WHAT'S NEW IN PRO TOOLS 2025.6

The Pro Tools Artist 2025.6 software update introduces new capabilities for both music and audio post customers including Splice integration that makes it easy to find the perfect sound from world’s largest royalty-free sample library. 2025.6 also offers ARA support for Dreamtonics Synthesizer V and Waves Sync Vx plugins, plus MIDI Editor and Input Monitoring enhancements, a new in-app Dashboard, and more.

Splice, the world’s largest sample library, is now integrated directly into Pro Tools—letting you discover, audition, and drop in high-quality sounds, without ever leaving the DAW. Whether you’re sketching out ideas, building out tracks, or applying final touches, Splice puts the world’s best catalog of royalty-free loops, one-shots, and FX right at your fingertips. Not only can you now access millions of Splice samples directly in Pro Tools, but you can also Search with Sound. Simply drag in any audio clip from the timeline and Splice AI will instantly find top compatible samples synced to your session’s beat, key, and tempo—no more app switching, no more guesswork. Pro Tools users can create a free Splice account to get over 2,500 free samples or subscribe for $12.99/month and get access to the full Splice library.

Dreamtonics Synthesizer V lets you generate and sculpt vocal tracks by sketching out melodies, writing lyrics, choosing from a collection of vocals recorded and licensed from real singers, and synthesize custom expressions utilizing AI technology. ARA support enables Synthesizer V to interact directly with the Pro Tools' timeline, eliminating the need for real-time playback when playing back vocal parts for a more fluid editing and playback process. Waves Sync Vx lets you unclutter all your vocal tracks in seconds, automatically locking the time and pitch of multiple vocal tracks to your lead performance to save hours of manual editing to sync backing vocals or align re-recorded dialogue. With ARA support, you can now use Sync Vx to manage your entire vocal arrangement in Pro Tools without having to roundtrip audio.

Pro Tools 2025.6 adds MIDI Operations and Note Labels to the MIDI Editor, making MIDI workflows easier and more intuitive. MIDI Operations have previously only been accessible via the Event Operations window, and integrating these tools into the MIDI Editor improves accessibility when you need them most and help new users discover them more easily. MIDI Note Labels helps you keep track of how sounds are laid out when programming drums or working with non-traditional instruments. You can now easily rename your piano roll in the MIDI Editor to quickly see what sound is assigned to each note.
