Disk Caching lets you load your entire sessions into RAM, giving you instant response and incredible real-time editing capabilities.

There's a ton to know about Avid Pro Tools HD 11, so be sure to call your sales engineer with any questions you may have.

Each Avid HDX card is like having about the equivalent of an HD3 or HD4 system on a single card. To put it mildly, that's a ton of DSP power for your DAW! What's more, there's a separate FPGA processor for your mix bus, so all of your HDX card's DSP power is dedicated to running plug-ins. Each HDX card gives you 256 voices, a full four times the routing capacity of an Accel card. That means you can freely use Avid's new AAX plug-ins, without worrying about running out of voices.

Here's where it gets even cooler. HDX cards and AAX plug-ins are ready for a 64-bit world. Although Pro Tools HD is still in transition from 32-bit to 64-bit, you still get the advantages of onboard 64-bit architecture. For one thing, the HDX summing bus is true 64-bit, giving you amazing headroom to mix with. Speaking of headroom, Pro Tools | HDX also gives you 32-bit floating-point processing between plug-ins, increasing your mix bus's dynamic range to over 1000dB. That makes clipping and dither buildup things of the past.

Avid's C | 24 gives you 24 bankable channel strips, each with a touch-sensitive, motorized fader, motion-sensitive encoder and LED ring, and dedicated Mute, Solo, Select, Input, Record, EQ, Dynamics, Insert, Send, and Automation illuminated switches. High-quality analog components provide you with great sound on the front end, as well as the outputs you need to handle tasks such as monitoring. Easy-to-read, dual-row LED scribble strip displays also let you easily keep tabs on each channel. The C | 24 comes equipped with a 5.1 surround analog monitor section for post-production work, and a built-in talkback mic, plus inputs for remote talkback and listen-back, which simplify your control room. It's the perfect addition to a basic professional-level Pro Tools | HDX system!

The HD I/O from Avid offers unrivaled fidelity and lower latency than any HD series interface to date. To make tracking with the HD I/O easier than ever, Avid gave it their fantastic soft-knee analog limiter. This dynamics processor, named Curv, catches fast transients, letting you track hotter without clipping. What's more, the Curv won't unnecessarily color your sound, so you get top-quality completely headache free. This version of the HD I/O is equipped with 16 channels of analog input, eight channels of analog output, and eight channels of digital I/O.
