har-bal died

Post by timbo »

Hi guys.

I went to use Har-bal today, edited a wav, hit play and it (har-bal) just disappeared (closed).
I was able to save the tweaked wav (_eq) but the program just died when I tried to play the file.

It's been working. But, all of a sudden, it doesn't.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Tim

Which version are you using? Have you changed computers recently? Older versions of Har-bal suffer from a problem like this when run on Vista or Windows 7. If that's the case then you need version 2.3 r3.

The other possibility is that your virus scanner has deleted an important part of Har-Bal on the incorrect assumption it is a virus. We have had continual issues with McAffees heuristic scanning coming up with the wrong conclusion and deleting it.

cheers,


Paavo.

Thanks Paavo.

It's version 2.3 r.3 on a newish Win7 machine.
It's been running fine though. Till now.
Just, out of the blue started not working.

I don't use any virus scanner as my DAW is not interneted. (wow, a new word)

Thanks
