Default Re: Perpetual to Studio, will it still be "perpetual" when the license expires in 202

Yes.

Only some of the provided plugins "drop off". There is a core set of Avid plugins that remain even after a lapse of an update and support plan. The Avid Complete Plugin Bundle (which is part of the update and support plan) contains (i) the core set and (ii) additional plugins. The last time I looked (which was several years ago) a subscription to the Avid Complete Plugin Bundle was $49 per year.

Thanks.
UVI owns Falcon and whatever contract it had with Avid expired which (I suspect) is why Avid removed it from the Complete Plugin Bundle. For the most part I use third party plugins, although many of the Avid plugins are rather good.
