Pro Tools is, without a doubt, the leading professional standard platform in the music and audio post-production industry, given its extensive features and capabilities for recording, editing, programming, and mixing. AVID, the company that develops it (formerly Digidesign), has many years of experience in the sector. In addition, it creates some of the best audio software and hardware on the market, making its quality and solid reliability world-renowned. It was inevitable that Pro Tools, its powerful music production and audiovisual post-production software, would become one of the industry benchmarks. At a professional level, in the music industry, there is a high demand for proficiency and control of Pro Tools in any professional recording studio. It is therefore very important to acquire agility and skill in its use. Microfusa, as the official and pioneering Pro Tools school in Spain, offers the opportunity to study official certifications for Pro Tools up to level 200 (Pro Tools Operator Certificate) through the various levels starting with 101, 110, 201, and finally 210M (Music Operator) or 210P (Post-Production Operator).

Why Pro Tools?

In 1989, Digidesign launched the Sound Tools platform for Apple Macintosh. It was a stereo recording and editing system advertised as the first tapeless (without tape) recording studio. It only recorded two tracks with CD quality running on a Macintosh computer.DE In 1991, the first version of Pro Tools appeared, with ProDECK and ProEDIT software, midi, 4 voices, and console automation. The following year, version 1.1 appeared, adding support for up to 4 cards/interfaces for 4 to 16 voices. Although it is not until 1994, with the release of Pro Tools III, when Digidesign becomes the absolute leader by producing the most powerful hard disk sound recording system created to date. Pro Tools III also incorporated the Disk I/O card which, inserted into the computer (always a Macintosh), connected to the audio interface. For years, the only handicap of this platform was its need to use specific hardware without supporting other brands. In 2005, and after Avid's acquisition of M-Audio, a first step was taken in this regard with version 7, which opened the code to be used with M-Audio audio interfaces. With version 9 released in 2010, much more progress was made: it supported hardware from any brand as long as it handled the proper drivers. In 2010, Pro Tools 10 was launched with AAX architecture (Native and DSP), 32-bit signal processing, and 16,000 samples of latency compensation. In its non-HD version, it has a maximum of 96/48/24 tracks, while its HD version has 256/128/64 tracks, reaching up to 768/384/192 with three cards. Finally, Pro Tools 2018 arrived to be one of the best music production tools. Thanks to its new features, its new mixing system, keyboard shortcuts, and the ability to create track presets with custom configurations. Definitely, it is one of the most used and respected software by the community.
