Though not advised I'm sure, can this still technically in theory be done?

So, using an M1 system, I want to make it super super clear that I am not suggesting for one second that anyone do this on their primary machine, in fact, I wouldn't even do it on my main production workstation, but just out of curiosity, I know Protools definitely hasn't yet been certified to work with Ventura. In fact, Ventura OS13 isn't even out yet. It's still public beta, hince why I'd never do this on my main machine, but if you have a backup to play with that if things break, isn't a big deal, I'm wondering if you technically speaking could get P'T to run fairly decently on that setup. I know some plugins certainly may not work correctly, but I'm speaking more just PT in and of itself, 3rd party plugins not withstanding.

NOt asking for much detail here, but more just a general, yes in theory it would, or no, absolutely 100 percent no no no no, don't even attempt, even on a test environment.

Chris.

Thank you. That's exactly the answer I was looking for, just a one worded yes or no. Enough said. Consider this top it closed. I very much appreciate the help. From someone who is at least tried.

As long as you're in a test environment, like a separate boot drive etc, I see no harm in trying PT or any other software to see how it does. Just don't have any expectations going in :)

Hi, I always like to do tests like this to see how well things work as
just because it is not officially supported does not mean that you can
not at least get something done on it.  The issue is if you find a bug
with Pro Tools on an unofficially supported mac operating system how do
you go about reporting the bug so it can at least be known?  Nick Gawronski

When there's a problem with Pro Tools on an unsupported OS, it's not considered a bug. There are a couple of hundred beta testers who test future versions of Pro Tools with those future operating systems. Beta versions of PT might work fine with an unreleased OS while the release version might not. The beta team puts PT through its paces in ways that you'd never imagine yet, sometimes, bugs do appear in releases, in fact, hundreds of them. It's a never-ending process of crushing them.
