Soooo, how's 10.2 treating everyone?

[DJ Hellfire]

Kinda scared to update my PC to 10.2. Ever since installing 10.0.2 I haven't had a single error and have been rocking steady at 64MB, recording and mixing.

Anyone having success with 10.2 (Mac or PC)?

Just make a backup of your system, so you can revert, should something go wrong.
From what I read here lately, the update to 10.2 has solved a whole lot of issues people were having, an the general reception is very positive.
Some people are saying, their issues haven't been fixed, but I haven't read of any new ones that were introduced with 10.2.

10.2 has fixed EVERY THING for me

This has been a stellar update

Thank you so much AVID!

10.2 HDX in Windows and OSX here. I would not go back.

Having said that... back up, back up, back up.

+1000 for backups. 10.2 for me feels almost the same as 10.1.2 on the same machine. No change in either direction. Overall, I can work fine as long as I exercise patience. Anytime I click to do something(like open a plugin or export a clip) I MUST wait for that function to finish before clicking onto the next thing. If I don't wait, its about 50/50 that I will have a freeze or a grey screen(which requires a force quit and a reboot). I'm gonna tough it out and hope for another update that maybe will solve that, and just slow down a bit.

So far my machine has become worse. CPU has increased and working with vision has noticebly more lag.
I'm wondering if I need to get Lion to get back some stability.

It's working beautifully over here on my Mac Pro 1,1 running OS 10.7.4.

Most importantly, they fixed the Clip Gain/Nudge bug, which means I'm actually able to use Clip Gain now for the first time. It's pretty cool!

No complaints. 10 has been good to me. On Wed, uploaded a field recording of my students' concert performance Tues. night, added a one band high pass, channel strip for eq and light compression, bussed to Uad reverb. On the master I used a Uad Fairchild, Ozone 5 CD preset with a few tweaks, then the Pro Tools dither. Lots of edits, mostly to cut time between songs and fade applause. I like being able to view both waveforms as I apply crossfades. Allows me to join the clips so that the performance flows seamlessly from song to song. For the students, I bounced down to a wav file, then burned to CD so they could hear and evaluate their performances. They were genuinely impressed. It's great to see young people discover and enjoy the sound of their voices! I did this in about an hour, from the uploading of the sound file to the burning of the CD. All bus powered running on battery.

Later after school, I bounced to disc creating three or four mp3 versions of varying Cbr's--from 320kb/s to 48kb/s. This was for a presentation given to fellow educators in a computer tech class.

Pro Tools hummed along nicely. Not a huge project by any stretch, but still cool to be able to just zip along without any stutters, hiccups, over-runs, under-runs, etc.
