If you already have an activation code (an official license) for Pro Tools LE8 it will be no problem to download and install the needed versions finally.Īt first you will have to buy a disk containing an original OSX Snow Leopard 10.6 to be able to install this version of OSX on your machine. The best working, most stable and most current set up for the use with an 003R (had myself one back in the days as well) will be OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.8
