I Need a 'Hotkey' to Jump to a Region

Please forgive this post to Protools 9, but it's the closest one to my version of ProTools, which is Protools 8. I have a huge audio record of sentences spoken by a hearing child of deaf parents...

Re: Sound from Pro Tool is unpredictable

The list of things to try was so long and painful to go through that I figured I'd pay for support first, but the tech guy did nothing but reset the I/O parameters, which didn't help. So I bit the...

Playback Stops Working After Sitting Idle

Whenever I load a PTF file into ProTools 8, it works fine at first, and - based on recent memory at least - it continues to work fine as long as I keep doing things in Pro Tools. However, if I let it...

Re: Sound from Pro Tool is unpredictable

Thanks, but I don't understand most of what you said. Were you saying that my computer was trying to go to sleep and was prevented from doing so by Pro Tools? As it happens, my Power Managment is...

Sound from Pro Tool is unpredictable

Sometimes, when I open a PTF file, it produces no sound. Other PTF files play moments later, so it's nothing having do with my computer, how it's configured in, what's plugged in or not plugged in,...

Re: DAE 9073 Error (Disk too slow) Error

It turns out that if I put the .wav file on my sole USB 3.0 external hard drive, the offending PTF runs fine on another Win 7 desktop PC I have (which lacks a USB 3.0 port and whose chip is not a...

Re: DAE 9073 Error (Disk too slow) Error

Do you happen to know if Reaper can read existing PTF files? I'm 2/3 done with this particular one, and I'd had to lose all my work. Plus there's many years of previous PDF files I've prepared and...

Re: DAE 9073 Error (Disk too slow) Error

I don't GOTTA have a laptop - it's just that my laptop is the only computer I have that's modern enough to have a USB 3.0 port. Fortunately, it doesn't run on a Celeron. How do its Sandra specs...

Thanks for the info about the slow HD - I have indeed been using that one only for backup, but tried it today for this problem in ignorance of its speed.

I also discovered that I possess a USB...

Pro Tools 'Stuck' On a Region

It worked fine all day yesterday, and now my Pro Tools (version 8, 64-bit Windows 7) opens stuck on the most-recently selected region. Of course it's normal for that region to be selected when Pro...

Re: Any Way to Label Positions w/o Using Regions?

Since I know I can be verbose, let me summarize quickly before explaining: I need a way to mark positions in a tape I'm editing and assign labels to them.

Re: Cannot Install Pro Tools

Fortunately the great bulk of what I've had to do over the years (ever since the Digi001!) has involved a separate hard drive from the C drive on which Pro Tools itself was installed. There was lots...

Re: Cannot Install Pro Tools

There's no upgrade path from 8.04 to PT 11, so I'd have to pay $699; also their compatibility chart claims I'd need a dedicated disk for audio processing, which would be a real bummer since this is a...
