: If you are using a G4 to run Pro Tools you must have only 1 DSP farm, at most. This leads me back to the tape question? But I digress. : My thought is that it is a software problem much like Apple's DVD player has on the G4s. : Here is the fix for the DVD synch problem. : get Mac OS 9.0.4 and DVD Player 2.2 from Apples web site. Then Download the latest version of Quicktime 4.whatever. All this stuff has files that fix Apples OS 9 troubles. : : First off, I'm no expert. I did use Premire 5.1 and ProTools for a year or two doing video game development and here is what I learned. : : Premire 5.1 was buggy as hell in the worst places, places you didn't notice till it was too late. For instance, when I did a cut or a cross fade on two audio tracks I would get a perfect little pop at the edit point. A perfect digital plateau in the wav form. I also had synch problems, but not as noticable as yours. : : Premire does have a bug fix download (5.12 or something like that) It fixed the audio edit problem at least. : : Second, you say he digitized a tape?! What kind of tape? Really, a tape, or did you mean a track? If it really was a tape, Digi Beta or what ever, how did you get it from the tape to ProTools? ADAT? : : Anyway I forwarded the question to a buddy who is a Pro at this shit. : : CHAD : : P.S. I'm in N.Y. and would be willing to help out via phone or in person or whatever. Consider it pay back for all the great movies. : : : Okay, so we're here in the VA offices and we're having some sync : : : problems with Scott's Pro-Tools system. Earlier today, Phil Benson : : : from Skywalker digitized a tape using Adobe Premiere 5.1, and for : : : whatever reason, we've been unable to get the soundtrack to the : : : video sync up on the Pro-Tools. The sound is at 48K at 29.97 with : : : pull-down checked on- the weird thing is, when we scrub the track : : : using shuttle mode or scrub or if you locate any footage, the video : : : window burn and the ProTools counter are exactly in sync- however, : : : if you hit play using the spacebar or shuttle zero, the audio and : : : counter are out of sync, and it gets progressively worse the later you : : : start into the session. We're at a loss here as to explain what's going : : : on here- any tech heads out there have any possible explanations? : : : The folks at Digi-Design haven't been able to give us an answer yet. : : : Oh, and FLETCH WON, right? : : : Vincent
