How about hiring a dowser and have your rooms checked for bad cosmic influences,
or simply get yourself a properly set up computer rig?
What you tell us is, you have a compromised and faulty DAW machine.
How else it can be that the majority of users work happily in a wide area of jobs
and produce films, CDs, ads, game-sounds… to the best quality in astonishing complexity,
flexibility and scope. Nobody could do this with the beaten-up software you describe.
I would appeciate if you could rephrase your complaints into: “it does not work - on my system”
and not shout out loud the obvious wrong. My rig has proven rock solid with 5.5 for months, now.
What are you doing wrong?? Find out, fix it and enjoy…
