I can only comment on the use of DVTK on an PTLE system, not as an Avid add-on, althought I'm pretty sure they would function the same way. DVTK is what really makes PTLE work for audio post at all. It's price is kind of out of proportion to what just the basic MBox PLTLE systems cost, but once you look at what it adds to the system then you can get your mind around the costs. It's possible to do audio post w/o the DVTK stuff, but it is a lot more efficient with it. TC operations, TC ruler, 48 tracks, some plugs etc. You may disagree w/ Digi's pricing structure, but for what compared to a TDM PT system isn't a lot of money you can do a great deal of real work with it.
