I also scrub with the ProjectMix, and haven't had a crash. My Tranzport works
well, also.
I'm, of course, using the most recent versions of everything.

Subject: [ddots-l] Update on crashes when scrubbing with the Tranzport
Hi guys,
I promised a while back that I'd update folks who use the Tranzport
concerning random system crashes when scrubbing.
As you know, those of us using this device have been experiencing
random crashes in projects when going into Scrub Mode, and there doesn't appear
to be any obvious explanations as to why this happens. I've been in contact
with Tech Support at Frontier Design, and though the gentleman who's been
helping me with this situation has been very good about trying to come up with
a possible solution, he's been unable to resolve the problem. He ran various
scenarios on his end, but he was unable to crash his system. Unfortunately he
doesn't have JAWS and CakeTalking running, which might provide some insight if
he did. Nevertheless he was good about letting me know that because he didn't
have that additional software running that he obviously wouldn't be able to
duplicate the exact conditions.
Having said that, my thoughts on this is that perhaps there's too much
going on with resources being used between Sonar, JAWS, and CakeTalking when
you start scrubbing with the Tranzport. I've found that even if I freeze
tracks, I still experience crashes now and then; it doesn't seem to matter how
big the project is. I've got three gigs of ram on my computer, and it's a
pretty fast machine to boot.
So, to make a long story slightly shorter, I decided that I'm no longer
going to scrub with the Tranzport. I've gotten pretty good with using the scrub
feature in the clips pane, and I'm not crashing the machine in the process.
I'll still use the Tranzport to scroll back and forth in projects along with
other things as I don't have any problems doing that. It's really too bad as I
love this device. If there was a way to change the size of the scrub buffer on
the Tranzport, perhaps that would clear up some things. I figured out that I
can adjust how much scrubbing occurs by zooming in so I can be on the money
with my editing. I can display as much or as little audio as I need to suit
what I'm doing in a project.
So there ya have it! If anybody else has any other ideas on this, I'd
be interested in what you're doing to deal with this quirk. Otherwise I guess
the best approach is to scrub with the features in CakeTalking.
Have a good one.
Mike
