Default Avid HDX does not work with Studio One Pro 4 and 3.5.6

Hi.

I've been using Presonus Studio One 3 with my Avid HDX for a few years now and been really happy with the combination.

Until Studio One version 3.5.6, where HDX just wont work anymore. It is selectable in the list of possible audio interfaces, but selecting it yields only the message "The audio device Avid HDX could not be initialized. Please check your hardware configuration and try again."

No amount of retries work.

This bug is still present in the newly released Studio One 4.


Fortunately in Studio One version 3.5.5 Avid HDX works perfectly.


Presonus support is, to my knowledge, aware of this issue, both with version 3.5.6 and 4. They asked me to share this information here as well. I hope they come up with a fix soon.

This just to let you know, if there's other users with Studio One and HDX here.

Do try it yourself. I haven't tried it with for example a Native HDn interface. Please let me know if you have the same problem.

I have a late 2013 Mac Pro running OSX 10.9.5 Yosemite, Avid HDX via Thunderbolt Sonnet Echo Express III PCIe chassis.

Thanks.

Logic, Cubase, Live in their last versions respectively, work flawlessly with Studio One 4 in my Mac (latest Mac OS), I am not surprised though that Pro Tools doesn’t, you always have to adapt to AVID, they are NEVER ahead of anything yet you have to pay a nonsense subscription as if they were. What can I say ?

I mean the HDX card does not work with Studio One 3.5.6 upwards, but works great with Studio One 3.5.5 and older versions.

This is probably due to changes made in the Studio One audio engine in version 3.5.6. Every other audio interface that I've tested works slightly better with lower buffers, but Avid HDX stopped working completely. The card fails to initialize.

So this might not be the fault of Avid, but posting this information here could help other HDX and Studio One users. And if other users with the similar problem contact both Presonus and Avid, the problem might get fixed sooner.

Pro Tools HD 11.3.2. which I still use (but only if I must) works ok with my HDX card, no problem there. Every version of HD 12 I tried was a disaster. That's what drove me to Studio One in the first place. Haven't tried 2018 and probably won't, since Studio One (at least 3.5.5.) is working great and is rock solid. And has a ton of work flow improvements and features I could only dream of when I only had Pro Tools. I used Pro Tools for over 16 years, so I did not make the switch lightly. But I'm very glad I did.

Does anyone know how to get in contact with Avid support? I could not find anywhere any information how to contact Avid about this issue. For other issues like registration etc. there seems easy ways to contact support. Like I said, I don't think it's their fault or responsibility to fix, but if they could contact Presonus developers, the problem also might get fixed sooner.

The "Learn and Support" link on Avid's home page does not work for you?

Scroll down to the bottom of this page http://www.avid.com/pro-tools/learn-and-support.

If you do not have a support contract you normally purchase an ASC (Avid Support Code) to start the process. And submitting online is likely easier from overseas.

My version of Studio One V4 isn't connecting either.

Pro Tools HD Native/Omni HD/ Pro Tools 11.3.2

Logic 10.3 works fine.

Hope someone "upstairs" will read this

You really need to file a support ticket with both Avid and Presonus.

Good idea, I have contacted Persons (for free) Cant see any way of asking Avid without paying for it. Maybe I can be proved wrong

Did you get a reply from Avid regards this issue?

I've made Presonus aware are of this issue (Studio 4's non-compatibility with an Avid Omni using native Thunderbolt in my case)

It's something they might address but couldn't promise anything.
