MI6ix Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Having this problem every second time I try to bounce in place or bounce audio tracks. Have to force quit and restart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Which hard drive are you bouncing to? System drive? External USB2/3/Firewire/Thinderbolt? How is the disk formatted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Cardenas Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 How much space do you have left on the system drive? Is it set to sleep when inactive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MI6ix Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 30gb free, it is set to sleep when possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdoubleyou Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 For best system performance, you need 15-20% free space on your system drive. I suggest getting an external drive for your projects, depending on your computer it can be FW800, USB3, or Thunderbolt drive, with a rotational speed of 7200 rpm. Also be aware Apple's default hard drives are a relatively slow 5400 rpm. Hard drives are cheap, a larger faster system drive, would help performance, if you have the budget get a SSD for your system drive. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triplets Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Thanks for the that, so it seems it is a processing power problem then? A 5400 rpm HD is too slow for all the tasks you're asking of it. It has little to do with the computer's processing power Free up some room on the drive so you have 20% free. So if you have a 1TB drive, make sure you have 200 gigs free. Also, like said earlier, save your projects to an external HD the moment you create them. Don't put everything on the system drive. And uncheck "put drive to sleep when possible". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It may be related to your drive being bogged down due to the lack of space and possible page outs. It may also be related to "allow sleep". The speed of the drive does not matter in this case since you are bouncing one region in place off line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
