As a sneak preview, Avid audio application specialist Daniel Lovell takes you on a journey towards getting the features in this new version out into the world. If you are looking forward to the release of Pro Tools 12.6, you’ll definitely want to read Lovell's blog post on how the product team received major feature requests, took up the challenge and made it all happen.
Since then, Avid has released Pro tools 12.6!!!. For those of you using Pro Tools as well as Media Composer…… We’re pleased to announce the release of Pro Tools v12.6, the third major update for Pro Tools in less than nine months. This release facilitates faster and more efficient audio editorial workflows for post and music production, with exclusive capabilities for Pro Tools | HD and HDX customers.
New in Pro Tools v12.6:
- Apply real-time effects to clips (Pro Tools | HD only)
Tweak the sound of a clip without affecting the entire track. With Clip Effects, you can apply real-time EQ and dynamics to a single clip or clip group on your timeline, enabling you to have different settings across multiple clips on a track. This gives you more precision consistency when working with multiple clips of related audio, such as dialog or voiceovers. (Playback supported by Pro Tools)
- Re-record in the box (Pro Tools | HDX only)
Achieve click-free pristine punch-ins with single-system post re-recorder workflows "in the box" right inside of Pro Tools | HD. Using Pro Tools | HDX and any punch mode, the system calibrates and time aligns your stems so there's no latency or audio artifacts when punching in and out of tracks or switching inputs. Both in the actual recording and what you hear live in real time.
- Edit audio layers, playlists and fades more easily
With new enhancements to the way Pro Tools handles overlapping clips, editing audio is easier than ever. Automatically create new playlists for overlapping clips. Then switch between multiple playlists with new key commands. And quickly adjust a fade shapes directly in the Edit window using the Smart Tool.
