Owners of both Digi002 and Digi002R were a little concerned when Avid put these in the “might work” list of approved interfaces. Anyway, Eric Johnson has taken the plunge with Pro Tools 11 and reports are postive; here is guide to how he got up and running! Thanks Eric, you’re a star.
A: The Digidesign CoreAudio Driver for Mac OS X 10.4 'Tiger' has not been tested with Mac OS X 10.3 or 10.2. We recommend that you use the correct version of the driver for your version of Mac OS X. The Digidesign CoreAudio driver version 6.9 for Mac OS X 10.3.x can be downloaded here: Digidesign CoreAudio Driver 6.9 for Panther. We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us. The 003 As Controller. The 003 is designed to function as a flexible MIDI control surface for software other than Pro Tools, and its MIDI Map buttons allow you to specify what messages its various controls should send when you put the 003 into MIDI mode.The 003 supports two different banks of MIDI Map presets, corresponding to MIDI Map buttons A and B, and you can edit, name and recall custom.

In the hope it might be helpful to someone else, here is how I updated my Pro Tools system on Mac OS X Mountain Lion from Pro Tools 10 to Pro Tools 10.3.6 and Pro Tools 11. My Mac Pro is a 2008 8-core (dual 2.8GHz quad-core) ID 3,1 w/16GB RAM and a plethora of disk volumes, and my interface is a Digi/Avid 002 console. Neither my computer nor my interface are officially supported by Avid for Pro Tools 11, however they’re working. Of course I plan to replace both when I am able, but for now I’m thankful for the extended life I’m getting from my existing gear.
Before this upgrade, I was running Mac OS X 10.8.4, Pro Tools 10.3.5 and I was using the 002/003 Drivers 10.3 (aka v9.0r3 w/ updated installer).
I began by downloading the Pro Tools 10.3.6 disk image, the Pro Tools 11 installer disk image, the Audio Plug-ins 11 Update zip, the AIR Creative Collection 11 disk image, the 002/003 Family v11 disk image and the Pro Tools Demo Session 11 zip.
I was fortunate to already have my Pro Tools 11 bundle license on my main iLok. I recently took advantage of the great deal on the Eleven Rack with Pro Tools which provided me with the free update to Pro Tools 11. I had received the iLok asset upon registration. I know that for many there was great frustration as it appears the Pace servers were once again inundated with the volume. The Eleven Rack is still in the box at this time, but I’m planning to put it into a portable rack.
I first ran the Pro Tools 10.3.6 installation. When that finished, I restarted the system. I’ll omit some of the requisite restarts in my blow-by-blow, but trust me, the process required more than a few restarts. Next, I mounted the Pro Tools 11 disk image and dragged the application to my applications folder (the new way to install). Next, I ran the update/installer for the AIR Creative Collection v11. I followed that with the all of the applicable plug-in installers from the Avid Plug-Ins 11 update. I copied the Pro Tools 11 Demo Session to my sessions volume and finally I ran the 002/003 Family Drivers v11.
Digi 003 Driver Windows 10
After the final restart, I found that I had a listing for “Avid 002” along with “Avid CoreAudio Device” in my list of audio devices. I remounted the disk image for the 10.3 drivers, but there was no uninstall option. After a bit of research I found the instructions on Avid’s site to manually uninstall. After removing the Avid CoreAudio.plugin from /Library/Audio/Plug-ins/HAL and Avid CoreAudio Manager from /Applications/Avid/Pro Tools, I restarted one more time and found that everything was happy.
The first launch of Pro Tools 11 took a long time, but it eventually loaded and presented the Quick Start screen. As mentioned previously, my Mac Pro is not officially supported for Pro Tools 11. When I tried to play the Demo Session, I got a “not enough CPU” message. After disabling several instances of Vacuum from a few tracks, I was able to playback and move around the session. Contrary to earlier concerns, all of the control surface and interface functions of the 002 console are working. The eight CPU meters in the System Usage window all bounced around well below any limits. I have not yet had an opportunity to really determine exactly what caused the excess CPU demand that triggered the initial error.
I’ve opened other sessions and done some light work in the last 24 hours and thus far I’m very pleased. I have updated my Blue Cat Audio plug-ins and a few others to their new 64-bit AAX versions, but I have quite a few more that still need to be updated. That’s a work-in-progress.

I have been pleasantly surprised that, despite earlier predictions, I am able to use my aging Digi 002 and Mac Pro with the new 64-bit goodness and power of Pro Tools 11. I hope this post is helpful to other members of the community.
| Hi All New to Studio One forum,I am using pro tools 11 at the moment but thinking of having a go at Studio One, my question does the digi 003 rack work with studio one as an interface, I am on OSX. Kind Regards Mark. |
| I'm gonna say yes, but you can see for yourself, download the demo and give it a try. |
| thanks for the reply, but be good to hear from others that are maybe working with the 003 rack on mac osx. Cheers |
| Studio One 2 will access any audio hardware device via the manufacturer-supplied ASIO (Windows PC) or Core Audio (Mac OS X) device driver software. So as long as you can get the Core Audio driver, you should be good to go. Though, as musician2373 mentioned, downloading the demo is really the quickest, easiest way to confirm it for yourself. You can find that download on the following page: http://www.presonus.com/products/studio-one/download However, if you'd like to try and wait for a response from someone else with a setup similar to yours, this is certainly the right place!

| so will the Digidesign/Avid Digi 003 Interface work with Studio One Version 3.0? Im looking for a new interface and I saw one of these for a good price. I was either going for one of these or possibly an 8 Channel line mixer with USB. I need something a bit larger than 2 channels for my own production although I was going to pickup a 2 channel persons again to use for portable recording sessions Follow me online Facebook.com/bSideinacoma Instagram: b-side_malone Music: b-side.bandcamp.com Email: b-sidebeats@sbcglobal.net Contact me for beats or production, song recording & mixing, scratching, or any questions. |
| Check this page here for driver info: http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/en_U ... 03-Drivers Providing you have the right OS version e.g. looks like on a MAC it only goes up to Sierra for example you should be OK. (Note: Don't rule out High Sierra or even the later MAC OS either. Just because they are not listed in the Avid drivers page does not mean they won't work either. It won't hurt to just install the driver anyway. You won't do any harm. It will either work or not and most often it will!) You might be able to map some of the faders and things to Studio One as well. Don't forget there are total of 8 inputs. 4 Mic and 4 Line and 8 outputs as well. I assume you don't mean the rack but the desktop version. 003 has an optical connection both ways which means if you add something like the Behringer 8200 which will give you an extra 8 inputs and outputs for very reasonable money you can expand your 003 out a fair bit. The Behringer 8200 has Midas preamps in it by the way if you are wondering about quality. It sounds excellent. So you could end up with 12 Mic Ins or 16 line INs and 16 outs. Would not be hard to get 4 channels of Mic Pres either (from a reasonable mixer with direct outs) and end up with 16 Mic input channels. 003 also has Midi IN and 2 Midi OUTS which means up to 32 channels of external synth hardware can be addressed at once. You could add a few powerful external synths to this too. Otherwise look at some of the excellent PreSonus interface range. Things like Quantum maybe. With one or two ADAT optical Mic preamps attached you can end up with 24 input channels. This will be a more modern interface with better sounding converters than the 003 era. Not only that Quantum offers blistering latency which is great for input monitoring ultra fast with no delays. You may find for very fast input monitoring the 003 may not be so great but a modern interface will be. Quantum also has very tight integration with Studio One. Remote control of your Quantum! Or maybe the Studio Series 1824 for example might be a good alternative. Not so expensive. Half the price here. Still a great interface. Please add your specs to your SIGNATURE.
