Default Re: PT 2018.10 is here

Hmm.. just created a new 96/64 project, added 8 stereo audio tracks and armed them, put an eq and comp on each, no issues at all.

Deleted those tracks, put one vi track (fab filter twin 2), armed it, can not play a 3 note chord, pro tools all red.

Put to 128 buffer, playable but way too high cpu usage.

Put to 256, which is the equivalent setting of 128 buffer at 44k, and once again everything is perfect, cpu is like 35%. But no other cores active, no spiking.

One thing that DID make the record armed audio tracks go nuts at 96/64 was adding a very high quality native verb.. the avid verbs are no issue though. But try Pro-R, Seventh heaven, etc.

...........AND

the midi routing bug that Osamu promised me would be fixed in the next release (i contacted him about it during 2018,7)

is not fixed. What a surprise.

Just that one project I was talking about, with one Vi track, i just reloaded it, and fab filter twin had lost it's connection.

This is pathetic.

I have had it, as i truly believed the promises that were being made to me for this release.

I'm out.

See ya Avid. No more of my money, ever, until basic things are fixed.

I'll check in twice a year from now on to see progress, and that's it. I mean seriously, how can reloading a song and the proper midi channels not being assigned, not be a MAJOR thing? Imagine songs with 32 Vi or even more, and midi tracks all routed to external synths. I am going to use the term outrageous and leave it there.

Hi again Logic.

I haven't seen any real reason to go beyond PT 12.4 when we got track freeze. It seems like any new features were for PT HD only. But, I'm still paying. PT 12.4 does everything I need for music production.

Does it seem like theyre employing programmers who dont actually “get it” and dont truly understand WHY things are wrong?!?! Did they hire video game and spread sheet programmers who know nothing of professional audio or what? How can it take this long to fix things?

Now it shows!

Hmm.. boring release notes, there's not much happening at Avid really compared to Apple.

Personally, I'm fine with the slow and steady approach Avid takes. PT is a pretty old code base, and I bet it's complicated making changes and adding new features without breaking some other existing functionality. I'll take stability over fancy new features any day.

I do agree and hear the frustration with low buffer performance. I've had an HDX rig since PT10-11 and I've never been able to run at low buffer settings with out errors. So I keep "ignore playback errors" on all the time and remain hopeful!
