Hi Eamon . .thanks for your note
Yeah it shouldn't matter a clilp or entire program. When I select any audio cllip and send it to a ST project, it will save the changed file in the folder I assigned it, but with pre-meditated malace aforthought, it will not update the audio track from which it was sent, mainly the timeline.
What we are forced to do is put a sound beep at the beginning of the track and export it via CD or direct trasnfer to Pro Tools then re-import it. Or if I want, I can save it as a Quicktime file, get it from the folder and sync it back into the time line.
I have tried trashing the preferences, of ST and FCP, so my only other conclusion is the profound ignorance of the operator.
