Hi I used to be able to drag clips to other tracks by selecting the clip with the left mouse button and then while hoding the mouse button down dragging the clip to another track. I'm not sure why I lost this ability.....I can still move the clips horizontally within the same track w/the mouse. Anyb...

Hi Brian I've installed 2 Plextor Premiums in 2 of our Pmix systems w/no problems. I just removed the crappy burners that came w/our Dells and replaced them w/the Plextors and they worked right off the bat. I did not install the Plextor Utilities yet, however. Have you checked the 'Settings' in the ...

I don't know what would stop you from dragging a clip to another track, I'm pretty sure I've always been able to do this. Try this: select your clip and then hold the 'd' key down and drag the clip to another track. If you do the same thing while holding the 'f' key down the selected clip will (on m...

Hi I'm not in front of my Pyramix right now but I think the best way to do what you need would be to ungroup the tracks. Make sure all are selected and then press 'control-u' on your keyboard. They will now edit independently of each other. You might then want to shift-click on the two music tracks,...

Hi Ueli

Do you have the proper cd burner selected in the Discwrite window? Make sure in the 'target' window of Discburner you have the right cd burner listed...

Good luck,

Hi folks- I was glad to learn that CD track markers (and comment markers) will follow the audio if 'auto ripple' is engaged. However, it appears that: -it is not possible to cut and paste audio w/markers and have the markers appear in the new pasted file. -it is not possible to select a clip with ma...

Ok....I checked out the project I'm having problems with and there was no automation on it. I went into the Automation menu and then clicked on 'automation tracks', then delete all tracks (even though there was no automation on the project). Then a save, and voila, the project shrank down to a reaso...

Hi guys We're having the same problem on one of our Pyramix stations....I noticed the project was taking longer and longer to save, then I noticed the size of the project was several mb.....just 3 edits later it had gone up dramatically in size, and eventually ended up being over 20 mb! I would be i...

Mark, My mouse is not configured in any special way, and in the control panel there is no way for me to assign the middle button to anything. But....this is a Logitech USB wheel mouse, and I'm using the scroll wheel as the middle button to click to do the selecting I described earlier. It just worke...

Mark, I use the middle button on my mouse to accomplish quite easily all of these commands: Extend selection to end of clip Extend selection to start of clip select from cursor to end of clip select from cursor to beginning of clip For example, to select from the cursor to the start or end of a clip...

Hi Nunz We don't use Sonic's built-in archive system anymore. We archive using Adaptec's Toast and regular cdr's. Then I put the cd archive in the pc's tray and just drag the file from the Toast archive into the Pmix media drive. The file name doesn't change from Sonic to Pmix. I'm sure Pmix won't r...

Hi guys I've imported a lot of edls from Sonic v5.4 (can't import Sonic HD edls) to Pyramix 4.1b13 with mostly good results. We archive our Sonic projects to CD using Toast (aiff files) and then I just drag the file to the Pmix media drive. I then import the Sonic edl after renaming it to end in '.e...

I agree! As a Sonic user I'm used to this. I'd also like to see another type of marker, a comment marker, which would have the capability to store some text, which would be both tied to the waveform and visible in the panel, not only the tab editor below. I would use this constantly, mainly to get i...
