Wow-did you make these yourself? Was there a DIY template you used? What is the range of the controller or is it hardwired? Im pretty impressed with this, is there anything comercially available like this? Thanxfor the quick reply-Tony

anks fThanks r the quick reply John,you are always so helpful and respond with great solutions and insight. I was reading another thread about long projects and saw you recommended rendering to MXF if you want to reconstruct smaller “scenes” into a larger project-do you still feel this is the best method for a large project. Also I read where you said this-“BTW, If you are running a business you should have daily incremental backups of your system. This way if an update causes things to fail you can always get back to the state you had the day before. Anything less, IMHO, is playing with fire.” By backing up do you mean making a ghost like copy of your C drive or should I be using Windows internal backup and restore? I use Windows 7 pro. I know this is basic stuff but Im guilty of this and I would like to do it correctly. I always value your opinion as the standard- you’ve helped me out of a couple jams already-Thanks

Scott, could
you tell me more about those custom panheads you use with the PS3 Controllers? sounds very interesting. How far is the range? can you also Zoom in out? -
The company made solid plugins.I thought that their plugins we’re free, except for their high end ones. Maybe the channel strip was a high end one-been so long. If you paid for it I wouldn’t feel guilty using a hack plugin. But it may not function properly in Vegas and other workstations. There are a lot of other channel strip plugins that emulate boards and on special can be really cheap. Likes Waves Redd or Scheops 73 or similar plug-ins from IK multimedia. Steve Slate plugs don’t seem to work too well with Vegas though. If you want to go high end there’s SSL duende. But give K-haus a try and try to report back your findings. I know you can still find the K-haus free plug-ins on reputable sites.

I have just installed waves as well. I have no problems running myself plug-ins I will double check to see that it is using the 64Bit version, but I believe it is the one I’m using. Waves Plug-ins seem to take up resources though.

Yes, this can be a pain. Putting the files on the local drive (c/)will help. Also what I do is to re-render the file as a new wav file and this seems to work when I place it in the same folder with the other media. A little time consuming especially with files that are an hour or longer. Any other work arounds by other people? Let’s use this thread as a reference till the problem is addressed. Thanks for keeping this problem in the light-Tony

Dave,
What a great post, thanx for all the info. The hard drive Iam using is brand new and I copied the files to it from another drive. Do you think it could become fragmented that quickly? The old system I was using was a duo core from about 5 years ago running SVP 8.The New machine is quad core I7 and I upgraded to version 12. My gut feeling is that the new drive shouldn’t be fragmented so quickly, that I’m missing some setting in bios or Vegas. It won’t even play WAV files captured by Vegas as soon as I write them. I think that the suggestion that the video is hogging the bandwidth could be something investigating, but how can I check this or make changes. It could be my audio card as I’m using an onboard laptop. Not an ASIO card. Any other suggestions are appreciated, unbelievable the knowledge that you ,John, and Steve have about Vegas. Thanx again for all the help and input-Tony -
Thanx for the reply John, it is plugged into a USB 3 input. Do I need a special cable to access USB 3 speeds? I do have another USB device hooked up-an Ilok for some of the music plugins I own. Do you think this would take up bandwidth? I noticed other people having this problem as well. I figured by the last build of Sony Pro version 12 they would have a lot of these type of kinks worked out. I hardly had any problems with WAV files in version 8. WAV files should be some of the easiest files to play. They play correctly on the C drive, which makes me think that it has something to do with the external drive and how it is transferring files. Interestingly, the video files play perfect from the external at the same time the WAV files won’t. It makes me feel Im missing some setting. Thanx again for the reply-Tony

This isn’t an acceptable solution, I could edit WAV from a zoom that were over two hours on Vegas Pro 8.Sometimes I use multitrack from other sources that are WAV. MP3 is a lossy compression format, everytime you open the file it loses information. WAV is a professional format that Sony Vegas PRO!!!,needs to handle. I’m not having problems playing my wav on the local drive, I wrote Sony and I’ll report back when I hear their response-Tony

Dave, thanx for your reply. I think I’ve narrowed the problem down to something connected to using the external drive. When I copy my WAV files to the c drive they work fine, but become jumbled when played on an external with my laptop. Any advice or settings I may be overlooking-Thanx Tony
