Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
...Also releasing now to native gives Avid the ability to sell voice packs.
I mean, are we really going to ignore the financial benefit for Avid?

Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
No, I exaggerate. I have waited from the beginning of January like everyone else for a 219 update. You caught me!

Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
Me? This is the first time I've brought up that Avid is releasing a product feature early for the lower product that usurps the territory of the flagship product because they want to make a buck.
If this wasn't a potential money earner, they would have held it back until they sorted the HDX situation out. It's just bad form.

Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
Quite disappointed here over the hdx thing. The ONLY reason I renewed my subscription was for the increased voice count on hdx...now I am not sure exactly what the $400 was for. I don't know what the "near future" means. Avid could always take the hit and swap out the cards for the 15% user base where the upgrade doesn't work. the simple fact that I've kept current with my subscription should mean something.
I've been on pro tools since version 5. Been through tdm to tdm 2 to aaxdsp and 3 sets of cards (mix/accel/hdx), have owned all or most of their plugins for over 10 years or more now. I'm just not really seeing the benefit of this subscription other than putting money in Avid's pocket. At least with Waves Wup I get new plugins every year...not that I need more. I guess natively the voice count thing is ok at best. My dante based Presonus Studio One rig has unlimited voices and a delay compensation engine up to I believe 32,000 samples. It can also record audio at buffer size of 16 samples at 44.1/48k. Avid is losing me and has been for sometime. I hope they do something that makes me want to stay on this train other than my one sided loyalty or how heavily i've invested in them over the years. Something... |

Re: HDX card still only shows 256 tracks
They say Pro-Tools HDX users that have HDX cards DO NOT get any extra voices. This is reserved for the non-HDX card users. Look this up in Pro-Tools expert, at least that is how I understood it and by the way...I am in the same boat! I think you have to be a lower level user (Native or without HDX hardware) to get free extra voices. With HDX cards you can not even 'rent' or buy any extra voices, you need to buy more HDX cards!

may be is time to dump the hdx cards and go native, it is a bad idea to keep buying HDX cards to get more voices. HDX is on its way out as this issue clearly demonstrates, the technology is too old |

AVID are trying to get the last bit of juice out of their almost 10 year old dsp cards. And they are not succeeding at this moment. I sold my hdx cards last year and realised they were a major bottleneck in performance, once I switched over to a native based system. Unless you need the extra IO that a multiple card system can give you. That seems to be the only advantage at this point. |
