Hi!
My 2009 mac pro is groaning a bit lately. I had a kernel panic which I haven't had for quite a while.
I've done first aid on all my drives and partitions and I'm thinking maybe something to hunt out some junk and duplicated files might help.
Any users with recommendations out there?
Any one using a mac cleaner?

Re: Any one using a mac cleaner?
I would definitely recommend a clean re-install (and maybe replace your hdd with an sdd if you haven't done so already).
Although those mac cleaners seem an easy way out, there's just too much info and useless files that accumulate over the years that are difficult for any software to recognize.

Hi, Krakoukask. It's running okay. I definitely don't want the hassle of a clean reinstall.Unread post by Krakoukask » Tue Jul 07, 2020 7:22 pm

I'm recording to a platter drive and streaming samples and the OS off SSDs on a PCI bus.
I had a few too many VI.s and cpu intensive plugins open. The other contributing factor I think was a Pro tools 11/ el capitan bug I get when editing midi across two computer screens which crashes Pro tools for me.
Thanks for the reply though.
