We’re working vocals and keys in this round of rehearsals (at home), to be recorded in studio later.
Ah, I see, I thought you were just tracking vocals. Wish I could be of more help, Best of luck though!
Thanks! The process is everything. ;-)

You might have luck if you break the record process down into multiple steps. Try bouncing down all you background tracks with the VIs so you’re left with a stereo or even a mono track. Create a new session, import your bounced audio and record your vocal (s) to this session. After the vocals are recorded you have a choice of finishing in the new session if your bounce mix was what you want on the final or import the vocal track back into your original session to finish there.

Thanks. That’s easy to follow. We’ll add it to the list.

I use a lot of old gear with my PT setup and that can cause a lot of oddball issues at times. Sometimes it’s necessary to come up with work arounds that bypass the normal PT work flow or typical support solutions Avid provides since PT can be really temperamental, especially with MIDI and some plugins.

So what's your take on upgrading the OS?

I'm facing that dilemma myself right now. I'm still on Catalina with PT Ultimate 2022.12 and I really would like to update to Big Sur, maybe Monterey. But I'm in the middle of a project so like others advised you here, I'm waiting to finish.
I would try to work around your issues and finish your project. Look through the DUC for any posts that deal with the issues you're having and see if you can find a solution or a work around like I mentioned. If you can't complete your work, I'd do a complete backup of your MBP and project and then try an OS update. If that doesn't work out you can restore your previous OS and PT session data and all you'll be losing is the time required for the swapping. Another thing I do is to create a bootable external clone of my system, make sure it works and then do the upgrade to the Mac. Redundency is always worthwhile if you can manage to create a clone of the old system.
