The Virtual Tracks were removed from Pyramix 7.0. It is no longer possible for users to create

them. Note that they are still supported when coming from older projects. As a replacement we

recommend the use of the Automation Sub-Tracks from now on.



Libraries: Search Results created with the 7.0SP1 version have been corrupted due to an internal

bug. You need to purge all search results created with version SP1 either by completely deleting

the Search_Results_.pml file OR by deleting the corresponding folders in the search result view



Changing project sampling rate 1FS/DSD/DXD within the same Pyramix session can at times

cause problems (Mixer stuck at wrong sampling rate). Workaround: launch back Pyramix.



Final Check Metering: When running MassCore on more than one core, it is possible (though not

always the case) that Final Check cannot monitor certain bus/stem (No metering, but it works

again when selecting another bus)

• Workaround 1: Do not use final check with more than one core.

• Workaround 2: Add an effect (any effect will do, but you may prefer to pick one that

doesn’t modify the sound: phase oscillo, surround monitor…) on the bus that final

check doesn’t want to monitor.

Low Memory Condition Warning:

A warning informs users when the system is reaching Low Memory Conditions. In order to

save a project under such conditions Pyramix will switch to Save to Disk mode as not enough

memory might be available otherwise. This warning was added in order to prevent a Runtime

Error on Save.

Note that the Save time in Save to Disk mode in Low Memory Condition might take a longer

time since the memory is being dumped to disk in order to allow the users to save their

projects. We recommend afterwards to exit and restart Pyramix in order to free all memory.

This Low Memory warning threshold can be adjusted by the user if one wishes it to come

earlier or later. With every systems and workflows being different, Merging leave you the

ability to adjust when the Warning will show up.

Procedure:

• Close Pyramix

• Type regedt32 in the run command

• In the registry go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Merging

Technologies\Pyramix\Settings\Save to disk threshold (this key will only appear if at

least one save was made using that version)

• Default value in Decimal mode has been set to 15

- The higher the value is set, the earlier the Low Memory warning will come

- The lower the value is set, the riskier it is for you to encounter a Runtime Error at

save (previous Pyramix versions value would have had this value set to 0)

Merging with this Pyramix v7.0 version has significantly reduced the memory consumption of

Pyramix when confronted with the task of loading enormous libraries. For the long term, the

move of our applications to a 64 bit operating system will provide a very solid platform to

accommodate the ever growing project size requirements of some of our users.
