Hi I updated to version 12.2 and now I have this teetering issue in a new session I created. The session only have 2 tracks and the weird thing is that the meeter on the stereo audio track works just fine but for the life of me, I can’t get the master track’s meeter to work. Any ideas? Nickus

Or downloaded the wrong installer by mistake. Earlier when I downloaded 12.3.1 I noticed that it wasn't at the top of the list on the Avid site. It's like 3rd or 4th under 12.3 for mac and also under the installer for windows. Sent from my iPhone > On 28 Nov 2015, at 19:09, Slau Halatyn

Hi My first thought was also RAM especially because you say it effects your entire system and not only when using PT. Try a RAM swop out and just to eliminate all things PT, make sure all your plug ins are up to date and also delete your PT preferences. Sent from my iPhone > On 15 Jun 2016,
