Re: Pro Tools Bugs out the Kazoo
No, I mean literally a box (with the computer "inside"). Like RADAR. Just connect it to a monitor/mouse/keyboard but it's Pro Tools and automatically updates itself via online with features/enhancements etc. provided only by Digidesign.

Re: Pro Tools Bugs out the Kazoo
LOL... Gotta love beating a dead horse.
Here is the deal Facher. If you're here to complain about a bug with PT8, thats top notch. Its only right we bring this stuff to Digi's attention. When you post something like this: Quote:
Now when you post something like this: Quote:
Post the Score Editor bug on its own thread with proper title. Lets see if Digi can reproduce it. Then maybe add it to the list. Maybe it got taken care of in the new cs3 update. See if installing that helps you issue.

I do think it would be kewl if Digi made a computer that was set up for ProTools. I'm sure lots of the HD guys would have no intrest, but us consumer end users would be stoked about something like that. It would be great if you could scrap even running on OS and just have it boot up ProTools. But then again, I don't know anything about software programing so maybe its harder then it sounds. Im sure Digi has their hands full with lots of other stuff though. But we can always wish, right?

Re: Pro Tools Bugs out the Kazoo
I've had the issues you described in every build of Win7 past build 7000. Very strange. Back on XP now, see how it holds up.
I used to have to trash my prefs before every start of the program or it would get stuck on the last plug in each time

Re: Pro Tools Bugs out the Kazoo
fascher - I'm not sure if you're trying to get help or just air out your grievances, but if you do want help, you should follow the instructions given by TOM@METRO on the first page of this thread.
I'm not sure why jojo99 seems to think that a Sandra report isn't necessary, but I can assure you it is - along with an installed plug-in version list and everything else that we ask for in the Help Us Help You thread. Obviously there is a configuration issue with your system, as the problems and crashes you're describing are not in any way 'normal' behavior for Pro Tools. Once we have all the necessary info we can look at things you could do to stabilize your system. |

Re: Pro Tools Bugs out the Kazoo
Well, ok. I'm just saying I personally won't install that app. There's just no need. I just know how to manage systems. Incorrect reporting, versions galore, enough to cause issues, iffy benchmarking results abound. I repair systems and I've never needed a sandra report to do so. Whether it's tech help via email or having the sys in-shop.
But,maybe it is useful for you. Gotta be honest though, it's few and far between when I've seen a resolve on msg board via a "sandra report" The majority of tech posts I've checked out here, nothing was really resolved via the sandra report...it usually fell off the radar, or was resolved by the user another route (mainly how it usually is resolved, right? - other users experiences and suggestions). it looked like the sandra report demands were moreso causing a lot of time wasted (teaching the user to find,download, run, enter the data..blah-blah) rather than being a quick path to relief. Usually it being user error, OS setup issue, hardware incompat, or OS feature incompat (adding now: PT8 with IE8) - few of which sandra will report anyways. I also know the history of PT with windows, and the chances of many of the errors people are seeing are likely stemming from what has been rather consistent - growing pains with each new incarnation of PT (coding). Which again, like other companies, is something digi tries it's best to alleviate in cs/patches. But, who knows? Maybe a report will resolve this one. Digitech, I wonder if you could enlighten myself and all the users here on digi's testing scenarios. Is there a full test team in place? if so, on what scale does it operate would you say? |

Digidesign has been touted as only really being interested in selling hardware, right? This is hardware. It could also be optimized from factory. It doesn't have to be expensive—it justs need to be bullet-proof. Once a system like this was rolled-out imagine the resources that Digi could free up! and consumers could work in confidence. Is this not a win-win?

If they let you get to it, so you could install Reason or izotope RX or something else, all of a sudden you lose the absolute stability guarantee and you're just running on what was qualified hardware. This would defeat the purpose, non? But otoh in most cases you need ad-hoc software integration in practice, so you would want to be able to install 3rd party stuff directly onto the OS and use OS-level file management etc. I don't think it works. I think having a bunch of qualified machines listed on the website is as far as I'd go with that. The Mac situation is very healthy and of course I recommend Macs for pro audio. If you insist on using Windows yes you are going to have to be very good at debugging your configuration.

Everything seems to work OK now... other than a "skips" or "statics" when something visual happens on screen - or moving to a different window, etc... Yet, CPU load is at 8% max, and 80% free on RAM. Deleted all the plugins, DB prefs and folders off of all HD's except two (ones that aren't used much)... |

Re: Pro Tools Bugs out the Kazoo
facher, one thing...what motherboard do you have? People have asked here and you can't list this? Come on, like they're saying...help them help you at least. If you're really having issues after spending the $...I would think it a no brainer to list ALL the system part #'s and model/brand names of your hardware. Or if you don't know I guess there's where the sandra report would fit in (you should know though).
Which would then lead to this Q: Can you tell us what chipset (motherboard chipset) driver you installed (full name and vers.)? * The chipset drivers(s), if called for, is to be installed upon successful installation of your OS. |
