  1. Thanks. How do I disable it? I suppose it's through Plug-in Manager but it doesn't seem to disable it.
  2. I did not, it's my first time upgrading Logic as well as OS. Realized it's a huge mistake now.
  3. So recently updated to 10.7.1 and a lot of project files can't be opened. While loading up halfway through initialising plugins Logic will just crash unexpectedly. I can classify them under 2 categories. 1. Older projects with particular plugins used cannot be opened/crashed. In Plug-in Manager, these plugins (I counted Soundtoys, Slate, sonible) are shown 'validation crashed' and rescanning them yields the same result. I read somewhere that I need to update both the plugin versions and iLok Manager to the latest, but it didn't solve the problem. I don't think iLok Manager even has a latest version. 2. New projects done in 10.7.1 that just crashed indiscriminately despite using none of the plugins mentioned above. I could open them for a while but now it's just totally unusable. First time updating LPX on my machine since I had my Mac a couple of years ago (big mistake I know), so no idea how to troubleshoot them.
  4. Thanks all! After reformatting to macOS X Extended there's been an improvement. There's still beach balls but waiting time is significantly shorter, and so far Logic did not hang on me, unlike previously. I just wonder given that this is a new machine with somewhat beefed-up specs, if having beach balls - even for a little while - is normal. Some non-Logic actions are also experiencing beach balls as well.
  5. Thanks for the input. I will try it when I get access to my iMac tonight. Does choosing I/O buffer size utilize the external SSD in any way?
  6. Hello everyone, new member here! I just had a brand-new iMac (specs in my signature) delivered over the weekend, and I intend for this machine to do most of my producing work. I have been using Logic Pro for some years now on my old MacBook Pro ever since I started taking up producing jobs, so I am fairly familiar with how the entire LPX workflow works. I had a rude awakening after installing LPX and sorting out my third-party samples (which are housed on my external 1TB thunderbolt-SSD), as Logic seems to have constant beach balls and even hanging after some simple commands, such as playing out my tracks (I am only using at most 2 third-party samples so far), or even as simple as changing I/O buffer size on my Preferences. CPU and RAM usage seemed to be running just fine. My old MacBook Pro, which has inferior specs to my current iMac, performs all of them with generally no problems. In fact, I constantly have projects in my old MacBook Pro carrying in excess of 30-40 tracks with third-party plugins before it starts to overload or even just perform slowly, so this has been very frustrating given the fact that this iMac just came into my possession a few days ago. Currently my SSD houses the samples for my plugins and my project files, while everything else, including the apps, are in the internal SSD of the chassis. I have prepped as much as possible to make the workflow as smooth as possible. My external SSD is exFAT-formatted though so I don't know if that can be an issue. Could the new LPX and/or macOS versions be the cause of the issues as well?
