TC Electronic today announced a new version of a PCI card for the PowerCore platform. PowerCore Unplugged is the same piece of hardware as PowerCore PCI mkII but without the included plug-ins. This allows the user to compile an entirely individual package of optional high-end plug-ins for any mixing, mastering or production situation. PowerCore Unplugged is also the ideal solution for users, who need further processing power for their existing setup in order to run even more plug-ins simultaneously.
PowerCore Unplugged will ship in October, 2005 at 570 euros (excl.VAT).

Here's a good news about the new Digidesign MBox USB 2 : the Mbox 2 is a native Core Audio device, so it does not need the Core Audio Manager Application. So you can run Pro Tools LE and other CoreAudio applications simultaneously. The Mbox 2 will always work this way.
But please remember that the Original Mbox, Digi 002, and HD will never work this way and will always require the CoreAudio Manager...
