I was in middle of recording when my g4 got "stuck" and I had to restart. I had saved a couple of times while recording was in process... I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but I also tried renaming the session while recording. When I restarted, the original session was balnk (no audio files), but in the audio file folder I can still see the files. I tried importing them and it says PT cant read the files. I've also tried using differemt audio programs to open or listen and none can read them. The "lost" files take up 3Gig of space, so it seems that they are there. I've also repaired all disks, etc... still nothing.
Can anyone pleae help me figure out how to get these traks back... (it was a live concert recording so re-tracking it is not an option...) Thanks |

I don't have suggestions on saving the files, but I have learned NEVER to re-name the folder or project once you record it. PT has a hard time finding the files again...
Create a folder before beginning a project, and stick with that name. Johnny |
