Why Trade With VK

The largest authorized Avid dealer in pro audio.

VK has placed Pro Tools systems in more commercial rooms than nearly any dealer in North America. We know the upgrade path because we have walked it with hundreds of studios.

Trade-in credit applies to any new Avid hardware — including custom S6 builds, MTRX integrations, and HDX system migrations.

"VK took our 10-year-old HDX rig in trade and built us a turnkey HDX 3 / MTRX II room. The trade credit covered nearly half the upgrade."

FAQ

Common questions.

How is trade value calculated?
Avid specialists base trade value on current market value, condition, generation, and whether the gear is being applied to a new Avid purchase. Trade-toward-new typically yields 15 — 25% above outright sale value.
Do I have to upgrade to new Avid hardware?
No — but trade-in credit only applies to Avid product purchases. If you want to convert to cash, the Sell or Trade desk is your route.
Do you handle install and migration?
Yes. Our integration team handles HDX migration, MTRX configuration, and full system commissioning. Available remote or on-site.
What about Pro Tools software licenses?
Pro Tools subscriptions transfer with the hardware in most cases. We coordinate license transfer and any required Avid account changes during the trade process.
