                  A quick note is that this usually happens because the Clip Rename dialog doesn't come up. Please check if you have a search going on in the clip list, as this can sometimes hinder a clip rename working correctly in PT.

                          so i just realized...I was expecting this program to drop markers in realtime on the timeline with custom names. What im gathering is that this simply renames clips ? am i missing something?

                            Hi Michael,

                            The app is designed to be used for creating named clip groups based on selections you make, not in real-time.

                            If you're looking for a workflow that supports real-time registering of notes (that can eventually be turned into markers), the free Notes app might be a better fit. It comes with a "Notes Client" companion app that can be configured with a matrix of pre-defined notes.
                            Once you add those notes to your project, you can later export them as markers in Pro Tools.
