instruments disappeared when re-opening
 

Hey all,

I'm on Windows 7, 64-bit, with 8 Gig of DDR3 RAM with Pro Tools 9 and an MBox 2. I have the latest version of Play (EastWest), with several of their libraries.

Here's the issue: I will load up an arbitrary number of Play instances (between 1 and 3) and load up any number of samples in each instance (between 1 and 9 per instance). Then, I will work on my project, save it, and close up for the night. Almost always, when I restart Pro Tools or even just close and re-open the session, all the samples I loaded into the instances of Play will have disappeared, and I will have to re-load them as well as re-set their settings and other things like onload extra unneeded samples of Keyswitch instruments.

When I have even 1 full instance of Play this is incredibly tedious. However, with 3 instances (in a project I am currently working on), it's unbearable.

I've deleted databases, etc. to no avail.

Any help will be appreciated!

Shooting from the hip here. I'd suggest contacting EastWest on this one. You are using the latest version of their plugin with a 9(?) year old version of Pro Tools:o Maybe they can get you an older version that might play nice with the older PT? Meanwhile, as a work around, maybe save each plugin(once samples are loaded) as a preset(which might make it easier to recover whenever things open up empty).

Another thought(grasping at straws): When you installed PLAY, did you ONLY install the RTAS version? Just wondering if maybe you have extra worthless stuff installed for AAX or VST that might be a contributing factor:o
