The latest version of the industry-leading software!

This is a special opportunity for registered users of Pro Tools 7.2 or earlier to upgrade to version 7.4 at a reduced cost.

With Pro Tools 7.4, Pro Tools continues to be the de facto standard DAW for recording and mixing, with features that just make sense from a production and workflow standpoint. Most of us would be hard pressed to think of any improvements, but Digidesign has outdone themselves with Pro Tools 7.4, adding features that accelerate the post-production process by enhancing the Avid/Pro Tools workflow. But the new feature that's got everyone talking with version 7.4 is Elastic Time, a set of real-time time-stretching algorithms that yield some of the most fantastic, artifact-free time compression/expansion in the industry.

Digidesign Pro Tools 7.4 At-a-Glance:
  • Stretch Your Sound with Elastic Time
  • Powerful Workflows with the Avid Video World
  • More Great Features

Stretch Your Sound with Elastic Time
Whether you're a musician, composer, music producer, ADR engineer, or sound editor, Elastic Time makes it easy to change tempo or time on the fly. Change the tempo and timing of loops, music, dialog, and other sound files without cutting up audio. Easily create loops from any audio file - even entire compositions - with the help of powerful tempo and transient analysis. And when you import audio files and loops, they automatically conform to match your session's tempo. You can even use REX and Acid loops right in Pro Tools.

To ensure that you get the best results, Elastic Time lets you choose from several high-quality time-stretching algorithms, which deliver the best-sounding processing in the industry, on a per-track basis. Want to hear how a certain audio bit will sound in your song? The new Context Preview lets you easily audition loops and audio files in sync with the tempo of your session. You can also now quantize audio to the session grid or extracted grooves. What's more, you can fine-tune regions with precision control over each individual beat using the new Warp track view and Warp markers.

Powerful Workflows with the Avid Video World
Pro Tools 7.4 software opens up new avenues for working with video editors, bringing Pro Tools|HD and Pro Tools LE users into the Avid workflow to streamline post-production processes. For Pro Tools|HD users, Pro Tools HD 7.4 software and the new Media Station|PT with Video Satellite Option enable you to play back unrendered Avid sequences in sync with Pro Tools while maintaining full audio processing power. Pro Tools HD 7.4 software also provides tri-level sync compatibility with SYNC HD, enabling Pro Tools to resolve to most HD and Slow-PAL reference signals.

Pro Tools 7.4 also lets Pro Tools LE users benefit from the great picture quality, easy navigation, and efficiency of Avid video in the Pro Tools timeline with new support for Avid Mojo SDI with most members of the 003 and Mbox 2 product families. Pro Tools users who have Intel-based Macs can now work directly with Avid Mojo and Avid Mojo SDI. And Windows XP-based Pro Tools 7.4 software users can play and record media directly from Avid Unity ISIS shared storage networks.

More Great Features
If you're thinking of upgrading to Windows Vista Ultimate or Business, Pro Tools LE and Pro Tools M-Powered 7.4 software provide support for both Microsoft platforms (32-bit only). ReWire support has been improved; Pro Tools 7.4 software now accepts MIDI input (both controller and note data) directly from ReWire applications (such as Reason) for recording to a Pro Tools MIDI or Instrument track. Pro Tools 7.4 also brushes up on its language skills with support for language characters in Unicode. That means you can work in any language supported by Unicode (such as Japanese, French, Greek, Russian, and Hebrew) anywhere in the Pro Tools application for labeling and editing text.
