Hey everyone...
I have just recently purchsed the final items for a small recording studio and I am in need of a bit of help...
Here's what I have:
Mbox with Protools LE 6.1
on a:
B&W G3 500 1 Gig of Ram 20 Gig HD
Well, I finally got the Mbox this week and spend that last couple of days getting things installed and everything hooked up. Pretty easy, at least so far. Haven't done anything fancy or messed with the software much beyond getting couple of tracks up and running.
But I have run into a problem I am hoping somenoe can help me with.
I am getting an error that "CPU usage is holding off USB audio -9136." It gives a bunch of options, some of which I have tried and some of which I don't yet understand. From Digidesigns website I see that others have had this issue as well. Anyone here have it...and what do I do to fix it?
I called up the CPU meter to monitor the usage and it is barely being touched, so I don't understand the error. We aren't running anything fancy so far as I know. Strait mics into the Mbox recording 2 tracks with no effects...at least until after. The warning shows up what seems to be totally randomly. Sometimes 2 seconds in, sometimes 2 minutes in.
My first thought was a CPU upgrade, but since I can't really afford it right now, and since the CPU meter is showing plenty of room, that's out. My other thought was to use OS 9 and Protools 5.x that also came with the Mbox. But I have a feeling this might lead to other issues I don't want any part of. Any thoughts on doing something like that?
Anyway, for what we could get done last night, it was pretty fun. I appreciate any help anyone can shoot my way on this.
Thanks again, Eddie
