“We want to make the experience of using Focusrite hardware and Pro Tools software together the best possible experience for all our customers,” says Dave Froker, CEO of Focusrite PLC. “Avid recognizes Focusrite as an ideal companion to Pro Tools and Focusrite recognize Pro Tools as the most mature professional recording platform for new Focusrite customers to adopt.”
