Firstly, I don't know where you got the impression that PT 10 wouldn't work
on Mountain Lion. It works, but just has some accessibility issues. I'm a
very regular ProTools user, as I use it every day practically with me being
a local professional musician. You're correct that there are issues with
some of the PT 11 plugins, although I don't exactly know in what way, being
I've not updated. I'm still running ProTools 10 and am perfectly happy with
it. Granted, my main production machine is running Snowleopard, as Lion had
a few, though not many, accessibility issues, but then once we got to
Mountain Lion, believe me, in many ways, certain things became an baunified
mess! For one thing, none of the counters read any longer, a lot of your
configuration values don't read any more such as obtaining your session's
tempo, etc. For someone like me who's a die hard audio engineer, these are
things I cannot live without. I guess it really depends on your workflow.
If you don't think you're going to need access to those things, then ok, but
for me, that's enough of a deal breaker, where until Avid gets their stuff
more together, and I truely see a change, I'm not taking the plunge to V11,
case closed. But ultimately, just to clarify, I didn't say PT 10 nor 11
worked well on Mountain Lion, but yes, they will work in general, and...
lquite well... if you're either sighted, or low vision and can use screen
magnification. With Voiceover alone though, it's very cut and dry touch and
go.
Chris.

Hi Chris,
I was under the impression that PT10 couldn't run under Mountain lion. Is
this the case? Also I thought that many of the PT11 plugins weren't
accessible.
Thanks for the info,
Dónal

You can run ProTools on Mountain Lion, don't get me wrong. It's just that
there are many accessibility issues that you'll probably encounter along
the way.

Cheers for that Chris. Next step now is to try and go back from Mountain
Lion to Lion on one of my machines just to run this damn thing. i have an
iMac with two HDs so I think I'll try and duel boot for now.

For now, if you buy PT 11, it will come with PT 10 as well. The simple
reason is because there are some plugins which are not yet compatible
with ProTools 11. Yes, you can run version 10 and 11 along side each
other. Quite honestly, I think that Avid is doing a very sloppy job of
development, especially doing it this way, but whatever. It's obvious my
voice isn't being heard, and though Slau Haliton has spoken with them
many times about accessibility, etc. and they promise things to get
better, don't get me started on this rant rave or we'll be here all day,
but frankly, I kind of wonder about them... them being Avid... at times.

Morning folks,
Very quick question. Does anyone know whether it is possible to purchase
a copy of Protools 10 now that they've gone to 11? I'm not seeing a link
on the product website.
Cheers,
Dónal
