Looks like the roof is getting blown off for all the PT naysayers.......once and for all. Avid's not only been listening, they've been working their asses off!
MPowered crossgrade is almost £100 more than LE crossgrade... so even though I paid probably more than £300 for the MPTK2 for MPowered, I actually get less (relatively speaking) for more money than someone running regular LE. Hmmm...
Can I just clarify folks - I have a tdm HD2 system with a 192 - I can now use this TDM system with any core audio hardware and do away with my 192? right?
So Prism Orpheus here i come ?

I'm very impressed by this. Literally everything that I've wanted from the HD software is becoming available for my home version!
Does anyone know if the current Complete toolkit is version 2? I have the CPTK, but I can't find any verification of this, and there isn't an upgrade option for CPTK 1... can anyone answer this for me?

If you've got the authorisation for CPTK 1, you will automatically have the auth for ver 2.
Basically, buy PT9 and you'll have full HD functionality, natively, with any hardware you like (including none at all), for the price of the crossgrade.
doesnt HD still require PT hardware or emulations?
To use TDM (DSP processing, super-low latencies, etc, you'll need the HD cards, but other than that no, it doesn't need any hardware to run the software itself (other than an iLok).
does anyone knows,are those 96 stereo ,or mono track's supported in PT9?
this is great my apogee symphony with this should rock (I was so close ordering new native card,but with this...)
With the exception of MIDI functionality, I would be $hitting my pants if I was Steiny right now. They are probably PISSED over at Steinberg HQ!!! "Oh No!!, they started listening to their customers!!! NOW WHAT DO WE DO" heh
Good on Avid for finally listening and acknowledging their customer base, I hope they are rewarded with huge profits so they can continue down this path of "openess"

dude, I am so excited for this! Can't wait to get it!

No. The HD Software that is bundled with HD Systems including Native can be run without any hardware and upgraded to from the standard Pro Tools box with the new Complete Production Toolkit runs without any hardware.
The differences, if memory serves, are a 192 track count, VCA mixing, advanced automation, 7.1 DTS mixing, and something I'm forgetting.
Just glanced through the Avid site, but some things still could be clearer.
I have an HD1 Accel system... So if I upgrade to PT9, I would get the following:
-Voice count up from 96 to 192
-Can install the HD 9 software on my laptop and run it with the same authorization and no interface
Is that right?? Missed the press conference.
Also, any word on whether HEAT will be included in the upgrade to PTHD 9 software??

Yes. But you can install the HD software on your laptop as well with nothing plugged into it. Awesome.
Also, for those of us with HD PCI / PCI-X core cards, we're still in business! Magma chassis or Windows 7 support, Pro Tools 9. Sweet. Thanks AVID, for not leaving us behind =)
