More Audio Tracks
Vocals, background vocals, guitars, bass, discretely tracked drums, synths -- recording a band or ensemble can lead to a lot of audio tracks. Music Production Toolkit 2 keeps the music flowing, expanding the capabilities of your Pro Tools LE or Pro Tools M-Powered system to handle up to 64* mono or stereo audio tracks at 48 kHz resolution, or up to 48 mono or stereo tracks at 96 kHz with a 96 kHz-capable Pro Tools system. Combine this with the multitude of virtual instrument and MIDI tracks, and you have one powerful music production studio that won't break your budget.

Groundbreaking Virtual Instruments and Plug-ins
Music Production Toolkit 2 includes five valuable plug-ins (worth over $1,600) that are ideal for creating music, establishing and enhancing sounds, and producing professional-quality mixes.

Eleven LE
Get the unmistakable tone of the world's greatest collection of vintage and modern guitar amps in your tracks. Eleven(TM) LE sets a new standard for guitar recording, delivering hyper-realistic, mic'd tube amp tones -- including those sonic nuances and unique behaviors that define each legendary amp -- consistently and with ease.

Hybrid 1.5
Whether you're a musician, DJ, music producer, or sound buff who likes to get your hands a little dirty, Hybrid(TM) 1.5 is a high-definition synthesizer that combines the warmth of classic analog waveforms with digital wavetables, allowing you to re-create the sounds of your favorite classic synths or create something completely unique.

Smack! LE
Smooth out sounds and give instruments the presence they deserve in your mix. Designed specifically for music production, Smack!(TM) LE is a professional, easy-to-use compressor/limiter plug-in that delivers great-sounding compression to enhance the fullness and intelligibility of tracks, and bring more punch and clarity to your mixes.

Structure LE
Forget about shelling out cash to amass an army of instruments; the Structure(R) LE advanced sample player can put just about any instrument or sound at your fingertips, allowing you to create a wide range of instrumentation, and tweak them to create your own unique sounds. Get started with the over 140 included instruments or use your own sound libraries.

TL Space -- Native Edition
TL Space(TM) is a powerful convolution reverb that lets you re-create natural-sounding acoustic environments for vocal and instrument tracks. From a simple room to a cavernous concert hall, TL Space includes a comprehensive library of high-quality, sampled reverb spaces and effects impulses, and offers the ability to add more impulses easily.

Multitrack Beat Detective
Previously only available with Pro Tools HD(R) software, this multitrack version of Beat Detective(TM) -- the powerful rhythm analysis and correction tool -- works across multiple audio and MIDI tracks simultaneously, enabling you to fix timing inconsistencies of even an entire multitrack drum performance in one fell swoop.

Pro Tools MP3 Option
The Pro Tools MP3 Option allows you to export your mixes as MP3 files (using the original Fraunhofer MP3 Encoding algorithm), making it easy to listen to them on a portable MP3 player, or quickly share them without having to use a separate application.
