All user reviews for the Avid Pro Tools 10 Education

The Education Edition of Avid’s Pro Tools 10 is a DAW that you can record up to 96 total tracks with. It comes loaded with over 50 plug ins and VST instruments. It can run on a Mac or a PC and installs quickly and easily. In order for you to get this version of Pro Tools you will need to show that you have been enrolled into an official college. I have had this since I was a freshman and purchased it right after my professor who is an engineer told us about this deal. I was happy that I did not have to pay full price for Avid Pro Tools 10. Also it comes with free upgrades for a few years which is a huge bonus because you will not have to spend any money at all for years to come.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Using Pro Tools 10 (Avid) will give you latency free recording and monitoring. You can have any amount of channels of simultaneous ins and outs up to 32 and it can take a ton of different file types like MP3 WAV or AIFF files (and many more). The layout of this version of Pro Tools is very similar to most all of the versions, it is easy to understand if you are already use to working with Pro Tools and if you are a beginner then this is a great place to start.

OVERALL OPINION

I was recommended this software by my professor and now I have a chance to use the same software that the pros use and that we use at school right in my house. It comes with iLok and is ready to go right out of the box. You will need to make sure your computer is up to date and has good RAM or you will run into some problems when working with some of the plug ins and effects. It can really slow down your system if you are on an older computer.

student in the sound, I needed to work properly ProTools (although cubase is a very good software)
I'm not disappointed, the price for students is completely broken, and very affordable (compared to the base price)

I had worked for years on a protools but I had no home. So I already know it works. Simple installation and use, always as intuitive

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

I'm WD7, I have the little fast track pro that works relatively well, with 2 AV40 for the speakers.
The software is very stable and can work in the studio at home.

I almost or very little latency with my config

OVERALL OPINION

I use Pts for 1 year. This software is super intuitive, and mtn with version 10 everything is in French, so for those who understand nothing is even simpler.
Prices are for, I recommance everyone to buy it because it allows a real possibility of mx sound mixing etc.
