(Feature Request?) When bouncing, option to use file name as new "Recall Session"

See Thumbnails for Examples.

The upsides seem endless. No matter how disorganized you are, if you printed a bounce in Pro Tools, there is an exact .ptx of that bounce with the exact same name as...

12 core Mac Pro RAM UPGRADE: 64GB @ 1866MHz or 128GB @ 800MHz?

I've decided to upgrade my 6 core Trash Can to a E5-2697 v2 12-Core. Reading on the OWC website I found this fine print when looking at the RAM upgrades:

Upgrade 6 core Mac Pro to 12 core, or sell Mac Pro for 8 core iMac Pro?

In the next few months I’ll be upgrading my computer. I can’t afford a new Mac Pro, but a used 8 core iMac Pro would be doable. Right now they are around $3500 on eBay.

OWC offers a refurbished...

Re: Is there AAX compatible software comparable to Vienna Ensemble, to offload CPU us

Okay, I didn't think about that. How does it work in Pro Tools? Does Vienna Ensemble come in an AAX plugin? Or does use it ReWire? I'm having trouble finding anything online.

Running PT 12.6.1 on a late 2013 6 core MacPro w/ 32GB ram. Is CPU upgrade worth it?

I find myself using more and more virtual instruments and CPU hungry plugins. Pretty normal for my system to hover in the 80% CPU usage, and I'm getting somewhat regular CPU playback errors.
