Default which version of Pro Tools to buy?

Hi Everyone
I have been using Pro Tools 12.5 for a couple of years, all good.

Later this year I intend buying a new computer, this will be an Apple MAc with the latest M1 or M2 or whatever it will be called, and I guess will come with at least Big Sur OS.

Which version of Pro Tools would be best to get? I never record more than 4 channels simultaneously.

I would prefer to go with a perpetual licence.

ANy pointers appreciated.

Maybe PT Standard then, unless you need surround mixer which is only available for Ultimate

"Standard" would be my suggestion as well. So many cool features are now part of the regular version, that Ultimate is not needed for anyone not working in Surround
