Default buying PT Artist for 1 year.

I have attempted to contact Avid directly without success. My question is, I currently own a perpetual PT Studio license 2021.3.1. If I buy an annual subscription to Protools Artist, what happens if I do not renew that subscription?

Do I lose the ability to use the latest PT Artist download on my computer? Would protools then revert to the Perpetual? or am I able to continue using whatever version of PT Artist was last downloaded?

Thank you in advance for your help.

It is really simple, it is a software *subscription*, if you stop paying it stops working. This is the same for all Pro Tools subscriptions.

What completely separate other perpetual license you have is not affected, you can go back and run that old license on whatever older version of Pro Tools that it supported.

These are questions that resellers like Thomson or others should be well set up to answer and who you should be purchasing through if you need retail sales help.
