    Hi All

    I have been trying for days to find a place in Ireland / Europe that will sell an academic version of Protools 9. The Student version is €250 - provided you can provide proof of registration to a college / educational institution.

    Our student brethern in the USA can easily avail of this 50% discount from Avid. I ordered it already from studica (an online shop) but was told via email a day later that they only deliver to US addresses. Even though their website has dropdowns for any country you like!.

    I can see that it is available on sweetwater also - but fear the same outcome. Has anyone obtained a student copy (identical to the regular copy btw) of PT8 or PT9 - and if so - Where ?!

    thanks!

    Try Dolphin maybe?

    They delivered my guitar here no bother.

    Hi,

    Our students here at Poppyhill have had no problem getting student discounts from Studica.com Ask your college representative to email confirmation that you are a registered student. Also go to the Studica Euro website rather than the US site
    Hope you get sorted!

    Dolphin don't deliver to Ireland anymore. I've bought a lot of gear from them in the past & always found them to be excellent... but I tried to order PT9 (cross grade from LE) last week. Their sales manager came back & said they'd be taken over by another company & were focusing only on the UK market for now. A real shame. He said they hope to expand beyond the UK in the future, but not sure when.

    big bear also do student editions but you'll need a student card. also if you're a student at a digi school you get 40% on your first avid/digi purchase with them (on all products).

    Studica.com - ProTools 9

    These guys are the best store IMO for student discounts.
