Re: Playback Engine or Playback Ancient ?
Since I use both my UA Apollo (my main I/O device) and my Line6 HX Stomp, I too have to switch, close the session and reopen.
I could just use a pair of audio cables out of HX Stomp into my pre's, but Line6 does a nice job of running audio via USB. levels are already set, and I usually have HX Edit (their editor) open to make patch changes on the fly. Also, things are very tidy. The HX is always connected to Mac via USB, one cable, not patch cables running everywhere. Yes, would be nice to change the I/O Engine, I mean, Playback Engine without rebooting the session. But, I will say after a length break (about 10 years) and formerly having an old mac with PT10, Now that I have my new Mac and PT200/21, I like now that I can play my music and video's without having to close PT to hear the audio! Nice touch!

Re: Playback Engine or Playback Ancient ?
Unless you're an orchestral composer with 30 GB of samples in RAM. I'm lucky if some of my sessions open in less then 3 minutes, never mind 3 seconds. And, yes, that's loading off of SSD.
