![]() ![]() I regularly develop a little too much anxiety than I'm going to fall way too far behind and thus must rush to catch up and make sure I'm current *enough.* In reality, what has at least spooked me away from embarking on an OS update for the time being is that I found this thread. As to your question, realistically, I probably don't need the updates. I had to but an external 1TB NVMe drive to get all this crap on here. Anyhow good luck with your endeavor, I'm still installing VI libraries. My PT Ultimate is still alive and well on a Win 10 i9/64Gb/18Tb PC so I haven't lost anything going to PT Studio 2022.7 on the MacBook as it's for MIDI/songwriting/remote recording and that works fine as it stands. Just because there are updates doesn't mean we need them, if your Blackmagic software does what you need then why update? If there are new features you need then by all means go for the update. I had just bought a perpetual Pro Tools Studio so I ended up going with macOS Catalina 10.15.7 because it's compatible with PT Studio 2022.7 and most of my VI libraries. I was doing two partitions, Mojave for PT Ultimate 2019.12 and Monterey for email, bills & such. I just updated my mid-2015 rMBP kinda/sorta. Short version - what do smarter people than myself suggest? Stick with the status quo and be happy or take a chance getting miserable over an OS update? I checked the release notes for 2022.7 and Avid still says the same thing pertaining to Big Sur/Monterey. This is particularly prevalent with older MacBook Pros" but it doesn't say what older even is. ![]() When I check the Avid page, it says about Big Sur: "Our testing has shown that certain configurations may result in a higher incidence of playback errors. Right now I am in-between projects so it's sort of now or not at all for another long time. For a variety of reasons, I don't really want to.because I'm paranoid of complications due to basically a lack of time. That said, my BlackMagic video equipment has a bunch of software updates and the minimum OS requires me to go to at least BigSur if I am to update. I currently run PT 2021.3 - I had a bit of a major hassle several months ago which was finally resolved by giving Avid more money but in the process, I had a tech support person tell me that even though it says on paper that I should be able to update, to just stick with 2021 as long as I'm on macOS Catalina. In 2021 I purchased two Macs: one for video, one for music, but due to workflow there is a little overlap.
