Avid Pro Tools Perpetual Reinstatement (Upgrade) Licenses Are BACK For A Limited Time!

Standard Pro Tools Reinstatement (or Upgrade)--bit.ly/ProToolsUpgradeSKU
Pro Tools Ultimate Reinstatement (or Upgrade)--bit.ly/ProToolsUltimateUpgrad...
One of the worst things Avid did in recent memory in my opinion was remove the ability for Pro Tools users to upgrade their software license. They did this through the reinstatement sku. But, a little over a year ago they actually discontinued that sku.
That meant that you had to either crossgrade your perpetual license to a subscription which was really not a great deal or buy a whole new perpetual license if you needed to upgrade and hadn't kept your license on an annual renewal plan.
Well, Avid heard the cries of anguish from their users and I suspect want to improve their 4th quarter sales and are offering the reinstatement license again for a limited time through December 31st 2021.
So, if you were upset you lost out on the ability to upgrade an old Pro Tools license THIS IS THE TIME since we have no way of knowing when or if they'll bring it back in the future. Click on the links below if you want to read more about the license or purchase it.

One thing I didn't mention in the video. The pricing is also discounted through the end of the year! $249 ($50 off) for a standard Pro Tools upgrade and $499 for a Pro Tools Ultimate license ($500 off!)

Duuuude you saved my life! Thanks... Really thanks, My Protools 10 HD License was out of date and this video saved me like several thousand bucks! Thank man! Keep Up!!!!!

[@DavidBakhash]

Thank you!!! So exciting

[@mikenorrismusica]

Thanks for the video, very clear but I have one "ilok" question related to it: I have a perpetual PT license (v. 2019.12.0) registered in a psychical Ilok key. I am evaluating if I buy a perpetual license of PT 2022 (the "$249.00 Pro Tools Studio Annual Perpetual Upgrade & Support Plan - GET CURRENT" offer that is available on my Avid account).

It's a great day to switch to cubase, kids.

[@redwarv4034]

March 2022 and they still have perpetual reinstatement plans available. I just upgraded to an M1pro mac and this saved my Protools investment. Thank you for the heads up.

I have protools studio formally protools standard perpetual since the start of the subscription service

[@GiovanniDre]

apparently now it's subscription only.. I emailed support and am waiting on a reply for my personal situation. Also you said it's like a magazine, but with magazines you still keep the old ones and can re read them lol

I need help starting my home studio

[@giovannigiannis5670]

Thanks for this video. It clears up some stuff, but I still need some help. I have a perpetual license, with the latest running version on my 2018 Mac Mini (macOS Mojave 10.14.6) being 2019.10.0. Just before making a blunder on my Avid account, I was able to download the dmg for Pro Tools version 2020.11.0. I have not installed that dmg yet. But shortly after downloading that dmg, I clicked on a “submit” button in my Avid account that launched my perpetual license (which said “expired” on it, but had some non-Subscription purchasing options available for $349) to the “cancelled/expired” section. Now, I don’t see the option to re-download that same 2020.11.0 dmg anymore. Instead, I see a tab for Pro Tools Studio that says “Active” until Oct 2023. And it has payment options in a dropdown menu. One being a $199 1-year Software Updates + Support Plan RENEWAL,” and the others being clearly marked as “subscription” for PT Studio (annual, $299), PT Studio (monthly, $31.99), and PT Ultimate ($999). I don’t know what button I clicked that launched my license into Cancelled page. It didn’t take me to a payment page, and I don’t even have a valid cc on file. But by the look of my iLok, I see (a) my perpetual license is still there, and (b) Pro Tools Studio (along with some bloatware) is also on my iLok, as of today, shortly after pressing that submit button. The thing is, I can’t tell if I messed up by pressing that, or if it’s okay. I’m really not sure what all these options in front of me are, as they’re vague. What I want is (a) keep my current perpetual license (hopefully installing that newer dmg will also be fully functional), and (b) purchase the upgrade to Pro Tools Studio, also on a Perpetual plan, without forfeiting my older versions.

Can I still get a perpetual license? If I have a subscription can I upgrade my subscription to a perpetual?

[@jamesgame83]

Hi GearCage, I checked out your Ultimate Perpetual license link and it looks as though it's still available, can you confirm that it is and I'm not paying $499 for an out of date deal? And is it the ProTools Ultimate software I'll br getting, or just the support and upgrade plan? Also, the Ultimate version that recently expired is from an education discounted code, will the deal upgrade from that version or is it necessary that my expired Ultimate was purchased at full price? Sorry but I'm literally so confused?!? The more I get into it the more confused I get!!

[@msdrumete]

Hi, thank you for this info but the link you put is linked to a muted trumpet ?

[@Matchat11]

expired perpetual license ! avid are kings

[@audiogatorproductions5625]

Thanks for this. I have pt 12 and am looking at the reinstatement. Will I have to surrender PT 12 in order to reinstate my upgrade plan. Or can I keep it and do I get all versions between 12 and 2021?

[@vedder113]

Hi man! I have Pro Tools 12, which obviously has expired a long time ago. I want to make an upgrade, so can you tell me what is the most convenient? To buy a $249 Pro Tools Studio Annual Perpetual Upgrade & Support Plan ... or a $299 1-year Subscription?

[@smkndagramz1733]

I paid for the perpetual license but it doesn't show up anywhere in my ilok or plug-ins 🤔 I cant access protools could you maybe help ? In my avid account it shows subscription plans for 199 and up but font need since I've got the perpetual

[@bluematrix5001]

Too much stupidity with Avid, #1 for people that Buy a license the renewal should be way less than for somebody that has only rent or renewal..and should not be penalty if you are not using a version for sometime and you want to get the latest version, either for rent, renewal etc

[@LondonSkyTV]

Hahaha "expired Perpetual License" ....make it make sense
