what is DAE error -6001?

[buk50]

Working on an iMac, running OS 9.2, on a separate partician where I have installed ProTools Free.
I get this DAE error (-6001) every time when opening Protools Free. I click through it twice, then my session opens. Does anyone else, and do I need to change a setting, or something to make it go away.

The closest thing I could find in the Answerbase was DAE error -6008 which is a low memory error. How much RAM do you have?

The iMac I'm using has 386Mb of RAM. I've checked the preferred memory for DAE and ProTools and it is set to default settings. It hasn't happened in a while, so I'm OK for now. Thanks for your input.

That should be enough physical RAM. You might try bumping up the preferred memory setting on PTF & DAE. Just make sure you leave enough headroom for the system, and any other apps you might want open simultaniously, and don't change the minimum settings.

I found this with a search: "DAE was unable to communicate with the audio hardware -6001"

Make sure your sound control panel settings are set up correctly.
