Default Does PT ultimate come with older PTHD10+11+12 Licences ?

Hello all


all is in the title.


the reason i'm asking this is that i just bought a PT11 licence but i cannot use it with my old 192 i/o

The reason i bought this PT11 licence is that i am still running OSX 10.8.5 & in order to use EastWest sound banks in 64bits mode so the idea was, working with midi using EW, summing the tracks and import them into PHD10 to get Mixed.


But now i am forced to use the mac core audio. I am affraid printing using the core audio will not be as good as printing with the 192.

So i am considering buying a HD Native card which i think will let me use blue 192 BUT i need to do a crossgrade from PT11 to PTHD 11 which became impossible
Or mabe do a crossgrade from my actual PTHD10 licence to actual version ?


any thoughts ?

AFAIK, the perpetual license bundle comes with PT10 --> current but subscription does not. If you can find a reseller that still has old stock of "reinstatement" (of support and update plan), you can use it to upgrade your PT10HD to current version. Do not buy "renewal" though, it requires your support plan is currently active.

Hey JFreak

thanks for shiming in !

well i am not sure to understand when you say i can find a receller that still has a "reinstatement" (of support and update plan)"
Does that mean i can still use PTHD10 &/or PTHD 11 after all ?

I precise as you may remember that i am still on TDM versions for tracking + mixing. My goal is using PTHD11 with my 192 for midi work with EastWest + printing and then get back on TDM with HD10 for mixing.



EDIT : something like this ?

It sounds like you are planning on jumping back and forth between PT10 & PT11. Be aware that even if you get a PT 11HD license, you won't be able to use your 192s with the TDM cards on PT11. TDM cards will not work past PT10. I don't think the TDM cards and the HD Native card can coexist in the same computer, even if you're only using one at a time. So, if you wanted to switch back and forth between 10 & 11, you would need to swap the cards in and out of the computer and swap the connections to the 192s each time, which would be a ROYAL pain in the ass. If you planned to stay with the HD Native card, then there would be no real reason to go back to PT10, unless it is for plugins that didn't make the transition to 64-bit. But you definitely wouldn't get the benefits of TDM low latency tracking.

ah ... you made a good point there
okay first i was aware of the tdm plugins not working with Hd11 - that's no problem at all

BUT as you just said there might be some incompatibilities with Hd native card and my actual PE6R4-i card.

That i have to check out and have no clue where to find that info.

And yes i still use PTHD10 TDM for tracking + mixing - into almost mixed sessions so yeah : real advantage in terms of comfort for all of us here when tracking

Okay thank you very much Scotty

I don't it's so much a compatibility issue with the Magma chassis as it is an issue with those cards (TDM & HD Native) being able to cohabitate in the same computer at the same time, even if they are not being used at the same time. I think it's driver compatibility and the cards fighting over the PCIe bus.

ahah ah excellent !
thanks

but to be honest, i don't think there is one single released osx version after SL that is not crap at all. And it got even worse when some stupid moron at apple decided to change the GUI without even leaving us the choice to stay on the original osx GUI - mountain lion could have been nice if it hadn't been an avorted OS...

anyway, what would be your osx choice then ? and why ?
