One of the packages I keep in my professional audio toolkit is Pro Tools. I originally started using it so that I could make use of Source Connect, but I’ve grown to really like working with Pro Tools for more complicated audio production projects. I don’t do a ton of them each year, but when I do, it’s a great piece of software.
So, if you are interested in Pro Tools at all, you’ll want to know that Pro Tools 8 is now officially announced.
