Default 2021.7 on OS X 11.6

Greetings all,

Anyone running PT 2021.7 on OS X 11.6? If so, any major issues? I am still running 2021.3 on 11.2. Avid confirmed the graphic issue I am experiencing has been resolved in the newer releases but, I remain hesitant to upgrade simply because the latest compatibility chart shows 2021.7 at OS X 11.5.2.

Thank you in advance for any replies.

You could rename your current app and install 2021.7 to test it out. That way you'd have both versions installed.

Or just attach an external SSD and do a clean install of the OS and Protools to test. If all goes well, install it to your primary drive. If not, wait until a new version comes out.

Thanks. Simple solution. I appreciate you taking time to address my question.

We've got it running on 4 MacPros and I have on my personal iMac and MBPro. No issues except with HDX cards, and Avid knows about the issue I've seen and are working on it.

For myself, and several of my friends, this combo is unusable. At least with Ultimate. Extremely sluggish GUI, random black boxes/screen redraw issues, and very frequent CPU overloads that require changing the buffer in the playback engine in order to get things to play again. It's been months now and Avid still hasn't figured it out. I keep checking in with support and all they say is that they're working on it.

I am running PT 2021.7 on 11.6 with no issues on an HDX system. I know several others with native laptop systems running it as well.

Do you have a 4K monitor? PT on Big Sur is known to be problematic with 4K+ monitors.
