This error generally refers to a corrupt session file. Create a New Session and use the File>Import Tracks command to move the data into the new file.

Do you have any backups of the session that open without posting the error?

If so, you can probably transfer the audio tracks from the most recent session file (the one posting the error) and use the older version to transfer the MIDI tracks into a new session.

tnx brent

I don't have an older backup of the session (to bad) I tried to import only the midi or only the audio tracks they both don't work, the only thing I can do is grab audiofiles out of the audio-folder [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img]
