M-Audio, a leading provider of creative tools for computer-centric musicians, is proud to announce that Digidesign Pro Tools M-Powered software, an exciting new version of the award-winning Digidesign Pro Tools software designed to work with select M-Audio hardware interfaces, has extended compatibility to six additional M-Audio peripherals. Now even more M-Audio hardware enthusiasts have access to the recording industry’s most popular audio/MIDI production software for recording, editing, and mixing music.

Pro Tools M-Powered software now supports M-Audio’s FireWire Solo, FireWire Audiophile, Delta 1010, Delta 1010LT, Delta 44, and Delta 66 in addition to the previously supported FireWire 1814, FireWire 410, Ozonic, Audiophile 2496, and Audiophile 192. The addition of these new products means that M-Audio’s complete FireWire audio interface and Delta PCI card lines are now compatible with Pro Tools M-Powered.

Pro Tools M-Powered software delivers up to 32 simultaneous tracks of 16- or 24-bit digital audio with sample rates up to 96kHz, plus a fully integrated MIDI sequencer for recording and editing up to 256 MIDI tracks. Loaded with more than 30 DigiRack and Bomb Factory plug-ins, Pro Tools M-Powered software also provides access to a wide range of additional third-party plug-ins and options from Digidesign Development Partners™—from virtual instruments to affordable effects processors that emulate expensive vintage analog and digital gear. Sessions created with Pro Tools M-Powered software can be opened with any Windows XP– or Mac OS X–based Digidesign Pro Tools system, facilitating seamless compatibility with other musicians and Pro Tools–equipped recording studios.

M-Audio’s Delta series is the best-selling professional audio card line in the world. Delta cards span a wide range of studio configurations, feature sets, operating systems, and price points—and are unparalleled in manufacturing and audio quality at every price point. M-Audio’s FireWire audio interface series extends the same legendary driver support, sonic excellence, quality and affordability to the mobile music community and beyond.

“M-Audio is excited to extend the power and flexibility of Pro Tools M-Powered to a greater percentage of our existing user base,” says Adam Castillo, M-Audio marketing director. “We also look forward to welcoming new customers into the M-Audio and Digidesign family by offering even more creative options for musicians of all kinds—at an unbelievably affordable price.”
