Default Unplug your Xbox controller.....

If you are getting CPU usage errors you can't figure out, make sure you don't have an Xbox controller plugged in.

Hi, welcome to the community.

Why would you connect XBOX to a computer you are using for Pro Tools? To me it makes as much sense as buying first class flight ticket and asking flight attendants if there is space available in economy.

A lot of folks use their computers for more than just audio recording.. I'm a hobyist, so having a separate Pro Tools computer isn't in the cards (nor practical) for me..

That said, I don't have an Xbox either :)

Assuming the OP isn’t just Spam, an Xbox is just a PC wrapped in a nice package. Also, the OP is suggesting unplugging the hand held controller, not the whole Xbox itself.

Game console controllers can be used with PC’s and Macs for playing games.

Sorry, I meant I don't have an Xbox controller.. The point is more understanding there are use cases outside our own that need to be considered.

Post is a bit suspect though, as you mention.
