Hi cvicente22,

I’m in the same predicament. I have 3 PT licenses, an Ultimate Perpetual that I haven’t activated yet, an active PT Perpetual Bundle (PT Studio, PT12, PT11, PT10), and a nonactive...

Re: Carbon - How to renew? Perpetual or subscription?

So, with what was said above in red, does that mean that you are surrendering your perpetual license for a sub, or will it revert back to a perpetual when you let the sub end? And I’m strictly...

Re: Some prepurchase questions

Well, I got my Carbon. I decided to set it up on my Mac Book Pro 16” i9, 8-core instead of the Mac mini. Everything went smoothly. I got my licenses all set up and received my Ultimate Perpetual...

Re: Some prepurchase questions

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders

Thanks K Roche, I see what you’re saying and I hope that’s the case. PT hasn’t been my main DAW since 2011. I tried to keep it updated over the years but lost it at the end of 2019. Lately I’ve been...

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders

I kind of agree with spinsong. Avid could release a completely new Pro Tools that is not compatible with any of the unused renewals or not yet active perpetual licenses. One that would be...

Re: Some prepurchase questions

Well, it would seem I would get less latency using the MOTU 1248 connected via thunderbolt, with the Carbon’s ADAT into the 1248. I could then use the Carbon’s pres with thunderbolts low latency. I...

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders

For those like me that hate subscriptions, what is a reasonable amount you would pay annually to consider going subscription? For standard PT, I think I would accept $150 + 50 for all plugins So $200...

Re: Some prepurchase questions

Hi digiot, thank you for answering my questions. I’m definitely keeping my 1248. I tested the AVB on it yesterday and I was getting 9.4 ms roundtrip at 64 buffer size. I hope the Carbon can do better...

Re: 115 AAX plugins included?

Thanks for your response. That is definitely one way to think about it but my statement was more of a generalization. I’m aware that Ultimate is free at the moment but not forever and as far as the...

Re: 115 AAX plugins included?

I will answer my own question here since I just read the FAQ which I should have done in the first place. It looks like if I let the included 1-year subscription/plan expire into perpetual, I will...

I ordered a Carbon but they are on back order at the moment. That gives me some time to make sure this is the right choice for me. Here are a few questions that I have before I really commit.

Quick question

The sales page for carbon at online retailers states that it Includes 115 AAX DSP plugs from the Avid Complete Collection. Now along with the free Perpetual Ultimate license, do you...
