See updates below for changes in Pro Tools 2022.5, 2022.6 and 2022.7

While Avid is looking into this issue, we have found a work-around for macOS users by changing two keyboard shortcuts. This update should only be used while you are running an EdiLoad re-conform. For Windows users we recommend staying with Pro Tools 2021.12.

Updating Pro Tools Keyboard Shortcuts for macOS

Select the menu item: Setup > Keyboard Shortcuts… to open the new Pro Tools Keyboard Shortcuts window. In the search field enter 'with all auto' to display the following functions:

The key combinations for the commands 'Copy with All Automation Playlists' and 'Cut with All Automation Playlists' need to be updated. Double-click the 'Key Combination' field and press the following three keys on the keyboard:

• For 'Copy with All Automation Playlists' press: Command + Control + c
• For 'Cut with All Automation Playlists' press: Command + Control + x

The settings above will allow EdiLoad to re-conform your Pro Tools session.

Once your re-conform is complete, make sure to set these keyboard shortcuts back to their default settings by clicking the Reset buttons. We have noticed that this is required else other copy and cut functions will not work as expected. For example, with the work-around set, the clip name field will also require the modified copy and cut key combinations rather than the standard macOS Command + C/X, thereby breaking the EdiCue function that gets and sets the name of a clip while creating ADR cues.

Update for Pro Tools 2022.5

Avid have resolved the default keyboard shortcuts issue described above in Pro Tools 2022.5 so the work-around above can be ignored when using Pro Tools 2022.5 and above. However, there is still an outstanding issue for Windows users.

End result: The EdiLoad re-conform function is compatible with Pro Tools 2022.5 on macOS but not on Windows that Avid need to resolve.

Update for Pro Tools 2022.6

Avid have resolved the outstanding keyboard shortcut issue for Windows users in Pro Tools 2022.6, but have now introduced a new keyboard shortcut issue for macOS users. If you need to use Pro Tools 2022.6 and are running on macOS, see the workaround below.

End result: The EdiLoad re-conform function is compatible with Pro Tools 2022.6 on Windows but not on macOS.

Update for Pro Tools 2022.7

Avid have not provided a fix in Pro Tools 2022.7 for the bug that was created in 2022.6.

End result: The EdiLoad re-conform function is compatible with Pro Tools 2022.7 on Windows but not on macOS.

Workaround for Pro Tools 2022.6 and 2022.7 users on macOS

Here are the default 'paste' keyboard shortcuts for Pro Tools 2022.6 on macOS:

The first 'Paste To Current Automation Type' shortcut has changed in Pro Tools 2022.6 and is not compatible with EdiLoad. The key combination required for this shortcut (Command + Control + v) is assigned to the second 'Paste To Current Automation Type' shortcut.

To workaround this, assign a new key combination to the second 'Paste To Current Automation Type' shortcut. This isn't used by EdiLoad, but allows us to assign the default key combination to the correct command. Now assign the Command + Control + v key combination to the first 'Paste To Current Automation Type' shortcut as follows:

With the keyboard shortcuts setup in this way, EdiLoad will be able to re-conform your session.
