Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
I purchased Pro Tools 10 right before 11 came out. I think it was around April or May 2014. I was able to download Pro Tools 11 for free.
Can someone guide me to a link or explain what the cost of upgrading from Pro Tools 11 to 12 will be for me? Thanks |

Re: Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
$199 support plan is yer' ticket here. Those of us who got in before the end of December got 15+ months, now it's only 12 from when you get the plan and I'm not sure that the support plan for 11 users is available yet as I upgraded from 9 to 11 with the support plan for $199. If you're not on the support plan the cost is probably $899 for a new license. Hurts don't it?
Looks like this may be yer' support plan as it's a different stock # than the PT 9-10 upgrade plan fer' $199: Pro Tools Software Upgrades with Annual Upgrade + Support Plan

Re: Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
So if I'm not currently on a support plan I will have to pay $899 to upgrade to PT12?

Re: Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
Yep! That's the plan my man. (it's actually $899, I edited my earlier post) Or you could lease/rent it for like $50/month when those options arrive.

Re: Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
paying $50 a month doesn't make sense to me. I guess for some people it might.
I will probably stay in PT11 for now. I also use Logic Pro so maybe I will just start doing everything in there. |

Re: Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
Or get the support plan for $199 and get PT 12 and all the upgrades/updates to that. 12 is not supposed to be out for another few months from what I understand and you could wait to get on the support plan until then, The only limitation I've seen so far to get on a support plan is by the end of 2015.

Re: Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
1) People buying an upgrade to PT11 now get 12 for free when it comes out,
2) Pro Tools 12 is not available yet, 3) You don't have to do anything yet, 4) You don't have to anything when Pro Tools 12 is released, 5) You do have to make a decision about upgrading Pro Tools by end of 2015, 6) The upgrade to PT12 costs $199, 7) The upgrade includes a renewable support plan at $199 annually, 8) If you don't upgrade, your PT licence will be stuck at PT11 unupgradable, 9) If you later decide you want a newer version of PT ... a) You could to buy a new licence at $899, b) Or you could 'rent' a licence, but if you stop renting it stops working, b) You'll have two licences, c) One able to run PT10/11, d) The other able to run whatever is current at the time of purchase, plus possibly older versions (for example, when first available we've been told that the new licence bundle will include licences for 10, 11 and 12), e) That new licence, which includes support plan, will also run any newer versions released while the support plan is active, f) The same rules apply to that new licence regarding renewing the support plan, if you don't keep renewing it annually, it stops being upgradable.

Re: Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
I have let myself understand that this is a deal you should really stick to, it is way cheaper than any rental model that I can imagine. With the information I have today -- if I had a standard PT, I would just get used to this.
However, I have only used HD systems for the last decade or so, which means there is no price list available for me at this time.

Re: Upgrade from PT11 to PT12 Cost
Why isn't it mentioned somewhere on Avid site how much it will cost for PT11 owners? PT12 is around the corner and the upgrade/crossgrade plan is still only for PT 9 and 10. Surely Avid must have an idea how much they're going to ask us PT 11 owners...For now we just have to assume it's gonna be $199/$599, but they could at least say it explicitely.
