For Mac Download Aladdin: Updating Your Mbox Firmware to Version 20

The Mbox is a popular digital audio workstation (DAW) interface that allows musicians and producers to record and edit music on their computers. However, in order to use the Mbox with your Mac, you'll need to update its firmware to version 20. This process is relatively straightforward and can be completed using Aladdin Expander.

To begin, plug your Mbox into your computer's USB port. If the file does not automatically expand when downloaded, use Aladdin Expander to expand it. Next, download the Mbox Firmware Updater Rev 20 from the link above. Make sure to quit any open instances of Pro Tools before proceeding.

It's important to note that Pro Tools LE 6.0 or 6.0.1 must be already installed on your Mac in order for the driver to recognize the Mbox. If you don't have this software installed, you'll need to download and install it before proceeding with the firmware update.

Once you've downloaded and expanded the firmware updater, follow these steps:

1. Quit any open instances of Pro Tools.

2. Double-click on the Mbox Firmware Updater Rev 20 application icon.

3. Follow the prompts to update your Mbox firmware to version 20.

In most cases, your Mbox will already have firmware 20 installed. If this is the case, the firmware update will report that no changes were made. This is normal and indicates that your Mbox is up to date.

It's worth noting that the Mbox Firmware Updater Rev 20 application is a Mac-only download. Windows users should refer to the Pro Tools LE 5.3.3 for Mbox on Windows XP Updates page for instructions on updating their Mbox firmware.

For those who are new to using the Mbox, it may be helpful to consult the Pro Tools LE 5.3.3 for Mbox Systems on Windows XP page for additional information and troubleshooting tips.
