Re: Atmos playback from Apple Music

That is EXACTLY how I tried to configure using HDX and one of our HD I/O’s. The speaker test even works perfect. But everything is folded down to 5.1, using the side speakers instead of rears, and...

Re: Atmos playback from Apple Music

So, you’re saying that, in spite of labeling content as “Dolby Atmos”, Apple Music cannot play back an Atmos file on Apple’s newest Mac? Unbelievable.

Does anyone know of a workaround? Perhaps...

Atmos playback from Apple Music

I’m hoping someone has figured this out. We just installed a Mac Studio Ultra M2. I’m trying to play back Atmos releases from Apple Music using our HDX system in order to audition national releases...

Application Manager

Does Application Manager work for ANYONE? Why do they keep updating it, if they won't fix it? The troubleshooting guide mentions:

Old backup tapes

Does anyone have any idea how to read Mezzo backup tapes from 1999? I still have a working Sony AIT drive, but my G3 Macs that had Mezzo software on them failed many years ago. It looks like Mezzo...

Re: Problem with Avid Application Manager

For us, it's 2 Macbook Pros on HDNative Thunderbolt, and one Macpro with HDX. All running current versions. Application Manager NEVER finishes "initializing" on any of those. Maybe it's a conflict...

Re: Problem with Avid Application Manager

Application manager hangs on initialization 90% of the time. Same problem for years. The troubleshooting tips seem useless. How is this still an issue?

Re: Lexicon PCM Native Reverb v. 1.3.8

We can’t seem to even keep the Lexicon Native Reverb plug-ins in the plugin folder without getting crashes that take down the Mac. They sound great, but buggy as hell.

Where does audio reside?

I understand that the audio files are uploaded to the Avid server, but is the cache on my local system permanent, or does it need to "re-download" after every "close and open" cycle? What about...

Re: Sample Rate Question

The only reason, in my opinion, to record at a sample rate lower than 96k is if your hardware doesn't allow it. That could be for several reasons: 1) It just doesn't support higher rates ... or 2)...

Lexicon Native Reverb

We installed this bundle after picking it up on a sale. They sound great, but, within a few reboots they cause our HDX system to fail. The boot sequence gets just past the Lexicon bundle and then...

Re: HDX Latency

I've been able to "snap" the latency back by switching the buffer size in the Playback Engine. When the latency comes back (can happen any time) I just switch the buffer back. Overall I totally...

Re: Elastic Audio File problems

I'm not sure that it was "resolved", but I haven't had the error in the last few months...... Who knows, maybe they "fixed" the problem in an update and just didn't mention it.

Re: 12 Blue Cat Audio Plug-Ins (6 FREE) Available for Pro Tools 11 (64-bit AAX)

I just downloaded and installed the freeware bundle and PT says it is not authorized...... The older AAX plugs worked fine. Any thoughts?

Re: Simple pitch change plug?

I'm still hoping that with the transition to PT11, Avid will just code the old Pitch change TDM plug for AAX DSP. That won't help with the chorus stuff, but it's a start........

Re: PT11 HD Native with MacPro 3.1

Re: Simple pitch change plug?

The thing for me is the need for a low-latency plugin (AAX DSP) that can be used during tracking for pitch and/or modulation of pitch. Elastic Pitch is great but doesn't function that way. RTAS or...
