I am in the dilemma of upgrading from Pro Tools 7.4HD to 10HD. We currently have 2 rooms running 7.4 with HD2 accel on windows xp machines with the legacy 192's and sync I/O's. I would like to upgrade to 10HD with our existing hardware running on osx Lion systems.

A friend of mine gave me pro tools 8 le because i wanted to start recording. What hardware do i need? and what can i use? I know about mbox's and m-audio interfaces, but there very highly priced. id like something that gives me a lot of control like the Yamaha mg mixers or Behringer mixers with multiple channels.

Hi!

Here is a link to a free Pro Tools tutorial about how to use beat detective to lock a performance to the grid while preserving its initial groove and feel:

I recently purchased a Glyph external hard drive to dedicate as the recording hard drive. I had previously used the internal and then a Western Digital external hard drive. When I attempt to open files on the WD I get incomplete files-missing blank tracks. Then the screen to find files comes up with DAE error 9126. I can find the files, but when I try to link them I again get Error 9126.

Well. .that's the slogan anyway. There is a presentation and official launch of Pro Tools 10 and HDX. As much as I love to bash Pro Tools, I sincerely think this new platform will be a game changer. The new HDX cards are seriously powerful and Disc Cache is going to make a big difference in the way people work with audio. Once they go the full 64bit, there will be no stopping them.

Hey all!

Question about where to put my compressor in the plugin chain. If I was using it separately, would it be before, say for example, the SansaAmp or after it? Same question for EQ as well.

For anyone itching to upgrade, I implore you not to. I want to downgrade because of how awful the new fade system is in PT10. It has completely slowed down my workflow. Whenever you crossfade something you get a doubling effect. Its ridiculous. I can't figure out a way to get around it either. PT9 crossfades were beautiful and effortless. It practically did the work for you.

To my surprise Avid has already release Pro Tools 10; Wow! Has anyone using Pro Tools made the upgrade yet? If so please let me know how it’s working out. I thought I at least had another month or so to work in 9 seems like just yesterday I upgraded form 8; not that I’m complaining.
