Last night, I hung Tracktion for the first time ever. I was doing something I probably shouldn't have - While an edit was playing, I was ctrl-dragging copies of final mix to other destination tracks (since I still haven't figured out how to do an aux effects buss with racks) and all of a sudden, screen movements slowed down, started getting the ugly noises of a CPU in overload, then the screen went blank (actually it did several weird things on screen) - with the CPU overload noise in an infinite loop. You know the sound- that of a very short clip getting played back in rapid loop.
I had to physically power down and wait for the machine to boot through the checkdisk stuff.
When I opened Tracktion and tried opening the edit I was last working on, it found that I had done more since the save (must have some kind of autosave) and asked if I wanted to open that. Yes was the answer, and there was maybe 3 or 4 minutes of work that weren't recovered.
I've got to learn what these racks do (yeah I've been through the tutorial at adbe.org or tracktionfaction.com but never with T being live).

First crash with Tracktion - but it all worked out o.k.

Doing aux busses in T is very easy.
1. Create a rack, called aux send1. In the rack you just connect the audio inputs to the audio outputs.
2. Put the created rack on the tracks where you want the sends. If you put them before the volume/balance control you have a pre-fader send and if you put them after it you have a post fader send.
3. Make a new track and call it aux buss 1.
4. Put the same rack (aux send1) on the aux track and put your effect after that send.
If you want a second aux send, just copy the aux send1 as aux send 2 and do the same, with another aux2 track.
Hope this helps,
