Today we’ll be answering the question “Why was pro tools first discontinued.”

If you’re a fan of the Pro Tools brand, then you’re probably would appreciate this post.

We have a lot of different changes that happen.

We’ve seen the death of brands and see them rise back to the top.

Why was pro tools first discontinued?

The specifics aren’t too clear other than it being “unavailable on a technical level”. It led to them having to default on their main feature being the Free Cloud account and develop 3 new programs in order to make up for this discrepancy.

What does the discontinuation mean?

The discontinuation means that they’re stopping future updates and more downloads of the Pro Tools First program.

If you already have the program then you can continue to use it but all of the existing presets and tools on the platform is all that you’ll get.

Because the Free Cloud account was a major feature for Pro Tools First it’s something that the company will stop developing, matter of fact they also will be clearing out their cloud in order to make way for future developments.

Will Pro Tools First be replaced?

User who prefer the Pro Tools platform can rest assured in knowing that the program was replaced with a few new versions called Pro Tools Intro, Pro Tools Artist, and Pro Tools Studio.

The main differences are that they’ll include hundreds of new audio tracks, mixing capabilities, and an increased track count.

The company has made improvements to their subscription option to allow previous owners with licenses to their other program to upgrade for a one time fee supplementing the earlier issue.

Final Thoughts

This is why pro tools was discontinued.

They had too many crashes to continue productions.

What that means is their existing customers get to still use the program.

With that said their quality product is still available for download for new users as well with Pro Tools and Pro Tools Ultimate.
