Precisely my point, though. Older sessions likely have older plug-ins that won't exist in the current user's plug-ins folder. In some cases, they're RTAS or TDM. No such plug-ins have been supported since Pro Tools 11. Audio and edits will work fine but, depending on the age of the sessions and which PT version was used, some things will absolutely not translate fully. Slau
