Soundminer
This is a weird one... Of the 300,000 or so sounds in Soundminer, I have one set of sounds that show up, but won't audition. I can transfer them to Pro Tools just fine, but they won't play in SM. I've tried deleting the sounds from the database and then reimporting them. I can successfully play them directly in Quick Time. They are sounds I recorded some years ago, and use to work just fine in SM. Any ideas?

Re: Soundminer
Did you try to mirror those files with the Soundminer (to .WAV) files and then add them to the database?

Re: Soundminer
I would delete the entire database. Create a new one, and rescan all your sounds. It doesn't take all that long. I've had to do it and I also have 100's of thousands of sounds.

Re: Soundminer
Have you asked Justin about it directly?
I'm sure he could solve it for you Mike.

Re: Soundminer
I had the exact same issue with one sound file. Justin confirmed that it was a a bug. I think an update to the latest beta solved it.

Re: Soundminer resolved
It turns out that the channel layout setting on those files had been changed to s. Once I deleted the s setting to blank, they worked fine. How they got that way I have no idea! Thanks everyone for your suggestions.
