Default Displaying input/preamp is slow

We're using remote preamps (both Avid PRE as well as Focusrite RedNet) which is working fine when controlling from the Preamp Track View within Pro Tools.

When displaying the Input/Remote Mic Preamp button on the Process Module on all tracks we're seeing a noticeable delay populating the values of the knobs. Typically the first track is almost instant but then a delay for several seconds before the other tracks light up. Once populated switching to Inuput is instant going forward so it seems like the values are cached.

I remember seeing something about this maybe getting fixed with the plugin parameter caching in 2019.5 but I'm still seeing the issue in the new version.

Are there any preferences for this that I'm missing?

Please try the preference Settings > User > Knobs: Pre-Load All Knobs On Session Load. This option should help with displaying function views on knob modules, especially when doing so all at once with the All switch enabled.

Yes, I've turned that feature on but I don't see any changes to performance at all. There is still a noticeable delay when switching to Input.

I've tried both directly after creating the tracks and after closing and re-opening the session (if the "on load" would help) but see the same behaviour both times.

Thanks. I’ll make sure this is logged with QA.

It's the same for me. I have another thread about it here: http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=400652

Since the 19.5 update, the Insert, EQ, and Dyn functions all come up instantly now. But Input is still slow.

I just installed the latest version (version 19.9.1) on our S6 M10 and I'm still seeing the same behavior - when switching to Input the loading of parameters from our Avid PREs take several seconds to show up on the surface.

We have "Pre-Load All Knobs On Session Load" active but it makes no difference.

I believe this is known and logged but I will double check. Thanks.
