If I don't buy the Annual "UpGRADE", will I still get the PTHD11 "UpDATES"?
I can't find the information on this guys.
I have Pro Tools HD 11.3.2 As I understand it, if I do not get the annual plan, then I can't upgrade to PTHD 12 (and beyond), this is fine. But wil I still get the free "Updates" for my existing PTHD11 after 2015 is over in a few days time? (After all, I still paid $1000+ for PTHD11 !) All I need is the latest version of PT11HD to be fully compatible with the latest El Capitan OSX, which means all I'm waiting for is the last free "update" to be released, I don't need to go to PTHD12. So do I need to get the upGRADE plan in my case? I have this info here, but what does the Annual Upgrade Plan change about it?: http://www.avid.com/us/about-avid/le...s-and-upgrades Thanks.

Do you know for sure that they are ever even going to update 11 and qualify it for El Capitan? I'd think they would never bother, since 12 is El Cap compatible.
Also, as I read it, you are correct in fearing that they will no longer offer 'any' updates unless you on a support plan, not just for 12, but also for 11. BUT, that's just my understanding, it's all so confusing, that could be wrong. But I would assume as soon as 12 came out, they'd stop making 11 compatible with new OS. |

It's very simple.
Ask yourself what you would do if you were a money grabbing SOB?

I bought protools 11hd upgrade on 4/2/14. So not even a year and a half later my software will be un-upgradable. I will never upgrade under a gun.

It's been said here many times from people that know that there are no more updates for PT11. And even if they are there are no more free updates; 11.3.1 was the past freebie. The only people that got 11.3.2 are either on the paid update plan or got it from a friend. Avid went back on their word when they (in the form of Tony Cariddi) said here and elsewheres that updates for PT11 would be free and no need to be on a paid plan

Jack:
I appreciate you saying that "people who know" have said there are no more updates for PT11.x. But it's Avid's responsibility to come out in public and state clearly what is and what's not. Avid has a terrible habit of sidestepping unpopular issues, and stonewalling until they just go away. Jim |
