I try to limit posts to synths only, but I'll make an exception for this. Pro Tools has finally gone native. Video below."The Next Generation of Pro Audio Production
Open yourself to the possibilities. Pro Tools 9 redefines the world’s most popular, most advanced music and audio production platform with a completely re-architected, open version of Pro Tools software, giving you what you asked for—and so much more.
Work with an audio interface—or without. Create bigger, better-sounding mixes with more tracks, Automatic Delay Compensation, and other pro features included as standard. Open your workflow to projects created in other audio and video software—and to the entire Avid Artist Series and Pro Series (formerly Euphonix) console/controller line. With Pro Tools 9, you can compose, record, sequence, edit, and mix the way you want—in more ways than ever.
Work the way you want
Get the flexibility of using Pro Tools 9 with your favorite Avid audio interface or third-party Core Audio- or ASIO-compatible interface—or use Pro Tools 9 completely standalone for easy on-the-go creation.
Create bigger, better mixes
Develop larger, more complex projects, with up to 96 or 192* simultaneous audio tracks, 128 instrument tracks, 512 MIDI tracks, 256 internal busses, and 160 aux tracks. See all track specifications.
Be more creative with coveted professional tools
Work efficiently and get the best sonic results with Automatic Delay Compensation, multitrack Beat Detective, full Import Session Data dialog, DigiBase Pro, and other separately priced add-ons—now standard.
Collaborate with others more easily
Team up with other creators, editors, and mixers easily—with built-in OMF/AAF/MXF file interchange support, you can exchange projects created in other audio and video software with Pro Tools and vice-versa.
Get more options to grab hold of your mix
Along with C|24 and ICON*, you can now use Avid Artist Series and Pro Series consoles and controllers to enhance your editing and mixing workflow, thanks to added EUCON integration.
Work with picture in more ways
Expand your post production capabilities with powerful features now included as standard, such as the Time Code Ruler, OMF/AAF/MXF interchange, variable stereo pan depths, and updated 7.1 surround panner*.
Boost your power with Complete Production Toolkit 2
Get the Pro Tools HD software feature set**—without a Pro Tools|HD or Pro Tools|HD Native system—with the Complete Production Toolkit 2 option."

Dare I say that some of the new features are a day late and a dollar short, compared to other DAWs?
ReplyDeletewell, you could... but i think it is a bad comparison. there is no daw in the world that has the scalability and sample rate accuracy to sit even remotely close to PT in a high end pro environment.
ReplyDeletewell, i'm sure educational facilities will appreciate the native version but limited track count, no AU/VST support means you are stuck using a wrapper or something like vienna ensemble pro for running anything but RTAS plugs... does it have plug in delay compensation?
ReplyDeletei really don't get the track count limits. it's arbitrary and stupid.
I don't get it? Who does really care about this, other than educational facilities? The rest of us aren't going to suddenly switch to PT now...
ReplyDeletestill requires an ilok too. the "pro" community who already use pro tools HD systems i'm sure will appreciate another option for an editing bay or whatever but they are about 3 years too late for most people.
ReplyDeletei bet some people will get it just to be compatible or be able to advertise "pro tools" in their crappy craigslist advert.
So can you run the Gucci plug-ins only available for TDM?
