Sluggish workstation performance

I'm trying out the control app on my wife's old iPad 2 and PT 11.3.1 on MBP retina.
I know that's not supported and it's a bummer that I don't get meters.


I'm noticing that Pro Tools, and my...

Personally I LOVE the retina...

Re: Real basic Q about 10.3.9 automation

Hmm. They shouldn't need anything else as long as you are ok with drawing the automation in with the edit tools and the mouse.

Interesting. I'm still playing with this too, as it's tough to tell which plugin is being problematic, and which are just adding a little CPU usage each, without causing spikes.
