PT 2022.6 on Mac Big Sur 11.6

[Samba]

it's more than just quantising bugs.
I need to constantly close PT and open back up. I can't even grab a note and move it. I can't do a session without closing.

I'm getting more than just quantize bugs.
Every session, I have to close multiple times and re-open.

Some of the issues i am having:
I can't grab notes.
Sustains will not delete
This is happening on any instrument track I use.

These are real problems, aren't they? If you can't move a note, or delete sustains, then how can that be compatible?

Just to be clear that implies zero versions have ever been compatible because there has for always been bugs, including new ones, many related to particular user setups and much more.

Obviously, "buggy beyond repair" is an experience, and valid, but that does not regard the definition of OS compatibility.

I understand. I was responding to someone previously mentioning the quantizing bug. There are other bugs (many in fact). That is not the criteria for compatibility. As I said, compatibility has to do with being compliant with the platform standards of the operating system. If a bug cause something to not work correctly, that does not mean it is not compatible. It means that there is a bug with the program. I'm not sure how many times we need to say this.

Perhaps an analogy will help:
Say we buy a toaster and it claims to be compatible with the US electrical standard. We have the proper plug to fit the A/C outlet. It turns on and can make toast. The manual says it is supposed to work with bagels but when we put a bagel in it gets stuck (a bug in design) and burns our bagel. It is not correct to ask how can they say that it is compatible with the US electrical standard if it burnt my bagel. The fact remains that the toaster is still compatible with the US electrical standard.

Therefore let's keep the terminology and facts clear.
1. There are MIDI bugs in Protools 2022.6 that need to be fixed.
2. Protools 2022.6 is still compatible with macOS 11.6 (Big Sur).

Gotcha, thanks

I am using a MBP 2020 Big Sur 11.6.2 PT 2022.6 and I can grab midi notes and move them. I can draw in new midi motes with the pencil tool however I cannot trim midi notes. Instant error

Do you think it's worth upgrading my operating system? Just wondering if I'll see similar bugs by doing that, or if Avid will bother to actually fix these

Well, since so many people are reporting this quantize MIDI bug in 2022.6 and reverting back to 2022.5 seems to fix it. I don't recommending to 2022.6 if you use MIDI. Nobody knows when Avid will fix this bug, so we'll just need to wait and read the release notes with new releases to see.
