Ultimate Perpetual license on same iLok as Standard license

[rimskykorsakov]

Hello community ,


after 14 years and 3 months of being a member of this Forum, I finally decided to ask a question :


I currently own a “ProTools Standard” Perpetual License , including already paid support/update plans until the year 2030 .
Now I want to take advantage of AVID’s recent special offer and buy a ProTools CARBON Interface to get a free Permanent license for “ProTools Ultimate”,
but without buying any further support/update plan for this license.

I will install “ProTools Ultimate” on its own dedicated MacPro2013 , which I run under OS Mojave , and that I won’t update anymore ,
so a current “ProTools Ultimate” version that works on this system hopefully doesn’t need to be updated either in the future .



My question :


When I add a “ProTools Ultimate” license into my existing AVID account and store the “ProTools Ultimate” license on the same iLok where my “ProTools Standard” license and its support plans are stored ,
could this “ProTools Ultimate” license kind of overwrite the “ProTools Standard” license and its related already paid support plans ?

Should I create a new AVID account , dedicated for the perpetual “ProTools Ultimate” license only to avoid any issue between the Ultimate and the Standard licenses ?
Or is it enough to store this license on a different iLok key ?

Thanks in advance for any infos and insights on this ,
best
Gerd
