File Corrupted on Import PT 2018-12
Strange occurrence. . . I was creating a test session on a new system I am working with. I imported a stereo audio file to a track from a Google File stream folder. When the file imported it had audio for the first 30 seconds, and the next 3 minutes were blank. It was a mastered audio file from a project and was fine in the past. I looked at the file in Finder and the file date had changed to current time and I played it with another tool and it was blank as displayed in Pro Tools. I grabbed a backup of the file and it was fine.
How does importing an audio file into Pro Tools mess up the source file?
This has me nervous. . . I have never experienced this before, and I am not exactly a newbie. . . what if something critical got corrupted and I didn't notice, etc. . .
Anyone else seen this behaviour, know the cause or remedy to prevent?
Thanks!
