Default Has anyone purchased Protools Ultimate "Trade Up" recently?

I see a couple software websites still selling the Protools Ultimate Perpetual Trade Up for $1899 (crossgrade from Protools 11 Perpetual or higher to Protools Ultimate Perpetual w/1yr support). This software product seems to be otherwise 'no longer available' or 'out of stock' on most websites that used to carry it.

I'm wondering if anyone here has purchased this Trade Up recently and specifically if Protools Ultimate *from however long ago these licenses were created* still translates to today's "Ultimate"?

Is there any cheaper way to go up from PT11 Vanilla Perpetual to Ultimate Perpetual?

Thanks, been a while for me (now looking at M1 Macs).

My only suggestion is to use caution when buying from any non 'Avid authorized' source.

You can always check the Buy/Sell Forum here for a copy of Ultimate. 😬

I agree. That said, my most recent Avid purchases came from eBay. I bought a HEAT authorisation and another Vanilla license. Look at the pedigree of the vendor, chat to them to see if they are honourable and you should probably be OK.
