In today's video we are testing the Compatibility between Mac's Newest OSX 10.15 Catalina and Pro Tools 2019.5. #OSXCatalina #ProTools2019 #CompatibilityTest.
If you're using one of these computers with OS X Mavericks or later, you can install macOS Catalina. Your Mac also needs at least 4GB of memory and 12.5GB of available storage space, or up to 18.5GB of storage space when upgrading from OS X Yosemite or earlier. Learn how to upgrade to macOS Catalina.
This means you will need a late 2015 iMac 27-inch or newer, 2016 MacBook Pro or newer, 2018 Mac Mini, 2019 Mac Pro, 2018 MacBook Air, or an early 2016 MacBook or newer model computer. A lot of QuickTime components in pro tools are 32-bit and haven’t been updated so they aren’t compatible with Catalina. It’s a crying shame really, it’s been over a year since Catalina (including the betas) was available to developers but Avid have done fuckall about it. Hello, I'm owner of LXP Native Reverb Bundle since 2017, using it with MAC Mojave and then upgraded to Mac Catilina since 2020 January. All worked fine until last week, when Pro Tools (2019.15) didn't accept the plug-ins no more as they stopped to work on my sessions. What Will And Won’t Work In Pro Tools 2019.12 With macOS Catalina. As we explained in our article Getting Ready For macOS Catalina - Rooting Out All Your 32 Bit Applications even though Pro Tools is a 64-bit application, there were still a number of 32-bit components including software that handles import, export, and playback of certain file types, such as QuickTime MOV files.

Pro Tools 2019.12 has been released with support for macOS Catalina. This latest update allows users to start the process of transitioning to the latest macOS. However, there are limitations and restrictions with this initial Pro Tools release you should be aware of before upgrading.
Since Apple released their latest Operating System, macOS Catalina (10.15.1), there has been a scramble to re-develop and adapt the Pro Tools software to be compatible. Avid has just released the latest version of Pro Tools with support for macOS Catalina, Pro Tools 2019.12. While this is great news for people using Catalina, there are some restriction on this latest release that need to be considered before upgrading.
While most audio related features are available, there is no support yet for import/export of MOV, MP4, M4A, or AAC files. Basically, if you're working with video, you will not have support for importing video files into Pro Tools 2019.12 Furthermore, if you are working with audio files in AAC or M4A, you will have to convert these files for WAV or AAF in order to use them. Check out the info below for a full list of supported files and functionality.
SUPPORTED FUNCTIONALITY
Audio Record, Playback, and Mixing
AVID Plug-ins (check with 3rd party manufacturer for specific Catalina support)
WAV / AIFF / MP3 - Import / Export

MXF (OP-Atom) Video Import
AAF / OMF - Import / Export
NOT SUPPORTED

We encourage everyone to be careful when deciding to upgrade. Make sure to check with any 3rd parts plug-in companies to make sure they too support macOS Catalina. If you're not having any issues with your current version of Pro Tools, you might want to consider waiting to upgrade until Avid has resolved all issues with the Pro Tools software. This is what we intend on doing.
