I may need a little more info



could be a stereo mono thing ??



I'll make an ASSUMPTION and jump to a specific idea

one should never assume

you are on a Mac ... you have recorded B-WAV files.



I have found that many programs are not happy with the PT method of tagging a WAV file.

AND

why does PT use a PT icon on a Mono file when PT doesn't play the file when you accidentaly double click on it .... mmmm ?

damed digidesign ... it never used to be like that back at PT4 and 4.3

:x



Use Quicktime Pro to open the file then save as or export the file as a new wav with a new name

now you have a Quicktime WAV and things like Toast and FCP and others ... I-Tunes seems to be happier with the files



frustrating isin't it ?



On the PC Win Media Player also doesn't like a PT WAV file so try a similar save / export trick.



that's all I got for now.
