Hi Mike. Can you share a screenshot of your preset for the action and a screenshot of the pop-up menu showing the preset so we can compare?

To clarify (was typing on my phone): I meant a screenshot of the template preset inside SoundFlow, and a screenshot of the popup menu in Pro Tools showing the track preset :)
They need to match 100%, so the first step (also in trying to reproduce the error) is to compare the two.

Thanks Mike. AFAIK this script is supposed to run in the Edit window and is about recalling entire tracks, not just about recalling inserts. I'm not sure if that's the same thing. Did you have the Edit window focused when trying to run the preset (and were you running it while PT was focused through a keyboard shortcut)?
I'm not familiar enough with Track Presets to know if the recall inserts here shows the same kind of presets as when you recall an entire track.

Sorry, edited the above since I said some nonsense

Hey Christian,
That was the issue.. I was running it in the mix window and it doesnt work. Works great in the edit window.

Awesome, I'll make note that we should be better at throwing the right error messages in these cases.

It would be great if it also worked in the mix window
