Protools desperately needs some sort of open beta system!
Each PT release since a few years (starting around PT 11) there are nasty bugs found within a single day which takes a few months to get fixed in a new release, which in turn introduces new bugs or even brings back old bugs. We carefully have to decide which bugs we prefer the most.
Currently we are running PT version 2019.6 because every single release after it has some critical bugs rendering it too much of a risk to be rolled out facility wide. Some of these bugs are over a year old. As of today about half (!) of all my bug reports are still open and some even a few years old. I doubt these will be fixed at all.
I am not asking for all bugs to be fixed at once, I am asking to have the software be tested and have the bugs fixed before a new version is released. There are plenty of bugs found by users within the first week of use. Heck, even within the first day. I know some big Hollywood facilities are beta testing (closed beta), but clearly this is not good enough.
Yes I am ranting, because I just installed 2020.9.1 and noticed a critical bug which has been around since 2019.10 it still not fixed. (see http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=407233 ) forcing me to roll back to 2019.6 yet again.
