I have to agree with Becharax.

Still no luck , [U]NO LUCK[/U]

Running on Win 10 20h2 , Avid stated months ago that Pro tools 2020 was not compatible with Win 10 20h2. In fact , it worked but was highly unstable , plus had some randoms AAE 9173 erros (CPU getting crazy and making the playback crashes , even with a strong computer ).

I tried that with my i9 -10980h ( 16 threads) , 32 gb and up to 5.0 ghz with some Nvme SSD ...

Even with 1 or 2 external plugins , and with all Cpu below 10% , the program crash with fluctuating spikes from the main TOTAL CPU .

And it doesn't have to do with removing faulty plugin or something else , even with only AIR PLUGINS , opening just a folder , opening internet makes the program crash (again with all the cores below 10%) .

Contacted Avid with my id , they said maybe it was because they stated that win 10 20h2 was not recommanded , but i can see clearly now , it's not my win 10 system .

This is a nightmare for me .

For those that upgraded to Big Sur, did you check to see if all your 3rd party plugins were compatible? I'm seeing multiple ones for me that aren't so I'm waiting. Here are ones that are not yet compatible for me:

• Exponential Audio Phoenixverb
• IK Sampletank, Amplitube
• UVI Workstation
• Arturia V7 Collection (V8 is compatible, but seriously?)
• Native Instruments Battery 4
• Sonoma Wireworks Drumcore - may be compatible with workarounds
  

Here are ones I'm waiting to find out from the developers:

• Soundradix
• Drumforge DF-Q
• Accusonus
• PSP VintageWarmer2, PSP42
• TAL U-No-106
• Wavesfactory Track Spacer
• Slate Digital Drums - No

bottom line, check your plugins because while Pro Tools may be BigSur Compatible, your plugins may not be...

Are you running a pre-release of Big Sure 11.3? The latest version of Big Sur is currently still 11.2.3. Assuming it was a typo, the issue is probably the need to update the firmware for the HDX cards.

There are multiple threads in the HDX & HD Native forum about HD hardware not being recognized on Catalina (will be the same with Big Sur) systems along with steps to fix it.

I've had that type of thing happen here when I had my 2nd monitor turned off. It sends the pop-up alert to that monitor (even though it's not turned on) and so it appears to me that there's no message at all. I don't know if that's related to his issue but it has tripped me up more than once.

The compatibility chart shows that for Windows 10 20H2, you need Protools 2021.3. I'm not sure if you are already talking about Protools 2021.3 (since this is a new forum/thread about Protools 2021.x), but your post mentions "Pro tools 2020."

My post is correct .

i downloaded and installed this new version that was released yesterday .

Avid said that my problem was because it was still pro tools 2020.12 So i was waiting , because they don't seem to find a solution to that issue . Now , with this new version , i tested it and i have exactly the same problems !!

Thats what i'm saying

[etl17]

2020.12 was running ok on my Windows 20H2.
However, 2021.3 is a no-go. It complains that there is not enough memory available. I am running on 24GB and there is more than 15GB of free memory available when Pro Tools throws that error.

Is there any way to revert back to the 2020.12 version till the Windows issues are resolved? On the Avid site only the 2021.3 download seems to be available...

I'm still going to wait a bit before jumping in. Looking forward to reading any early reports.
