AudioDesk 4 now available - free for MOTU interface owners

Was on MOTU.com this morning and noticed this.
AudioDesk 4 FREE DOWNLOAD for all MOTU audio interface owners
http://www.motu.com/download
Finally, a Windows version, too.
If it's like the Mac version, it will not work without a MOTU interface. This might be useful for troubleshooting, too.
BTW, if you have DP 8 for Windows, you do not need this download. AudioDesk is an audio only (no MIDI) 'lite' version of Digital Performer for owners of MOTU hardware.

It's been there for a few weeks.
What do you mean about not needing this download if you have the DP 8 for Windows? How are things different from the Mac versions?

He's posting this in the DP [Windows] forum, so the assumption is that DP Windows users are reading this and they don't need AudioDesk if they already have DP. Might be good to post this in the MOTU Hardware forums also I guess.

OK, I see. The same advice applies to Mac users. I thought there was some Mac / Windows difference I hadn't noticed.

I thought that's where I posted it–oops. Yes, it should be moved there.

Mac users have had AudioDesk since v.1 – how many of us first came to DP via the upgrade path besides me? Old news, I figure.
Although MOTU hardware has been available to Windows users for many years now, AD-4 is the first bundled DAW for those owners.

I should look at the feature set again. I wonder what efficiencies might be gained for remote work with borderline/challenged computers.

Has anyone got this to install on Windows yet?
I've had several tries so far and always get fatal error 0x80070643 after less than 5% of the install process.
Have you seen this error. Did you figure out how to fix it?
Thx

Thanks Mike
I'm on it. Might take a while. Seems like error 0x80070643 is something of a bucket code for a number of different issues. So I'm going to be careful and take my time. Don't want to make things worse given that everything else is currently hunky dory.
I've already run the MS NET framework scan utility on all my versions and I get a clean bill of health on all of them. So that's one potential cause down.
Plenty more to go.....

Anyone got it working on 7 or 8.1?

The C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{3CEB86EC-F7BC-4E97-BD2D-B842C842DF93} folder and package ADData.msi is probably missing in the install.

I recently got a Microbook II, got it going, then enthusiastically installed AD hoping to jump right in and start recording. My AD 4.01.64520 installation "works" on Windows 7 32 bit, but crashes every time I try to point to my Native Instruments plug-ins. I opened up a tech support ticket for this and they could duplicate the issue. So I'm hoping for an update someday. By the way, it works fine in the DP demo I downloaded.
So I was hoping to spend my energy on the learning curve and trying to get up to speed, not trying to get the software to just work. Now, I'm frustrated enough that I am looking at other entry level DAWs that are more Windows friendly. Hrmph.

Audio Desk to DP is priced as an Upgrade. Just saying...
