SDII File Format; When Was It Dropped ?
A bit lazy of me to post this question ;
At which Pro Tools version was SDII dropped ?

PT11? But it's a Mac-only format AFAIK. Those have been converted to AIFF/WAV for ages...

8 or 9. You can still read SDII. Only recording as SDII was dropped.

Re: SDII File Format; When Was It Dropped ?
Thanks .
let me clarify the question, I am checking through some old drive dupes. . I don't want to create a shed load more files, so I thought I'd use an older version of Pro Tools to open & check the sessions. I'm using PT9 & it doesn't just read SDII, it creates WAV versions. . . Which version of 'Tools will open the sessions without creating WAV versions of the audio files ?

Of course, just "get info" on the old session files & they are PT 5.1.
So I'll try opening with PT 5 or 6

I'd say 8.0 as in the last PPC version. Lots of stuff was dropped when PT went Intel-only.

Not sure if this is helpful to you, but Pro Tools 7.4 introduced Elastic Audio...
