Hi Cara, For track selection and deselection at least in pt 9.3 on an HD 3 system, with Snow Leopard while in the mix window, the tracks table "must be" resized to the right about 30% for the tracks to behave normally. Thats why I operate from a template most of the time. After getting sighted assistance the first time, to resize the tracks table for the template track selection is consistent from session to session Un till you get over 45 to 50 tracks then it gets a bit weird!
If you look in the archives you will see the tracks table resizing thing come up periodically. As for the "showing tracks that are selected" this becomes a habit just like practicing scales! ;) Talk soon YMMV CHUCK REICHEL soundpicturerecord...@gmail.com www.SoundPictureRecording.com 954-742-0019 GUFFAWING :) In GOD I Trust On Jul 8, 2013, at 2:53 AM, Cara Quinn wrote: > Hi chuck, > > Yes, I have gotten into the habit right away of only showing tracks that are > selected. > > Actually I'm finding that I need to choose this option repeatedly after I > select new tracks as PT isn't updating the tracks which are shown > automatically. > > Also, yes, I will definitely document my experience with Beat Detective.
