MUSIC CREATION When inspiration strikes, nothing empowers your creativity like Pro Tools. That’s why top artists, musicians, and audio professionals choose it for everything they do. AUDIO POST PRODUCTION Power your sound with the tools that power the industry. Pro Tools redefines what’s sonically possible in film and television. For all Pro Tools purchases, we will supply you with a download code within 1-2 business days of your order. If you choose 'institution' or 'student/teacher' you will need to upload proof of eligibility before you are able to activate the software. This can be a student/staff card, purchase order, or any official correspondence from your institution. If you have any doubt about your eligibility, please contact us before placing an order as this verification is done post-purchase. NEW LICENCES Perpetual licenses do not expire, although you are only entitled to free updates for the first year, after which you will remain on that same version unless you pay to upgrade. Subscriptions are for 1-year and need to be renewed annually if you wish to continue using Pro Tools. Basically, subscriptions are a great idea if you're not sure how long you will use the software for, or if you value always being on the very latest version. If you know you are going to be using Pro Tools for a long time, a perpetual licence gives you guaranteed access without having to renew annually. PERPETUAL UPGRADES All upgrade options give you access to 1-year of updates and support. This means you will have access to the latest version of Pro Tools, as well as any new versions that are released in the next 12 months. Only choose 'Renewal' if you have a current 'Update & Support Plan'. If this has elapsed, you will need pay the higher price (non-education only) or consider switching to a subscription. SUBSCRIPTON RENEWALS Renewals are the same price as a new subscription, but we supply a different type of activation code so that the system knows to extend your existing licence.
