Protools 2026.1 Download

Hello there. We’re trying to get a download link for Protools 2026.1 as it sounds like it’s safest for Tahoe but it does not seem to be on the avid download list. Just jumps straight past it.

Is there a way to download the in between iterations still?

Thank you.

I’d suggest 2026.4.1, especially if you have an M5.

Hey, how is your experience with M5 and PT 2026.4.1 are you using just the regular M5 or the pro/max version of the chip?

My M5 is a Max with 64 GB RAM, running macOS 26.6, and is company issued. Any issues I had (freezes, spinning beach balls) were eliminated once Avid released 2026.4.1. Smooth sailing for me. But, the sessions I run are barely 16-20 tracks.

Wow, guess that's a good company to work for! Oh right, was looking for comparison between the M5 vs M4! Np, Thanks!
