New Features and Enhancements
Pro Tools® and Pro Tools | Ultimate software version 2019.10 provides the following new features and enhancements.

-Bounce Multiple Stems to a Single Interleaved File

-Scan Audio Files for Irregularities

-SMPTE ID in WAV Files

-Exclude Non-Timeline Related Clips

-Cut All Automation Key Commands

-Increased Channel Count for Core Audio with Dolby ATMOS Production Suite

-Steep Breakpoint Smoothing Time Preference

-Logging Enhancements

-Pro Tools Analytics
Opt-in (or Opt-out) to provide Avid with anonymous information on feature use to inform development, and improve stability and per- formance.

-Updated Avid Video Engine

The video engine and breakpoint smoothing are the only standouts, and let's pray that the engine has actually been fixed this time (it has been worked on for years and still fails for many). The others are largely simple clerical code revisions (e.g. change "x=8" to "x=16").

One of these New Features bullet points is the ability to send data to Avid. We are blessed, PT users!

Surely we have reached that point already? The yearly price is more than unreasonable and people are downing Tools for something else.
