Avid has launched Cloud Collaboration for Pro Tools enabling artists and engineers to work together at distance.
Avid Cloud Collaboration makes it easy for artists and audio professionals to compose, record, edit, and mix projects from any location worldwide, a key tenet of Avid Everywhere. In conjunction with the Artist Community, an online community designed to foster creative connections and professional opportunities, Pro Tools with Avid Cloud Collaboration connects artists and media professionals to a community of collaborative music creation and audio production.
The latest version, Pro Tools 12.5, represents the fifth software release in less than a year.
“Pro Tools 12.5 confirms Avid’s commitment to delivering powerful workflows that connect artists, media professionals, and their work in a much more collaborative, efficient way so they can focus on creating their best work,” said Dana Ruzicka, vice president and chief product officer at Avid. “Avid Cloud Collaboration for Pro Tools will radically change the way people make music, and open up unprecedented new creative possibilities. We’re excited to give customers the opportunity to experience this groundbreaking innovation.”
Avid Cloud Collaboration synchronises revisions and files in Pro Tools automatically. Customers can find and invite their connections to collaborate within the application or discover new collaborators through the online Avid Artist Community. They can then compose, record, edit, and mix tracks collaboratively with other Pro Tools users, just like they were working together in the same studio.
Furthermore, the Artist Community enables customers to share and promote their work with top artists, musicians, producers, engineers, and other media professionals.
With the new Cloud Collaboration features, customers will be able to: Create cloud-based projects and invite others to collaborate; Work on projects with others in real-time or offline; share audio and MIDI tracks, edits, mix changes, automation, and more; communicate with collaborators through text chat; minimise cloud storage by up to 70 per cent and accelerate transfers using lossless compression
