DANGER: The following is merely observational, and editorial in nature...

Been following Deej's problems with Cubase, and in case you didn't know by
now, the aptly named Samp 9.11 is a frigging disgrace with unexplained crashes,
inability to use multi-core peecees, etc...

That said, is it just my observation, or have the latest bunch of DAW releases
all come with an inexplicable suckage factor? Cubase, Samp, I've heard issues
from Sonar users, Soundforge, all seem to have a giant trouser trout lurking,
waiting to attack. Today, as I was tracking a pretty big project, Samplitude
crashes...no reason, just crashed...

As much as it pains me to say this, PTHD is looking better and better - it
may not be even in the top 5 in sound quality nor value, but there are not
the same unresolved repeat bugs that plague any DAW coming out of Germany
in the past year...

Oh, the humanity....

I agree totally... they are rushing things too quickly.
Bowing to public pressure for more features, then not taking
enough time to shake out the bugs. PTHD is pretty solid,
but in defense of Steinberg (ducking).... N3 is an absolute
rock here. Every so often, if I leave a project open in N3
and walk away for a few hours, the CPU meter starts spiking.
I know this now, so I simply shut the program down if it
will be idle for more than 30 minutes.

I can empathize with DJ though... I had similar pains with
Paris at one point around V2, having to reboot from cold
several times a session... doesn't look very pro.

Dave,

I may be asking a bit much from this program, but I can't really understand
why. I am running a different hardware config than anyone else I have ever
heard of (2 x HDSP 9652's and a Multiface-most folks who get into this many
I/O go the MADI route). There is a reason I don't go MADI and I'm not having
any driver issues or clocking issues at all. Everything in the realm of
hardware is rock solid. This is definitely happening within the software.
I'm ixing a 28 track project right now with 9 analog processors and a 70%
UAD-1 load. I just had a mix 99.9% ready to burn and I uninstalled a plugin
and replaced it with a different one. Got a corrupt project warning and had
to revert back to the last saved project. Luckily I had done a save about 5
minutes before so I didn't lose much, except the final tweaks. Of course,
there was a guy looking over my shoulder while glancing at his watch saying
stuff like "dude.......I've never seen Pro Tools do anything like that. You
gonna' be able to fix this quick?".

I think it is just the v4 software. Luckily I can go back to v3. I will lose
some features that I really like (and which are the reason I upgraded to v
4), but I may just have to do this.

I replied to your PM , BTW

;o)
