VCA Meters Misaligned in PT 2021.10 on Big Sur [PT-279918]
Hi,
Is anyone else having the same issue with VCA level meters being misaligned in the new update 2021.10? The meters are also misaligned in Edit Window! When I open any session, it takes a second or two to load the meters on all the tracks. If I enable Narrow Mix, the meters on VCA's jump into the correct position, but there's still some weird thing going on with the meters on VCA's (numbers are quashed, really weird wide meter, meters still show even though there's no group assigned to the VCA track). See the pictures below. I'm on iMac Pro, MacOS 11.6

Re: PT 2021.10 - VCA Level Meters Misaligned
Yep, Happening here too. Some old graphic glitches were sort of fixed in this version, and new ones have been introduced.

I can repro on Big Sur but not on Catalina.
They also reset if you control+option+command+click your meters to change meter width. If you start a support case (Access the Support Center in my.avid.com) please include PT-279918 in the Question/Subject field.

Same here on a 2020 i9 Macbook Pro running Big Sur.
I also get strange and random black glitches on the whole screen. |

Re: VCA Meters Misaligned in PT 2021.10 on Big Sur
I've been having these issues, along with a VERY sluggish UI since 2021.6. Support is aware of the issue and they they claimed they solved it in 2021.10, but clearly they haven't. My only solution has been to revert back to Catalina (The Hard Way). The UI is snappy as it was in Big Sur before .6, and graphic issues are non existent. I tried updating a system clone after .10 was released, but it's still sucky, so Catalina is the only way for me. I like having sidechain delay compensation on my native system, so it's worth going back on OS instead of the pro tools version.
Before figuring this out, I started using my windows rig, and now I'm used to it again. For now I'm sticking with it for stereo mixes, and just using my mac rig for atmos and Soundflow stem printing. Windows is MUCH more stable overall, and I get zero CPU playback errors. SO... Maybe Windows is the future, at least until there's native Apple silicon support for pro tools and all plugins. |

Still experiencing the issue in 2021.12, of course it's not in the release notes but just was hoping by chance it was resolved

Re: VCA Meters Misaligned in PT 2021.10 on Big Sur
I thought this issue would be embarrassing enough that we were going to see a 2021.10.1 to fix it. So I am especially surprised that this wasn't fixed by 2021.12.
I truly regret going with Big Sur and 2021.6 onward. :-( My rig was running so smooth with Catalina and 2021.3. Ever since I've moved beyond that, I've been dealing with constant frustrating bugs. I'm not sure what was worse, all of the weird graphic ones from 2021.6/7 or all the VCA, and other graphic bugs plus VI's dropping out and not playing in 2021.10? (along with the horrid week I spent figuring out the bad HD Driver). I currently feel like Pro Tools is such a mess. It has been a painful 6 months and now another 3 or so until the next update. I would just love a bunch of bug fixes. I want a stable version again. PLEASE .

Re: VCA Meters Misaligned in PT 2021.10 on Big Sur
Same here, 28 core Mac Pro 2019, Big Sur, Dual Radeon Pro W6800X video card.
2021.12 update did not fix it. Shows up random, on newly created aux sends, newly created tracks,... AVID Please do something, this is unacceptable. |
