M-Audio Pro Tools M-Powered 7 M-Audio Compatible World-Class Production Software

This software is not a watered-down version of Pro Tools. It is Pro Tools. There are actually three flavors of Pro Tools, all of which basically share the same user interface and file format. The primary distinction has to do with hardware -- Pro Tools HD 7 runs on Elite Tools HD hardware; Pro Tools LE 7 works with Digidesign's Mbox, Mbox 2, Digi 002, and Digi 002 Rack; and Pro Tools M-Powered delivers even more options via compatibility with nearly 20 affordable M-Audio interfaces. There is no excuse for not having this industry-standard Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) in your creative toolbox.

Produce with the Industry Standard -- Anytime, Anywhere
The combination of M-Audio gear and Pro Tools M-Powered 7.1 lets you work anywhere, anytime with the industry standard in music production software. This tool seamlessly collaborates with any system running a current version of Pro Tools, including across platforms (Windows XP and Mac OS X). Take your projects to just about any recording studio to have it mixed by a professional, or take your pro studio projects home or on the road. With Pro Tools M-Powered 7.1, owners of most M-Audio interfaces instantly become members of the largest community of digital audio workstation users in the world.

Professional Recording, Editing and Mixing
With up to 32 simultaneous tracks of 16- or 24-bit digital audio, and support for up to 96kHz sample rates, Pro Tools M-Powered 7.1 is an ideal companion for M-Audio interfaces and audio interface keyboards. Once you've finished your recording, you can fine-tune your performances with Pro Tools' unmatched, nondestructive editing tools -- you can shape sounds, compose parts, add effects with the RTAS instrument and effect plug-ins, and create polished mixes with professional mixing features and full mixer automation. Quantizing MIDI data is one thing -- but did you know that Pro Tools M-Powered also enables you to quantize audio? With Beat Detective LE, you can automatically analyze and tighten your rhythm tracks. You can even create groove templates from other loops or songs and apply them to your own material. With this software, you've got the tools you need to create professional mixes.

Advanced MIDI Sequencing
Pro Tools M-Powered 7.1 features a fully integrated MIDI sequencer that allows you to record, edit, and mix up to 256 MIDI tracks alongside your audio tracks. New dedicated instrument tracks combine the audio and MIDI elements of a given virtual instrument into a single channel strip to streamline your workspace. Launch your favorite instrument plug-in to get just the sound you desire, or you can engage loop recordings to quickly develop a multi-layered drum pattern -- no matter what you do you'll be impressed with the software's functionality. Turn on real-time MIDI processing to quantize your performance as it goes down, and use new advanced editing features to easily tweak everything to perfection.

Plug-ins, Plug-ins, Plug-ins
Not only will you have access to award-winning software when you get the Pro Tools M-Powered 7.1, but you'll also instantly be able to take advantage of a variety of RTAS and AudioSuite plug-ins designed by the recording industry's largest professional third-party developer community. For example, you can track with powerful host-based vintage instruments like GForce's Oddity and Minimonsta:Melohman, or add spice with Wizoo's Latigo and Darbuka virtual percussionists. You can even polish your mixes with affordable effects and mastering plug-ins, such as iZotope Ozone and Spectron, that surpass even the most expensive hardware. Pro Tools M-Powered 7.1 also includes more than 43 DigiRack and Bomb Factory plug-ins right out of the box, including EQ, dynamics, delay, reverb, and much more. You also get Digidesign's exciting virtual synth powerhouse and Xpand! with over 1,000 factory patches (up to four parts, four built-in arpeggiators, and two effects processor). The bottom line is that this software is expandable, powerful, and inspiring, and it will help you make your music sound just like you expect it to.
