Is there anyway...

Re: is 9.x going to still get some attention

I worked for Digi/Avid way back when Peter and Evan were at the helm. I've been a PT user since PT4.

It's obscene what Avid is calling a release and making us pay.
A new release with a bunch of...

Re: Looking to Upgrade PTHD 3 PCIx version Power PC

You will either need to upgrade the cards or get an expansion chassis.

There is a Magma 4 Slot chassis that will work with your...

Re: Let me get this straight..

$350 for what?
They haven't fixed the bugs in the 8.1 release.
They want me to pay for bug fixes at an even higher price than the other buggy software I already bought.

I think I'll hang on to...

Re: Pro Tools 9!

They never fixed the bugs in the last releases. So am I supposed to pay for a new release just to get crash problems fixed?

Re: This is AWESOME | $290 4 Slot PCIe to PCI Expansion Chassis

My solution cost was about twice that.
I bought the Magma 4 slot for $300 and am now waiting for the PCIe host card.
I used my existing G5 to check out the chassis.

My solution of $600 was a lot...

RE: **13 node cable** How big can a PT5.1 TDM go?

It has to do with the number of TDM Slots available *AND* how many cards you can drive on the bus.

So one limitation is time slots, you only have 250.
The other is the ability to drive the cable...

Re: Command 8 & Digital Performer?

Command|8 lets you use it in a generic mode.
Can't you assign controllers in DP for functions???

I think you can do it; just not a plug and go solution.
You must configure the Command|8 and DP>

Re: MacBook Pro

Hi,

Given the same drive SATA (1500MHz) is no faster than ATA133.
1500 MHz Clock
x 1 bit/clock
x 80% for 8b/10b encoding
/ 8 bits/byte
= 150 Mbytes/sec

Parallel ATA 133

Re: The exchange-to-PCIe pricelist is up now.

It's a rip.
First the Digi specific chips on the Accel and HD are the TDM II chips.
The development ROI was paid a while ago.

Re: Digidesign Hardware Problem after Tiger Instal

Reinstall PT.
Upgrading the OS will remove files that PT needs in the "system" folder.

Re: Anybody using Unitor with Pro Tools HD 7?

Hi,

I'm using a Unitor with PT7.
I used it under 6.9.

I'm not seeing any problems.
I have it connected to the rear of the G5 through a hub.

Re: Waves keeps giving

Waves users tolerate WUP.
We don't like it.

If you don't upgrade to Version X, Version Y is still the same cost....

Re: Waves LT plugs (?)

Big minus is that the *-L versions don't run on TDM hardware but on the host.
