  • Importing wavs from Pro Tools-huge silence at beginning?

A friend and I are trading wavs.
He is new to PT and bounces to wav real-time as an export method.
The waves come in with enormous silence, no wave shown, just dots, at the beginning.
It's simple enough to find it (at about the 15 min mark) and move it back to 0 but he does not know why it's happening and I don't know what to tell him. 
When I send one it's ok on his.
Is there a fast bounce like Sonar that should be done instead?
Is this maybe just a thing that happens between PT and Sonar?
anyone?

I think Roby is right; it has something to do with Broadcast Wave Time-Stamps. HOWEVER, it might be as simple as UN-checkihg the box to "Always Import Broadcast Waves at their Timestamp". If that box is checked, I would unclick it first and try again.
 
Find it at EDIT > PREFERENCES > FILE > AUDIO DATA.
 
Let us know if that works!
 
Cheers,

He couldn't find the terms you referred to.
I think he needs to go to the help function if he doesn't have a support group like this one.

Yea, sometimes Protools > SONAR does that.  I had to import into sound forge before bouncing over to SONAR.

Sorry about the lack of formatting, I thought maybe the forum would support Firefox by now...
