That's really a question for Avid. Looking here, the only modern HD interfaces that are past their final sale date are the Pro Tools | HD IO 16x16 Digital and Pro Tools | HD Omni. i.e. you can still buy a HD I/O.

It's not as if you can use the AX32 cards in a MTRX anyway... (I mean, maybe you can, but they're not supposed to work and certainly it isn't a supported configuration)

I think it's good that DAD continues to innovate. It's a pity of course there's no MTRX with a Thunderbolt port, as that would certainly be useful for Atmos renderer configurations. But perhaps that will be eventually solved in a different way.
