The same applies to session files from versions of Pro Tools earlier than v5.1.
If the audio files are Sound Designer II (SD2) format, you will need to find a system with Pro Tools 10 or earlier installed.
Pro Tools 12 can only open sessions where the audio files are in WAV or AIFF formats. The main one is to do with the audio file format. So, although Pro Tools 12 will open sessions from v5.1 upwards, there are some caveats to bear in mind. Dime Or Dozen?Įvery so often, when Avid release a major new version of Pro Tools, they drop support for the oldest session and audio file formats that the previous version could open. Fast forward 11 years, and what would happen when I opened this old session? In this article I am going to walk you through exactly what did happen, and cover the issues that can crop up when you try to get access to older Pro Tools sessions. At that time, Pro Tools sessions were PTF files, and I would have been using Pro Tools 7.3. Today, I needed to open a Pro Tools session I had recorded and mixed back in 2006. In practice, you may need to know a few tricks! In theory, old Pro Tools sessions should open in version 12.
