Re: I believe it's time to change DAWs

Coming from Logic Pro (with its extensive MIDI editing capabilities) I don’t really find Pro Tools lacking at all… but I play in my MIDI parts and don’t rely on programming much.

Re: The MEGA Plugin Deals Thread

I’m away from my music system for few days so can’t compare them, how do they compare to Plugin Alliance and IKM (many similar/overlapping plugins)? Are they as good as they are hyped to be?

Re: Pro Tools Sketch: 2023.9 takes on Ableton

Damned if they do, damned if they don't...

There's no reason why Avid can't keep improving core features of Pro Tools that appeal to old timers while adding new interesting capabilities for those...

Re: VI Articulations management

The easiest way I found is to use a separate MIDI track routed to the same Kontakt/VI instance, with a clever use of clips - here it is explained pretty nicely:

Re: 2021.12 | Release Notes

I understand some disappointment for lack of new features, but I also appreciate the stability improvements in 2021.12 - many plugins that were crashing PT (upon start) are now working fine on...

Re: Has anyone tried Pro Tools 2021.7 on the Monterey Betas?

Yep, OC with flashed Titan Ridge, and SurPlus for hassle-free Monterey support!

It’s unbelievable how much value we can still get out of those “obsolete” MP5.1s, but the writing is on the wall,...

Re: Has anyone tried Pro Tools 2021.7 on the Monterey Betas?

Intel not M1, so it might be different on latest MBPs, but FWIW, here’s my experience running PT on Monterey beta on a completely unsupported setup:

- Monterey beta
- Mac Pro 5.1
- Thunderbolt

Re: Big Sur Update - Graphics lag and can't reorder tracks

That is weird... does it also affect other apps or only PT?

EDIT: actually it seems similar performance issues are affecting few people - here's a thread at apple with few hundred posts already:

Re: Big Sur Update - Graphics lag and can't reorder tracks

I don’t think it’s Pro Tools related, but Big Sur is a major upgrade so it could be doing some under the hood work that needs time to stabilize..

I would leave it idle overnight and reboot the...

Re: New 24" iMac M1

Re: New 24" iMac M1

I actually like the new design, but don’t need an all-in-one... and with the addition of 10GbE to the Mac Mini I find it way more interesting to my workflow.

Re: Thunderbolt on Mac Pro 5,1
