DIGIDESIGN OFFERING MARCH SPECIALS

DALY CITY, CA - Digidesign has introduced a new "buy-and-get" sales promotion that provides customers with an opportunity to get free software and hardware with the purchases of Pro Tools|HD and Digidesign control surfaces. The promotion is running throughout the month of March and includes three different packages.

Package 1 provides users with free plug-ins and a DigiDrive FireWire 80 when they purchase Pro Tools|HD3 and a 192 I/O. The Pro Tools|HD3 pack 3.0 includes Amp Farm by Line 6, PitchDoctor by Wave Mechanics, d2 and d3 by Focusrite, and D-Fi, Bruno/Reso, Reverb One and Maxim by Digidesign. The DigiDrive is optimized for Pro Tools and delivers the speed, capacity and reliability necessary to handle demanding projects. The plug ins, along with the DigiDrive FireWire 80, represent a combined savings of $4,445.

In Package 2, customers are rewarded when they buy Digidesign's Control|24 24-fader control surface along with 16 Focusrite mic pres. They'll also receive a free 192 A-D card, marking a savings of $1,295! This allows users to easily hook up all 16 of their mic pres to their 192 I/O interface to stream directly into Pro Tools|HD without the need for additional external preamplification or A-D cards.

And with Package 3, users who buy a ProControl and a Fader Pack receive a free PRE which provides eight channels of transparent mic preamplification, which they can control with their ProControl. The package represents a savings of $2,495, and lets mic pres stay in the room with the talent, while the preamps are controlled from the control room where they belong.
