exactly my point...if am a customer considering finally upgrading to hdx...the old plugin finder is gone...i tell you that i am trying to find a list of aaxdsp plugin and you as the rep tell me that the list doesnt exist and you dont know...what does that say about you and your company?

then on top of that you finally refer my case to "specialist" h=whi then writes me and says:

"This is Nestor from Avid Audio Technical Support. We
apologize for the inconvenience. We do not have list of all
available AAX-DSP plugins since there are a lot of third
party plug ins developer in the market and they are
continuously updating and changing their products. The only
plug ins finder that we can provide for the customer is the
link below.

https://shop.avid.com/?cclcl=en_US#s...ats=AAX+DSP+64

Also contacting the re-sellers might give you more
information regarding AAX-DSP plug ins available from their
stores since they are not limited to Avid products."

and the link that they provided was the exact same link I had been looking at before...then what am I suppose to think?

the links that you guys provided was exactly what i was looking for...yes i am pissed off that i am paying for support and asked a very simple question that could not get resolved until I posted here and at gearslutz...especially when i about about to drop $$$$ and what i am getting from avid is discouraging to say the least.

for what it's worth i 100% agree and it;s what stopped me from looking at HDX to solve my low buffer issue to be able to monitor with fx through pro tools. I check the plug in finder every week, and they still haven't added the aax dsp selector there.. it's like they are purposely making it extra hard to find dsp plugins and it doesn't make sense.

There are other sources also on the net that provides a list

thank you Emcha

but the OP's point stands don't you think? That the actual company itself is now for 2 months (or is it even more?) not providing a way to find a list of dsp plugins? It's like they don't care..

why don't avid even link to say "for those wanting a list of all dsp plugins as our plug in finder is under construction, please visit so and so .com"

AAX DSP vs AAX Native from the database is 174 to 979 which pretty much sums it up.

I have an HDX3 system. I fully expect if the new CEO does his job my HDX3 will be worthless.

Waiting for ProTools UNLIMTED. The ultimate native solution.

I agree an amalgamation of Native and HD would be best for the platform.

It will be interesting to see what happens.

I guess there will always be some form of AAX DSP though for the S6L?

The beautiful thing of the Hybrid engine is that you will only need AAX DSP plugs when you want low latency. So only buy AAX DSP for your tracking plugs.
I wish Avid did this 5 years ago.

I have been working in a "hybrid" mode for years. I use a Neve console for no latency tracking.

Just curious how many more years we are going to get out of the HDX cards?
The Texas Instrument DSP chips are of the 2006 era.

Anyway... happy mixing.
