It seemed like a first time anomaly for me. I posted a tech link about it. Magic Dave answered and said there was no problem. And I never saw it again. Magic. Obi-Wan.

Magic Dave: "You do not see a problem there. That's not the problem you thought it was..."
Me: "That's not the problem I thought it was..."

:lol:

Well, in any case, it really was not a problem. But... SOMETHING was, just for once or twice.

Yes, something like that. I remember lots of sand ...

Everything working as expected here. Can't reproduce the problem.

I've seen something like this in DP 8.06
I have an ALL MIDI project (built from "empty" template), within the project's folder there is an Audio Files folder. Why? I have no idea. BUT, there's an Audio Files folder in the parent folder with the EXACT SAME timestamp.
Looking at the auto saves, this timestamp occurs somewhere between two of them (perhaps I manually saved).

My questions are:
1) why would there ever be an Audio Files folder in a MIDI only project
2) more troubling, why would that same folder be present in the project's parent folder.

I have other MIDI ONLY projects without Audio Files folders.
