Unless I am mistaken, I can get Pro Tools 12 for $199.00 in an LE update promotion.
I have 6 LE and an old Mbox.

Looks like a good deal. I am thinking of going for it.
What do you think? No brainer?
Is Pro Tools 12 any good?
All of my vst can also be installed as aax so I won't lose any of that.
 
 

I love Pro Tools 12.2..it has been incredibly stable and
reliable...



 

Larry, what Windows version are you running PT12.2 in: 7, 8.1, 10?

Pro Tools 12.2 on Windows 10 Preview Build 10547
 
I'm on the Fastrack for Previews...so always get the latest version...

Thanks, Larry. It is not actually Windows 10 approved yet but the fact that it is working for you is good news in that it is not too far off.

Yep..it's worked on every version of Win 10 I've installed...I've been
quite surprised by it...

MF has an open box of the update $175.11 so I ordered it.
That's the perpetual Pro Tools 12 license with 1 year of updates. Great deal!
You have to have a hardware box (M-Box 2) that came with LE and submit the serial number of the hardware box.
The hardware serial number has to have not been used for a previous upgrade.

Good Job Mike!  That's a great deal!

Wow what an effort to get it and then install it, plus it hangs on start up when scanning plugins.
 
Saying Bye bye to the so called "industry standard" !!!
 
My verdict, don't bother.
 
Cheers,
Jerry
