What's Included in Pro Tools M-Powered 8.0cs3 for Mac OS X?

• Elastic regions that are the same length as the original audio file may be deleted from disk after performing "select unused" and then "remove unused" files.
  

• If a session was saved with the Tempo Editor visible but the Tempo ruler hidden, opening that session and then showing the Tempo ruler may cause a crash.
  

• Pro Tools may crash when selecting leftover playlists after the previous parent track has been deleted.
  

• When launching Pro Tools or accessing the Peripherals dialog without an Ethernet cable connected to the computer, an error message is posted: "No valid network adapter is available for Video Satellite connections."
  

• Audio data, e.g. guide tracks, imported from certain QuickTime movies may play back at half speed.
  

• With several hundred audio regions on a track, switching to X-Form as the Elastic Audio algorithm may cause low memory errors and lead to a crash.
  

• Preview and/or rendering performance with X-Form on Elastic Audio tracks is improved in 8.0cs3 (compared to 8.0).
  

• Using the Time Shift Varispeed preset (PAL to Film -4%) will result in a file that drifts over time and runs out of sync with picture.
  

• Pro Tools may intermittently crash during normal playback or recording workflows.
  

• Certain sessions created in Pro Tools 7.4.x may not open in Pro Tools 8 due to a "bus error in main thread" error message.
  

• Certain sessions cannot be opened due to the following error: "Could not complete your request because out_of_range: Cmn_PolyVectorImpl::At"
  

• After a record pass using Destructive Punch, there may be a waveform present but no audio recorded to disk.
  

• When launching a session that contains Reason ReWire, Reason posts a dialog "Engine not responding. Please check your ReWire host."
  

• After changing the session start time and maintaining time code, Pro Tools will delete additional playlists and crash with a kernel panic after saving and closing the session. You may see any of the following errors prior to the crash: "Could not complete the close session command because basic_string::_S_create" or "Bus error" in thread "Main Thread", at address 0x0."
  

• Moving (dragging) an automated plug-in from inserts F-J to inserts A-E while the automation lane for one of the plug-in's parameters is visible may crash Pro Tools.
  

• Writing automation to one plug-in located on inserts F-J will cause the same automation data to be written to all other plug-ins located on insert F-J on the same track. Previously existing automation will be overwritten (or erased if the "Plug-In Controls Default to Auto-Enabled" preference is checked) after saving, closing and reopening the session.
  

• In certain cases sessions will not open due to the following error: "Could not complete the Open Session command because magic ID does not match while translating Session Window Config." This error is more likely to occur in tandem with very large track counts (~100) and long (>1 hour) recordings.
  

• Certain third party plug-ins such as Addictive Drums or UVI Workstation will not function correctly under Pro Tools 8. Mouse clicks are vertically offset and parts of the plug-in GUI will not draw correctly.
  

• Saving a session copy with sample rate conversion to a rate different from the session's may result in erroneous automation ramps between breakpoints. This is mostly evident in scenarios where a static automation level had been changed over the duration of a single region.
  

• Removing a file from the Pro Tools region list or project browser may crash Pro Tools if another audio file with the same name is already used by Transfuser.
  

• Changing the channel width by inserting a mono-to-stereo plug-in to a mono track will remove a downstream mono plug-in (and all its automation data) that resides on underlying insert slots without warning.
