Pro Tools is a Digital Audio Workstation which integrates hardware and software, widely used by professionals in Music Production , Post Production , TV and Film Scoring .

As one of the first programs to provide CD-quality (16 bit and 44.1 kHz) multitrack Digital Audio Editing on a personal computer, Pro Tools grew quickly in the Sound Recording field, becoming popular because of its streamlined interface for Non-linear , Non-destructive editing. This appealed to analog producers switching to computer-based Digital Audio production. Digidesign received a technical Academy Award of Merit for the development of Pro Tools in 2004.

Pro Tools was criticized for its lack of support for musical notation. However in 2006 Avid acquired Sibelius music notation software company. Pro Tools 7.3 supports exporting to Sibelius.

Pro Tools is a product of the company Digidesign , which in turn has been a division of the mother company Avid Technology since 1995.
M-Audio (formerly Midiman) was acquired by Avid Technology in 2004-2005.
