Re: Protools won't open.

I disagree with your conclusion. If Pro Tools was the problem, no one else would be able to run it. "Files not in the right place" would only happen if you did not accept the Pro Tools defaults.

Re: AIR Instruments, AAX Status and Upgrade Information

I want to thank AIR and M-Audio for their continuing ineptitude which led me to the Roland Jupiter 50 I mentioned earlier this thread. Four days or so later ... I might be more critical if it cost...

Re: Pro Tools 10 (or 11) on Lenovo T61?

Actually I wasn't trying to disparage the venerable T61 at all. I'm impressed that a laptop that old can still run PT. I've owned several, though I didn't use them for music production. It definitely...

Re: Protools won't open.

I've had issues in the (recent) past when I recycled an OS drive for use as an Audio drive when I too installed a Samsung 840 Pro as the new OS drive; it turned out that while I thought I wiped the...

Re: Pro Tools 10 (or 11) on Lenovo T61?

For anyone thinking of running out and grabbing a T61, you should know:


IBM/Lenovo made that model for at least three years, if not longer, so there are all sorts of configurations offered.

Re: SSD HDD Recommendations for Pro Tools 11

Are you saying enable Trim on OS SSDs too or just on session drives? The reason why is ... ? And the reason to use a third party tool (which I assume if Mac only) is? Is your SSD advice just for Macs...

Re: AIR Instruments, AAX Status and Upgrade Information

I just said good riddance to M-Audio which stands on equal footing with AIR as an ex-Avid holding which can't figure out communication. The issue here was a controller keyboard, as in the AIR Axiom...

Re: Need to point PT toward .big files

I could be wrong but it didn't seem like any big deal to install the AIR stuff for PT 11 on another drive.

Once again, we're talking about two different things:

1) Where the instrument, say...

Re: Best iLok instructions?

I know what you're talking about and have done that in the past and it works great; only it wasn't the instruments that caused the hang on the Windows logo, it was doing that before I loaded PT.

Re: Need to point PT toward .big files

It's a bit of a diabolical dialog box. I'm sure if you saw it three or four times you'd figure it out, but it can create a little havoc the first couple of times you engage with it. There needs to a...

Re: Need to point PT toward .big files

Hi Albee,

A close reading of your reply begs several questions.

"I would remove them and reinstall on your system drive." Did you mean to say my Samples drive? If you really meant the system...

Need to point PT toward .big files

After changing some drive names after upgrading to an SSD OS drive, I just realized that I installed the virtual instruments for 10.3.7 and 11 to my Audio drive instead of my Samples drive! Right...

Re: Best iLok instructions?

Took the SSD plunge, Samsung 840 Pro, and now have fully functional 10.3.7 and 11 installed and looking fully ready to roll.

Thanks for the encouragement!

Re: Can't download 10.3.7 (student, if it matters)

Looks like I made it through installing fresh versions of both 10.3.7 and 11.1 on my new SSD and PT can find effects and VIs for both versions.

Speaking of which, I study user interfaces and that...

Re: Can't download 10.3.7 (student, if it matters)

Re: Can't download 10.3.7 (student, if it matters)

Great call Bruce! No go in Firefox, got through fine in Chrome. Adobe Flash and Firefox have been on edge for a while, though usually not quite to that extent.
