Pro Tools Ultimate Reinstatement

[danyg]

Last year I bought a code for Pro Tools Ultimate Reinstatement at Vintage King.
Can I keep it and use it later for the new Protools Flex version?
I'm still waiting for full M1 support.

Flex is not a new version of PT, it's a new PT subscription plan. It consist of PT Ultimate with the Update + Support Plan and a new 3rd Party plugin plan available only for the Flex subscribers.

You can use your PT Ultimate Reinstatement plan to get current whenever you like according to Avid.

From what I've gathered an Ultimate subscription is still $399.

Sweetwater just added it and it's available on My Avid. However, you lose the Complete Plugin Bundle.

If I can find a MADI to Thunderbolt interface I'll probably sell my Omni and Native HD and go to regular ProTools.

Right now I'm using an SSL Alphalink and MADI interface as well as an Omni, which I really like. I need more inputs because I have a console and this works great.

However, $1000 for mostly video features just doesn't make sense for me.

YMMV

I'm also confused if the HD Driver will continue to come with Ultimate.

I don't see any Ultimate subscription anywhere - could you post a link? I see a $399 updates and support for perpetual, do you mean that? Otherwise it is Flex.

I've not seen any change to the Complete Plugin Bundle for perpetual with an active support plan btw.
