Default Re: GUI short freeze and beachball still on 2021.7

There are some people here who will tell you to reinstall your OS. It doesn't fix it. I tried. Running an M1 macbook air.

There's at least one person here persistently telling people to do a clean install on the basis that a theoretical test-session recording blank audio works fine. I think in reality, those tests doesn't correlate with how people actually use pro tools. In my experience, the problem seems to be triggered by scrolling around in a larger session. GUI/meters gets sluggish, and eventually beachballs. 2021.7 is better than 2021.6 for this, but it still exists.

I'd strongly recommend to disregard the suggestions that a clean install will fix 2021.7 . You'll likely commit to a lot of downtime with no results to show for.

Submit a support ticket to avid, and wait for the next PT update which hopefully fixes it once and for all.
