Some folk have had trouble finding the Release Notes for the 8.0.4 update, so here are some URLs…
Read me file!! (Known issues list)…
Mac leopard 10.5.8 and snow leopard 10.6.2 & 10.6.3 download page…
Also a new bug has already surfaced in Pro Tools HD 8.0.4. You read the full thread on the Digidesign User Conference.
‘Mark the amazing guy’ posted…
Apologies if this has been posted already- I couldn’t find anything about it. When working with Timeline and Edit selection unlinked, if you
-select an area with edit selection, then
-move your timeline marker,
your edit selection gets wiped every time. Can anyone else confirm this, or know of a workaround?
‘laki’ added….
Well Mark, I saw this just today. Oddly enough, it’s not the selection that gets wiped (the markers are still where they were in the timecode track). PT is actually deselecting the tracks that were selected. If you have track selection follows edit selection enabled, you can reselect the tracks and you’ll see that your selection has not been lost. And, not to be a stickler for the rules, but you might get some more responses if you specify your system specs. See the “Help us help you” sticky in the PTHD Mac OSX forum. Good luck. I usually don’t work in unlinked.
‘DigiTechSupt’ quickly chipped in and confirmed…
Mark – Thanks for the report. We’ve been able to verify this and will get it in the queue for a fix asap. The best work around we can find (and it’s not really a valid workaround) is activating “Link Track and Edit Selection” and then when your edit selection has been blown away from the timeline just selecting the track again remakes the selection (it’s still stored in the timeline, just not in the edit).

Seven radio producers – all based in the north of England – have joined forces to launch a new co-operative venture – ‘Radio Wizards’. It’s equally remarkable that their aim now is to work together on every kind of sound production... except radio!
"It’s taken over a year to get to this point," says ‘wizard’ Mike Thornton, "but now we’ve got a viable business plan, we’ve launched our website and we’re already starting to attract commissions. As a facilities provider we decided to facilitate this partnership and set them up with a web site to help kickstart this excellent partnership."

Mark, I just discovered your blog and I rank it as outstanding. I will refer all my future questions about Pro Tools 8.0 here first and tell others in the recording business about it too.
Keep up the good work.
