Soundtrack Pro 2.0 "an unexpected problem"

I got this error tonight:
NSInternalInconsistencyException
Invalid parameter not satisfying:
m_dragAndDropAutoscrolTimer == nil
How to duplicate:
Using FCS 2 --
1. From FCS 2 do a Send To Soundtrack Pro
MultiTrack
2. Add a Track
3. Located sound file I wanted .aiff via Search tab
4. drag file to File Editor tab on new empty track
5. drag file from File Editor to empty track
The downside, I can't always duplicate this,
especially if a create an new blank STP project.
Anyone else run into this problem with the new
Soundtrack Pro 2.0??
Rob.
I had the same problem - same error. The file I was trying to add to my track was a soundtrack supplied special FX noise. Tried many different clips, same problem. Also, the main project window seems to want to auto scroll - but only in one direction.

When Opening Soundtrack Pro 2.0.2: Unexpected Error "NSImageCacheException"

For some reason, when I open Soundtrack Pro 2.0.2, the application doesn't completely open. I have access to the File>New>MultrackProject (or Audio File), but when I make my selection, it give me this "An Unexpected Problem" NSImageCacheException Can't Cache Image.
I don't know what image the application is trying to cache but the entire application won't open because of it. I've tried reinstalling software and updates from Apple. Nothing at the moment.
Anyone know something about this?
Thanks in advance.

Delete the plist for the app.
Get digitalrebellion.com 's FCS Maintenance pack and use it to selectively trash the preferences. That usually fixes this sort of issue. If it doesn't, the next step is to use FCS Maintenance Pack to selectively remove STP, then reinstall it. Don't bother deleting/reinstalling the sound files.
Good Luck.

Unexpected problem: uncaught exception when working with audio files in Soundtrack Pro

Hey,
Whenever I double click an audio file in the timeline to work on it, I end up getting the Error message: "Unexpected problem: uncaught exception" and Soundtrack Pro eventually crashes. Also, this happens when I try to work with audio files in the file editor. I have Leopard and am using Logic Studio 8. Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks
Matt

Didnt know how to remove the original clip from the STP arrange window - or whatever it's called in STPro. So I could go no further in my perverse science experiment.
It also appeared that I could only import an aif but not a wav?
I gave up on STPro and did what I needed to do in Logic, which I use regularly.
Thank you for folowing up on this.
PS. I used to use an old PowerPC version (1.0.3) of STPro and loved the way it visually showed the change in the waveform when you added each efffect. It appears that the new version (3.0.1) does not allow you to do this anymore? You can render or flatten the effects to see the final waveform, but then you are dead in the water and cant make changes?
Im such a newbie at STPro that I am probably not using it right?

Soundtrack Pro "Unexpected Problem" Quits

This is driving me crazy...
Since installing Soundtrack Pro (as part of the Studio 2 upgrade), I've had a persistent problem: If I select any audio file listed in the browser, then move OUT of Soundtrack Pro (in other words, bring another application to the foreground), when I return to Soudtrack I get an error:
Unexpected Problem
NSInvalidArgumentException
* -[AudioSource model]: selector not recognized [self = 0xb378fe0]
... and it only gives me the option to quit, but it doesn't generate a "send problem to Apple" report. I can restart fine, and no other apps seem to be adversely affected.
It's the same every time. If I DON'T have an audio file highlighted, it doesn't error.
Any Thoughts?

Do you have FxFactory plug-ins installed? I turned these off by just un-checking them in the FxFactory window that pops up when you double-click the plug-ins, and the errors with Soundtrack went away completely.
Hope this helps.

Soundtrack Pro "unexpected problem" no Start anymore

Großer Schreck: auf einmal verweigert Soundtrack Pro den Start. Es lädt sich zwar das Programm, aber es gibt keine Arbeitsoberfläche mehr. Wenn man über die Menüleiste ein neues Projekt öffnen möchte erscheint folgende Fehlerbox:
An Unexpected Problem
NSRangeException
Cannot remove an observer <BinModule 0x121f2ab0> for the key path "arrangedObjects" from <NSTreeController 0x12527810> because it is not registered as an observer.
Auch der Klick auf OK (nach dem Motto, zur Kenntnis genommen..) öffnet keine Arbeitsoberfläche. Neuinstallation brachte nur dasselbe Ergebnis.
Hinweis: auf der Workstation befindet sich auch Final Cut Pro X. Diese Woche wurde auf 10.04 upgedatet. Ob es daran liegt...?
Hoffentlich hat jemand eine Idee... Über Soundtrack Pro wird eine wöchentliche Radiosendung geschnitten und produziert... Wir sind total aufgeschmissen, wenn wir das Programm nicht mehr ans Laufen bekommen..
Danke!!

Summary in english:
You see error message above? That's all, what I see, when I want to start Soundtrack Pro 3 since today... You won't get any workspace, but just the error message. Even re-installation does not solve the problem. On the Mac Pro, there is also an installation of Final Cut Pro X, which was updated this week to version 10.04. Might this be the source for all problems...? Anybody any idea? Hopefully, because we really need Soundtrack Pro for an project. Thanks!!

Vielen Dank!! Ich hatte zwar MOTION gar nicht auf dem Computer. Habe es jetzt nachinstalliert. Nach dem Öffnen wurde es zwar irgendwie automatisch gecrasht... aber zum Glück liess sich danach das ebenfalls neu installierte Soundtrack Pro wieder öffnen... Hoffentlich bleibt es so...
Uff... Sendung heute Abend gerettet...

Soundtrack Pro unexpectedly quit

I recently upgraded to Logic Pro 08. from 07. Just tried to open Soundtrack Pro, but keep getting an error message telling me the application quit unexpectedly. So I went to downloads, and was successful with Logic 8.0.1 update, but when I try to perform the Soundtrack Pro update as per the order of their instructions, I get caught between the two available Pro Apps updates (2007-01 and 2007-02), the earlier one saying I can't download it because I don't need it, and the later one saying I need the first update in order to proceed.
Does anyone understand my problem?
Thanks so much.

You're Welcome.
1. This one was really relatively simple, about as easy as they get actually and very common for AUs that crash the host.
Thread 0 Crashed:
0 <<00000000>> 0x00000000 0 + 0
1 com.tcelectronic.Fabrik C 0x15977b07 ComponentEntryPoint<GPFAU>::Dispatch(ComponentParameters*, GPFAU*) + 47
First, find the thread that crashed and see why it crashed. Look for clues from there.
The crashed thread in this report was 0. Within that thread there were calls to Fabrik C. So try disabling the culprit and see if it works.
2. Well, there's not much I can say without much speculation. The apps will likely handle AUs differently. There's a good chance SP would be the most different from the others in the bundle regarding AU hosting. Another thing it could be is the AU cache used by apps. Because of the cache, hosts can store info about an AU and refer to it when launching. What it boils down to is apps will do some checks, such as:
Has the AU's version updated since the cache last updated?
Should the host bother to load it? (i.e. user requested it not to load)
Did it pass validation?
Other pieces of info, perhaps supported channel layouts and on and on.
This way, the host can launch faster/safely. If no update is detected and it passed validation, it will assume it still passes and plays nicely.
Sometimes the cache is wrong - for various reasons, i.e. if an update crept through. It rarely happens. You may want to clear SP's cache if you really like this plugin, then it will be forced to update the cache. Maybe an update did slip by? I'm already far enough into speculation realm...

Problem sending to soundtrack pro

I am using FCP 5.1.4 and in my timeline I have a clip with bad audio that i want to clean up in soundtrack. I right-click the file and go to "send to.." "soundtrack pro audio file" is greyed out, but the multitrack option is not, so i tried the multitrack option. In soundtrack i cannot set noise print or anything in the multitrack file. If i disconnect the right and left channels I can send them one at a time to soundtrack and clean them up, but that is too time consuming after a while. How can I send a stereo file, clean up the noise, and have it appear in FCP? I know i have done it before, but for some reason it will not work now.
Thank you for your help.

Okay... so now it's not working again.
This was after getting the message:
Unable to render file
when I tried to normalize.
Then STP froze up on me and I had to force quit.
Resent from FCP, then tried to double click on a track to open it up, and STP crashed on me.
This is about the 5th crash I've had this evening in STP.
Not sure what the problem is... maybe I need to re-install the OS. But that's not going to happen tonight.
Would be nice to know if others are having this problem or if it is just me?

Hi, I have small problem, for some time in music area I had two folders to use 1. Apple loops for soundtrack pro 2. Final Cut pro sound effects now both are gray and with out content may I know what happend

I just went through this and it appears that my Focusrite Saffire was the culprit. I connected all the outputs on the focusrite according to the way the jacsk on the back were labeled and then set up the multichannel speaker setup to match. Then I went into STP, created a pink noise clip and panned it around, the LFE, center and rears were not in the right place.
I reconnected the hardware to match the 5.1 pan pot in STP then changed the multichannel speaker setup to match. Everything appears to be correct now but I would have loved to have been able to just assigned the output busses to correct outputs in the saffire.
Next step is to pan that pink noise around with my SPL meter to calibrate the room.

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?

TS2847 Soundtrack Pro 3.0 output problem

In Soundtrack Pro 3.0 the meters move but no sound comes out. I've tried removing the AU plug-ins to no avail. Logic work just fine. FCP X works fine. Has anyone had this problem and found a solution?

I am starting to think that what i ask cannot be done! The "in" point marks a cycle region in the project. Even if i make this region active and/or select that region, the export option still bounces the project from the beginning. It can only be done if i use the "trim in point to playhead" option through "clip" menu, because the project is obviously deleted from the beginning to that position.
I am stuck to a problem that should have a clearer way to do. Or am i missing something?
Again thanks for the immediate reply.

Audio scrubbing problem in Soundtrack Pro

Hi, new to this forum but not new to pro audio! I've been all round the houses trying to fix this one; hope somebody knows the answer.
The problem is that although FCP's audio works as expected through the AJA, Soundtrack Pro only outputs playback audio through it. Scrubbed audio outputs through the Mac's audio out and there doesn't seem to be anywhere to change it. With the way the edit suite's set up this means switching the monitoring selector just to hear scrubbing - not the best workflow arrangement!
The AJA device only seems to be recognised by Soundtrack Pro for video, not audio.
I'm using a Mac Pro 2 x 3 Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon with an AJA Io audio/video interface; OS is 10.5.8. I'm also using Final Cut Pro 7.01 and Soundtrack Pro 3.0.1
Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks, Doug.

I'm using a Kona 3 in a quad core and it works in all aspects of I/o.
16 tracks in and out and mixing and monitoring in stereo and surround. And yes, I have a proper surround monitoring setup.
I suspect it's the I/o box itself. Maybe, because its outboard it isn't setup to handle that kind of monitoring. Did you ask AJA?

Soundtrack Pro / Flash problems

Since installing Soundtrack Pro, I have had problems with Macromedia Flash.
I installed Soundtrack Pro yesterday and imported MP3 voice-over files for correction & improvement and saved them as .aiff files for import into a Flash .FLA file on my MacBook Pro.
On importing the files, Flash began to behave strangely - notably, impossible to play the .FLA file to check it (file works OK when published to an .SWF file). Also, Flash refuses to import .WAV files created in Soundtrack Pro.
However, Flash works OK on a G4, where I have not installed Sountrack.
I have tried repairing permissions / deleting the Flash preferences file / reinstalling Flash... but these have no effect.
I would be grateful for any help/suggestions.
Best regards,
Garry

Thanks for the reply. I discovered what the stuttering problem in Soundterack was myself, by running around the Internet doing searches. It turns out that these G5 quad-core Macs have a defect in their optical ports on the back of the case. Light leaks in there and causes problems in Soundtrack. It can be cured by plugging both ends of a toslink cable into the ports, to prevent light from getting in there. One of these little cables only costs a few dollars on Amazon.com. I bought one and plugged it in, and the problem disappeared. Soundtrack now works smoothly.
It's too bad that programs such as Final Cut 7 and Soundtrack were simply abandoned by Apple, and declared obsolete and irrelevant, because they can still do excellent work. I have another, Intel Mac with the latest (as of last summer) Adobe suite on it, including Adobe Premiere, and yet I can do many things better in Final Cut than I can in Premiere (for one thing, Premiere can only open one project at at time. On my current video project in Final Cut 6, I have three projects open at the same time and am moving clips between them easily). However, now that Adobe has moved to rental versions of their software, my copy of Premiere is also obsolete, and gets no updates or improvements, just like Final Cut 7.
So I'm making my videos on my obsolete Mac G5 using obsolete software, Final Cut 6 and Soundtrack. I guess I'll remain a defiant holdout for as long as I can.

I have Soundtrack Pro 1.1 It opens OK but the everything takes 4 seconds to work. It's very slow and unusable. Is this a well known problem?

I have Soundtrack Pro 1.1 It opens OK but the everything takes 4 or so seconds to work. It's very slow and unusable in its present state. Is this a well known problem?

STP 3.0.1 was the version designed to work with OSX 10.6.8. Anything earlier than that and issues may arrise. Hard to tell what yours are.
You may want to run Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager to reset the prefs back to the default state. If nothing else, it is a good troubleshooting step.
Good luck.

Audio sync problem: exporting from FCP to Pro tools or soundtrack pro

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Cut Pro sound export for mastering.....sync problem
Hey,
I'm editing a 30 minute film and I have done most of the sound edit in FCP and Soundtrack pro and I want to now bring all the sound into pro tools to master the sound but every time i export sound into pro tools it seems to stretch by two or three seconds.
I have tried OMF, AIFF, XML, and Quicktime audio file sut to no avail!!!!
There are 50 tracks in the file so it is quiet large. It's not that there are handles of the file also as when I sync the file with the audio track with the video it syncs in one place but it is still out of sync in another.........It's as if the audio has been stretched!?!
If anyone has any advice it'd be much appreciated
Keith

Try mixing down the audio first. Sequence/Render Only/Audio mixdown.
You could even try exporting the audio with the Export QT movie command using "current settings" and reimport that file, Add that mixed down file to a copy of the sequence. If it syncs in FCP I'd think it will sync on export too.

Tascam US-144mkII Causing Problems in Soundtrack Pro 3.0.1

Just got a Tascam US-144mkII, as recommended by the Apple site, to use with Soundtrack Pro 3. So far, though, it's causing a problem - while I can hear audio that I'm playing and I can monitor that sound through the Tascam, the cursor won't move when I record and if I try to play any loops, I get an error - a CNSExceptionWrarpper?. If I unplug the Tascam, everything works fine.
I'm using the latest driver - 2.0.
Any suggestions on how I can get this thing working would be greatly appreciated...

You're right. It wasn't recommended. I should've said it is supported.

Anyone with any suggestions, I'd still love some insight into this.
