Subject:SonyJWF...looky here. Posted by: MyST Date:1/19/2005 3:39:21 PM Sorry, it's been awhile since your post in the "3 problems with Acid" thread. Long enough that I figure I better start a new thread. Here's what I've noticed regarding non-Acidized loop previews. They play back fine in Acid's Explorer. If I switch to MM, they all play except maybe 1 or 2. If I close Acid and re-open, and I preview from MM first, it's more like 5-6 that don't preview. It's never the same one, and if I skip to the next one and come back, it'll play. When I say that a loop doesn't preview, what I mean is that there is a fraction of a second that plays, and it stops. Like a blip sound. If you'd like me to upload my loops (56 zipped loops, 15 megs) to your ftp site, let me know. I'd picked up a Giga Sound Pack from Micro Application when I had Acid 2.0. Mario

Reply by: knowbody Date:1/20/2005 5:28:29 AM Yes, I've experienced the blip which is disconcerting - sometimes it's difficult to work out if the whole loop has been played or just a bit of it.. Sometimes I need to preview a track 3-4 times before it will play completely. Chris

Subject:RE: SonyJWF...looky here. Reply by: MyST Date:1/22/2005 5:59:27 AM I'd like to try something on my end. I've never done this, so forgive me if it seems basic. How can I batch Acidize wave files? I'd like to Acidize the files I supplied to Sony, and see if that cures the problem. Ideally, I could Acidize them all in one shot. Any ideas? Mario EDIT: I have Sound Forge, AP 5, Vegas, and Batch Converter 5. Didn't see anything in BC5 that could accomplish this.
Subject:RE: SonyJWF...looky here. Reply by: MyST Date:1/24/2005 4:48:26 PM OK... I read up on the batch Acidizing thing. Can't be done. So I Acidized the loops I sent Sony and tried previewing them again in MM. The ol' "tick" preview was still there. The odd loop would only give a tick sound when trying to preview. Thought I was onto something. Oh well. :-( Mario

Reply by: Rockitglider Date:1/24/2005 6:08:56 PM Hello, I have this problem too, it happens with auto preview turned on, and every 3 or 4 previews it'll stop and I have to click play manually then it will play the loop that stopped, so it's deffinately not the loops. See ya, Rockitglider

Sorry, it's been awhile since your post in the "3 problems with Acid" thread. Long enough that I figure I better start a new thread.

Here's what I've noticed regarding non-Acidized loop previews.
They play back fine in Acid's Explorer. If I switch to MM, they all play except maybe 1 or 2.
If I close Acid and re-open, and I preview from MM first, it's more like 5-6 that don't preview. It's never the same one, and if I skip to the next one and come back, it'll play.

When I say that a loop doesn't preview, what I mean is that there is a fraction of a second that plays, and it stops. Like a blip sound.
