Getting time stamp from DP3 SDII files?

[Nash BBQ]

I imported the files ok, but need to sync them up. Also, I'll need to make the sure the vocals I record in PTle will be "syncable" to the original tracks back in DP3. I read here that I can download a SMPTE template, but "spot" mode doesn't work, so will the tracks still say "out of range" in the timestamp area?
Make sense? Track band into DP3, overdubs at my studio in PTle, then give back to other engineer to mix in DP3.
Please lend me your knowledge...thanks.

You don't need to use SMPTE to use spot mode. Make sure when in DP you set user time stamps to your soundbites under the Audio menu. Then in Protools using just normal time (mins & secs) go into spot mode and drag the regions you imported onto a track. The spot dialog will appear with two sections in the bottom that show original and user time stamp. Click the arrow after the user time stamp and him Okay. The region will pop right over to where it belongs.

Thanks...my problem was that my clock started at 1hr and his was at zero. Therefore, it was "out of range." Went into 'windows' to 'session setup' and set it to zero. FIXED! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
