I believe if Avid would do something, like reduce cost of software upgrades or extra purchases of Pro Tools software if the owner has multiple Pro Tools system, this would save cost of studios, plus make Avid software more attractive. For instance, If I had a studio with four Pro Tools systems, I can buy one for the regular price of $500, but each additional license would be about $250, or something to that extent. ...more »

This is one that is a feature I think many people that work in Windows would love to have when working with two or more video monitors. When I hope, I use Pro Tools on a Windows rig, and I have two different monitors. I would love if Avid took the time a "unlock" the edit and mix windows from the master windows, like in the Mac version. That way, I don't waste any screen real estate, and perfect full screen on both ...more »

I would like to see advances on RTAS. Starting with making it 64-bits to be compatible with newer systems (Along with 64-bit Pro Tools). Less buffers needed to be used for plugins. More stable to prevent crashes and performance drops. It should also be made to where It can use resources from the CPU or a PCIe Card ( http://protools.ideascale.com/a/dtd/2nd-Generation-HD-Accel-Cards--FPGA-DSP-Hybrid-/79912-3779 ). It should ...more »

Even with Computer CPUs becoming more powerful by the day, I think that specialty cards like the HD Accel Cards still have an advantage when connected to Pro Tools. Latency will be lower, the computer will not have to work as hard, and you will have more power overall. By adding a accelerated card will "supercharge" your machine, reducing processes needed for the CPU, letting the cards do all mixing chores. The features ...more »

I would like to see a new compact mixing control surface that will replace the Command 8 and the MC Control. Put the best of the Artist series controllers and the best of the Avid control surface together. 1. First would have to be full EuCon support. You should be able to expand to 32 faders (four units) with a transport unit like the MC Transport (or even better, include the function in a main surface, then have expandable ...more »

One feature that I can see being added to the Pro Tools universe is the ability to transfer session to hard drive. This will serve two purposes. One would be to back up the session. Another would be to transfer to an external hard drive, to take on the road on a mobile situation. That can go hand and hand also with "Synchronize Session". That would be able to have operators sync changes done to the session. This would ...more »

I think that Digi should update the color scheme in the HD interfaces to match the ICON ES systems. The color scheme that is use now is based off of the old ICONs. This is just a quick concept of the color scheme.

I know this is really for PACE, but I figured since Pro Tools uses this I would still suggest it. I believe the iLOK needs an updated look. Redesigning the iLok won't prove any performance gain or software features, but making the appearance of the iLOK updated with new gear. This will not be replaced with the original iLOK, but sold alongside with it as an option. Besides the appearance of the unit, a good feature ...more »

I think this will be less taxing to the CPU if the majority of the graphics runs off the actual GPU. Example. A lot of the plug-ins have meters, or some graphics that moves around. The bigger the session get the more taxing it is on the CPU. This will also be helpful if you have a quicktime or wmv movie in the session. GPUs are now powerful enough to work as a second or third processor. Running video and graphics off ...more »
