Default Is the option to upgrade from CPTK to HD gone?

Hello All,

Is the option to upgrade from CPTK to HD gone? Someone is selling me a CPTK license but the only reason for me to get it is to be able to still get an HD upgrade with that.

I can't find the option in the store anymore. Can anyone give me some light on the matter? I'll really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Yep, all gone.

And hopefully you know many HD software features, per-track input monitoring, disk cache, VCAs, ... are now in the latest Pro Tools 12 standard release. Surround sound, support for HD hardware and a few automation things still require a HD license.

Thank you so much for your answer. That actually sounds like I just saved a lot of money. My main reasons to use CPTK were:

- Maximized track count
- VCAs
- 256 busses <--- very important!

None of those were included AFAIK in PT11 vanilla. I really hope I get those in standard 12 now. I'll go ahead and read the papers.

Thanks again!
