Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. But there are other big changes, so let's break it all down: The free (and too-restrictive) Pro Tools First has been discontinued. There are three main versions of Pro Tools. Pro Tools remains our Editors' Choice pick for PC-based recording software while it's equally awesome on the Mac side, Apple Logic Pro still edges it out there thanks to its robust feature set and unbeatable value. But coupled with this is the reintroduction of a lower-priced version, meaning that a new generation of up-and-coming engineers can afford to get on board once more. Many users have been critical of Avid's move to a subscription-based support model now the company has doubled down on this and has gone subscription-only. It's still the best audio editing app for larger studios with lots of outboard hardware and the need for extensive support networks, and its workflow remains second to none.
