Just plain unfair!
PT's 11 won't support any RTAS plugins & there are many plugins seemingly not going AAX. I have my new Mac on the way, old Mac Pro was too old any couldn't run the HDX hardware in a PCIE slot. I'm trading in my Accel HD 3 for the HDX hardware & upgrading to PT's 11 this week. I won't be able to use any waves plugins(can't live without), TL space, Lexicon, TC Electronic, every phase, slightly rude compressor, god damn Virus TI!, the list goes on. Going to 11 is forcing me to throw away $, & then spend more to replace the thrown away plugins.
Someone's got to make a wrapper or avid needs to just plain do more. I'm pretty screwed either way it seems. What's the deal with VEpro? Will that let u run RTAS plugins in PT's 11? |

Re: Just plain unfair!
No one is forcing you to do anything. You can run all of your Waves, RTAS and TDM plugins just fine in 10.3.6 until things are ported to AAX-64 bit.
Pro-tools-expert.com has tutorials on how different plugins like VEP can be used to host AU or VST versions. FYI I've switched and found the McDSP, PSP and others have made it easy for me to not update my WUP plan for Waves Gold.

Re: Just plain unfair!
Waves will be updating to AAX very soon, but you will need to be current with WUP to get the updates.
TL Space is coming at some point. Lexicon eventually will, but no timetable. Don't know about TC Electronic. Slightly Rude Compressor will never be AAX because it's been discontinued by Avid (it's on the End of Life list). But as mentioned, with your HDX system, you will get a license for HD10 as well, so you can keep using both 11 and 10 until your plugins get updated. |

Virus will not work with HDX. It was TDM only and is not being ported to AAX.

Re: Just plain unfair!
The developer of Virus has claimed to be working on AAX. How do we explain the conflict in this thread -- do you know something we don't?
Also, TC Electronic has claimed to be working on AAX versions of their software though exactly which will make the transition we have yet to see. To the OP: use PT 10 for now. |

Re: Just plain unfair!
To the OP, did you not know any of this before you decided to upgrade? A liitle research goes a long way. Just say'in.

Nobody knows. I've lost hope. At least I won't be buying anything (software and hardware) from them until they port their TDM stuff to AAX -- and currently, that sounds like never.
