What is Avid's Pro Tools? The version of Pro Tools I use is a software application that is installed on a computer. It is used for music composition, recording, editing, mixing, producing and mastering music or sound for film.
Pro Tools has probably been used for the sound, special effects, editing and production of your favorite film/movie, video game, CD, MP3 and music you listen to on the Internet or broadcast radio. Pro Tools is the standard audio production application used by audio professionals throughout the world.
