![]() and published as part of the Adobe Creative Cloud licensing program. or of the Windows install is old and crusty maybe take the opportunity to do a nice clean install and install Pro Tools Intro on that (and maybe keep the current running set up to to boot if you find you need it).24.1 (October 10, 2023 28 days ago ( )) Īdobe Premiere Pro is a timeline-based and non-linear video editing software application (NLE) developed by Adobe Inc. Personally if I kew I did not want the saved projects, I'd bounce them to disk to keep as as a reference, and then uninstall First before installing Pro Tools Intro. At some point you might want to uninstall Pro Tools First just so you don't accidentally get into any mess with plugins (accidentally starting up First it might vomit about some of the plugins installed, etc.). and the projects should not be removed from disk, so you could always go back and try to recover them (and who knows maybe they show up in Intro as local projects. If you don't need the old projects then at least make sure you bounce them to disk before upgrading so you have a reference of that old work. Have a back-up of course in case there is a disaster, but there is just no reason I could see to stay on such a bad product as First when Intro is an option. If you really don't need to transfer sessions then I'd not be to worried about moving to Intro, I'd just check the PC is compatible with Pro Tools Intro and go for it. Pro Tools Intro can use Cloud Projects so you might be able to transfer them through the cloud storage (but back up all your local project files first). Since IIRC Pro Tools First never supported Session formats you can't just save them and read into Pro Tools Intro. Projects and Sessions are different format beasts, even yes internally if they share some similar aspects. You want to get them out of being Project formats onto a real version of Pro Tools as Pro Tools *Sessions*. I would be thinking of those as toxic ticking time bombs. You likely have locally stored versions of cloud *Projects*. If you hit a problem many of us here are likely to be able to help you unlike with First, and there are improvements/bug fixes etc.īe careful with "locally stored". Starting with session support, and third party plugin support (not requiring the dead Avid store), unlike First it is the mainstream Pro Tools executable you are running so you get all the fixes everybody else gets. It actually has some important improvements and is a very nice beginner product. Its not the end of the world if I cant transfer my PT First projects. Intro does sound like it has a few new good features though. Intro and the rest of the current family is much better thought out and packaged and supportable by Avid with a single release/installer packaging. ![]() Pro Tools First was just awfully thought out dead-end crippleware sitting on top of unreliable buggy cloud storage, it never had any hope of succeeding. There are multiple videos online talking about ways to do this transfer). I would get as far away from unreliable cloud Projects onto proper local Sessions with Intro (not local cached cloud projects), but you might need to go via Cloud projects to get into Intro, or worse case export all your tracks out as audio. IIRC First never got the ability to save as a session. Much more importantly you need to work out how you transfer your stuff out of First into Pro Tools sessions. The track limits of Intro are clearly explained.Ĥ Aux Tracks (shares with Routing Folders)Ĥ Routing Folders (shares with Aux Tracks) Most paranoid case you could set up a dual-boot system.īut why do any of this? surely it’s not to work out what the track limits are. There are very few folks here who touch First. While I expect that it’s doable as long as the OS is supported you will have to test and see. ![]() But if you really needed to test I hope you should be able to move your current plugin folder, install Intro and run it then check if First works with those plugins or if not then you could manually swap the original Plugin folder back. This was always a PITA for running First on any computer with any other version of Pro Tools on it, especially First vomiting every time it saw third party plugins not purchased through the stupid Avid store. ![]() The programs are separate, assuming they are both supported by the OS, where you might run into problems is they share the same plugins folder. So you want help but we have to guess what computer and OS version you are running on? For Macs you will have challenges of finding macOS versions that support First and Intro.
