Or quiet simply, AVID started acting like apple, not giving a crap about their customers opinion and simply sucking money from us because they are an industry standard with a well built ecosystem? So my question is, do you think that most of my problems have been caused by the fact that i am using cracked protools that get's no updates and most of them would be resolved if i bought original protools 2018.7. It simply seems to work so smooth and well that protools when compared to it, simply doesn't run very fast or stable at all. I can make a mixbus for 2 channels in 3 seconds. Everything is drag and drop, i can see my bus sends directly in the mixer with no opening them. How stable it is and how many amazing features it has that protools doesn't. How little CPU is uses when compared to a protools session with identical settings. But since i tried out studio one 4 by presonus, i am shocked by how much faster and smoother it runs. I used to think that things like these were normal. I start getting random cpu usage spike errors and cracks/pops much sooner then i get with studio one or repaer, using exactly the same buffer and plugins.ĭuring recording sessions that are 5-10 hours long, protools will freeze at least once and when i start loading it with bunches of plugins when mixing at high buffers i will sometimes get ran out of power errors. When i want do to small buffer recording (64), it can't handle nearely as many plugins as some other daw's can. Jumping around markers using shortcuts is not allways snappy and sometimes i have to repeat the shorcut twice to jump to the marker. Sometimes i open up a session and the playback toolbar freezes, i can't play the multitrack and i have to restart the project. I would allways be running around small problems like: Which are top of the line mobile workstation bussines class workstation laptops. I have reproduced these problems on multiple high end well built machines like lenovo P50's and W540's. It works fine for the most part but it's full of tiny problems that seem to be a result of bad programming. However, i was never quiet happy with both protools stability, or performance. I also recorded huge bunches of live multitracks.įor a while now, i was planning on investing in buying protools since i use them a lot. I have been working in protools 12.5.1 for almost three years now, did a lot of recording at low buffers and a lot of mixing on high buffers. I first started with cubase, then replaced it with a cracked version of protools 12.5.1 (i'm running windows). ![]() ![]() I don't care about post-production and i don't work with midi very much. I do both live recordings since i'm a live sound engineer. ![]() So long story short, i use my DAW for recording and mixing bands. I just wrote the same subjet in r/protools but i want to hear some opinions here too, thanks :)
