Avid has updated Pro Tools and Pro Tools HD to version 12.7.1. The new version includes a new HD Driver and includes a host of fixes and enhancements:
Editing
- Deleting automation on a frozen track no longer deletes underlying clips as well (PT-224661)
- Clearing a time selection that begins before a fade out within a clip and ends outside of the clip, after the fade, no longer fails to clear the fade out as a part of operation (PT-223910)
- UI stuttering in the Edit window no longer occurs when adjusting clip gain (PT-224370)
- Fixed a case where the new playlist created by an overlap made while a track is in Waveform track view would be created in the wrong playlist order (PT-222733)
- Restored the behavior of Insertion Follows Playback during Pre-Roll that existed prior to Pro Tools 12.6. The insertion point is once again placed where the play head stops during the pre-roll (PT-220982)
- Fixed a case where multi-channel clip groups would break if they were dragged over an Aux, Master, or VCA track (PT-224183)
Clip Effects
- Fixed a case where applying cursor focus to the Clip Effects view could lock out keyboard input (PT-224379)
- Fixed a case where focus was not correctly restored to the Clip Effects view after switching between Pro Tools and another app (PT-223549)
- Using the keyboard shortcut to access the Clip Effects view no longer incorrectly focuses a field in a text entry state (PT-224091)
Automation
- Fixed a case where automation could be deleted without warning when changing the width of a track’s main output (PT-224495)

- Fixed cases where -9155 Automation Too Dense Errors would be thrown by sawtooth-like automation within a very small number of samples (PT-223818)
- Fixed a case where track volume settings (volume levels without written automation) between +6dB and +12dB would be received as +6dB by collaborators in a collaboration (PT-224848)
Soundbase and Workspace
- Files auditioned in the workspace while the Conform to Session Tempo setting is enabled are now correctly delay compensated according to the current system delay (PT-202849)
- Relinking and indexing of files that are more than six or seven folders deep no longer fails (PT-220471)

- The Tags pane in Soundbase no longer fails to update dynamically when removing and returning a folder with audio to the Sound Libraries location (PT-223825)
- Fixed a case where the contents of the Sound Libraries location may not be indexed properly after being renamed and then renamed again to “Sound Libraries” (PT-223964)
- Fixed a case where the clip outline drawn to show placement of a file dragged from the Workspace browser would appear on the wrong track if there are hidden tracks in the document (PT-224050)
- Fixed a specific UI glitch that could occur when dragging and dropping audio files to the Edit Window while using a Windows OS (PT-224104)
- Fixed several tagging issues in Soundbase that could occur while using non-English language characters

Crashes and Errors
- Fixed a crash that could occur when starting playback shortly after any use of the audition path, particularly following an AudioSuite audition and render (PT-223588)

- The Hardware Setup window is no longer launched unexpectedly after updating the HD Driver without first uninstalling the previous HD Driver version (PT-224011)
