It's a shame because Falcon is pretty amazing and capable but I guess it was a good run.

Humm to clarify are you certain Falcon is tied to the current annual support plan period, and will not continue if you keep your plan current thru annual renewal ? Because for example I still have functioning (add on promo licenses) for things no longer offered like Loom, Twist and Vacuum Pro
If it does expire even with continued renewal ? that is a shame because Falcon is great and I really like the new Piano plugin...

I don't think that Falcon will stop working - there just won't be anymore updates and forget about downloading the program or the Avid Plugsound soundbank. I know about the latter - when I did not renew my support and update plan both the download for Falcon (yes it was in my account even though I purchased it direct from UVI after a short while) and the Avid Plugsound soundbank went away. Check the release limit date on your iLok and see what the date is (if any).

Yes according to Avid the iLok license will expire so you will not be able to authorize it when it loads.

To be sure check the expiration date on your iLok. Mine was tied to the expiration date for my update/support plan for PT. Like I said I played it smart and purchased Falcon when UVI had one of their 30% off sales on Falcon.

Well poopy head Avid .... I just checked in FAQ, and it looks like it will operate UNTIL you reach your renewal date (for me Jan 31, 2023 ) and then the iLok license expires ----"dam sam,,, I'm gonna miss that girl"

I'd wait for a UVI 30% off sale and buy Falcon from them.
