Re: Pro tools 2020.3 Crazy Cpu and Ram %

2. No errrors when it crashes. Currently i have a SSD for the system and other for the SESSIONS. 3.Haven't contacted Omnisphere, I'll try that. 4. Yeah, maybe the cpu spikes could be the reason for all of this, i will try reducing a litte bit the session to see what it happens. Im going full VEP tho, as soon as the cuarenteen ends ill get a new computer for that, u made my day! How are u guys taking the covid isolation?? |

Re: Pro tools 2020.3 Crazy Cpu and Ram %
I’m also using VEPro 7. Although there doesn’t seem to be that big of a difference between 6 and 7. But I do find the cpu read outs of each of the instances to be useful and I am sure the team at VSL have made quite a few optimizations and improvements to both RAM and CPU usage. And to be perfectly honest I feel like its well worth the upgrade since, so long as you aren’t trying to upgrade more than a couple of machines it isn’t that expensive. And it keeps VEPro funded so they keep making improvements to the platform. So I saw upgrading as a way to support VEPro and its development in addition to benefiting from the newer code.

Re: Pro tools 2020.3 Crazy Cpu and Ram %
I got a "pro tools is running low on memory" message today. I've had few of them with 2019 as well. This was in a session using 60 something voices. With no VI's. Memory usage was showing around 80%. Disk Cache is set to normal, I actually haven't used disk cache since going to all SSD. I'm noticing that if I just boot up PT with no session loaded, the system usage shows memory at 46%. That seems really high for not even having a session open.

I also started to have quite a lot of 'mini freezes'. This never happened to me before. Will keep an eye on that.

What about support baffles you? One bummer on Macs for VEPro 7 is it no longer supports 32 bit plugins. This is due to OSX changes with Catalina; Windows users still can access their 32 bit plugins. |

Re: Pro tools 2020.3 Crazy Cpu and Ram %
I think I'm going to do a complete reinstall and OS upgrade in a few days, just need to get past some work. Which while this is annoying, it's not keeping me form finishing anything.

Re: Pro tools 2020.3 Crazy Cpu and Ram %
I am also having this problem. Luckily, I was smart enough to keep 2019 on my computer when I installed 2020.3
If I open the session in 2019, my cpu hovers around 10%. If I open it in 2020.3, it constantly redlines at 100% with even a single VI loaded. Avid support for Pro Tools is an absolute joke. Particularly given the fact that we all pay for this "support plan". I used to operate an Avid console and those support guys were the real deal. |

Re: Pro tools 2020.3 Crazy Cpu and Ram %
How exactly do you think Avid should help you with your 3rd party plugin? Sorry if I misunderstood, but Avid Support only deals with Avid software problems.

I'm an Avid Certified Pro Tools Expert Instructor. So let me understand you correctly... You're saying that: if a session in 2020.3 is showing wildly different CPU usages vs the exact same session, with the exact same 3rd party plugins, in 2019... That's not an Avid problem? Are we to expect that Avid support only covers questions about sessions running nothing but Avid products? Beyond that, my comment was fueled by my own ongoing conversation with Avid support about another issue in 2020.3-- for which I have received uneducated and slow responses. Right now, I'm having an issue where frozen tracks will have audio mixed from different tracks in 2020.3. Avid support's response was to explain to me how the feature of track freeze works (which in no way answered, or even acknowledged the issue I'm having): "Those tracks have an enabled Track Freez feature that enables the ability to render any track and its processing to an audio file at a click." --Avid Support (also, they misspelled "Track Freeze") #winning |
