Re: Help! ProTools 5.1.3 on MacOS 9
Also the less known DigiSetup file which holds i/o setup, but does not apply in this supposedly hardware related issue

Re: Help! ProTools 5.1.3 on MacOS 9
Assuming this works the same way? Delete (or move elsewhere) the file and DAE ends up wanting to have you re-configure the I/O?

Yes, setup files are recreated if they are missing

Re: Help! ProTools 5.1.3 on MacOS 9
My old Mix+ system was on a Power Mac 9600, sold the Mix cards on eBay while the getting was good, still got the 9600 around here somewhere. For SD2 files Rail Jon Rogut still has his SD2 to Wav converter for free HERE.
PS. I recently found my old Audiomedia III card which will run on PTLE and I'm actually downloading PTLE 6.2.3, not sure if it works though as I can't find my LE authorization code. Might be able to convert his sessions with it. Also able to download PTLE 5.1.1 for OS9, the old Digidesign support pages are alive & well. Gonna search my backups and see if I can find the authorization codes for PTLE to check it out.

Re: Help! ProTools 5.1.3 on MacOS 9
So the new cards are in the system and the hardware seems happy. Interestingly after pulling out and re-seating the old cards, they also seemed happier, but now we're running into a new issue I could use some insight into...
On this system he has the internal SCSI "audio disk", and also an external 300 gig disk that is connected via firewire. I believe that before the crash, he would typically keep his audio sessions and data on the external 300 gig drive, and there was enough throughput there that everything worked fine. Now, with either set of cards, he keeps getting DAE error messages about "Your disk may be too slow or too fragmented". This happens on both the internal SCSI audio disk, and also the external firewire disk. He does report that "smaller sessions with fewer tracks do seem to play okay"... and that it's mostly larger, more recent sessions that are unable to play. Is there an obvious configuration issue that might cause this to happen? At some point the larger sessions on both of those disks were able to play successfully. Could disk fragmentation really be the issue? He mentioned something about possibly having an old copy of DiskWarrior... but neither of us want to mess with that unless fragmentation truly is likely to be a source of problems. Advice would be highly appreciated... |

Re: Help! ProTools 5.1.3 on MacOS 9
At times of OS9 we used to use both disks with round robin allocation

Move half of the files to another drive, then relink

I think I can talk him through that. I'll give it a shot.
