Re: Bought a Carbon. Now what?
Well that makes it sound like I can sell the Ultimate licence that comes with the Carbon. I'd love to just be able to get the information straight from the horse's mouth, but I still haven't heard back from Avid. On a side note, does anyone know how to set the monitor outputs to unity gain? Is unity gain just all the way up? I'm running them into a monitor controller. I can't see any info about this in the manual (though to be fair, I just searched the manual for "unity" and nothing came up).

No it doesn't. He said he sold his EXISTING Ultimate license which he already owned.

There is no meter or measure or setting for the output volume control.

Re: Bought a Carbon. Now what?
Nope I sold the Ultimate license Avid’s gave all Carbon users as a bonus. I kept my own Ultimate license and the Protools license that came originally with the Carbon. What I’m not clear on is whether Carbon now only comes with a Single Ultimate license!?

This is totally inconsistent with what Avid publish in the product pages, but if that's what you did, that's what you did. I'll shut up and let Avid answer. Dominic

Re: Bought a Carbon. Now what?
Hey my friends...
1 - Can I register my Carbon without the Activation Card that came with it? No. Send me a private message with the SN on the bottom and we should be able to recover it though. 2 - What if I already have an existing Pro Tools license? When you register Carbon, if you have an PT Studio or Ult (the two tiers that support Carbon) active Subscription or Perpetual (still under support), you will receive a notification that the PT Ult Perp activation has been placed into Products Not Yet Downloaded so you can choose how you would like to move forward. If you want the added features of PT Ult, you can activate it right then n there. If you want to let your active PT lapse and then activate the Ult, you can do that too. 3 - What do I do when my PT Ult Perp contract lapses? Ideally whatever you like. You can let it lapse and just use the PT Ult without the plugins or support. You can renew the PT Ult Perp support contract. You can get a new PT Studio Sub if the value of the Perp didnt meet your needs. 4 - Can I sell the PT License that came with Carbon? No. The Pro Tools license that came with Carbon cannot be separated and sold... the PT Studio Perp Parachute for some of you and the PT Ult Perp license for others. If you were an early adopter and you received a PTU Perp to ensure you were receiving the same value as current purchases, there is nothing preventing you from parting ways with the license. However we'd of course like it if you used them since they were intended for you. I THINK that covers most of the confusion here. m

Because I think I stated something not quite true (that the original Perp/Parachute license is the "only license" tied to the Carbon unit ) #1 So both the original bundled Perp/Parachute AND the current bundled PT Ultimate license are in fact tied to the specific Carbon HW Unit and cannot be sold separately # 3 But if you have an additional PT Ultimate license in your Products Not Yet Downloaded (unactivated) (as in the case of early purchasers who did not get the bundled Carbon with PT Ultimate ) That license is not tied to the Carbon unit and can be sold separately
