Removing Playback Engines from list of choices

After repeated issues of wrong playback engine selected on PT startup, using non-Avid hardware (requiring me to restart PT and press N), I've been wondering:

Is there a way to remove all...

Pro Tools 10 won't start!

I can't really solve this one, I've been stuck for days now without a solution.

- If I try to start it, it goes through plugins, and then tells me it quit unexpectedly.
- If I try to start it...

Re: Definitive answer needed on Host Processors settings

Sorry! Didn't mean to offend, I was just being humorous!

It does seem like the rule of thumb is not a rule at all. I have been using it for years now, only to find (thanks to a pro tooler friend...

Yay, captain obvious is back! =D

Yes, I think everyone here knows all that. My question had to do with where the sweet spot will be, since I just found out that the "rule of thumb of selecting...

Re: Definitive answer needed on Host Processors settings

Yep, that's what I'm learning with this experiment :) Still curious to know where that sweet spot would be for 8-core Mac Pro owners, tho.

That would address a lot of technical mysteries, since...

Re: Definitive answer needed on Host Processors settings

I notice a very interesting thing with my quad mac pro (8 threads). For the sake of Native CPU floor measurements, I kept a template session with some instruments loaded, the buffer at 32 samples,...

Re: Switching from Pro Tools - now I feel dumb for spending $250 on a measly update :

Cool. Well, technically, if I sell the update key + software + hardware (digi 003 Rack) - that should run fine, right? They can use the hardware serial for the 003.

Hi! Does anyone have experience with re-selling your Pro Tools key? Is that a possibility?

If not, how would I proceed to return a software product, like Pro Tools 9 update, to Avid for a refund?...

Re: Strange 003 rack behavior - clicks, flashes, and reboots itself!

Not at all, I power cycle mine everyday.

But it is a noticeable issue with the product, and when people spend this much money nowadays, they don't expect to see an issue that would mostly happen...

Re: Digi 003 Rack Monitor Volume - crackling pot

Digidesign, Avid and their authorized repair centers have never given me that information, as far as I can recall. I kept asking for it, so I could just order the part. They said something about it...

Re: Avid Drivers Prevent Sleep - Why?

Tree-hugging greenie? Get a hold of yourself, man. Aren't we all music loving audio dorks here anyway? That's almost worse than tree hugging greenie.

Re: Avid Drivers Prevent Sleep - Why?

Pulling the power plug on a Mac Pro at night is not the same thing as letting it go to sleep automatically after 1 hour of inactivity :P

Re: Avid Drivers Prevent Sleep - Why?

I do! I have 2 switch boxes with labels for each gear group, so I can just shut off the master and turn it all off (except the 'puter). Is that weird? :p

Re: Avid Drivers Prevent Sleep - Why?

I have the same problem and contacted tech support.

They charge $100 just to "take a look at it", which is maybe OK if you think $500 is a decent price for a support phone call, but NOT OK for...

Yes, after years spending thousands of dollars in interfaces and new computers just to "pamper" Avid and their buggy software, that's exactly what I need now: A solid state drive! HAH! :D

Re: Avid Drivers Prevent Sleep - Why?

True that! Thanks for the tip. But I wonder, can I run Pro Tools successfully without any Avid drivers installed tho? Say, if I get a focusrite saffire pro 40, I can uninstall all avid drivers and...

Re: ProTools 9.0.2 Updater and Full Install for MAC are *OFFICIALLY BROKEN*

Nevermind, only my last post was deleted because it contained profanity and such.

Anyway, I have 9.0.2 and it installed fine, as far as I recall. Maybe the download is getting corrupted? Happens a...

Re: Avid Drivers Prevent Sleep - Why?

Yeah, you guys need to stop clinging with the interface. Disconnection shouldn't bother Pro Tools 9 at all, now that it's native and supports non-Avid interfaces. You could try to find out what...

Re: Avid Drivers Prevent Sleep - Why?

What about Nuendo or Digital Performer? Why don't Live or Reason disable sleep in your Mac? By now you should...

Re: Avid Drivers Prevent Sleep - Why?

But a "Professional DAW" should at least give you an option to change that in the settings :) . Righty-o?
