Avid Link says PT 2022.9 is on the way

[huzzam]

Avid Link popped up a notification that it had one app update. I opened it, only to find that the update was for... Avid Link. However, the release notes say, "Avid Link 2022.9 includes bug fixes and new capabilities for the upcoming Pro Tools 2022.9 software release."

So looks like we'll be seeing a new PT in the next 9 days!

It will happen before the end of the month I hear.

I wonder if we're going to get M1 native with this build. My Mac Studio is great but I'm dying to see what it will be like once software goes native!

Maybe so,

I know that with my conversations with Avid that they seem to be encouraging me to move to a workstation going forward that supports more modern macOS versions as Avid has hands tied as with Apple losing compatibility with Mojave for example. Still running al older Mac Pro Trash Can which has been solid for me even with Dolby Atmos sessions, but taxed all the same. Avid needs to got Native, which is why I have not purchased a new Mac Pro or whatever yet.

Based on a question I posed in the MTRX Studio forum that Jeff Komar responded to, I have a feeling we may finally see an integrated Dolby Atmos Renderer.

At the IBC Amsterdam two weeks ago we got a look into 2022.9.
There's going to be... Media Composer function: export Protools session!
For us audio post people a huge thing..! Not yet "autoconform" to recut yet, but still..
Also some other stuff is coming up, like AUX IO, which runs simultaneous to the playback engine.
Marker tracks are supposed to come with 2022.9 as well.
But native silicon support.. will be a release later. Probably 2022,12.
Oh, and there's a TB3 port retrofit coming up for the MTRX Studio.

I hope this is not a very big secret, as the Avid folks were happy to show these new features at the show

I hope so. They need to and I am pretty sure it is happening at some point. Logic has had it for a while. Would make my life easier-:)

That’s welcome news. I wonder when this will happen… doesn’t look like 2022.9.

Yeah, I think I've been waiting at least a year (actually longer) to re-tool my workstation. In order have a stable system for the next several years with a new Mac, compatible (during those years) and appropriate Audio IO, and OS... it feels like watching a messed-up card game between Avid and Apple. Waiting for everyone to show their cards. In the meantime, my current system (stuck on Mojave and PCI-E card) is falling into the "unsupported" valley.

Yeah. Why don't you update to Monterey at least.> I went from from Sierra, Mojave, Catalina, and then straight to Monterey a few months ago. All went well for me. Not sure what you are on though...

All good! Exciting stuff coming for Atmos for me!! Jeff Komar at Avid, I have a feeling we may finally see an integrated Dolby Atmos Renderer. YAY. Maybe Native code. That's what I am waiting for.
