UNRIVALED DSP POWER, BACKED BY AN INDUSTRY

Pro Tools | HDX is the industry’s most powerful DSP platform, providing 18 TI FPGA chips per card and 6.3 GHz aggregate processing, so you can handle the largest, most complex sessions with confidence. Record and mix thousands of tracks and plugins in real-time. And monitor your system performance, so you always know if you have the headroom to add more AAX DSP plugins to your mix. For everything from Grammy® Award-winning songs, to Oscar®-winning film sound, the industry’s leading music studios and audio post facilities rely on HDX for its unmatched power and proven reliability, enabling the highest quality mixes consistently.

THE PROFESSIONAL DSP TRACKING AND MIXING EXPERIENCE

Experience the most intuitive, creative, and flexible DSP plugin workflow in the industry. Set effects chains for tracking and mixing entirely in Pro Tools | Ultimate. Toggle between DSP and native processing to get the best of both worlds—without requiring a secondary application. You can even use the same AAX DSP plugins in native processing mode—without your HDX hardware connected—freeing you to create on the road or in another studio. Plus, working with your favorite outboard gear is as easy as inserting plugins, with the system automatically handling the input delay compensation, so you can spend more time creating than calculating offsets.

SCALE YOUR SYSTEM FOR ANY PROJECT

Whether tracking a 5-piece band, full orchestra or re-recording a theatrical Dolby Atmos® mix, you can scale the system’s DSP and physical I/O to any project requirement. Connect multiple Pro Tools hardware I/O interfaces to a single 64-channel HDX card. Install up to three HDX cards in a single system for more demanding projects, supporting up to 768 voices and 192 I/O channels while delivering smooth, uninterrupted performance. For large multi-workstation productions, you can sync and control up to 12 Pro Tools | Ultimate systems from a single transport using Satellite Link and map tracks from each to your Avid® control surface faders.

Note: Pro Tools Ultimate and HDX Card sold separately.
