Splice has now integrated with Pro Tools as part of a “game-changing” update

Splice is now available directly within Pro Tools as part of a “pivotal” new upgrade, meaning users now have access to its loops, FX, and one-shots without leaving the DAW.

The integration arrives as Avid launches the Pro Tools 2025.6 update. It also delivers MIDI improvements, an AI-driven Speech-to-Text tool, an expanded ARA ecosystem, more tightly integrated ADR and reconform workflows, plus a new in-app dashboard.

To use Splice within Pro Tools, music makers can simply drag audio clips from the Pro Tools timeline directly into Splice’s AI-powered “Search with Sound” panel to match samples by rhythm, key and tempo. You can also preview the samples and then drag them back into your session. There are over 2,500 free samples to experiment with, but you can unlock the full library via a monthly paid subscription if you wish.

Kenna Hilburn, SVP, Product at Avid, comments, “Whether producers and artists are sketching out ideas, building out tracks, or applying final touches, Pro Tools’ Splice integration provides a more powerful environment for creating music – giving users the ability to quickly find the perfect sound while staying in their creative flow.”

Kenny Ochoa, SVP of Content at Splice, also adds: “Putting Splice directly into the creative workflow is core to our mission. This integration makes it easier than ever for Pro Tools users to access our AI-powered discovery and world-class sound library – right where they’re making music.”

As for other enhancements arriving via the update, smoother MIDI creation now means that key editing tools are integrated directly into the MIDI Editor so you don’t have to switch windows. The new Speech-to-Text AI engine also helps to accelerate dialogue and music editing, and you can now search any audio file via a dedicated transcript window for speech/lyric information.

Avid’s expansion of the Pro Tools’ ARA ecosystem also brings “tighter, faster and more flexible” integration with key partners. Users can now experiment with Waves’ Sync Vx to align multiple vocal tracks, and Dreamtonics Synthesizer V – a tool for generating and sculpting vocal tracks by sketching out melodies and writing lyrics, offering a collection of recorded vocals which are licensed from real singers.
