Default Re: Is the option to upgrade from CPTK to HD gone?

Thank you so much for your answer. That actually sounds like I just saved a lot of money. My main reasons to use CPTK were:

- Maximized track count
- VCAs
- 256 busses <--- very important!

None of those were included AFAIK in PT11 vanilla. I really hope I get those in standard 12 now. I'll go ahead and read the papers.

Thanks again!
