Core Audio issues with PT12.4 and Digi 003
I've been contemplating upgrading from PT 11.3.1 to PT 12.4, which I got for free when I purchased 11 last year. Tonight I read the read me article and saw that you cannot run third party core audio applications while PT is running if you're using a Digi 003, which is what I have. Nor can you playback audio directly from the finder through the Digi 003. Since I upgraded to PT 11 last year, I have been delighted to be able to playback audio while having multiple programs running, including PT, as well as playing back audio in the finder through the Digi 003. Is it true that these features will once again disappear if I upgrade to PT 12?
PT 11.3.1, Digi 003, Focusrite Octopre, Waves Gold, Izotope RX3 Advanced, Sampletank 3, Space, 2012 Mac Mini i7 quadcore 16 gb RAM, OS 10.9.5 |

Re: Core Audio issues with PT12.4 and Digi 003
Here's the link to the v.12.4 read me pdf: http://akmedia.digidesign.com/suppor...88970.pdf?ns=1
It's on page 14: Limitations of the Avid CoreAudio driver with CoreAudio Manager The 003 systems have the following limitations: Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools with 003 systems require exclusive access to Pro Tools hardware. You cannot use CoreAudio applications and Pro Tools with these systems at the same time. To use Pro Tools, make sure you quit any CoreAudio applications before launching Pro Tools on these systems. To use a CoreAudio application with these systems, make sure you quit Pro Tools before starting the CoreAudio application. The Digi CoreAudio Driver cannot be used to preview sound files from the Mac Finder while Pro Tools is running. When a sound file is located in the Mac OS X navigation window, a QuickTime transport bar is displayed next to it. The QuickTime transport bar lets you audition the sound file. With USB audio interfaces, you can preview sound files from the Mac Finder as long as Pro Tools is not run- ning. Regardless, with FireWire and Avid HD audio interfaces, the sound will always play back though the Mac built-in audio controller (through the Mac speaker or headphone jack). However, if you double-click a sound file, the QuickTime application will launch, which can use the Digi CoreAudio Driver for playback. The CoreAudio Driver cannot be used for playback of Mac System Sounds. |

Re: Core Audio issues with PT12.4 and Digi 003
Hi Sadie. Using 12.4 and a Digi 003 here... FYI I haven't experienced any of those core audio limitations. I can swap between open programs (PT to Logic to Safari) and all audio continues to play from the 003.

That's good to hear. I'll try installing it this weekend and see what happens.
