Pre-Roll / Post-Roll - Not working!
Hello,
So the first night I sat down in front of PT9, I could not get the pre/post roll to work. The buttons were illuminated, and I saw the pre/post roll markers appear. But every time I hit play or record, it always started where the cursor was - and ignored the pre/post roll values. I made the jump from PT 7.3, so if there is something I am totally missing, I apologize. But I've never had to do anything but enable the pre/post roll for it to work - now there seems to be no way to get it to work. Is anybody else having this issue? I found a few mentions in the search results, but no definite information. Thanks, gee/lo |

Is no one else having this problem? I can barely get through a session without this problem totally screwing up my workflow.
It would be great to hear if pre/post roll is working normally for everyone else. Anyone???? |

I think you might have selected "insertion follows playback" its the icon under the pencil tool. Its also the N key which can often get hit my mistake if using the space bar to stop start PT Chris

Re: Pre-Roll / Post-Roll - Not working!
Thanks for the reply crizdee, but that wasn't the problem. I am familiar with the "insertion follows playback" option - and even with that checked/unchecked - pre/post roll should still work.
I learned in another post that it was the "Dynamic Transport" option that needed to be UNchecked - then ALL my problems went away. Now I need to go read the manual to find out what that options does besides make me frustrated! Thanks gee_lo |

Re: Pre-Roll / Post-Roll - Not working!
Thankyou heaps guys. I was having the same problem and wasted about 3 hours trying to get preroll working to no avail today. Since I updated my protools to 8 (from 7.x) I keep finding lots of complicated little things like this that waste my time and are dependant on one little setting somewhere that you have to seek out and find and interrupt my workflow. Is 9 any better? Cheers and thanks...

When you ask if "9 is any better".. well, ...... from your perspective it is probably not, as there are more new features. But from your perspective I would recommend that you stay with 7, and not "waste your time" learning the software. jeeezzzzzussss... ff |

Re: Pre-Roll / Post-Roll - Not working!
Pre/Post roll is set to 0/00/000 by default, so when you enable it, you also need to enter the amount of pre/post roll.

Or, option+click in the edit window where you want pre-roll to start and post-roll to end.
