I use Logic as well, but Pro Tools still has a better overall editing workflow. I think Pro Tools Artist @ $99 per year is a really great deal. It also opens up collaboration with other Pro Tools users. Logic still comes with a ton of great content and the price is great, but this is a step in the right direction for Avid!

If I install this new version with my current perpetual license and say I let the license expire/run out, can I still use whatever version I have when it expired? This won't automatically change the account to a suscription and lose all ability to use the product? I'm scared to install it until it is verified.

Do we get same pluggins for 20 tracks and 100 tracks.n

Avid must be paying you great or will be providing you a license free of charge. Most professionals in the industry are completely livid with Avid and there anti consumer moves. I had to end up buying a perpetual license from Sweetwater after I tried doing the upgrade from pt 12 and it would not go through. Sweetwater helped me more than Avid, they let me exchange my software code and pay the difference for a perpetual. Even after that, there was a bug where it would not let me activate the new license until my Sweetwater rep bugged them until they manually activated my license. You my friend are in the minority.

Does anyone know if Pro Tools Studio will have trim automation? It would be great to be more compatible with other studios that use trim automation in PT Ultimate.

People seem to be missing that customer with existing licenses can keep their perpetual license and even continue support plans if they want, but Avid also did bring back upgrades which is huge.

I've decided on Pro Tools Artist.......I've been having numerous problems & crashes with my Pro Tools First, hopefully this upgrade will be smoother sailing? So if you please, I have 2 important questions: Firstly will my 25 compositions, part in the clouds ( I have a yearly subscription 100GB ) & the rest in the project cache ? Will these automatically transfer ? Lastly, do I need to delete or uninstall Pro Tools First as well as the plug-ins package with Pro Tools 1st.?

Is Pro tools| ultimate for education the same as Pro tools studio?

if you buy the software in the store you do not have to buy the software online

Pro Tools is absolutely killing me at the moment. Am running PT Studio, up-to-date (2022.5), on a brandnew macbook pro 16" 32go m1pro on monterey (again, fully up-to-date), and have been running into very frequent problems of PT freezing, completely at random, It could just be as simple as muting a track in the mix window, tweaking a dial in a plugin, clicking on a clip in the edit window, or selecting an option from the main menu - PT will just randomly freeze. If a track is playing, the audio will keep playing, however PT will just lock up & completely freeze, & then 'Not Respond', leaving me with no other choice but to force close the entire program 🤬 Can’t record Can’t mix 🤯 Just wondered if anyone else has been experiencing this recently??

What you didn't say is that you need internet access to use Pro Tools. I travel for work and don't have internet access regularly. Plus with the perpetual license when you go to update to the latest version, you then are on the subscription plan and will also need internet access whereas when you owned the license wasn't necessary.
