NEW DAW Software Release

Posted on March 22, 2011 by James Peck

Pro Tools 9

Version 9 of Pro Tools brings us some sought-after improvements to the already Industry-standard DAW software. LE and M-Powered versions are being phased out and replaced by 'Pro Tools 9' and 'Pro Tools 9 HD'.

Some major improvements include:

~ Compatibility with ANY audio interface (not just Avid/Digidesign) - a major gripe with previous versions was the requirement of a digidesign or m-audio interface to operate

~ Multi-track Beat Detective (quantize drum track audio!) - no more submixes! quantize your multi-track drum parts in a flash!

~ Automatic Delay Compensation - definitely missing from previous versions. with intense processing this feature becomes necessary!

~ Full "Import Session Data" - great for importing a mix from a previous session with the same I/O setup

~ Support up to 192khz sample rate - for the audiophile recording 2 minute cymbal decays

~ Record up to 32 simultaneous tracks - for those recording larger bands!

~ MP3 Export included

~ Time code ruler included (That’s good for all you people doing audio to film)

Version 9 is virtually identical to 8 in terms of GUI/interface, but the added features definitely put PT9 on the 'to-buy' list.

Crossgrades from LE are $259.99, while the full version clocks in at $629.99. Keep in mind current MBOX models are still bundled with Pro Tools 8 LE.
