HD I/O in a Native System!

Avid Pro Tools|HD Native takes full advantage of today's high-power computers by offering you some of the top features of Pro Tools|HD at an incredible low price. Pro Tools|HD Native gives you blazing fast I/O, near-zero latency, automatic delay compensation, and full integration with Avid's HD line of interfaces, leaving your CPU to handle plug-ins and mixing. If you're budget minded but still demand results from your DAW, have one of these high-power computers, and prefer to track with outboard signal processors (rather than plug-ins), then Pro Tools|HD Native is perfect for you.

As a basic system, Pro Tools|HD Native consists of an Avid Pro Tools|HD Native Core PCIe card, Pro Tools|HD software, and an Avid HD interface. These interfaces include the HD I/O, HD Omni I/O, and HD MADI I/O, as well as the legacy 192 I/O, and 96 I/O. DigiLink Mini inputs on the Pro Tools|HD Native Core card provide I/O for up to two separate interface connections and up to 64 channels of ultra-low-latency I/O.

Other than TDM plug-in support (which requires DSP), Pro Tools|HD software runs the same with a Pro Tools|HD Native Core system as it does with a Pro Tools|HD Accel system. You get 192 channels of audio (64 at 192kHz), as well as 7.1 surround sound support, Copy to Send, complete multitrack Beat Detective, and automatic delay compensation, as well as other great functions previously unavailable for a native Pro Tools system. And if you're stepping up from a Pro Tools LE system, you'll get all of the plug-ins you already know and love.

  • PCIe interface card
  • Compatible with Avid Pro Tools|HD
  • Supports Core Audio and ASIO applications

Sweetwater came to the rescue

Music Background: Post Production Supervisor
Paul at Sweetwater came through when at the last minute the Producers on a feature in post requested that the Oscar winning sound designer come to our studio to edit. We have a meager sound departmen... read more [+]t as we are more on the visual side of editing. So at the last minute we needed to revamp our Protools to the latest system that the designer was accompanied to. Well Paul made sure that we were set up in time and everything worded out and as for the Avid card it worked worked right out of the box along with the I/O and Protools upgrade! close [-]

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
