Re: Pro Tools on Linux/Unix
I was able to install ProTools 10.3.10 using crossover in Ubuntu studio. I’m still having issues with it recognizing the eye lock but I think I might be able to figure it out. I’ve never gotten his clothes before. I had to do custom Wine configuration, and install mini libraries, fonts, etc. it’s been a game of trial and error, but I’m determined to make it work.
I should also know that it only works with a valid license, the cracked version will not work. I have a perpetual license for versions 10 through 12.5.2 as well as the subscription for the new Pro Tools studio. Haven’t tried that one yet in Linux. I did try 12.5.2 which did not work, however I didn’t put as much effort into it as I did with 10.3.10. Given that Apple’s Logic is Avid’s main competitor, and most serious ProTools users prefer the Mac platform, there is a clear conflict of interest between the two companies. It would be a smart business decision, I think, for Avid to port ProTools over to Linux and even sell their own custom machines with special version of Ubuntu Studio, or something similar.

Actually, most interfaces nowadays are plug-and-play with Mac & Linux. My Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 does not require drivers for either OS. With windows, on the other hand, it does, in order to work with full functionality Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

OK that would make sense why I was able to get ProTools 10.3.10 working somewhat through Crossover in Ubuntu studio. Probably because it still uses RTAS. I’m going to try it without loading the explosions at all and see if I can get it to fully work now Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Are used to. And I want to go back to it because it was so much smoother that way and safer. Especially when I have a multi boot system with older versions of software, etc. Right now I have too much running on my machine Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
