I see two potential problems with this and other movements in the industry. First, Blue buying Summit. I feat that Blue will place Summit under much strain to build lower cost prosumer products, where Summit's strength has been in building High Quality top notch sounding products that can take a beating.I've seen TLA-100a in the vocal chains of Sting and Bonnie Raitt. That;s quite the endorsement. Having moved to PT HDX, I've lost my most coveted reverb Plug-in from TC, the VSS 3. As it only runs TDM I can no longer use it. I have Sonnox, Altiverb, Revibe, Reverb One, Waves convos, etc. But NOTHING stands up to the wonderful tails of my TC. I noticed a recent release of a loudness conformity plug in from TC in AAX, but they have a myriad of plugs that deserve to be ported to AAX. And TC has proved they can do it! Why would TC abandon the undisputed king of DAWs by not making these High Level plugs in AAX or AAX-DSP? PT 11 will abandon RTAS altogether, then what? The biggest endorser of AAX and esp AAX-DSP has been Softube. I bought the Studio Collection as RTAS and within a month, AAX-DSP downloads were available for FREE. Waves is doing a survey if how many HD users will move to HDX. By the time their survey is complete, smaller more agile companies will have left Waves playing catch up! I'd be working 24/7 to climb on board to retain my title ship belt. So Big Plug in manufacturers take note. As Dylan said, And those who have lost will be later to win. Cause The Times they are a changing. It just makes no sense to me.
