Play/Edit Marker stopped following the timeline selection
If anyone can help me with this one, I would be very grateful.
In the middle of editing a session, suddenly the play/start marker no longer follows my timeline selection. I have the corresponding box checked in the "Operation" preferences (as it was previously as well), but it makes no difference. The symptoms are the following. It doesn't matter where I place the cursor. Playback begins at another place (the place where the cursor was when the behavior began). Interestingly enough, after I stop playback, the cursor blinks at the place where I was trying to place it. But playback is always at the other location. The only way I have found to move the playback point is to use the |<, <<, >>, and >>| transport buttons. I assume that while editing, I hit some key sequence that either put PT in some different mode that I haven't noticed or changed some preference that I can't locate. I have tried exiting and restarting ProTools, creating a new session and importing my session data and tracks over to the new session, etc, in the hopes that I can create a session that behaves the way it was behaving prior to a half hour ago, but no luck. It seems to be a setting that has changed for PT as a whole instead of the one session. Any help is greatly appreciated as I can't make any progress on the session in its current state. Thanks. |

Re: Play/Edit Marker stopped following the timeline selection
Never mind. I figured it out just now, by pouring over the reference guide with a little bit of luck, I think. I somehow managed to deselect "Link Timeline and Edit Selection" in the Options menu.
As a side note to Digi, this would be better off as a preference item rather than a pull-down menu item. I'm not sure why it isn't in the Operation preferences with the rest of the playback marker options. I'm not sure why anyone would want to change this on a regular basis. |
