In Pro Tools 5 and earlier Mac systems, it is important to use matched
versions of the DAE and the DigiSystem® INIT (DSI) whenever possible.
Mismatched versions can cause a number of problems, including program
errors or unimplemented trap errors.
The following table lists the release dates for most of the DAE and DSI
versions, and indicates the Digidesign or third party application that
each version was released with. Many of these files are DAE/DSI combination
installers which will move your previous versions to the "Obsoleted
Digidesign Software" folder. Manual installations are required where
indicated.

DAE 6.1cs1 Beta Fix - TDM Only
Included on the Pro Tools 6.1 CD in the Beta & Bug Fix folder.
Not included with the Pro Tools 6.1 TDM web updater.
From the included DAE 6.1cs1 Read Me:
DAE 6.1cs1 (TDM Systems Only)
DAE 6.1cs1 is for Pro Tools TDM 6.1 users who are experiencing
buffer underrun or 6031 errors when using the SYNC I/O or
AVoption|XL. This version of DAE will help lessen the frequency
of these errors as long as no RTAS plug-ins are used in the session.
Do not use any RTAS plug-ins with this build of DAE. This is only
a temporary workaround while the root cause of the problem is investigated.
To install DAE 6.1cs1:
- Locate and launch the DAE 6.1cs1 Installer file in the Additional
Files\Beta Software folder on the Pro Tools TDM Installer CD-ROM,
or download from the link here
- Follow the on-screen instructions
- When the installation is complete, restart your computer
To revert to DAE 6.1 on Macintosh:
Re-install the Pro Tools application from the Pro Tools 6.1 TDM
Installer CD-ROM or the Pro Tools 6.1 TDM web updater.
Note: DAE 6.1cs1 will also work with Pro Tools TDM 6.1 Japanese,
although the splash screen dialogues "initializing DAE server",
etc. during launch will be in English.

For Pro Tools and Pro Tools LE 5.0.1 only, and only with recent
Digidesign hardware.
The Motorola 56301 DSP chip used on all 001, MIX and d24 cards
changed in the fall of 2000. Cards manufactured with this chip began
shipping in January 2001. New cards
are identifiable by checking the Mask stenciled on the 56301 Motorola
chip. "K30" (right below the "56301" on the
face of the chip) indicates a new rev of the chip. In contrast,
the previous version of the chip is marked "3F48S". There
is no change in functionality with Pro Tools.
A separate CD with this DSI and DigiTest
5.0.3 was included in the box with all Pro Tools & Pro Tools
LE hardware systems that included these newer cards and shipped
with version 5.0.1 software.
Pro Tools 5.1 includes DigiSystem INIT 5.1 & DigiTest 5.1,
eliminating the need for this special DSI.
