Pro Tools

Pro Tools is the industry standard in Digital Audio Workstations (DAW). The element that separates Pro Tools from processor-based DAWs, such as Cubase, Sonar, Nuendo, and Logic are the core processing cards that provide Pro Tools with the power to eliminate the latency found in processor-based platforms. Pro Tools also can employ the extensive plugin power in high track counts demanded by contemporary recording and movie industry artists. The advantage of recording with Pro Tools is the flexibility and standardization of this recording platform. A Pro Tools file recorded at RedRoom Recorders can easily be taken to and used by any professional level recording studio in the world.

RedRoom Recorders uses two Pro Tools systems:

  • Pro Tools High Definition 3 (HD3) system
  • Pro Tools High Definition 2 (HD2) system

A/D Converters

The A/D converter is responsible for taking source audio (analog) and converting it into the digital format. The Digidesign 192 is simply one of the best sounding A/D converters on the market. While lesser A/D converters purport to possess the same sample rates, Digidesign 192 is on a level all its own.
