The Avid Technologies Pro Tools | HD Native Thunderbolt Interface with Pro Tools HD Software includes a Pro Tools | HD Native Thunderbolt interface and a full, perpetual license version of Pro Tools | HD, offered as a download.

Designed for on-the-go music creation, the Pro Tools | HD Native Thunderbolt interface brings high-speed Thunderbolt connectivity to your Pro Tools | HD system to nearly eliminate latency, and provide 64 channels of simultaneous I/O at 24-bit / 192 kHz. The card easily connects to your existing laptop or compact computer and significantly reduces that distracting delay you hear while recording, leading to a more comfortable experience when performing in the studio.

To get a full 64 channels of I/O, the Pro Tools | HD Native Thunderbolt interface allows you to connect up to four, 16-channel Pro Tools | HD audio interfaces. Two of the interfaces connect directly to DigiLink Mini ports 1 and 2, and the other two interfaces connect to the expansion ports on those Pro Tools | HD audio interfaces.

Pro Tools | HD is designed for audio and post pros who need maximum track counts, high-level performance, and surround sound. It provides powerful and efficient tools to create music or sound for film/TV, and connect with a premier network of artists, producers, and mixers around the world via Avid Cloud.

The software comes bundled with a 1-year Annual Upgrade and Support Plan, which provides access to the latest Pro Tools releases, including updates and upgrades, 25 bonus plug-ins, and priority support (renewable annually).
