WHY PRO TOOLS?
AVID Pro Tools is by all accounts the industry standard software. More pros are using it and because we know that’s your goal, to be pro, we choosed to make it our DAW.
While we will never say one DAW is better than another DAW, for we have and still use others DAW’s in or creative process, and we know they all have strengths and weaknesses.
Pro Tools has gotten a bad rap over the years from people saying it’s hard to understand, but that is just not true.
It is used on pretty much every project recorded so we felt it would be good for you to know, to understand its software.
Since we are tackling songwriting which people struggle with we decided to tackle Pro Tools also which people struggle with. This will make you a strong/knowledgable/ and competitive player in the music market.
