Bounce Factory stopped bouncing more than one session at a time.

    Hey there @Andrew_Scheps!

    I ran into a new issue with Bounce Factory and tried everything I normally do. This is in order. (Update protools, update soundflow, update bounce factory, tried different sessions, and then lastly uninstalled soundflow and bounce factory then reinstalled.)

    I can bounce one protools session at a time, but when I try to bounce multiple sessions, it does this weird thing (included in screen recording.)

    Let me know if you need anymore information and thanks so much! Everything is in this package (screen recording and )

        Hi @Lance_Crowder ,

        Thanks for sending the User Files and the screen recording, very helpful!

        It's all pretty odd. It's actually hard to tell where it's going wrong because it's getting stuck in different places each time. There are three things I see that could be issues (but I'm not sure they are the cause).
        1 - While you're bouncing the Bounce Factory window is covering up some of the track real estate (the track size popup). This can cause issues, though I don't think it's the root cause here. Make sure the app is only covering the actual timeline.
        2 - Are you recalling any data other than mutes and solos? Do you have more than one snapshot per session? If the answer is no then go to the Bounce Factory settings and turn off the Snapshot Data Recall Filter (just click on the title and it will disable it. That will bypass one step of the process which is where it got stuck a couple of times.

        3 - It's much better to have Pro Tools launched when you hit bounce in Bounce Factory. It's not really designed to deal with launching it and I think it kind of got out of sync, which I'm hoping is the cause of the problem.
        The only other thing I noticed is that your running OS 12. Monterey is actually kind of a pig, especially with Pro Tools. I'm definitely not recommending updating your operating system; that's an invasive thing that almost definitely isn't the root of the issues you are having. Just to say I'm on Ventura and Pro Tools runs a lot better.
        If none of these help just reply here and we'll set up a zoom for tomorrow to troubleshoot.

        Thanks,
        Andrew
