Re: Ultimate 2019.10 on a mid-2010 MacPro yet?

Thanks for your suggestions!

Adventurous as I am I have installed PT Ultimate 2019.10 on my mid-2010 MacPro HDX-machine (OS 10.13.6) and it works like a charm. :D When having a session open with...

Re: Ultimate 2019.10 on a mid-2010 MacPro yet?

Thanks for chiming in! :D And yes, I will do exactly this. No fear! :D

You just have to ask yourself: What are the dudes and dudettes at Avid thinking when "working" for their HDX customers?

Re: Ultimate 2019.10 on a mid-2010 MacPro yet?

I have bought the so called "mid-2010" (the year marks the construction and patent date) XEON-model brandnew in 2015.

Using two HDX-Cards the "trashcan"-MacPro-Model was no alternative, since it...

Ultimate 2019.10 on a mid-2010 MacPro yet?

While noticing with joy the Dot10 Update of Protools, I realized, while browsing the supported computers list, that Avid scratched support for Mid-2010 Xeon-Processor MacPros for paying the yearly...

Re: Avid DUC not secure?

Don't panic. It is, as you said, because duc.avid.com does not use the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (https).

You do not enter credit card details here in the forum, isn't it?

Re: Gui lag 12.8.2

I use the standard-graphics-card which came with my mid-2010 MacPro, which is a Ati Radeon HD5770 1GB being run on a dual-monitor configuration at 1920 x 1200 each.

Also today, after extensive...

Re: Gui lag 12.8.2

I can report no problems with PT 12.8.2 HD using OS Sierra 10.12.6 on a mid-2010 MacPro.

No GUI lag at all (which I think is more related to older OS-versions like ElCrap especially).

Re: Error: " invalid utf-8 sequence encountered while trying to encode utf-32"

Looks like you have a invalid character somewhere in your file- or directory-names.

Re: Pro Tools 12 hangs on "initializing database" when loading

I have unfortunately the same issue going on since the 12.8 Update.

For minutes I see only the PT-Logo, which takes forever.

After closing and reopening PT without restarting the computer all...

Re: 12.6.1 Core Audio Audible Drop Outs macOS Sierra

I also can report "issue solved", but I had to fight the fight alone. LOL

It turns out that the unbearable latency problem using the new Core Audio Manager with HDX, Sierra and Logic Pro X had to...

Re: 12.6.1 Core Audio Audible Drop Outs macOS Sierra

After being first very enthusiastic about the new core audio driver functionality, I found out over some days of working with it -using Logix Pro X 10.4.2 and HDX with an Avid 16/16 digital I/O- that...

Re: Should we install 12.6.1?

No. I simply installed 12.6.1 over the existing version. However I did use the uninstall-(old)-HD-driver application first, which comes with the installation package. After that installing 12.6.1 and...

Re: Import SD2 files

In case you are on a Mac and have Logic Pro X installed: you can use the import audio function in Logic Pro X for SDII-files (funny enough!!!) and convert them to i.e. WAV. You can also do batch...

Re: PT 12.6 HD working like a champ on Sierra plus another observation about CPU

12.6 on Mac OS Sierra finally got rid of the GUI lag, a huge relief that the metering works again after probably a year of ElCrapped mixing only by ear. LOL

However I do not understand that Core...

Re: No video lag with PTHD 12.5.2 on macOS Sierra

Today I thought I go from El Crap back to Yosemite, since the GUI-lag (metering delay above 1 sec.) became unbearable with PT HD 12.5.2 in a bigger session, so basically I had to mix by ear only and...

Re: Mac Pro Westmere Mid 2010

Makes not too much sense in terms of performance, since the 2010 Mac Pro comes only with SATA2. That means that you lose half of the possible performance of a SATA3 SSD because of data-bus...
