Re: Promo for perpetual license holders
I'm not crystal on this.. is this just for ultimate perp or can a vanilla perp also take advantage of this? The deal is on my Avid offers, downloads, etc. I'm frozen on a 2018 vanilla perp on Mojave but also have a current 2021 sub on Catalina/Big Sur that yes, like a drug, I'm hooked. Almost took the bait with the Carbon/Ultimate promo but as usual that's a lot of cash for guy who has spent TONS on Digi/Avid over the years. Would like ultimate though for some surround fun being the audio freak that I am. PS. Avid this whole subscription model, like masses have mentioned, really sucks.

For now I can choose 200 a year support or every three years buy a new license, which is the way I prefer. More time spent recording, less time spent upgrading and/or learning what has changed. But for 100 bucks to spend a year trying the new stuff without surrendering my license? That's a good deal IMO, the problem is I still haven't got a "unique avid store promo code" on my products yet. PS My GTO is in the garage. Didn't buy it new, got it in 1983. Third owner.

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders
No email or anything in My Special Offers save just the three Cranesong plugins?
Expired Your Software Updates + Support Plan expired on Sep 03, 2020 Maybe they don't want me to take up the offer, whatever it is? Stephen

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders
Same here, and I already have all 3 Crane Song plugins, and an S3 and HDX, Omni, still have my HD3 Accel since 2007, etc, etc, etc, and have been on the update path since then until Feb 2021. Just wondering what’s the secret handshake

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders
I have a perpetual license, computer running Mojave. I will update my support plan next year when it’s due, but it’s possible that said PT 2022 update will no longer work on Mojave.
One day I will get one of the new M1s, but will still want to possibly use my Mojave version once in a while on the Mojave machine. So, can two different versions of PT be used on two different computers, at different times? I would want to use 2021 PT on my Mojave computer, and any updated version of PT on a new M1. I know with Logic or Studio One I can do this, but not sure about PT. |

You buy a new license, a monthly or a yearly subscription, and keep the old perpetual one, so you have two. What you don't wanna do is "upgrade" your perpetual (and get the first months free, the whole first year cheaper, or whatever the "deal" is), because it means you surrender the perpetual license and the subscription only allows you to run the latest version. This is complicated territory, but I'm pretty shure I got it right.

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders
So in other words, unlike other Daws, PT is not allowed to be installed on two of your own computers? You have to buy two licenses?

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders
No, you can install PT on as many computers as you like. You just need the licens(es) to run them. You can have both the subscription license and the old perpetual license on your iLok, and plug it in to whichever computer you want, and run either the current or the old version of PT.

Re: Promo for perpetual license holders
Of course, if you want to be running them both at the same time, you'd need two iLoks.
