HDX Firmware Upgrade for Upcoming PT2019
Hi!
Since it has been confirmed by AVID that they are adding extra voices for PT2019 Ultimate users, do you think HDX cards will require firmware updates or will it be a pure SW matter?

Firmware updates have typically been rather painless.

Hopefully it also sorts out the TB3 compatibility!

... and hopefully the HDX firmware update is fully backward compatible!

Re: HDX Firmware Upgrade for Upcoming PT2019
It would be great to know if loading the PT 2019 HDX firmware will require re-flashing 2018 firmware for the awkward period where I may need to revert to PT 2018 from time to time.
I guess the question is: Will the PT 2019 HDX firmware be fully compliant with ProTools 2018? |

I guess the answer is: no. But we will see soon enough, I'm sure the readme answers this.

Re: HDX Firmware Upgrade for Upcoming PT2019
According to avid the extra voices won’t be available on HDX rigs for a few months yet.
The voice packs will be available in pro tools ultimate standalone and HDN. Read the interview on pro tools expert with avid https://www.pro-tools-expert.com/hom...sive-interview They mention it and from what I read there’ll be no firmware update yet James Welch Recording Engineer | Producer Masterlink Productions Mac Pro 5,1 (Mid 2010) | 3.46GHz Six-Core Intel Xeon | 32GB Ram | AMD Radeon R9 280X 3072 MB | 256GB Samsung SM951 SSD Blade (PCIe) System Drive | 1TB WDC Sample Drive | 4TB RAID 0 Seagate Audio Drive | UAD-2 Quad PCIe Sierra 10.12.6 | Pro Tools Ultimate 2018.10 | HDX | Avid Omni | Avid 16x16 HD I/O x2 | Digidesign 192 | Digidesign C24
