From Our Research Team:

Accel Into More Tracks & Power Today!

Digidesign is now offering two versions of its award-winning, professional Pro Tools|HD digital audio production systems. By continuing to provide the existing PCI version and releasing a PCI Express (PCIe) version, Digidesign is ensuring continued compatibility of its Pro Tools|HD systems with a wide range of PCI, PCI-X, and PCIe-equipped computers. Existing Pro Tools|HD core systems are designed to work in PCI and PCI-X slots only and are not compatible with PCIe technology.

Digidesign HD|2 Accel:
Pro Tools|HD 2 Accel includes the HD Core card and an HD Accel card, offering more than four times the mixing and processing power of HD 1 systems, support for 64 channels of I/O*, plus guaranteed support for up to 192 simultaneous audio tracks with no stress on the computer. Expanding the system's dedicated processing power and I/O capacity is as easy as adding additional HD Accel cards.

Sweetwater Advice

Kevin Scott
The industry standard in power, stability, sound quality and ease of use. From my experience with HD Accel both at Sweetwater and in my home studio I can tell you that its reputation is well deserved and unparalleled. If you need a no compromise, professional recording, editing, mixing or post production rig then there is no other choice beyond HD Accel.

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
