PT is set to 1 processor. I'm not hearing any clicks & pops while recording & playing back midi, but I do hear some when converting midi to audio. Have to switch H/W buffer to 1024 to get rid of it. Is this 'normal'? Is there another setting I should look at?
Another thot I'm considering is installing PT9 on my slave computer & using my NI Kore as an audio/midi interface. I could create all my midi arrangements in that format, bounce down audio & bring into PT 8 for further recording & mixdown. Anyone have experience doing that?
I have the same computer as you do and I have it set to 15 cores when I don't use VEPRO and 9 cores when I use it. (if it is a dual 8 core machine? you have) I don't have any pops and clicks. I have 256 pt samples dly and I've set the PT buffer to large. It works like a charm.
