We don’t need to tell you how powerful the Digidesign Pro Tools|HD system is or just how many of today’s top albums have been produced using it. Yet as great as it was, the release of the Pro Tools HD Version 7 software gave it an extra shot of mojo, resulting in an unmatched workflow in the creation of professional music or in a post production environment. Basically, every part of the system was streamlined, allowing for an unparalled ease of use in recording tracks, working with MIDI files and importing loops for rapid song construction. And now, hot on the heels of that release, we have a major upgrade in Pro Tools HD 7.1cs2. Take a look at just some of the key features and fixes:
- New: Advanced import functions added
- New: Integrated DigiBase Pro file management utility added
- Fixed: Banking Control|24 could result in a crash or an “unexpected quit”
- Fixed: Previewing a crossfade in the Fade Dialog Preview resulted in clicks or no audio.
- Fixed: Inaccuracies when using Groove Quantize as an edit operation or as Input Quantize (notes were being randomly moved)
- Fixed: Freeze could occur when playback settings were changed or when opening a session to use the saved playback engine
- Fixed: When recording using pre-roll, incorrect audio could be played back (only with Expansion|HD).
- Fixed: In the event of a hardware problem (i.e. bad DSP), launching Pro Tools or Media Station could result in the report of low memory
