Re: How is Pro Tools 2018 behaving?
I'm running PT 2018.4 on a fully-patched iMac Pro OSX 10.13.4 - no HD hardware. Runs fine fwiw.

Re: How is Pro Tools 2018 behaving?
Same setups here and works awesome. No issues but we only use our two trashcans for audio nothing else.

Re: How is Pro Tools 2018 behaving?
Same here expect I use my trashcan for both audio and midi/virtual instruments. I must say I have had a few issues along the way but it was either a plugin issue or a Mac issue. Once I figured out what was causing the problems all has been good.

Re: How is Pro Tools 2018 behaving?
Also running great on my 2017 MBP. But I run relatively simple sessions and stick mostly with Avid plugins and Superior Drummer VI. For my own use It seems Pro Tools stability has improved over the last year or so, better than a few years back.

Re: How is Pro Tools 2018 behaving?
Interesting. Didn't think of that. Can you elaborate on how?

Re: How is Pro Tools 2018 behaving?
That’s key!! I always evaluate the performance of every new plugin, if I see it affects the stability than out it goes. I don’t rely on plugins to do the job, I mean, I can mix perfectly with stock plugins and a bunch of outboard reverbs and compressors, but I do know I need pro tools to run stable as a rock. And it delivers.

Re: How is Pro Tools 2018 behaving?
Run the new plug-in in every track type with other plug-ins you regularly use.
Watch the CPU monitor for usage and spikes. Note any errors that may appear. Notice general responsiveness of the GUI. Basically, be sure it plays nicely within the sessions that mimic your typical workflow. Do this with only one new plug-in at a time. I usually will know within the first hour if I will choose to retain or remove it. When you notice certain combinations causing issues, you will sometimes have to make tough choices or live with an unstable rig. There are times when just not using it in the session will be enough to solve the issue, other times it must be removed from the Plugins folder completely. Note: I have removed rather expensive plug-ins from the folder for the sake of a smooth running Pro Tools. I'm now much more cautious about what I allow in. And, constantly watch for updates. Old code can wreak havoc.

Intermittent lag when offline bouncing a midi track.
Also artifacts on sustaining instruments (wow and flutter) after changing the tempo +1 bpm using elastic audio (polyphonic).
