If avid would deliver an answer something like this:
"look, the technology inside the control24 is too old to function with PT11. The microchip architecture controling the unit and communicating with PT is different and so on bla bla bla bla".

But since it only seems to be a marketing decision to let it go they are really fooling themselves.

Please, write these two drivers and we can tell others that avid is actually listening to its customers needs on all levels, instead on not giving a s***.

Yes, that was the main reason I made the decision to purchase the Aurora at this time. But also the benefits of recording at a higher sampling rate, the Lynx converters, and the fact that the Aurora cost me about 1k less then the Avid interface.

The 192 i/o actually works perfectly with Pro Tools 11:

I think the 96 i/o should work as well.

Maybe Avid is not responding because they have something great for us!

What about trading our "old" ProControls and Control 24s for Avid new EUCON 3.0 controllers with a GREAT trade-in value?
Maybe this might happend at the end of this year or winter NAMM 2014 (please don't quote me on this one, I am just guessing)

It seems obvious that new controllers are coming. The SL3 is evidence as is the simple fact that EVERYTHING in the line is need of refreshing including the Euphonix products.

Forget the Control|24. If they kill the C|24, D-Command, or the Artist series, I am not going to be happy. I don't just mean the ability to buy those controllers. I mean the same fate as the Control|24. None of the controllers I just mentioned are as old as the Control|24. I understand that eventually the controllers I mentioned will be unsupported and will stop working. That day better not be on AVID's roadmap yet.

Of course there are new things coming but I don't care. I don't want to spend money on changing my control surface and rebuilding my custom desk for a new one when my control24 work without hick-ups, just because there are no driver coming from avid out of marketing decisions.

I will accept the day it stops working because the electronics fail in the motors and what not, not that it stops working because avid decides to not write a stupid driver for it.

What I've been told is the controllers are basically "dumb", it's all done in the software. So write the drivers already!
