Q: Soundtrack Pro stalling during playback

Is anyone having issues with stalling or continuosly stopping during playback? This is a recent annoyance and hasn't always done it.

 

Editing a simple 2 track stereo file on a 2 x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon with 16 GB memory so there shouldn't be issues.

 

Using Soundtrack Pro 3.0.1 with OS 10.8.4.

Soundtrack Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4), 2 x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon

    Given that OSX 10.8.4 is a recent occurence and STP 3 was written to run on OSX 10.6.8, it may be simple incompatibility with your OSX version. I've noticed all sorts of iffy behavior from it on my 10.8 machine. It seems much more stable on 10.7 (and was rock solid on 10.6.8 - but I needed to upgrade for other hardware reasons ...)

     

    A couple of things to think about -

     

    How full is the playback disk?

     

    What format is the file?

     

    How many realtime effects?
