I just used the 'in program' version of the updater to update one of my machines and am now up to version 6.2.4.0 but I notice on the FTP server that there is...
... Sure.... The only know major issue w/ 6.2.4.0 is when you replace a track in a Sound Effect using the ... button, it doesn't recalculate the length of that...
... I think this is a wise observation. Dual rigs are sometimes undoubtedly a show-saver, but the cost of doing them right and keeping them running smoothly...
As the owner of a system that you can just flip a switch to go to the backup machine, I would echo both Chris and Richard. I spent nearly 10k for a rig with 2...
... I can second this. In our experience, we have provided spare systems that can be substituted quickly and which have the current show loaded and ready to...
... We've been running dual-redundant systems for SAM & G-Type for more than a decade, ShowMan & SFX 5.6 for 8 years and QLab for a few months. Our philosophy...

So I thought I would stay safe and go back to 6.2.3.0 but after installation, SFX won't start and a window comes up which says 'I'm Sorry, SFX has had to...
... I thought that was all upfront back in 2002; I didn't deal with buying ShowMan. We haven't used it for a show for a couple of years. I think we had the odd...
... Rich, You're a perfect example for my original point. The National Theatre has you there to oversee the original installation, design and implementation...
... I think it comes down to cost/benefit/risk analysis. If we're short of money on a tour, we don't send a dual system out if the show can survive without...
... I don't like to take up bandwidth on someone else's list so will be as brief as possible. I was not implying anything improper, just that my memory...
Hi all, In one of Richard's latest posts he mentioned the fact that redundant systems are not always the best way to go, as there are plenty of things in the...

Hi Richard, Tried a full install with no luck. I can go back to 6.1.2.0 which will work but 6.2.3.0 will just give me the same error message. I am now back to...

This is the back-up alternative I usually use as well Mic - only it is done on the cheap with a CD player or two and a cue sheet! It is not pretty and a bit of...
Hello Group: This is my first post, but I've been following the SFX mailing lists and group for quite a while. I'm the audio tech at a large multipurpose...
Are you saying that SFX won't play the files? I never really deal with .mp3 or .wma files frankly so I've never run into this issue except in dealing with the...
Most likely, the dance schools do have annual contracts with ASCAP/BMI that allow them to use the music for dance - this is one of the applications where the...
Len, I think there are three issues in your mail: 1. Do I have the rights to play the music? Since you are in Canada, it is SOCAN that handles licencing for...
Does anyone know what version of SFX 6 is the latest one that has Timecode working correctly? In version 6.2.4 if you use the set timecode command the...

Rob, Very likely that trying to go back in time didn't unregister the main audio engine dll. The best way to go back is to uninstall SFX, delete the...
... Drew, I think you have to go back to before 6.2.3.0 if you're not willing or able to give the beta a try. Or you can set the timecode with a script...
