- Dig (on Mac OS X and Linux) and nslookup (on Microsoft Windows) are the primary command-line tools for troubleshooting DNS issues. While web-based tools are convenient and easy to use, it is often faster to use a command-line tool on your own system. The exact steps to do this depend on your computer's operating system.

The following iMac G4 models are compatible, but have not been fully tested and qualified with Digidesign Digi 002 Rack systems and Pro Tools LE 6.4. These models may be able to provide full track count performance, however, they cannot be guaranteed to do so. Your performance and track count may vary depending on the processor count and speed.

Additional Requirements
System Software
- Pro Tools LE 6.4 is officially supported on Mac OS X 10.3.2, 10.3.4, and 10.3.5 (Panther)
- Mac OS X 10.3.3 has not been fully tested with Pro Tools and is not recommended
iLok Authorized Plug-Ins
- Although not required with Pro Tools installation, an iLok USB Hardware Key may be required for installation of some plug-ins and optional software applications
Hard Drives — Audio Storage Requirements
Although limited recording and playback of audio tracks may be possible using the internal drive in the iMac, a separate dedicated audio hard drive is highly recommended for maximum performance and track count.
Firewire Hard Drives
- For best results, follow the guidelines on the DigiDrive FireWire 80 Requirements
Maximum Performance Guidelines
- Recording to the system startup drive is not recommended or supported
- When using FireWire storage with Digi 002 Rack systems, connect the Digi 002 Rack and the drives to separate FireWire ports if possible
- If only one port is available, connect the drives to the CPU using a 1 meter firewire cable, then connect the Digi 002 Rack to the drives
Known Incompatibilities & Issues
- The Movie Offset feature affects both the QT Movie output to DV and the Onscreen movie
- If users want to use Japanese fonts in their sessions, they will not be able to use HFS (standard) drives – only HFS+ formatted drives
- Sometimes when opening a session that was based on a PT 3.2 format session, the following error may occur when Restoring IO paths: Time type mismatch occurred in 'Time_Typed.cpp' line 370. A reboot may be necessary if this occurs
- System instabilities and performance issues can occur when using MIDI control surfaces in conjunction with Pro Tools 6 and 3rd party MIDI interfaces. For best multiport MIDI performance, we recommend using Digidesign's MIDI I/O. (only if additional MIDI ports are required beyond the 16 in/32 out built into the Digi 002 Rack)
- Pro Tools LE core systems cannot be combined, and multiple units are not supported. For instance:
- A Digi 002 and Digi 002 Rack cannot be used together on the same computer at the same time.
- 2 Digi 002 Rack units cannot be used on the same computer.
- Digi 002 faders cannot be used with any other system, including the 002 Rack.
- Pro Tools 6 does not work in the OS 9 'Classic Mode'. You must choose Mac OS X as your Startup Disk.
