you do that, then later change your mind and decide that you want to upgrade to a different type interface or control surface which isn't M-Audio branded, you're going to be out of luck until you buy the crossgrade which is like $399, about the same amount as Mpower 9. And really, ProTools 10 is $699, so you do the math... you get MP9 now, then later crossgrade, that's 399+399=$798, let's jsut call it $800. Now, would you rather do that or pay $699 and be done with it, knowing up front that no matter what, your DAW will work fine with any hardware and not be tied to one specific brand for $99, just call it $100 less in the long run. The better buy I'd say is get the bang for your buck! Yeah, at first it'll hurt like a son of a gun, but if you have to, do what I personally did: go through Sweetwater Sound out of Fort Wayne Indiana. Talk to Christopher Geissler. That guy is absolutely incredible! Tell him Chris Gilland sent you, he knows me really well, don't worry. The thing with that is, you could do 3 easy payments over 3 months. That definitely would probably make it a bit more manageable, and what's nice is, after your first payment, you automatically will get the product. You don't have to wait till the 3rd payment goes through to get it. Now, if you screw up and miss a payment, that's kind a not my problem at that point, LOL! And believe me, they'll hit you hard! $15.00 per? day! late payment, but as long as the funds are there each 3 months, you're fine and dandy. Anyway, Christopher's direct number is: 1-800-222-4700 Ext. 1297. I know he'd be honored! to work with you. He's jsut that type a guy. He's awesome! Anyway, being this is becoming more a ProTools discussion, than a mac discussion, it might not be totally suitable for this list. I highly encourage either you or anyone else on this list to write me privately off list if you have any more questions about ProTools. Eventually, once I get my equipment all patched in correctly where I can do it and patch my Voiceover directly through the line, I'm gonna start offering ProTools one on one Skype or telephone lessons for a very low cost through PayPal. Once I get that more in place, I'll be putting out more information about that. To keep up with the progress, you can follow me on Twitter. You need to follow @clgproductions1 Anyway, my private e-mail address is: ch...@clgproductions.com Take care.

I wouldn't honestly recommend it. Though it's cheaper, you're gonna be really limited as far as hardware is concerned. Your better bet would be to get PT 10. If you wind up buying it, and they give you 10.2, let me know and I'll see if I can dmg you my PT 10.0 DVD, and before anyone bans me from this list, let me say, that is *NOT illegal! You already can get the ProTools 10.2 disc from the Avid web site for free. If he doesn't have an ILok, furthermore, if he doesn't have a Protools 10 license on! that ILok, then regardless if I send him a DVD or not, he wouldn't be able to do anything at all with it. It won't even run without an ILok license, so yeah... it's not like I'd give my license out, all I'd be providing is the DVD media itself. It would be like giving someone a Windows 7 disc but not giving them any product key what so ever. Just the bare dvd only. I'm only doing this as I don't think you even can get the 10.0 DVD anymore, and if he bies it, I'm not sure if it would be 10.0 on the dvd, or whether they'd jump 'em straight to 10.2, but my suspicion is the ladder lamentably. One way're another Keith, if you by PT, let me know, and I'll get you up and runnin.
