well.... the thing is this...
If you want the Full Blown PT TDM system... then you must invest thousands to get PCI Farm cards (hold DSP chips) and also purchase the software and interface. ProTools doesn't like working with other third party interfaces so you must have Digidesign hardware to use ProTools. Many people hate PT because of this. You can use other apps like Logic per say with digidesign hardware though.. But... on the plus side... you can go for either a Mbox (cheapest), Digi001 (a bit more) or the Digi002 (still cheaper than a full blown TDM system) and it comes with a version of ProTools called PT LE. It has most of the same functions as the TDM system but limited to 32 tracks and minus some other little features. So you pay a bit more for a great quality interface and the PT app comes free with it. Now which of these devices best suits your needs is dependent on how many simultaneous inputs and outputs you need and whether you want PCI card interface, USB or firewire.
