Common issues
File won't open in Pro Tools
This can occur if the PTX file is from a newer version of Pro Tools than the one installed.
- Ensure you have the latest version of Pro Tools installed.
- Check compatibility and update if necessary.
Missing audio files
PTX files do not contain audio data, so missing audio files can prevent playback.

- Use the 'Relink' function in Pro Tools to reconnect them.
Security note
