How is Protools 2018 behaving on the 2010 cheese grater Mac?
How is Protools 2018 behaving on the 2010 cheese grater Mac?
I wanted to buy one of the 12 core 3.46 units last year but waited.. So Are these still good with the new protools? Im on 12.8.3 on a 2012 MacBook pro right now, but would like an additional mac system..price for power looks good with these units, but are they reliable? I'll be running a black lion upgrade 002r and an 11 rack if that matters. Thanks! |

You can put unit from places like iPowerResale.com that will offer a 3 year warranty with their old stock units. For an additional $249 for extended warranty, you can get a inexpensive, but powerful machine with a 3 year life line. Re-group after 3 years to see if you're still happy.

Working very well on my 6-core. See signature for details.

Running very well here.
Totally stable with hundreds of tracks and plugins (including some VI's and bridged 32bit plugins). I'm also using multiple video files in each session. I don't think I've had a single crash with 2018.7. All details in my signature.

No issues here either. Same machine, HDN 2018.7. Solid, go for it.

Re: How is Protools 2018 behaving on the 2010 cheese grater Mac?
Thanks for the help guys! One more question.
I found an upgraded 2009, 12 core 3.46 should that work well? I thought I remember issues with the 2009, but maybe that was just the original processors? For now Im trying out 2018 alongside 12.8.3.. Thanks! |
