Avid Pro Tools|HDX

 system includes Pro Tools HD DAW software, HDX DSP-acceleration card and HD I/O Omni audio interface. By far, Avid Pro Tools|HDX system is the most powerful, versatile, and professional DAW system to ever hit the recording world.

Avid Pro Tools HD 10 is the most comprehensive audio and music production environment to date. Powerful new AAX plug-ins, ultra-fast workflows, and over 50 more exciting new features give you more flexibility than ever before. Whether you run a recording facility, editing suite, or post-production house, Avid Pro Tools HD 10 is going to rock your world!

Avid HDX card is like having about the equivalent of an HD3 or HD4 system on a single card. To put it mildly, that's a ton of DSP power for your DAW! What's more, there's a separate FPGA processor for your mix bus, so all of your HDX card's DSP power is dedicated to running plug-ins. Each HDX card gives you 256 voices, a full four times the routing capacity of an Accel card. That means you can freely use Avid's new AAX plug-ins, without worrying about running out of voices.

Digidesign HD I/O Omni digital audio interface features premium analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters that deliver high audio fidelity, extensive dynamic range, super-low jitter, and the lowest possible latency. Built-in sample rate conversion and a soft clip feature allows for worry-free performance, while Curv, a built-in soft-knee limiter catches even the fastest transients.

When the Pro Tools software doesn't need to be launched or even the computer turned on, the HD OMNI features a built-in, customizable, 14-input monitor mixer, allowing for the continued monitoring of external sources including keyboards, drum machines, and digital music players, independently from the recording setup.

The HD OMNI offers performance, dependability, and control of all inputs, outputs, and routing right from the Pro Tools software interface. This digital audio interface and Pro Tools HD hardware will function with other DAW software via full support of Core Audio and ASIO drivers.
