MIDI Production PT 12 Impossible
I spent a week with Avid support scrutinizing and testing plugins and thought ProTools 12.7.1 was going to work. I only have Avid plugins and Air virtual instruments. Now I am into real MIDI production and the situation is a disaster.
Small 10 track session with a few plugins and 4 Air virtual instruments. Constant AAE - 6101 error messages. Often a big crash where ProTools won't play and a hardware reboot is the only solution. MIDI editing, clips in sequence that are sized to the grid overlap each other. MIDI editing, the first note in a clip will often disappear. MIDI editing, clips often rename themselves. ( -01 added for no reason) MIDI editing, MIDI notes will stop playing, I have to delete the note and replace it. With jerky, sticky, faders and knobs it is very difficult to adjust parameters on virtual instruments and plugins. All of these problems have been with ProTools since ProTools 11. My ProTools 8 and 9 worked flawlessly for years when I was doing the same type of sessions. All prefs deleted, my CPU use is at 14%, my memory is at the most 30%. Note: I really don't want to hear from anyone with solutions unless you are actually doing MIDI production or know someone who is. John Clavin

Agree. MIDI editing, clips in sequence that are sized to the grid overlap each other.
MIDI editing, the first note in a clip will often disappear. Same exact problem! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: MIDI Production PT 12 Impossible
MIDI notes disappearing and clips not fitting together may not be a big deal, but it shows a management, engineering, or programming incompetence at Avid.
These are things that worked fine 9 years ago with ProTools 8 & 9. The incompetence that we all clearly see here most likely permeates the entire realm of the Avid Pro Tools environment. John Clavin

I have a Reaper license which we paid less than $70 and it was for a friend who never used it so look into Reaper if you need good midi very cheap.

Bump up to 16GB of ram. 8GB is not enough regardless of what Avid says. 32GB is best if possible.
