Woah! I had a very disturbing situation last night. I was recording 3 tracks (bass, keys, and vocals). It was a long session - we did 16 songs). On or about song number 10 we had a bad start and I selected all the soundbites in the soundbite window and deleted them. I then recorded the next take and when I hit Stop, a window pops up and says that an error occurred and the file could not be saved because the folder already exists. The waveforms that were in the sequence editor immediately disappeared and there were no audio files in the project folder. Poof, gone. Aaaaaagh!!!!
No more 5.1.2 for me. I gonna wait and see what 5.1.3 brings.

Hey! Who are you calling a pig, monkey! :roll:

Yeah, I hear ya. Read my previous post. I'm sticking with 5.1.1 until MOTU gets their poop in a group. 5.1.3? Just around the corner. 8)

Don't you just HATE it when two people are typing at the same time?

I'm used to it; you oughta try type-sitting with 99 others.
It's enough to make you want to quit proving the law of large numbers altogether.

Besides, the pay sucks: 1 banana per sonnet.
Nobody's been paid yet, and we've been working at this thing since 1953. :shock:
