Default Re: Missing Fade files become missing audio files?

Hi Tim,

Can you give me a bit more information about the Import Session Data step in this recipe?

I'm particularly interested in:

1) whether the source and destination sessions were at the same sample rate;
2) whether you chose to copy audio media during the import; and
3) whether there were pending fade creation tasks in the source session.

The best way to rid the session of offline fades is to open the Project Browser. All audio files used by the session (both regular audio files and fade files) are listed there. You can choose to clear/delete files from the session via the command popup.

You may see an unfamiliar category in the Project Browser - "Render Sources". These are files that are referenced by the session, not because they are used in the timeline, but because they provide the source data for an incomplete copy or sample rate conversion operation. I think what may be happening is that there is a collision between two methods of recreating the missing fades: the completion of a pending copy or conversion operation, and regeneration from the contributor audio files.

Thanks for helping us track this issue.

- Kris
