PT11 demo and Avid plugs

[musicman691]

Downloaded the demo for PT11. Something I don't understand is is 11 using the same plugin folder for aax plugs that 10 uses? If so why doesn't it see things like Reverb One, Eleven, Tel-Ray delay and Moogerfooger bundle all of which I have licenses for? Do I have to install the ones that come with the PT11 installer? And if I do - what happens to the full licenses I have for these plugs in PT10?

Understood. But when I go to install the new versions of the 4 plugs I mentioned the installer throws up the usual warning message of another file of the same name existing in the same place the installer wants to place the new file. In OSX I have the option of replacing the old file with the new one or keeping both or canceling. It would seem to have both PT10 and PT11 compatibility I would need to have both the old and the new in the same folder, right? If I do that will the relevant PT version be able to distinguish between the two different files and open the right one?

AAX2 works in 32 bit mode but not the reverse.

Thanks - didn't know that as I don't think I've seen that mentioned anywheres. I thought they were mutually exclusive the two versions of AAX - learn something new every day.
