ok you need to update to the latest version of Pro tools and I believe it is 8.04 this is crucial!

Second what Maudio interface do you have?

Third Pro tools 7.4 cant really use a PT8 session file

Fourth Pro tools 8.04 does not work on G5's so your friend is going to need to upgrade to an intel mac soon.

I can give you more info once I know what interface you have.

@Mrbendointhis

Try emptying the contents of your Windows "Prefetch" folder.

also try lowering your DAE Playback Buffer (NOT your H/W Buffer Size?) Try setting it to 0 and see if that helps. Try increasing the cache size too.

Also do you only have one hard drive? That may also be a problem.


@Ozmosis Yes, and I have a copy. Its really great. Allot of people don't know this but Presonus basically hired the original Nuendo development team for Studio One. I think it has lots of potential. And Presonuns is such a great company.

I dont need to send the session back to work in 7.4, i just need to get it to work in my comp.

my friend using the g5 with protools mpowered doesnt need to load the session either

Ive used the 8.04 update with still the same problem, My playback engine settings are beefed up to the max to handle a large project as well

Also since ive installed Protools ive noticed my Fruity Loops 9 is kinda glitching, just stuttering kinda and its Really annoying.

Are you recording to your internal hard drive?

and Damn it your gonna make me fire up pro tools arent you lol

I believe you go to setup and the playback, but I cant remember poke around there.



Yes im Recording to the internal hard drive, I had a recording session the other day recorded a ton of vocals that sessions Fine.

using the waves i had on my comp, the session loads back up fine

but loading the other session from 7.4 with waves plugins doesnt work.. i press play and it pauses automatically even when i hold play
