Im having some serious Pro Tools issues. started getting;
you are running out of CPU power. Remove some RTAS plug-ins or increase the CPU usage Limit in the playback with barely any plug ins used. just recording 1 track. Assumed this was due to the influx of plug-ins I had recently used, so uninstalled all plug ins. but problem still there if not worse. Played around with differend Playback/recording settings i.e buffer size CPU usage etc etc. Really struggling to work out what has changed as 2 weeks ago it was working fine. Hardware? need a better PC? Im baffled |

I used to have a similar issue from time to time with PTLE, although I'm pretty sure I never had it with just one track.
It has been a while since I used that program so I can't remember exactly how I addressed it. Are you saying you're recording a single track or are you saying your entire project is just a single track. If the former, take a look at all the plugs you have going and see if any of them are cpu hogs (like reverb for example) or ram hogs (for example reason as a rewire app may consume a lot of ram depending what you're using it for). Has is been a while since you did a defrag? Is there a security (anti-virus) thing running on your machine? Those things can sometimes be a pain. Maybe do a ctrl-alt-del and take a look at the processes to see if maybe something is consuming CPU in the background. Good luck. Post back with additional details if none of that helps. Charlie

it can be any number of problematic issues. too much cpu being drained by background services? close out unused programs. change your desktop to a straight blue or black background to save a little cpu processing. you should change your power management settings to never let your computer even think about shutting down or sleeping, and your hard disks need special attention, too. make certain they're operating in tip top shape. another thing you can do is limit your graphics card to minimal (for your purposes) use. that will save a TAD more cpu. generally just make sure it's ready to read/write without interuption. with lower end digi software, though, you need to always be thinking about your CPU FIRST.
