Re: Physical RAM is running Low error
Just to be clear, let's separate the problems. I get the memory message when I boot Pro Tools, but after I click through it, PT 12.7.1 is totally rocking. No serious problems at all, PT uses all the memory I give it. Avid just needs to get rid of the warning message.

They advertised it as compatible with each other, if it is not then they owe me for false advertisement/non-working product. And yes I have everything documented and would gladly start a lawsuit because I've spent thousands of dollars and never had a stable session with these products together. Running play alone has this memory issue and cpu crashing. I'm always updating them and trying different things, but they've never worked well together. However, I paid for multiple support codes with AVID where they assured me that these are compatible and refused to do anything to help me situation. First they claimed it was my hardware ( so I bought expensive hardware) - didn't fix the issue. I got all SSDs and changed everything up. Every time they close my case before they fix anything and give a long list of usual suspects to do, all with no effect.

Also, this is pointing to a major issue that PT DAW is refusing to access all for the RAM available. So even if the message disappears the root cause of hte problem is still there. This is a major programming problem, unless someone can tell me what I've overlooked? BTY, have changed and fiddled with PLAY's settings and I still have the problem no matter which buffers I use.

Here are screen shots of my Mac Pro tower with PT 11.3.2 running with no session..., followed with PT11.3.2 and the PT11 demo loaded. Says I have 27 GB of mem available. Your screen shot shows protools is using 8GB, mine shows about 1GB. Can you describe how many tracks you have loaded?

Re: Physical RAM is running Low error
Hello. I have exactly the same problem. My machine is not as strong as yours but i have 9gb of free memory an Pro Tools momory indicator goes to 100 and gives me a "not enough memory space" message. I also run the Play Plugin (a piano...). The same things has no problems on Logic and Ableton Live (i tried there 10 times the plugin and no problems at all.). But Pro Tools seems to be unable to handle it.
Is there more information about this issue at this point of time??? I am new to Pro Tools and did not expect this kind of Problems. Greetings Roman |

Re: Physical RAM is running Low error
I am having this issue as well. I have 64GB of RAM in a six core MacPro and get memory errors - it's telling me my memory is at 100% yet when I look at my system meters it's telling me I have over 32GB free. This never happened to me on 2018.12 only when I moved up to 2019.5 (HD, ultimate). What is the point of having a lot of RAM if ProTools doesn't know how to use it properly?
I gave ProTools 25GB to use before it resorts to Disk Cache but it would appear that PT immediately hoards the 25GB then complains it's out of memory. I literally have ONE inst track with ONE instance of Serum on it, ONE aux with ONE ModDelay and ONE master with an EQ7 on it. NO WAY that should require the 25GB of RAM that ProTools is hoarding. I submitted a help request with Avid - who wants to place a bet if they'll ask me to delete preferences and databases with no result, as usual. Gives me flashbacks of calling the cable company when the internet is down, "have you tried rebooting?" |

Re: Physical RAM is running Low error
I know this is not a lot of help, but I have 64GB in a 6,1 Mac Pro with 2019.5. No problems. I'm allowing a 32GB cache. My guess is that a 3rd-party plug-in is having a memory leak. Good luck!

Re: Physical RAM is running Low error
Hi everyone!
I have same problem here. I upgraded from PT12.7.1 to Ultimate and started to have this issue. I´ve tried every way you guys mentioned but problem persist. First I Installed PT Ultimate 2020.12 on my OSX10.13.6 opened a mix session including video (dnx-hd). System usage shows 100% RAM. Same session running PT12.7.1 on OSX10.12.6 64% RAM usage. Later i´ve install PT Ultimate 2019.6 and RAM usage went down to 95% not showing warning but still very tight. I gess it is a cuestion of finding right convination of PT version and OS. I´ll try with an earlier version of PT (2018.7) today to see if i can reach the 64% i had with PT12.7.1. Anyway, any clue is very wellcome. |
