The ultimate pro quality burning suite

Roxio Toast Titanium Pro offers some of the most professional and powerful burning capabilities of any similar application out there.

Roxio Toast 11 Titanium Pro features all the benefits of the non-pro version but also includes five powerful digital media apps including Adobe Photoshop Elements 9, FotoMagico 3 RE for HD, BIAS SoundSoap 2 SE a new Toast Plug-in for audio cleaning, and SmartSound Sonicfire Pro 5 for creating custom soundtracks. It also includes a Blu-ray Disc Plug-in for Blu-ray and DVD video authoring.

In terms of new features compared to version 10, the most significant addition to Roxio Toast Titanium 11 is higher quality export profiles for export to Vimeo, an updated Roku video export profile and audio CD projects now allows up to 199 tracks.

Roxio Toast Titanium can still automatically connect to your TiVo and copy shows and movies across to your Mac, ready to watch there, convert for a portable device or burn to disk. Your EyeTV shows can be streamed from the internet to your Mac or iPhone. Toast Titanium also adds some limited yet welcome editing features, in this case, trimming and cropping to clean up your videos.

As regards the extras in this Pro version of Roxio Toast Titanium, Photoshop Elements is the famous Adobe design suite which needs no introduction. Sonicfire Pro is a sound mixers dream allowing you to create professional soundtracks for your projects. SoundSoap allows you to easily and instantly remove unwanted noise from digital video or audio files while FotoMagico offers creation of spectacular HD slideshows.

The side panel of Roxio Toast Titanium contains all the simplest functions for choosing which type of disk you want to burn whether it's Data, Music, VCD, DivX, DVD and of course, HD to BluRay. Simply select the disk type, drag and drop the files you want on the disk and hit the red burning button! The fun really only starts there however because you can really got to work on your creations with Adobe Photoshop Elements, Sonicfire Pro, SoundSoap and FotoMagico.

Of course, some of these, especially Adobe Photoshop Elements and SonicFire, take some understanding and you'll need to devote a whole session of learning via the excellent tutorials to get to grips with them to get the most out of them.

One particularly useful feature in Roxio Toast Titanium is the Data Recover tool which can help recover data from a badly damaged disk although the results can be rather hit and miss apparently. Accompanying this are the also perennial cross compatibility issues of Roxio burners meaning that projects made in earlier versions, may not work properly when opened in Roxio Toast Titanium.

Roxio Toast Titanium Pro 11 is a fully comprehensive burning tool that includes everything a professional might need to produce stunning results even in HD and on BluRay.
