All flavors of Pro Tools use only AAX plugins, RTAS has not been supported since Pro Tools 10, around a decade ago.

Additionally Pro Tools HDX run the DSP versions of AAX that some AAX plugins include, only an issue if you have HDX and Pro Tools Ultimate.

AAX (Avid Audio Extension)
aax file extension) is compatible with Pro Tools 10 and higher. This format replaced RTAS and TDM. There are two different AAX versions; AAX Native and AAX DSP. The difference is that Native is compatible with any version of Pro Tools, while DSP requires Avid HDX hardware.

PT10 is AAX 32 only IIRC. Most all new AAX plug ins are 64 bit which means they won't work in PT10 as AAX.

Yes.

PT10 was 32bit and so was aax. It was meant to be a bridge software between old (RTAS/TDM) and new (AAX), and as such it was very successful. Nowadays very hard to find aax32 installers anymore.

PT11 and later are 64bit software using aax64.
