Program Error while trying to do a bounce to disk on a PT|24 system.
- Disk Cache (in the Memory CDev) should be 512K or lower (128K is optimal). Restart the CPU after changing the cache setting.

- DAE Playback Buffer set too high. In the cases where this was reported, a setting of 8 was being used. Lowering to 2 or less fixed the problem.

- DAE prefered memory set too low.

No audio when playing a session, or Mac freezes when instantiating a Plug-In on a DSP Farm PCI/II in a PTIII PCI system (PT 4.0).
This could be caused by running DigiSystem INIT (DSI) 3.1.1 or earlier with a rev II DSP Farm. Although there is no functional difference between DSP Farm revs, DSP Farms that have serial numbers starting with "FG" require DAE/DSI 3.2 or later for proper operation.

Note: The Magma 7 Slot Chassis is not supported by DSI 3.2 or 3.2.1. Magma 7 Slot Chassis users should be running DAE/DSI 3.1.1 or 3.2.3.

This appears to be an issue with Pro Tools 4.1, DAE/DSI 3.2, regardless of track count.

Workaround is to switch to 44.1k sample rate.

How to sync Pro Tools 4.x to Performer, MOTU sequencers.
- Download and install FreeMIDI 1.3.1 or higher from www.motu.com
- The FreeMIDI and OMS Emulator extensions must be in the Extensions folder. If FreeMIDI version 1.33 or higher is installed the OMS emulator extension is not needed.
- Disable the Open Music System Extension

In FreeMIDI Setup:
1) In the FreeMIDI Preferences window, enable "FreeMIDI applications only" and "Inter-application MIDI".
2) If version 1.32 or higher FreeMIDI is being used there is a check box in the prefs called "emulate OMS" that needs to be checked.

In Performer:
1) Always launch Performer first. If DAE loads then select "MIDI only" from the Basics menu. DAE will quit.
2) In Receive Sync window (Basics menu), select "Inter-application MIDI" and in same window select "MTC, DTL or DTLe".
3) Enable "Slave to external sync" in Basics menu.
4) Set desired frame rate from Basics menu.
4) Press the Play button on the transport - it should flash, indicating that it's waiting for MTC from Pro Tools.

In Pro Tools:
1) In the Session Setup window, set "Output Time Code" pop-up to Digital Performer.
2) Verify that the Frame Rate, Format and Start Time are the same in both Digital Performer and Pro Tools.
3) Starting Pro Tools will generate MTC, which will trigger Performer.

DAE error -6034.
PCI traffic is too heavy to send record overview data. This could be caused by other PCI cards, like video or SCSI accelerators.

Set SCSI accelerators to 10 MB/sec or less. If the problem persists, try recording (or bouncing) fewer tracks.
