PT 11/12 coexist?

Can PT11 and PT12 coexist as PT10 and PT11 do?

[mesaone]

Probably not, and there would be no reason for them to.

From FAQ:

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 need to surrender your old licenses, but you will receive a new license bundle that contains Pro Tools 12 (when available), Pro Tools 11, and Pro Tools 10, so you can still use the older versions.

And that is not the same as co-install, and it's not clear if it is a co-install question being asked or not.

Given that we're a few months (guessing) from 12 being released, I bet something like this hasn't been tested much by Avid yet.

I would not put any money on being able to have 10 or 11 & 12 on the same system disk

I'd presume that 10 can coexist with 12, but not 11 with 12. Reason: different install paths/directories (10 and 11/12). My assumption only.

[heraldo_jones]

The main reason is, as you already know, that PT11 has some problems due to graphics and it has slowed down a lot, so I don want to hose my current decent working PT11 with a more buggy and sluggish PT12.

[Bob Olhsson]

I look at it this way. If 12 is more buggy, their phone support ines are going to absolutely explode! It's a whole new ballgame from what has come before.

512 MB is to small video card since 3 years ago, and pro tools 11/12 can't co-exist in the same system because is almost the same. pro tools 10/12 can co-exist, only for difference between RTAS/AAX plugins
