Starting PT|HD in native mode

[Glazik]

Hello,

As I have to teach Pro Tools to students on non HD Pro Tools machines, I would like to start my HD rig in native mode for some verifications, but I have only a HD license on my iLok.

Is there a way to achieve this (key modifier at start for example ?).

Just select a different playback engine and restart app?
I am doing it on the demo and works just fine...
FWIW

Houser, I don't only want to start with no HD hardware, but with the basic features, if possible. But I'm afraid I'll not be able.

Just ignore the extra features. Selecting an interface that is NOT an HD or HDX card, will remove any DSP. From there, just ignore VCA's and keep track count under 64(audio) and it will look and act the same as non-HD, There's a handful of other details, but again, just ignore and don't use them(but maybe mention them in explaining some differences between the versions).

That´s the point ! Using PT|HD on a daily basis, I really dont remember what are the "only HD" features sometimes.

You cannot disable all the features of HD. You can switch interfaces and disable the more hardware features. The only way of seeing exactly what they wills see is to use a seperate iLok with just a standard Pro Tools license on it.

It's an educational license, and you should probably not be paying for it anyhow right?

Of course, the machines the students use have an educational license, but I prepare the sessions at home with my own rig, which has an HD non educational license.
Well, no matter, i'll probably make some students dream to HD
