The price for a starting HD system is around $13,000 USD. It’s just not what type of plugins are available for what. Third, the differences between versions like HD and LE are track counts, voicing, DSP, and stuff like multi-track Beat Detective. You may also recognize TDM due to the fact that when you’re on an HD system and inserting a plug-in on a channel, aux, etc it will give you the option to insert either an RTAS or TDM plugin. TDM refers to Time Division Multiplexing: a feature in HD that allows processing to be done on the DSP chips you need to run HD.
Second, there’s no such thing as a “TDM” version of Pro Tools. Reason is a “virtual studio,” meaning it replaces (or can) all the outboard gear so many people cannot afford. MIDI is standard on at least PT and Cubase, not entirely sure on DP. Pro Tools, DP, and Cubase are all DAWs that do essentially the same thing. If anyone decides to purchase M-powered or LE(not HD ar TDM since they start close to $10,000 and only come with the HD/TDM hardware) get the Elastic Time plug in and the Celemony Melodyne Plug in. If recording/engineering is your passion, the price is worth the end result of your mix.
If you track a session on an HD or TDM system, you would still be able to open that session in M-powered or LE and edit, mix down, and bounce it to disk.Īs for iLok authorization…if it doesn’t work, try to find another iLok authorization. The only difference between the versions is that certain plug-ins are available for certain versions. M-Powered, LE, HD and TDM are all the same Pro Tools! There is no light edition, or crap edition. To clarify some things on the different versions… Digital Performer(DP), Reason, and cubase are sequencers and are probably what you’re looking for. Pro Tools comes with MIDI built into the software, but its not great. This is a software based DAW, not a sequencer. I saw that some people were asking if this makes beats.
