All my old sessions using Mach 5 v1, and their associated presets, won't load in Pro Tools 8.

I understand only supporting Mach 5 v2 in Pro Tools 8 (Mach 5 v1 no longer 'shows up' in PT 8 ), but what about all those old sessions using Mach 5 v1!? Jeez, I can't remember what presets I was using in those 300 odd sessions.

Does anyone know a way just see what those presets and their MIDI channel assignments were so they can be rebuilt in Mach 5 v2?

Does MOTU have any plans to add Mach 5 v1 load capability to Mach 5 v2?

Thanks in advance.

For anyone following along, the work around I chose was to create a Tiger boot drive and install PT HD 7.x. I can then open the older sessions and save the Mach 5 instances presets as a Performance, which can then be opened in Mach 5 v2 in Pro Tools 8.

Btw, as far as the PT 8 issues go Tech Support replied;

We are aware of the performance issues with MachFive 2 in Pro Tools 8. We are hoping to address this behavior with a future update.
