Pro Tools 9HD not activated free upgrade to PT 10HD?

[Raoul23]

Hi

I have a pro tools 9HD activation card that I have not activated yet if I activate it now will I be eligible for a free upgrade to PT10HD. Like when I brought an 003 with pro tools 7 in I got a free upgrade to 8 because 8 was the latest version that was out

I am 99% positive that, yes, you will get HD10. When I got my HD Native card, the activation card said HD 8.5, but I got HD 9 because that was the current version.

...doesnt it depends on date of purchase?

Not if it was originally bundled with hardware. If it was bought standalone, then that might be a factor. I was assuming his originally came hardware.

under the impression that it was bundled with hardware... it depends on date of purchase...

if its stand alone.. pro tools HD10 is only sold with avid hardware, HD/NATIVE or HDX as far as I know... unless bought off ebay or something... so no i do not think you'll get free ride...
