Thanks Matt and Chuck, Chuck, you must have kids, because your a good pinch of goodness for a young PT user like me. Matt, I am going to start getting into the play list functions. I have the same guy comming back tonight so it didn't seem to faze him at all. ----- Original Message ----- From: CHUCK REICHEL To: ptaccess@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2013 9:26 AM Subject: Re: Lost a track in a paid session yesterday
Hi Poppa, Look in your "Session File Backups folder" in your session folder for that session you spoke about. theres probably 20 or 30 saves that were automatically generated just sitting there. Heres my method for tracking;; "only have the tracks your recording showing"! This keeps you out of hot water! :) I also save as and rename every big step of the project like my first session would be m1 then vocal tracking would be m2 then m3 then m4 and so on. At any point in the project I could go back to m1 or m2 or m3 of the pt sessions that I chose " Save as" and and grab what got misplaced by "importing session data" Always remember the eleventh commandment! Thow shalt save! as YMMV CHUCK REICHEL soundpicturerecord...@gmail.com www.SoundPictureRecording.com 954-742-0019 GUFFAWING :) In GOD I Trust On Oct 1, 2013, at 1:08 PM, Poppa Bear wrote: Hey folks, I had a pretty good 3 hour session yesterday, but at some point I went to clear a track, but accidentally had two tracks selected so I lost a good vocal take and didn't notice it in time to just do a typical undo function. How would I start thinking about how to retrieve tracks back in situations like this? In Sonar there is a history of changes to go into in order to undo stuff like this even if you have made other changes. I have not got into the play list stuff much, but I am wondering if it is the direction I need to start heading in. In my sessions it is normally good take or bad take and we just keep it, or redue it, most clients I have had haven't cared about tying peaces of good takes together to get the best of all the takes, but I would still like to get a better handle on this so I can block up that chink in my armor.
