sw80 « the Best »
Published on 10/29/12 at 23:48Pro Tools 10 is a must have for any serious musician or artist looking to get the best possible sound while working with an industry standard DAW. Pro Tools 10 has 96 tracks and comes with 50 plus plug –ins and effects. It can be used on your Mac or a PC if your computer meets the requirements. The best part about buying this DAW is that if you already own a previous version of it you don’t have to pay full price which is 700 dollars. You can upgrade for about 300 dollars.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Installing it was quicker than I expected, but if you are a first time Pro Tools 10 user it will take you some time to get the hang of it. It can be very complicated and overwhelming at first because it is so in depth and so different than any other DAW that is available. Pro Tools 10 will run good on your computer, I have never experienced any crashes or freezes. It is a rather big program though so you will need to have enough hard drive space to have it and plenty of CPU to run all of the plug-ins.
OVERALL OPINION
Using Pro Tools 10 will keep you in the loop with almost every studio across the world. All major studios use Pro Tools to record with and master songs. So it will make it easy to take your songs from your computer to a major studio and back by just using the PTF files. I am happy that I chose to upgrade to Pro Tools 10 by Avid. I look forward to learning more and more by using Pro Tools 10. There are just so many things you can learn, even though I have been using it for a long time. I feel like I still learn something new every single time that I work with a song in Pro Tools 10.
