With all due respect to yourself Darryl, I will need to upgrade to Catalina one day you know? After all, I need to move with the times - or get left behind!

There is a method in my madness - and I will explain. This is ALL because: I want to carry on using my 003 Control Surface - which unfortunately is 32bit.

This is the reason WHY I wish to KEEP Mojave 10.14.5 and Pro Tools 2019.5 handy - because my 003 Control Surface has EXTERNAL RECORDING CAPABILITIES incorporated within the design - it is a Mixing Desk! (my Roland TR-8S Usb connection, DOES NOT possess this capability!)

Additionally, Catalina will be 64bit and my 003 (32 bit) will not run on this!

My 003 is a brilliant, brilliant machine (it is a timeless design). I absolutely love this Legacy machine - and it is/was the ‘business’ hence, why I want to keep it in operation - by reverting back to protools 2019.5 and Mojave 10.14.5 - when I wish to use it! That is why I have bought the T2 to T3 connector.

When Avid gives the ‘all clear’ on Catalina - I will no doubt be using Pro Tools on this macOS. However, I will NOT be able to use the 003 Control Surface because it is 32 bit.

Which is OK, because… I can use the 003, by booting up in: Pro Tools 2019.5 and Mojave 10.14.5.

And that is the way I hope to get around this problem.

Btw, I also have an annual subscription with Avid. And I want to keep it that way. Otherwise, It seems pretty pointless paying a yearly subscription - if I am going to stay on Mojave.
