Made to go the extra mile.
With unmatched dynamic range and the ability for 64-bit double precision processing, AAX plugins are superbly designed for the highest sound quality and capability. A single plugin can access both low- and high-latency signal networks simultaneously, enabling CPU-intensive effects like reverbs to run with incredible efficiency. And because each AAX DSP plugin has a native counterpart, you can work in native mode and then tap into HDX DSP power just by clicking a button. This means you can mix and record with near-zero latency using the same plugins in Pro Tools—without any distracting third-party apps.
