hi im having problems in a studio which has upgraded
from acid 2 to 3 my songs and files files were made
in v 2.0 and ran with a full 8 effects and up to 45 tracks on my home machine and also my laptop (with only
64 meg of ram and 300mhz) yet on the studio machine
with 1.5 gig of ram and 1.7 gig chip acid 3.0 locks up in solo mode and freezes during rendering others have
had this problem on their own machines the studio manager has told me i was able to go home and collect my my own cpu and therefore finish but it is a costly
process i was about to upgrade as eq and compression
on each channel were the only upgrade 2.o needed
so they add the video yet the music side is still
buggy! please sort it; or does any one out there have a solution please why does lock up in solo
also could sonic foundry post a topic listing all known issues (if they already dont )as this would make
it easy to run down a list and check off problems and
possible fixes thank you

Try opening another ACID window and copying and pasting the entire project into the new ACID window.

I've had similar things happen to projects I've created in 2. Using the above method usually works. However, none of the effects get copied over (but envelopes do), so duly note what you had for effects as you'll have to reset them (unless someone can suggest something as I haven't had the time to play around).

HTH,

thanx for replying , i have tried that but
and it does work until you put the fx back in ,the
problem then comes back
i think the problem may fx based as i can load
all files but when i reach 30 or four fx the problems
begin i tried using just sonic foundrys fx and it still
happens (that would have been pretty limiting
anyway ) most of my songs have 30 + tracks
and 8 fx so im afraid im going to have stay with
2.0 until some one at sf trys to explain it
the rendering i find even wierder as although
it crashed the system a finished render i later discovered was in folder after reboot
that was on a studio machine ive now dowloaded
the same version 3.0c and ran the demo on my own
machine and i get the same problems with one adittion
if one or more tracks are muted i get the :unable
to run time out blah blah etc explain that!
thank u again for your reply

Have you tried also reinstalling DirectX 8.0a and the DX video update as well? I've heard through the grapevine that installing the latest ACID 3 build can actually hose your DX installation. (I trust that'll be fixed though.)

acid 3.0 still totally bugged i give up! sound forge 5.0 should
also be renamed a minimum 0f 2.0 what rubbish
ogg vorbis indeed .it does less than 4.5 in real terms
and mixing vegas 1 and acid 2 in code should not
have been this difficult because that is all that has
happened really with acid 3.0 so sf grow up ive grown
weary at least wavelab speaks to my sampler QUICKLEY
