Pro Tools hardware
The Pro Tools System
Digidesigns Pro Tools system has always included a software application and
various hardware components. The hardware consists of one or more cards for
the computer along with one or more audio interfaces, optional interfaces for
sync or MIDI, and an optional eight-channel remotely controllable microphone
preampli er. The main software application is a complete recording, editing,
processing, and mixing environment that includes a multi-track waveform
editor, a mixing console emulation, plug-in signal processors, and virtual
instruments and controls to let you record and playback audio from hard disk.
The range of plug-ins available for Pro Tools surpasses that available for
any other platform due to the large numbers of Development Partners that
Digidesign has always encouraged. More or less every kind of processor that
you might wish for is available either from Digidesign or from a third-party
developer.
The Pro Tools software also lets you record and edit MIDI and o ers separate
MIDI Editor and Score Editor windows. It also comes with a comprehensive
collection of signal processing plug-ins and virtual instruments, so it competes
very e ectively with Logic, Digital Performer, Sonar, Cubase, and Nuendo.
As you are about to discover, Pro Tools|HD systems are possibly the most
exible audio workstations that you can buy. You can easily create a customized
system, choosing how many DSP cards, how many channels of input and
output and so forth – expanding as your needs grow. If you want hands-on
mixing, you can add a control surface such as Digidesigns C|24 or the Mackie
Control Universal. And if a medium- or large-format mixing console is more
appropriate, you could go for one of the ICON integrated consoles.
Pro Tools|HD features a 48-bit mixing architecture that provides more than
su cient of the headroom and ‘foot-room that is needed to make sure that
the highest quality is maintained throughout the production process. The
hardware interfaces provide excellent quality to suit most needs and even
higher-quality third-party interfaces are available from Apogee and Prism.
