Software and Audio Interfaces
More Pro Tools Options
Pro Tools is the most popular,
most widely used audio creation
platform on the planet. Nearly
every award-winning album,
television show, and film was
created using Pro Tools. So why is
Pro Tools also found in more home
and professional studios than any
other music creation solution?
Simple: Pro Tools empowers you
to achieve professional results with
minimal effort.
®
If you’re just getting started or only need a streamlined feature set,
you may want to choose one of our other easy-to-use Pro Tools
solutions—Pro Tools MP and Pro Tools SE. Designed for use with
select M-Audio interfaces, Pro Tools MP software provides many of
the same features and workflows that make Pro Tools the top choice
of today’s audio pros (see page 9 for more information). Thanks
