Default Protools 12 HD very slow response about Edit Window

HELLO.

I'm using Protools HD 12.4 & 12.5.

but it's too slow operate about region moving & paste & making fade & automation curve writing.

I tried to test some OS (10.9.5 & 10.10.5 test) & versions (12.4 & 12.5).
but it's same problem.

The problem happens when I appear plugin list with many plugin.
Organize Plug-In Menus by "Categorie & Manufacturer" is too slow.
bit "Flat" is no problem (works fine)

I tried beam sync off & disable spotlight. but same problem.

Protools HD10 is ok with same machine & setting.

Let me know solve this problem....

Default Re: Protools 12 HD very slow response about Edit Window

I have the same problem,I have tried from Montanin Lion to el Capitan the same problem.I suspect this may be a problem of graphic card because if you do hide the track and leave one or two tracks this bug does not occur,or if hide the insert,send,instrument from edit window again this bug does not occur.

I have an mid 2010 mac pro
2 x 2,4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
32 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC
ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB

I will soon try some graphic cards and whether the problem is resolved will write to you directly.
And please excuse me for my bad english

I tried to install another graphic card with AMD R9 280X 3GB.

http://www.pro-tools-expert.com/home...-in-my-mac-pro

However, It can not be solved problem.
(basic OS speed & performance is faster than before, but protools GUI is very slow yet.) I thought that this problem has nothing to do with graphic performance.

I reported this problem in avid & get answer "investigate as Formal escalation with this case"

I thought that it's bug since 64bit format Protools 11 with many plug-ins installing case.

By the way I test to install default + waves complete + UAD-2 only with clean install Yosemite. But it's same here.

Threfore I'll wait for answer avid's reply.

I have the exact same problem, and actually had to slow down my editing to adapt to the lag in PT. Pro Tools 10 flew without any lag, but from PT 11 and on, there was definitely a lag I noticed right away in editing and the overall responsiveness.

Any fixes yet?

I tried switching out video cards, ran different operating systems, but no dice.

not yet with new PT12.5.2.... (best performance with PT12.4. but slow anyway)

How many plugins do you install?

But you can solve if you reduce plugins. (only avid)

I have quite a bit of plugins installed.. roughly 90. I just tried placing all of my plugins in the unused folder and restarted PT... still slow. Doesn't affect the performance at all.

I have the same problem. It's EXTREMELY frustrating.

Tried:
1. All optimizations.
2. Different harddrives (and optimizing them)
3. I have no floppy.
4. Messing with disk cache.

It doesn't seem to be a graphics problems since _everything_ in PT freezes for 3-5 second if do a cut/fade/slide the region.

The only thing that solves it is when I consolidate all the cuts. And that isn't really an option.

Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Intel I7 3,4 ghz
16gig ram

PT12 has been all problems for me since I bought it.

I have the same issues. I did everything as listed by avid. CPU is under 40% and memory only 10%. I tried removing unsupported plugins (Native Instruments/Audio Ease Altiverb) from pro tools plugins folder with no luck.
