Default I want to configure the Protools system in Windows 10.

Hello
I am using protools 12.5 HD.
My computer specification is as below.

Windows 10
Intel 9900KF 8core.
Gigabyte z390 Elite.
RME UFX+


The question is,

1. I want to know the compatibility of Native PCIE and PC Protools 12 or higher.

2. Can I use Native TB3 using GIGABYTE GC-Titan Ridge?

3. I want to buy 192io for many pre-amps and hardware connections. I want to know the compatibility with Native and Windows 10.

4. Could you recommend another interface or converter?

5. Is Native card and protools Omni compatible with Windows 10?

6. Would it be better to purchase a pro-tools ultimate?
Or, should I just purchase the 12.5 version or higher?

no problems with compatibility
2. Can I use Native TB3 using GIGABYTE GC-Titan Ridge?
I can't answer that one, but the PCIe card would probably save money anyway
3. I want to buy 192io for many pre-amps and hardware connections. I want to know the compatibility with Native and Windows 10.
The 192 still works fine. Make sure you understand the differences between a 192 and the 192 DIGITAL(and hopefully you already know that you need preamps to connect to the 192's)
4. Could you recommend another interface or converter?
On a budget, the 192 is tough to beat. While you can buy better, it cost a lot more and doesn't make better music
5. Is Native card and protools Omni compatible with Windows 10?
Yes. Keep in mind that the OMNI will cut your total possible IO form 64 to 56.
6. Would it be better to purchase a pro-tools ultimate?

Only if you need the features that 12.5 is missing. If you do move to any newerversion of PT, you will also need to get a digilink license($299)

The current 2020.12 Pro Tools Ultimate has come a long way since Pro Tools 12.5 HD – it’s definitely worth considering.

If you bought a used version of Pro Tools 12.5 HD and the Seller filled out the Avid Audio Transfer of Ownership Form:
https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/ar...S/FAQ/en363631

You’d then have Pro Tools 12.5 HD in your Avid Master Account>My Products – which could then be upgraded to the latest version of Pro Tools (which includes the Digilink I/O license), by using an “Expired Plan Reinstatement” – which you can buy for US $599:

Thank you for answering my question.

I have an additional question.

1. I'm curious about the exact difference between 192io analog and 192io digital!
If you have any information, please link to the website.
2. I want to use 16 channels of pre-amp and various hardware. How should we organize 192io?
3. I am using the genelec 8330 speaker.
Can you recommend a monitor controller?
4. As you advised, I would like to organize native pcie card and 192io. Is there anything important I need to know?

Thank you for your answer!

What I'm curious about is,
Is it possible to upgrade any version of protools to $599?

Well, I mean, for example, prtools 11, 12, 2018, and so on.

I wonder if it's 599 dollars regardless of the version.

Not any version.

Can be used with Pro Tools 9 HD right up to Ultimate – so yes, it covers the versions you mentioned.

If you buy this Reinstatement, do not register the Reinstatement Code with Avid until you are ready to use it, because your new Plan will start immediately (upon registering the Code with Avid).

If you want to stay on (say) Pro Tools 12.5HD for a while, just hold on to the Code until you’re ready to upgrade.

https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/ar...nstatement-faq

Q: If I purchase a reinstatement and do not immediately redeem, will it expire?

A: No. When you purchase a reinstatement from a reseller the code does not expire and you are able to use it at a future time. (Important to note that the clock on your Software Updates and Support Plan starts when you redeem the code in my.avid.com/products/redemption.) Avid will continue to honor reinstatement redemptions after we discontinue selling them.
