Avid Pro Tools Carbon Ultimate Bundle
Tax included.
Supercharged Hybrid Audio Production System
Fusing extreme onboard processing, uncompromising sonic performance, and industry-standard Pro Tools software, Avid Pro Tools | Carbon gives artists, bands, and producers and engineers a unified and premium hybrid production system for creating music with a fluid, professional workflow, supercharged plug-in power, and all the I/O needed to run an impressive session.
Seamless hardware and software integration
Pro Tools has remained the industry-standard recording and mixing software for decades. And it’s no wonder why: its console-style workflow and timeline-based editing window are intuitive and efficient. And numerous time-saving production and editing tools, such as Elastic Audio and Beat Detective, help you achieve professional results quickly. Pro Tools | Carbon’s hybrid engine, which allows you to use native CPU and HDX DSP processing simultaneously during recording and mixdown, provides the optimal Pro Tools experience. Moreover, its integrated features, such as zero-latency monitoring, are accessible right inside of Pro Tools — there’s no need for separate control software!
HDX DSP Acceleration
When composing and recording in the box, sometimes you can hit a wall when it comes to your computer’s resources. But Pro Tools | Carbon fortifies your systems’ capabilities with eight HDX DSP cores. You’ll be able to use more plug-ins than ever before, both in native and HDX DSP mode. Bundled with over 115 AAX DSP plug-ins from the AVID Complete collection, as well as virtual instruments from UVI and Native Instruments, Dave Hill’s HEAT harmonic enhancer, and numerous hardware emulations from McDSP and Plugin Alliance, Pro Tools | Carbon provides a comprehensive production system for unconstrained creativity!
State-of-the-art converters and cutting-edge preamps
Pro Tools | Carbon delivers exceptional sonic performance. Four state-of-the-art analog-to-digital converters per channel serve up pristine audio quality, with an impressive 126dB dynamic range that accurately captures quiet sources with minimal noise, and loud sources, without distortion. Newly designed, Pro Tools | Carbon’s eight preamps are some of the company’s finest yet — created for ultimate transparency and detail. And four of the eight preamps have a variable impedance control for optimum gain staging, regardless of the source. For engineers and producers utilizing outboard gear, Pro Tools | Carbon allows any of its eight preamps to be bypassed for the shortest possible signal chain.
Flexible I/O for any recording situation
No matter if you’re working in a small project studio or a large facility, Pro Tools | Carbon has the flexibility you need for any recording situation. For tracking solo artists, small ensembles, and overdubs, Pro Tools | Carbon’s eight stellar preamps are more than enough. But, if you need to expand to accommodate very large ensembles, multi-miked drum kits, or more, Pro Tools | Carbon supplies 16 channels of digital I/O over ADAT. With all of its I/O options, it’s ideal for hybrid studio configurations, and it’s ready to expand with you as your studio evolves.
