Pros
ProTools earned the reputation of being the best DAW for a reason in the 90s and 2000s, and it’s still one of the best.
It includes many features to mix and fine tune your recordings- making the sound clear and of great quality.
I like the fact that pro tools comes with so many easy to use plugins which is great for mixing vocals and making beats.
Cons
This has not been the case and could be that Pro Tools is having a problem with my new Macbook Pro M1 chip.
The only downside with this software is that it takes a bit of time to learn how to use, but I don't know if I'd really call that a downside.
The few times that happened it was new plugin related. If you setup your workstation with the right hardware, no bs, and use it just for working.

If you want industry quality, You Need Pro Tools

Reviewed 3 years ago

Pro Tools is my #1 program for anything that I need to do as it pertains to audio. There is no 2nd best option.

Pros

Pro Tools is the crux of my recording studio. From recording, to editing, mixing, and mastering, basically all things audio, I need and love to use Pro Tools for it. I believe it has the most user-friendly interface and functionality.

Cons

At times, Pro Tools can be a RAM hog so it's vital to ensure you have enough RAM or you may have to upgrade for it to be at its best.

The Real Standard for Audio Recording and Music Production

Reviewed 2 years ago

Pro tools is my audio editor because it's reliable, and includes all plugins, and tools required to deliver my productions. It shines in audio quality, and works pretty well with any audio interface in the market. Absolutely a must for any audio editor/engineer today.

Pros

Very accurate for editing. Best sound processing, all the tools you need to deliver a professional audio media are included in the subscription.

Cons

Requires a lot of memory installed on your system, but once it's ok, it will be running pretty well.

A good entry level DAW

Reviewed a month ago

I've used this program to record, edit, and make commercial music.

Pros

It has a lot of basic functions that any person using a digital audio workstation would need to be successful with recording and editing music.

Cons

Doesn't have all the features that may be necessary in terms of mastering and mixing music.

Love Pro Tools. Makes my day better using it and making it work for me.

Pros

Easy to use. Easy to navigate. Great workflow options. Ability to learn the software and implement into daily tasks and activities.

Cons

Video engine needs desperate work. Should be compatible with all video formats.

Pro Tools HD OMNI

Reviewed 2 years ago

Satisfactory since 2014

Pros

I've been using Pro tools since 2010 and since then it improved by a great margin.. and by 2014 I had the most satisfaction out of it when I bought the Pro Tools HD OMNI and integrated it into my studio. that made a great difference in quality, stability and flow of work.

Cons

To have superior performance you should switch to IOS ( which I did).
