FIrst, I'm running v2 on a Mac right now.
I just tracked the last concert at the theatre - more or less 16
tracks for two hours.
I want the finished product to be continuous with track markers.
I know I can just split it into two halves, mix those, drop 'em into a
mastering program and lay in track markers.
However, as you can imagine, keeping your focus for an hour at a time
watching up to 16 channels can be damn tough. I've ruined several
takes because my brain wandered when I was supposed to bring something
up or down.
What I really want to know is if there's a way to tell Paris to stop
exactly on a marker. I can drop in markers for where I want each
track to start and stop, mix those chunks, and then drop the chunks
into Toast with zero gappage.
Can this be done? I want this thing done, but having to keep full
attention for an hour at a time is getting to be a problem.
Thanks!

Cut your tracks, all of them, on markers.
Render selections, name/folder them as you see fit.
Mix each in it's own PPJ.

Paul,
I don't think you can get Paris to automatically stop or start on marker
points.
Could you split the project out across several submixes? You could break it
into thirty minute chunks -one chunk for each submix. If you moved each
"chunk" ahead to its proper place on the original time line, you could then
use render to disk to get a seamless two track mix when you're done.
Take care, MR

just find where you want to split the tracks and select all and cut on marker
line. Then, move all the first section into a new project. Name it something
else, since it's a new song, or first half... etc!
That's what Aaron was talking about.

I'll probably just find more convenient break points - like mentioned
before, say somewhere around 30min each. It should be easy enough to
find a spot that will allow me to split without creating an obvious
edit point in the finished tracks.
If I would just spend the $300 to get v.3, I could render segments.
But I can't justify that, especially considering the current state of
support. If I'm dropping $300 on a piece of software, there better be
soemone there to support it.
