Brendus member Registered: 03/08/11 Posts: 11 Loc: VIC	Hi All, Has anyone been able to get the instruments in the audio suite section. I want to connect my synth and use the vacuum virtual instrument. Digidesign advertised that 5 virtual instruments come with Pro Tools 8 LE. Cheers

Vacuum was included with my PT8LE and works fine with a MIDI controller.

I had to go on to the intallation disk and intall them one at a time. Once you do that, they should be there and you do not need a Midi hooked up to see them, at least i don;t think you do.

Very valuable info! I use the Oxygen25, mostly just for transport controls (which are made exactly the same as the Digidesign hardware control surface w/dedicated transport controls and track up/down buttons) and the mini grand. Works flawlessly and pretty cheap for what it does.
