TimeStamp Issues.....
Hi. I've got a bit of a problem. I am trying to restore a session from years ago that an engineer backed up for me around 1998 or so. The problem is, i do not have the original PT File, just the audio. Since some liberal truncation was done in an effort to save disk space (this was the 90's!!), I need to import the audio files to the original user time stamp. However when i go to spot mode, this optioin is unavailable, it says that is is "Out of Range", is this because this function was not yet supported in earlier versions of PT? Or do i have to adjust the smpte start time? Or what? Any hints would greatly be appreciated .... THANKS!!!!

Re: TimeStamp Issues.....
Drop the file onto the timeline, and use the option to show the original timestamp.
That should give you an idea where to start your session. |
Re: TimeStamp Issues.....
thanks, i tried, i drag the audio file from the region list, and it still says out of range on both. I opened up a session from the same studio that had the protools file, thinking that the time code would have same approximate starts, but to no avail... when i started the time code far later, it gave all the files an original time stamp of 540 hours, which i assume is inccorrect, as all files have that same start..... any other ideas? i appreciate it!

Re: TimeStamp Issues.....
Either your session start time is later than the time stamps.. or the files were sd2 files and have had their resource forks stripped.

Re: TimeStamp Issues.....
Yeah I fear theforks are lost, I have heard SoundHack can recover these, anyone have any luck with this? or are there any known apps that can recover this data or is it irretrievable?
thanks again.... |
Re: TimeStamp Issues.....
The time stamps will be irretrievable.
