Pro tools SE h/w buffer size
Brand new to home recording.
Recently purchased Avid home studio with pro tools se. Installed well, loads right up. When I go to record the bar stops and an error message appears saying something or another can't keep up because my computer is fragmented or i need to increase the h/w buffer speed (or decrees the DAE?). I just bought the computer (Toshiba 4g memory, 500g disk w/windows 7). So... how do I increase or decrees those things? O- Also... when I plug my guitar into the home studio- pro tools doesn’t recognize that I’m playing anything. Please help before I punch my computer. |

Re: Pro tools SE h/w buffer size
I've been watching those videos like a madman- I might have figured out the guitar problem... i need to change the input on the track. If anyone else needs help with that issue http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_0Z3...=14&playnext=2 watch that video. If that dosnt work, go to youtube and type in Pro Tools SE- Recording and Audio track- that will show you how to mess around with that.
I still really need help with the... buffer thing. Thanks. |

Re: Pro tools SE h/w buffer size
I too just started recording and am having a similar problem with the H/W Buffer size. My computer overall runs noticeably slower when Pro Tools is running in the background. I've tried everything in the knowledgebase to no avail.

Re: Pro tools SE h/w buffer size
Hi Punchkin,
Is your Preference set to "Recording"? Do you have another drive (external or internal) you can try recording to? |

Re: Pro tools SE h/w buffer size
Setting Preferences > Audio to "Mixing or Producing" even when recording may help with this issue.

Re: Pro tools SE h/w buffer size
I got the same Buffer Size Problem.
As i saw on youtube Pro Tools LE is the complete software and SE just kind of a demo program. So we can't access the real control of Buffer Size (128, 256, 512...), just set "Recording" or "Mixing". I just had put it on Recording but the error still appears, the same as Error 720. Can anyone tell us if we just need a Powered USB HUB or anything else? We just can't work with this crashing all the time... |
