Acid Crashes at Track Properties Window -ACID Product Family

Subject:Acid Crashes at Track Properties Window Posted by: cif28 Date:10/9/2003 9:49:36 PM Hi, I figured out that right clicking the track brings up this window with a "properties" option that takes you to the beatmapper. I used it with a vocal track--I'm not sure if you can say the vocal track has a beat though, maybe that's why it keeps crashing. This track properties window will play the track in the general tap, but not in the beatmapper tab--that's when it crashes. It also crashes if I press stop while the song is playing. The error message says: An error occurred during the current operation. An exception has occurred. It's enough to drive a novice crazy!! I just want to play with the track's tempo. Please help if you have advice. Thanks. -C

Subject:RE: Acid Crashes at Track Properties Window Reply by: cif28 Date:10/12/2003 9:41:00 PM Hi, Thanks for all your help to both of you!! I'm using version 4.0. There's no "E" after it on the product. Also, fyi, I re-downloaded the backing that was playing at a bad tempo and lo and behold (after I did NOT beatmap it), the backing then played at its normal tempo and sounded very good with the vocals. So all I had to do was re-download the backing. What a shocker and a relief! I'll try re-installing acid soon and will load the updates--which I haven't done at all ever. Thanks so much. Marc you're especially generous and helpful on this forum. Thank you for being so giving and helpful!! : ) -C

(The latest is ACID Pro 4.0e Build 408.) You can pick up the update here. Note that the update can either act as a patch to your existing version, or act as a standalone installation all by itself (which explains its rather hefty 36.6 MB file size). If you ever need to completely uninstall ACID and then reinstall, just install the update. HTH, Iacobus ------- RodelWorks - Original Music for the Unafraid mD's ACIDplanet Page
