Control|24 and ProControl with Pro Tools 11?

[bcwiz]

Marketing savvy hasn't exactly been one of Avid's strong points, evidenced by over 3/4 of a million views in this thread.

The dumb thing here is that if I could use my Control24 with PT11 or 12 etc., I would be more willing to invest in other new Avid hardware and software, but at this point I'm considering moving over to Logic full time. I can still use any controller that I used 15 years ago with Logic today. The fact that avid threatens somebody who's trying to get something they decided is obsolete years ago up and running is just.... Lame.

More info on this Ethernet to midi?? C'mon we need to know.

Exactly. Myself and many others feel exactly the same way. I will never invest in any Avid hardware again until someone at the company addresses this issue.

They claim that they cannot (read will not) convert a simple 591KB driver file to 64-bit code - while simultaneously bloating the software from only 246.1 MB (Pro Tools 10.3.10) to over 1.82 GB (Pro Tools 12.7.1). This tells you everything about the development team, and governing executives.

I am having zero problems running Pro Tools 10.3.10 with my Pro Control to this day. I have an incredibly powerful Mac tower, with Accel cards and additional UA DSP hardware. Clients are always blown away by how well designed the Pro Control is. Its ergonomic and aesthetic design blows away everything since. On the S3 they put the track "Select" and "Record Arm" buttons between the faders ! Look at this close-up photo of the S3 ...

This speaks volumes about the current hardware design teams - and their lack of consulting real-world professional users.

Eucon works with every DAW that chooses to support it so it would be silly to restrict it to HD when it already works with CueBase.

I remember being told at a demonstration that the reason Pro Control was better than HUI is that the controllers addressed Pro Tools at a deep level in the code rather than just manipulating the GUI like all previous controllers had.

some clarification please?

Can I use the Control 24 strictly as Control surface with PT 11 (not HD) with Mac's Sierra OS Via Ethernet connection? or will i need to downgrade my OS and use PT 10 (not HD)?

Sorry if its a redundant question...Im purchasing the controller in 2 days.

Thanks for your help.

I was once in love with my pro control as well and thought nothing could replace it, I since ran across a sweet deal on a blue icon and realized that they did better with this one.

Granted I did not have the DSP cards to replace (that you would), I was running my Apollo....natively

But I love the icon series....get one when you are ready to upgrade.
