6101 Error - Potential Solution - Change playback engine to 1 processor

Thought I would post something I stumbled across that really helped me out and might help someone else out in the future.



These days I'm running PT10 plain on an early 2011 15" MacBook Pro. For some reason I had no end of trouble with 6101 errors. I did all the optimizations (turn off spotlight etc), added more ram, put session on an external drive, try different number of processors, etc. etc. - everything you were supposed to do and I could get no relief.



The system worked but just got overloaded easily and started throwing up 6101 errors. I could get through simple (12-16 track) mixes with moderate numbers of plugs but something didn't seem right. And I couldn't mix at all at a higher sample rate or bit depth than 44.1 / 24 without 6101 errors. Argh.



I thought the computer was just too slow but was frustrated since the newer computers aren't much faster.



I was thinking of upgrading to PT11 just to see if it would help or maybe even switching DAWs.



I replaced the system drive with an SSD drive and though that made the whole computer work a lot better it didn't help the 6101 errors.



Then I stumbled across someone on some message board through google with a similarish problem who suggested that setting the playback engine to 1 processor might help. So it gave it a shot.



And the problem went away. Like magic. Can't believe it.



Hope this helps someone else.
