It surely isn't hard to see why some people find it increasingly hard to stick with Pro Tools? You can pipe 128 channels of Dante into Ultimate if you fancy spending $12000 on hardware and software. Or, you can do it for $1200 with a Rednet PCIe card and a reaper license. Avid's inability to rationalise modern native processing power, DSP voice limitations, and the abundance of options for modern audio connectivity in 2020 is probably why so many people have headed for the door. The HD|Native card is really only a solution to one problem in that sense, whilst creating so many more in the process.
