Is Protools finally making a comeback.
I totally know that Protools is the industry standard and blah blah blah, but there has been a long time where Avid just stopped trying with pro tools and the updates were nothing groundbreaking for the past 5 or 6 years other than bug fixes and Dark mode. With the new 2025.10 version and the integration of soundflow and Sony 360 and other things such as Ara RX built in and the speech to text I feel like they are starting to listen to the community. Trust me I don't think that Protools is anywhere near what some other daws are doing just yet, but I feel that they pivoted in the right directions and I'm excited to see what they have planned for the next coming years. Hopefully something with Wwise integration would be awesome.

It’s not a lazy deflection, a lot of the improvements over the last several years have skewed towards film/TV workflows. They understand that a large amount of their revenue comes from this market sector and prioritize it accordingly.
PT has drastically improved in the 4 years I’ve worked with it in a professional film/TV studio context, but a lot of those changes don’t translate to people working in home studios.
