Re: ProTools price adjustments from July 1st.
I too have been exploring Studio 1. I like the mixer layout better than Logic's but the Pro Tools shortcuts included don't come close enough to my muscle memory to make a smooth transition. Frankly, without the single-key command focus shortcuts I'm used to in Pro Tools I won't be switching to anything else for the editing work that makes up a lot of my income.
Fortunately, I could use any version of PT from 10 onward for the kind of work. Meanwhile, Avid is seriously lagging behind in implementing features that would improve my music writing/mixing workflow. I might just park my PT license at 2019 and get to mixing in S1.
$200/yr to keep my license up-to-date would be totally fine with me if I felt I could expect major improvements to the software. ARA-like functionality for AAX, delay compensated side-chain, clip FX for Vanilla. . .
