ProTools Ult 2020.11 Full scale noises

[mattrixx]

Since updating to 2020.11 I have been getting full scale noise/feedback, when launching sessions, activating or deactivating AUXs etc.

It's bloody scary to be honest and I don't want to break anything in my monitoring chain.

I use many AUXs for routing things like SourceConnect, SourceNexus, Izotope RX monitor and Soundly.

This never happened with any previous versions and this is really bloody annoying. What the hell has changed to be causing this??

Regards,
Matt

Hi don't have a clue but comes to mind the most simple thing delete prefereneces. Did you ?

[mattrixx]

No, I did not delete preferences. To be honest, all is working well other than the routing bursts on launch, activating and de-activating of AUXs (which settles straight after and I can de-activate and re-activate without bursts after the session settles.)

[jeam25]

It worth try unless you have complex routing set right now. Maybe exporting IO settings first ?

[mattrixx]

Yes, might give that a try, as most of the routing is via SourceElements products.

If you have a VST host, until there’s a fix, protect your gear and ears:

"Ice9 Automute’s soft-muting function will begin to attenuate the gain before a single sample over the threshold has passed. Instantaneous radical attenuation will occur if the threshold is exceeded by a severe and potentially dangerous amount.
This update features an increased threshold range for matching levels commonly used with digital/analog hybrid signal chains. It also fixes an important functional issue for Windows users, and introduces internal improvements for Mac users.
Changes in Ice9 Automute v1.1
Increased threshold range to -12dB, adjustable in 1dB increments.
Windows: auto reset was not working on some systems. Fixed.
OS X: Recompiled with Apple LLVM C++ compiler (brings stability and performance improvements)."
