| No audio when playing a session, or Mac freezes when instantiating a Plug-In on a DSP Farm PCI/II in a PTIII PCI system (PT 4.0). |
This could be caused by running DigiSystem INIT (DSI) 3.1.1 or earlier with a rev II DSP Farm. Although there is no functional difference between DSP Farm revs, DSP Farms that have serial numbers starting with "FG" require DAE/DSI 3.2 or later for proper operation.
Note: The Magma 7 Slot Chassis is not supported by DSI 3.2 or 3.2.1. Magma 7 Slot Chassis users should be running DAE/DSI 3.1.1 or 3.2.3.

This appears to be an issue with Pro Tools 4.1, DAE/DSI 3.2, regardless of track count.
Workaround is to switch to 44.1k sample rate.

- Download and install FreeMIDI 1.3.1 or higher from www.motu.com
- The FreeMIDI and OMS Emulator extensions must be in the Extensions folder. If FreeMIDI version 1.33 or higher is installed the OMS emulator extension is not needed.
- Disable the Open Music System Extension
In FreeMIDI Setup:
1) In the FreeMIDI Preferences window, enable "FreeMIDI applications only" and "Inter-application MIDI".
2) If version 1.32 or higher FreeMIDI is being used there is a check box in the prefs called "emulate OMS" that needs to be checked.
In Performer:
1) Always launch Performer first. If DAE loads then select "MIDI only" from the Basics menu. DAE will quit.
2) In Receive Sync window (Basics menu), select "Inter-application MIDI" and in same window select "MTC, DTL or DTLe".
3) Enable "Slave to external sync" in Basics menu.
4) Set desired frame rate from Basics menu.
4) Press the Play button on the transport - it should flash, indicating that it's waiting for MTC from Pro Tools.
In Pro Tools:
1) In the Session Setup window, set "Output Time Code" pop-up to Digital Performer.
2) Verify that the Frame Rate, Format and Start Time are the same in both Digital Performer and Pro Tools.
3) Starting Pro Tools will generate MTC, which will trigger Performer.

DSP code was too slow to keep up - could be caused by video capture cards on the same bus. Try moving other PCI cards (video,SCSI) or using fewer tracks.
- This error can also come up if the "ATI Driver Update" extension is installed. Try removing it and rebooting the Mac.
- Try increasing DAE playback buffer size to 4 or 8.

CPU is too slow to keep up - likely caused by old disk drivers (get recommended ATTO, FWB, Anubis, etc. drivers)
The very first thing to try is increasing your HW buffer size in the playback engine dialog.
