I do have to say that there is loads more plug-in Native DSP compared to my old 2010 - 12 core 2.66.SEB disables the macOS Dock, the process switcher (cmd+Tab/cmd+Shift+Tab), menu bar, the Force Quit window (cmd+opt+esc), normal reboot (ctrl+cmd+eject), normal shutdown (ctrl+opt+cmd+eject), hiding the application, printing and Exposé.
The session played smooth 512 on the 2013 Mac Pro. Once I opened the same session on the new machine I could load a tons more plugins vs my old 12 core.
#TOOL FOR MAC PRO PRO#
My session was maxed out on my old 2010 Mac Pro Buffer was absolutely max’d The one import thing that you guys missed was the buffer size on my old Mac Pro the buffer was 2048 the new mac pro the buffer was set at 512. Thanks mentioning my article on the podcast. Grant got in touch to give us this update… Thank you very much Grant for sharing these test results with us.

Pro Tools HD 11 HDX 2-512 Voices Mac Pro 2013 2.7 Xeon E5 12 Core 1232 DVERBS Pro Tools HD 10 HDX 2-512 Voices Mac Pro 2013 2.7 Xeon E5 12 Core 1009 DVERBSīuffer at 512 and 90% CPU (24 Processors) Here are the Dverb benchmarks (note all these benchmarks are 44.1Khz Sample Rate This was a standard test we did sometimes for Digi when I was to beta testing on Pro Tools so it helped Avid as well so coders could see how efficient PT plugin DSP benchmarked. The Deverb test is relative test so no people I don’t need a session with 1000 Deverbs it’s only a RELATIVE test to show improvements over the years and from one systems to another. How many Dverbs does it take to kill a Pro Tools system?įrom my former days as a Pro Tools beta tester I though of doing a D-Verb test as I have multiple systems over the years as comparison. I am not sure what that is about either.Īlso one last minor issue I get a iLok sharing warning on Mac Pro boot up but everything seems to be OK with any of my ilok plugs and Pro tools. One other thing I did notice PT HD 10 ran out of memory on the first launch (or any first launch after installing a plug-in among several other things as well) but the second launch always seems to be fine. I installed 10.3.8 and it launched so fast.
#TOOL FOR MAC PRO DRIVER#
HD 10 with HDX 2 using HDX driver version labeled 11.0.3 works with a Magma 3 slot Thunderbolt (v.1) chassis.Īlthough the driver was labeled 11.0.3 but the installer showed it was 11.0.1 I don’t know what that is about but I though I would mention that detail. Many of my colleges are still on PT 10 so I wanted to see what works and what does not. On the new Mac Pro you MUST use a USB hub for your ilok(s) This corrects all ilok issues. The Zodiac was in alignment for me for new Mac Pro.
#TOOL FOR MAC PRO PLUS#
Plus as Apple developer I get a very nice discount. I needed to buy a second HDX 2 rig But I don’t have a lot of space and want a small system with lots of jam for mixing big 96K sessions. In conclusion is it worth it? Absolutely I can’t believe how much faster session load times are and the efficiency of the Native DSP- Ultimately depends on your situation - I already had a Magma Chassis for my Venue rig. I have no explanation as it was the EXACT same session with the EXACT same i/o set up and the session played perfectly with the H/W buffer size set to 512 on 2013 Mac Pro. On the 2013 Mac Pro the session load time was much faster and it only showed 77 Voices. On the 2010 Mac Pro it showed 117 Voices it would NOT playback with the H/W buffer size set to 512 it needed to bumped up to 2048 to get it to play. I found some very interesting differences first of all was the voice count this was the exact same session in PT 11 2013 12 Coreįirstly I wanted to test a “real world session” I brought up a small 96K mix session. Community member Grant Hall has been in touch to share some test results he has undertaken comparing Pro Tools 11 on an older 2010 Mac Pro with a new 2013 Mac Pro with a Magma chassis.
