error - 199 -6027 again

[digigirly]

PT 5.1 OS 9.2
14 tracks ATA 7200RPM. MDD dual 1.25 ghz
of course, replacing DAE etc, solves the problem.
But after half an hour of playing, again same problem.
NO plugins inserted

[digigirly]

Basic system extension, monitor colors set at thousand , etc.......
No printer connected.
Well , there's nothing more I can think about .
help please

[digigirly]

Any idea, I'm desperate.
I even installed a brand new WDC caviar 120G as audio drive .

[digigirly]

It occurs mostly when I'm in record ready mode (1 track !)

I even installed a brandnew WDC caviar 120G.
There is one session on it about 18 tracks.
Errors pop up, if I am in record ready mode, 1 track.

Use 5.1.1 and OS9.2.2

[digigirly]

Tweakhead, I DO !!!

Did you remember to disable one of your processors in OS9?

I suppose you read the following post from DigiTech in the duc search

>>Hello,

This error (DAE -199) is generally caused by a corrupted DAE. Delete DAE from the System Folder>DAE Folder then drag and drop a fresh copy from the Pro Tools CD ROM. In addition, trash the DigiSetup File, Pro Tools preference, and DAE prefs (the entire folder) from the System Folder>Preferences folder. Empty the Trash and restart the Mac.

A couple of things have sprung to my mind that might help (sorry if you've been through this before) :

Also have you tried putting a fixed value (like 8 minutes for example in the preferences for the open ended record time ? In particular if you formatted drives in HFS+
This is because HFS + strains system much more than good ol' HFS (no plus).
- Is your track disc allocation right (ie not allocated to the system drive while reading from the audio drive), can happen sometimes (made me go crazy once...)

- Have you tried different values of DAE buffer ? If you want to test this intensively you can take your plugs out from the plugin folder (apart from the mixer plug) so as to speed up quitting and reloading PT

- Have you tried changing the file format ? (from .wav to SDII for example

- have you tried a firewire drive for audio ? I have found that even on a "old" G4 AGP 450, the firewire management with new firmware and OS 9.2.2 was just amazing. I could read sessions on one drive that need to be spread on two drives with SCSI. Only snag is a little more inertia on play stop etc

Hope you get out of this soon
good luck
