AudioMediaInternational Reviews Avid Pro Tools 12.5

By Jim Bask 0 Comment June 28, 2016

pro tools 12.5There has been much talk about the DAW’s new Cloud Collaboration feature, but does it live up to the hype? Simon Allen finds out…

Like many, I have been keeping a careful eye on the developments Avid has been making with Pro Tools. The company has seen some tough times recently and end users have been sceptical about the constant flow of updates. Plug-in and third-party software manufacturers have had to play catch up, providing new 64-bit AAX versions of its products. However, there is apparently light at the end of the tunnel, and in my opinion Pro Tools has something to shout about again.

Pro Tools has now reached version 12.5, which has accumulated several small but significant updates since my last review of the software.
