Re: Pro Tools never works (PT10 on Windows 8.1)
Quote:
I was looking at getting a Windows 7 license. I will try your suggestions first. Hopefully they will work. I actually looked at MacBooks last night only to realize they would still leave me in the same position as it isn't compatible with PT 10 either. I'm taking the class at the local junior college. So they probably don't have the money to update everything. And frankly, if it works, why would they? I really know all this basic stuff, but to take the advanced class, this is a prerequisite. I'm actually looking forward to spending some time with the midi composing tools in Cubase. That actually was the big attraction and I got a great deal because this store had gotten a bunch of these controller sets with Cubase 7 that Steinberg quit making. So it saved me $150. But you are right, Pro Tools is so much easier to work with, as long as it works. Thanks for all your help. :) |

Actually, don't jump on the PT12 upgrade just yet. I noticed a thread called "Avid is Denying My Eleven Plugin Promo (Upgraded from 8 to 12)" at: http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=372039 and I'm not sure if Avid changed the terms of the plugin promotion or if they're just making it up as they go along. I asked Avid specifically about the PT10 license so just hold off until they give us a definitive answer. BTW, if your PT10 is an academic license, then I'm pretty sure that it won't qualify for the promotion. So in that case there's no need to upgrade early. |

Re: Pro Tools 10.3.10 not working on Windows 8.1
Thanks for your help Seanbil.
I reloaded PT 10 as administrator in Windows 7 mode. Still no sound. I plugged in the Scarlett. PT won't recognize it. I then rememered what you said about ASIO4ALL and uninstalled it. Still didn't recognize the Scarlett. But it asked for hardware, I plugged in the mbox2, and it is all working again. And all through this, PT 11 worked fine. |

Yeah, I think I will pay extra to keep 10 at this point. Plus it sounds like I get to keep 11 also, since i know it works, I'd like to keep a stable version. :) But thanks for explaining that $99 upgrade thing. I couldn't figure out what the difference was. And it is $1 cheaper to do the two $99 upgrades which seemed to be the equivalent of the $199 upgrade. But it is worth the dollar to keep 10. |
