Pro Tools Users Group

2/11 - Los Angeles Pro Tools Post Event featuring Skip Lievsay

We're really excited to announce a special Post Production oriented Pro Tools Users Group meeting at RSPE Audio Solutions on February 11th 2010.

Skip Lievsay, award winning/nominated sound editor/mixer for films including “No Country for Old Men”, “Men In Black”, and “I Am Legend” will present a discussion comparing film sound from vastly different film genres nominated for the same film sound category. A Q&A session will follow immediately afterwards.

The event will also feature a demonstration of a brand new audio restoration plug in, a short post-workflow presentation and explanation of the current Pro Tools and Video solutions from Avid, snacks and drinks, and the internationally celebrated Pro Tools Users prize draw.

New 2009 Mac Pro now certified compatible with Pro Tools HD

Digi announced this afternoon that they have completed testing the new 2009 (Nehalem) Apple Mac Pro, and that it is compatible with the current version of Pro Tools HD 8. It appears that there is no need to even use any software patch or "CS" release version of the software, which means that a new HD system and Mac Pro should work great together out of the box, without any tedious mucking around with downloading updates.

We have completed the first phase of our testing and are pleased to announce that Pro Tools HD is compatible with the new Apple Mac Pro (Nehalem processor). - Source Digidesign.com
