It definitely will outlive HDX.

Yep, an Apollo is a fantastic tool, top notch in all ways. Honestly I could do just fine with one, but.....
1. I don’t like fussing with a 3rd party software program between the Apollo interface and PT.
2. PT hardware and controllers integrate so well with PT.
3. I need HD for the Icon....and HD is pretty much a waste with an Apollo (there isn’t much benefit)
4. I was pissed they didn’t bring Console 2 to the Silver FW devices sooner...(I honestly thought I had a dead duck that would not be supported in the future, I’m talking like 2 years they said they were going to make it happen and it didn’t)
4. I got a super deal on a HD Native setup ( in 2015)
Buuuut those 1176’s and LA2A’s sound ssooooo good.
The SSL Channel Strip is amazing (and I don’t even have unison)
And it’s the only option to track with Auto Tune currently.
