Soundtrack Pro 2.0.2 freezes on start :(

Hi,
I've got Logic Studio (all installed) and everything works except Soundtrack Pro. It crashes every time I launch it : (
My specs :
- Mac Pro 2.8 8-core
- OS 10.5.6
- All updates etc.
How to launch it without additional plugs ? (i tried changing the name of /.../plugins/components folder but still it recognizes all the plugs somehow 0_o
Please help

I was a bit confused by your opening post. In the title you said it freezes and in the body you said it crashed, which is different. If it was a crash (i.e. the program exits suddenly) then that makes things easier because there will be an error message. Go to /Applications/Utilities/Console to view the message.
I wonder if your issue is the same one I had when I first installed Logic:

URGENT- I need help: Soundtrack Pro Freezing Problem!!

I just sent my FCP project to a multitrack project in Soundtrack Pro, but when i want to work on the Soundtrack Pro project, everything keeps freezing. its dead slow!
i can barely do anything with it!
whats the problem? and how can i solve it?

Couple of possibilities. One, your media files are huge. STP reference the entire media of a clip edited in FCP . . . not just the edited portion. That can result in some large files being brought over. Also, when you send a clip over, use the base layer option if you can, or export an mp4 to bring in to STP.
If you're ready to do the post audio work on a finished FCP project, export an omf file. Close FCP, then open the omf file in STP. That can help.
Other "obvious" but still good to review considerations . . . have enough RAM? Is there enough disk space? Are you using a different media drive than where the system is located?

Soundtrack Pro crashes immediately after start

Hi,
I just installed the whole Logic Studio inc. Soundtrack Pro. All other components work fine, however the Soundtrack Pro (beast) does not want to start and crashes immediately. The following info is logged after each crash:

Having looked at the '/Library/....' content the Library, which should be loaded, is indeed not there.
I have already tried to re-install the whole Logic Studio and also re-checked the HD permissions - unfortunately with no further success.
Can someone help please?
Thanks.

I am happy to confirm that everything works now.
I have re-installed both Leopard and subsequently the whole Logic Studio, which resolved the issue. Obviously, something on the OS level blocked creating of the STP data structure. The 're-installation fun' took about 5 hours, but the result is worth it.
Good Luck.

Soundtrack Pro crashes every time!

Hello!
I've read that many people in here had problems when starting Sountrack Pro. I've just bought Logic Studio 8 and installed everything in the package. All seems to be working fine, but Soundtrack Pro crashes when I try to start the application. The main window appears on the screen, but then It freezes and I can't do anything until I force application to finish. I've reinstalled Soundtrack Pro, deleted the preferences, uninstalled Compressor and then reinstalled Soundtrack and Compressor... no one of this actions solved the problem. What can I do? I'm desperated! I'm using Leopard 10.5.2 and I've downloaded software updates.
Please help!

Oh my god! Finally I made it work!!
What I've done is this: Right click on the Soundtrack Pro icon at the Applications Folder, select Explore the package and search for the executable on the directories below. Then, execute that file, and then it will launch a terminal session while Soundtrack is initialiting. In the terminal window appears the message error that made Soundtrack Pro crash. In my case, there was a file from a plugin I uninstalled so long ago that was causing conflict with Soundtrack. I deleted it and then Soundtrack launched perfectly!
I'm so happy I think I could dance!

Media Disappears After Exporting to Soundtrack Pro

I have an HD project I'm working on that was shot on the HVX200. The files have been converted and imported into FCPS2 and the edit went fine. Then I tried to export the sequence to Soundtrack Pro for audio editing and clips started disappearing from the drive. The only solution I have found is to re-convert and import the files.
This has happened twice now and all the same files. What's happening? Does anyone know of a way to prevent this?
Message was edited by: Marc Buhmann

Reports of this strange file disappearing behavior surface every few months and almost always involve having both apps (STP and FCP) open at the same time. Speculation has been that somewhere in the round trip, FCP gets confused and believes the original files are renders and are deleted. And when FCP deletes something, it is gone.
The work around has been to make sure that both apps are not running at the same time - i.e. export your file from FCP then close FCP. Launch STP, make changes then export back and close STP. Launch FCP, import edited file back in and continue on your merry way.
This is a pain for certain. The other way is make sure you always have a set of the media stored offline (which you would anyway with P2 sourced files) and simply do an offline/online reconnect when the files go missing.
Good luck.

Soundtrack Pro: Crash when use loops

Hi. First sorry for my english...
I have a problem with soundtrack pro months ago.
When i start soundtrack and put a loop from my library to a track just try to enlarge or reduce the loop the aplication chrash.
I try reinstalling the software but the problem against.
Anybody can help me??
Thanks a lot.
Regards

Hi. I'm having the same problem. I just did a complete wipe and reinstall of my MacBook Pro and installed a fresh copy of Logic Studio. I've been using Logic Pro quite happily for a week or so but tried to open Soundtrack Pro for the first time last night and it barely bounced once in the dock then it said that Soundtrack Pro quit unexpectedly. I tried a couple of times including resetting the application but still no joy. I then reinstalled Soundtrack Pro only from the Logic Studio installer DVD but it still isn't opening. Any ideas would be much appreciated. My whole machine is up to date via software update and I have also run Disk Utility and there are no problems. There is basically nothing on my machine at the moment either having done a complete reinstall. Are there any library files that could be deleted to fool it into opening fresh again? Plists etc perhaps? My error log brings up the same thing at the bottom saying that no image was found.
Will keep digging around the archives and see if I can come up with anything.

Soundtrack Pro 3 training

I'd like to get some basic training in Soundtrack Pro 3 that could get me started as a novice. I've cracked opened Soundtrack a few times and played around with it, but I really didn't know what I was doing. I know some stuff about working with sound, and most of the components in Soundtrack are things I understand, but I need something to get me started.
I've enjoyed stuff from Ripple Training in the past, but the only thing I see there is their "Sound Editing & Mastering in Soundtrack Pro" package. Scanning through the lessons, this looks extremely complex. I'm looking for something more along the line of their "Motion Fast Forward" series.
Any suggestions?

Robert,
I have "Motion 3 Fast Forward" and at least one other package from Ripple Training, and these work well for me. However, the description of the Soundtrack package says, "Whether you're an editor working in Final Cut Pro, or a dedicated sound mixer with experience using other audio workstations, this tutorial presents a complete picture on how to edit, process, mix and ultimately master your soundtracks using Apple' Soundtrack Pro 2."
To me, that sounds more complex, but I'm hearing you say that isn't the case. Correct?
I DO know a fair amount about audio, I'm just looking for a resource that will give me clear instructions about how to get where I want to go.

FCP Audio Clips in Soundtrack Pro - Marking the Start & End Points

When I double click on an audio clip that I've sent from FCP into Soundtrack Pro I seem to open up the entire media file.
How do I lock off or at least mark the clip start & end?
I don't see any markers that tell me which part of the clip is actually used in the imported FCP sequence.
I only want to make (non-destructive) changes to the clip.
I don't want to alter the original media file.
And I just want to work on the part that's used in the FCP sequence.
It makes sense that there's a way to show the start & end points of the clip but I'm just not seeing it.

I am a bit of a newb here, so pardon if my explanation is a little unpolished, but I have been working on some of my projects like you are and this is what i figured out. I select my sequence in FCP and send to stp as a multitrack project. The whole audio timeline shows up just as it looks in fcp, and the video track shows as one large clip that is made up of all my cuts put together. Now, my audio tracks are all on one line, and i can see all the clips with their cuts on the sequence. I click the first one and open it up to work on in the waveform editor. At that point i see the entire audio clip, including the part before and after my cut that i am using in my sequence, but i also see, up near the playhead, gray markers that show the actual part of the clip i am using in my edit. It is easest to hit shift-z to look at the entire clip on screen, and then find the grey markers. Also, if you play audio before the in marker, you will hear it but you will see that the video is not playing anything, then once you enter into the in-out section the video will play along, and when you pass the out marker the video freezes as the audio keeps playing. Hope this helps.

Soundtrack Pro Freeze

Someone please help me.
here's my system
4x2.5 GHz PowerPC G5
4GB RAM
Version 10.5.2
Soundtrack Pro Academic
Version 1.1
here's what happens.
i know its mostly coincidence but, every time i open Soundtrack just to "goof around" it starts up and works normally. when i'm working on something with a deadline... it freezes. just a minute ago i got it to open a clip i had sent from FCP to clean up some noise. it started up and loaded in the clip then it started to freeze. what i noticed today was that after i force quit that i no longer have audio in FCP. everything in the timeline will play. the meters show audio, but nothing is coming through the speakers. i searched the forum and say a post from someone with a similar problem. someone else posted a possible solution of installing Pro App Update and they provided a link. I d/l the update but can't install it because the installer says that neither of my volumes are eligible.
i'm at my whits end! i've been compromising my videos by completing them with uncleaned audio and its driving me nuts. i'm having flash backs to my earlier days of working with a beat up POS PC and having to cross my fingers every time i turned the stupid thing on.

I had a similar problem. Soundtrack Pro 1.1 would function just fine, until I tried to play any audio. Then it would freeze. I also noticed that there would be a slight "buzz" in my headphones whenever Soundtrack was open. Nothing I tried worked, until I popped open Soundtrack's preferences, and under the 'General' tab under 'Start Up,' I unchecked "Switch Hardware Sample Rate to Match Document."
This immediately solved the problem! Audio plays just fine, no more buzz and no more freezing! Maybe this will work for you?

My macbook pro (August 2010) keeps freezing when apple mail starts up. This happens every 2nd time I turn on my Macbook Pro. This forces me to hold down the power button to restart my Macbook Pro. Does anyone else experience this, and is there a fix? Thx

since upgrading to OS lion, my mac book pro (2010 August) keeps freezing (non responsive, requires restart) when i turn on my mac and the system is trying to open apple mail. while apple mail is attempting to collect new mail, the macbook pro freezes. this happens every 2nd time i try to start up my computer. this only started happening after i upgraded to OS lion. please let me know what I need to do to fix this. being forced to restart every 2nd time i turn on my macbook pro has been very frustrating. not sure if apple mail is also the cause of my macbook pro for being very slow during start-up (on the occasion the computer doesn't freeze).

I am having similar 'freezing' problems with many programs (Mail, Safari, iTunes, etc.). I have done a clean install of Lion instead of an upgrade when it came out. Perhaps something went wrong with my install? I'm thinking about wiping and reinstalling.

Soundtrack pro doesn't start

Since a claen install of OSX 10.7.1 and FCP Studio, Soundtrack Pro no longer starts. The start window flashes up for a moment, then it dissappears and nothing happens. All software updates are installed, work around from apple support (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3659?viewlocale=en_US) didn't work either.
Can anyone help?

Hi,
So following the instructions you've tried removing the prefs and then reinstalling the software? If you have then there is something else conflicting your STP.
To resolve this you will need to do the following:
Open Console
With the Log list shown on the Left, select ALL MESSAGES
Cmd-K to clear the display
If you are getting messages at this point there is another, possible unrelated issue with your system.
Startup SoundtrackPro
Go back to Console and select all messages in the message area. Then Cmd-C to put into pasteboard.
Paste it back here and send for me to look at. Anything other than:
29/08/2011 11:44:56.558 MIDIServer: MIDIServer [34627] starting; arch=x86_64
is a likely problem. You might even be able to diagnose it yourself from this.
All the best

My MacBook Pro 15" i7 2011 freezes suddenly minutes after starting up.

My MacBook Pro 15" i7 2011 freezes suddenly minutes after starting up the computer.
Sometimes it beeps after freezing, and keeps beeping forever until I shut down the computer by pressing the power button.
Other times the screen gets a little darker and a text appears saying I need to turn off the computer by pressing the power button and restart, but after restarting the computer freezes again. Each time I turn it on it takes only a few minutes to freeze it seams, about 2-3 minutes or less, and occasionaly it doesn´t even start up.
I don´t recall the exact version of the operating system, its MacOSX (10.6 or something)
Any sollutions?

Three beeps is usually indicative of a RAM problem. Take out one RAM chip and see what happens and then swap with the other one. See if there is a difference. Also engage the Apple hardware test and see if that offers any useful information.
Ciao.

Mac Book Pro freezes on start up

I downloaded the latest software updates sent out today and after the restart my Mac Book Pro now freezes on start up after my screen is completely loaded. I've tried all the fixes listed in the troubleshooting guide, nothing works. I think it might be related to my Earthlink total access program because it doesn't freeze until it almost starts this. Can I remove the latest update some how? Help!

My MacBook Pro is experiencing the same problem. I did find something to stop the freezes though... as soon as the screen is loaded, I disable Airport.... and wait at least 2-3 minutes before reenabling it. Not sure why it works but it does for me.
My problems also started after downloading this update.
Good Luck!

Macbook pro freeze at start up

After putting in the latest security update for OS10.8 my macbook freezes once the desktop appears. Have to force shutdown to get out. can't open any windows or applications. I see dropbox in perpetual update.

AllenJP,
try this: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does your MacBook Pro still freeze when starting up in normal mode?
