Default Protools As It Is Today
First of all people should know that PT11 works great with Sierra, which is an excellent OS to use.

What progress did Avid make since that version?

One things definitely happened - all kinds of new words came up - things like Perpetual, non-perpetual, ultimate, monthly subscription, annual subscription.... Clearly there are Avid employees who's job it is (rather than help the audio community) to create 'situations' which will make the company money at the expense of their users.

It's common knowledge among retailers that Avid are unhelpful. Engineers are moving on to other DAWs.

Well done Avid - you are making yourselves gradually more and more hated.

I intend to upgrade my software around Christmas 2029...

the subscription idea has lead to 2018-2019 pt,
stuff late and lame, what incentive does avid programmers, or even management have to provide solid updates?*or even remain competitive?
what is has clearly done is created complacency .....
I downloaded a demo of studio one, I purchased it the next day, drag and drop baby, what a workflow.
have fun with pro tools guys.*
