Re: CPU spike- Catalina / 2020.5

From my perspective, being newer to Pro Tools, it's been refreshing having a different plugin format - very quick to install, and I KNOW they will always go to the one and only true installation...

Re: ProTools Control App meters lagging on Android

Thanks for the feedback... the workstation has plenty of power, it's HDX2 and i9 18-core, and I'm just testing it with a one track project with a sample repeating on loop. I've noticed that, if...

Re: ProTools Control App meters lagging on Android

@EddieJones - I am curious, in your setups, are the meters on the Control app ever EXACTLY in sync with the computer display's meters in Pro Tools?

I have an iPad Air 2 running the Control app for...

Re: CPU spike- Catalina / 2020.5

Hey, thanks for responding... guess I misinterpreted some of the previous discussion, no worries. Yes, I had seen those also.

Anyway, I couldn't let it go on mine, and after a couple dozen more...

Re: CPU spike- Catalina / 2020.5

I've already had one interesting finding - using OCCT to test, which I usually don't use for stress testing as Cinebench and Prime95 usually will find unstable overclocks much more often - it seems...

Re: Pro Tools 12.6 Overload

Guilla - this thread was one of many I combed through. I think I found a solution, see my message in this other thread. I realize this thread is old, but in case you're still out there, thought it...

Re: CPU spike- Catalina / 2020.5

DMitch - I read this thread as part of my research into this issue. I have an 18-core i9 build with 128 GB of RAM, quad-SSD Raid 0, 1080TI, and on HDX. Yet with just a few HDX plugins, I noticed...

Re: Suggestions on which order interfaces should be connected

Nice... yeah, I don't think I could blindly pick out which of my converters is which. Although, sometimes I do swear when I listen to music through the Hilo, I hear some detail I didn't really...

Re: Suggestions on which order interfaces should be connected

Thanks for sharing your setup! Curious, do you notice a difference between your Hilo and your HDIO (or your Red4), in the input or output AD/DA? I haven't gotten around to setting mine up so I can...

Re: is HP Z4 tower really limited to 2 HDX cards?

I went with the Be Quiet tower case... at low fan RPMs, it does seem almost silent... not too bad at maximum either.

I stuffed the two HDX cards in there - unfortunately, the video card is...

Re: is HP Z4 tower really limited to 2 HDX cards?

Anyway - I tried to build my own Xeon, but it proved difficult to get a Xeon motherboard on short notice, and same with the Xeon CPU... doable but would have waited weeks. Plus the price was higher...

Re: is HP Z4 tower really limited to 2 HDX cards?

Anyway, as to my computer - I didn't really like HP's waiting time (3-4 weeks when I looked), nor the Apple-like pricing for RAM/HD upgrades... not that I can't put my own in, but I realized they...

Re: is HP Z4 tower really limited to 2 HDX cards?

Anyway, thank you for answering! In the time since, I've acquired two HDX cards, since I figured that way I can have the MADI and the HDIO (I didn't really feel comfortable having only the MADI to...

Re: is HP Z4 tower really limited to 2 HDX cards?

Suggestions on which order interfaces should be connected

Hello, I wanted some ideas on which might work out better -

2 HDX cards

1 HD MADI

1 HDIO 16x16

1 Lynx HILO

Housing HDX cards in PC tower vs TB3 chassis/enclosure

Hello - I started another thread about whether the HP Z4 can truly only support two HDX cards (like Avid says), or not. (I am thinking they are being cautious, and also leaving room for more video...

is HP Z4 tower really limited to 2 HDX cards?

Was thinking of getting an HP Z station, used or new, to save some time... I realize building my own will save a good bit, but if financed, the time savings might be worth it.

Re: Trouble deciding on ideal Pro Tools setup - non-HD, HD Native, HDX, etc.

Re: Trouble deciding on ideal Pro Tools setup - non-HD, HD Native, HDX, etc.

So THEN the other option is, of course, just get a third party conversion that is perhaps less expensive than the MTRX Studio, and hopefully one that matches the converter latencies (like Lynx does)....

Re: Trouble deciding on ideal Pro Tools setup - non-HD, HD Native, HDX, etc.

The only caveat there is the StudioLives run at 44.1 or 48 kHz only - I know the grey digital IOs will do Sample Rate Conversion on the digital ins right in the box, which was another nice find. I...
