Pro Tools 12 bundle?

[sw rec]

When I installed 12.0, it overwrote 11 but not 10.

Which begs the question, how then, do we use the 11.3.2 update that only PT12 owners seem to have gotten?

a conundrum ... a riddle wrapped in bacon ... so you have a license for 10,12 but no 11 ... i hope to have all 3 ...

I believe Avid has dropped the 3 license combo and now you get PT10/12 since PT11 is not a bridge like PT10 and PT12 is what people upgrade to from lower versions. I think i have that statement somewhere and will post it if i find it.

Snip Snap from Avid Website:

Q: Will I have to surrender my old license when I upgrade to Pro Tools 12? Will I lose my Pro Tools 10 license too?
A: You will retain a Pro Tools 10 license for 32-bit compatibility when upgrading to Pro Tools 12. Your old license will need to be surrendered but you will receive a new license bundle for Pro Tools 10 and 12, so you can access older sessions with RTAS plugins as well as the new Pro Tools 12 application. // End of Snip.

Yes, there are 10/11/12 bundles which were delivered as part of the full Upgrade Plan or with new purchases.

My iLok us currently showing the 10/11 removed and replaced with 12. Have other who have upgraded seen the same?

The $99 Pro Tools Annual Upgrade Plan at http://shop.avid.com/ccrz__ProductDe...%23DYNAPA20003 is just a Pro Tools 12 license as stated in the Info for that option ("...upgrade your copy of Pro Tools 11 to Pro Tools 12..." and "Your upgrade includes: Pro Tools 12 license..."). The FAQ will be updated to reflect this.

Thanks Jeffro for clearing that up as the website isn't 100% clear on that

jeffro, can you be very clear ... did i just lose my PT10 license ??? because i had a 10,11 bundle ???

UPDATE: i hope that did not come off sounding rude .. i did not mean it that way .. just would be great to know .. and a quick question .. UnInstall 11 and then Clean Install 12.2 .. is this the best way .. ?? the only way maybe
