Pro Tools HD

Pro Tools HD is a software updater that brings some pretty cool improvements to the original Pro Tools. It adds features that really help with your audio and video workflow.

More Usable Tracks

One of the first things you'll notice with Pro Tools HD is that you can use way more tracks! If you're on a 3-card Pro Tools HDX system, you can work with up to 768 voiceable audio tracks. And if you have the Pro Tools HD Native system, you still get 256 voiceable audio tracks. That's a lot of options for your projects!

Better Sound Quality

But it’s not just about numbers. Pro Tools HD also steps up your sound quality big time. It helps you capture clear, high-quality audio with almost zero latency. This means you'll hear what you’re recording in real time without annoying delays!

Smooth System Performance

Your computer’s performance gets a boost too! Pro Tools HD expands the disk cache and can load entire sessions into your Mac’s RAM. This makes for smooth and optimized recording and playback sessions.

Edit Like a Pro

You’ll find editing music super easy with tools like Continuous Scrolling, Scrub Trim tool, Replace Clip command, Time Compression and Expansion Edit, Timeline Selection command, and field recorder workflows. It's like having a full toolbox at your fingertips!

Improved Video Workflow

If you're into video, this update is great too! You can display up to 64 video tracks in the timeline and share audio mixes with Media Composer editors using AAF. So collaboration becomes way easier!

Mixer Options Galore

You can mix audio in stereo or surround modes without any hassle. Plus, build sounds and add effects easily thanks to the app's built-in surround panner.

Large Audio Mix Control

The Satellite link feature lets you manage large audio mixes by connecting to 12 Pro Tools HD systems. You can control everything from one device—talk about convenience!

The Bottom Line

In short, Pro Tools HD is an awesome upgrade for anyone using Pro Tools. It expands track options, boosts sound quality, enhances performance with RAM, makes video work simpler, and offers great mixing tools.
