HDX rig/PT Studio software: will PT see the HD|IO?
As above. Obviously the DSP wouldn't be available, but would the HD|IO still function as a CoreAudio device, or is the Ultimate package required to have a driver?
[edit: I have a PT Ultimate perpetual license and pay for the support package. So if I switched to Studio, I would think my system would still work as it is and would only stop when I needed to update something. Wouldn’t that be the case?

HD I/O has a digi mini link connector to interface with the computer. HD I/O doesn't work as a stand alone AD/DA converter into AES or ADAT etc. You must have either an HDX card or an HD Native card to use an HD I/O.

Re: HDX rig/PT Studio software: will PT see the HD|IO?
No. Pro Tools Studio will not be able to use the HDX card and HD I/O as a core audio device. Pro Tools software is locked out from using Digilink devices if there's no HD/Ultimate license present. You can use the HDX card and HD IO as a core audio interface for any other DAW, just not Pro Tools, unless you have an HD/Ultimate license. (Digilink I/O license is no longer required for the latest PT versions, but was required for a range of versions, maybe from about 12.4 to 2021.x? but don't quote me on that).

Re: HDX rig/PT Studio software: will PT see the HD|IO?
The variable I will insert into the above is that I have a perpetual license. That should mean if I stop paying for the support package, though I lose the plugins that go with it, my system should work as it is until something needs an update - isn’t that the case?

Re: HDX rig/PT Studio software: will PT see the HD|IO?
If I'm understanding what you're asking, as above you need Ultimate to use your HDX.
If you don't want to renew your Ultimate Update & Support Plan, your Perpetual Ultimate license will authorize the latest Pro Tools release before your Plan expired. You will lose any "extras" that are only available with a current Update & Support Plan. Personally, if that's your plan going forward, I would buy a Reinstatement Code from an Avid Reseller - NOT Avid as you can't bank it if you buy from the Avid Store - and keep the Reinstatement Code until you want or need to update your Perpetual Ultimate license.
