This started out as a HUI comunication issue but has evolved into an apparent (for me anyway) Digitranslator bug. This crash happens when Importing tracks from an OMF (they average about 20 to 30 meg) with embeded media. I can crash EVERY TIME when I use a "stationary pad" Pt's session to start out. Here's what I do: Create a template session (I did a new one for this test with no tracks in it). Then I close PT's make that session a "stationary Pad" re-open THAT stationary pad session, select "New Session". Then try and import ANY OMF into that session and PT's crashes (spontaneously quits-no error) before the import is done. If I reopen the crashed session (not the notepad) I can then import the OMF without any trouble and all works well. My setup: Dual 1.25 Ghz G4 w/1.5 gig ram Mac OS 10.2.3 Mix/24 -Mix farm, D24, 2 vintage farms Emagic MT4 Midi I/O PT's 6.0.1 Tim
