Which version of Pro Tools is right for you?

Pro Tools has seen many changes over its over-30-yearear history. There are currently four versions of Pro Tools available, and you may not know which one is right for you and your workflow. Avid (the maker of Pro Tools) does provide detailed charts that can help you figure out which route to take, but these can be difficult to parse, especially if you haven’t used Pro Tools before, or even if you have stuck with an older version for a while. Since moving to a subscription model, it is also difficult to find older versions of Pro Tools and their licenses available, so we’re going to break down the four versions of Pro Tools available at the time of writing and determine which one would work best for you. When looking at the costs listed here, keep in mind that Avid also offers discounts for yearly subscriptions, which can be sizable, depending on the version.
