Re: Anyone else think Pro Tools first is a bummer?
Waste of time! Followed install directions never could get it to run. Multiple error messages keeps it from launching and then eats system resources even when its not running. I uninstalled. Win 10 i7 16 gigs of ram.

Re: Anyone else think Pro Tools first is a bummer?
I agree also, had it on Windows 10 i5 16GB ram never got it stable always moaning or crashing or not even starting. I recently tried it on my OSX machine i5 16GB ram, complete waste of time, same thing moaning about everything and anything, "Pro Tools not responding can we send data to Avid"; be my guest!
I also use and like very much Logic Pro X and Ableton Live and they are grand for the electronic arts and have everything I need and more. I don't want to be spending my creativity or mixing time on forums or writing up stuff or service support tickets, give me a break ffs, so il stick with Logic and Ableton and completely disappointing with my introduction to Pro Tools First. I wont be upgrading! |

Re: Anyone else think Pro Tools first is a bummer?
Yeah, just getting it installed was a bummer. I haven't recorded anything in it yet, but I just heard that you can't record to the hard drive? is this true?
This sucks because one of the reasons I bought the Scarlet interface was that ProTools First came with it and now its seems like it was a waste of time and money. Too bad there aren't too many lawyer musicians out there...sounds like class action to me |

Re: Anyone else think Pro Tools first is a bummer?
People seems to forget that before pro tools first (which is not a big change in codes from the regular pro tools, just limitation codes added to it), there was a 30 day trial of pro tools. So really, there's not a huge difference and waste of time.

Try hold down 'N' when launching. Make sure you have an ASIO audio interface if you are on Windows.

Also you may want to try Asio4all drivers. they work very well.

Re: Anyone else think Pro Tools first is a bummer?
Yeah it's junk. Real buggy software, and poorly documented. It wants to send my recording projects to cloud and then delete them. I have to run it as "administrator" or it locks up.
When I switch interfaces I have to shut down and restart, and it doesn't want to let me use my computer speakers. Then when I want to convert a Pro Tools Project to MP3, I have to use something like Audacity. Why not just use Audacity for the whole thing? It's free. That's what I'm doing now. It's a lot easier to use anyway. |
