For more details check out our article You Can Use Emojis And Symbols In Pro Tools Sessions - Here's How. We did discover that you can use Emojis and Symbols. Apparently, they may be used when naming playlists but be aware that they will be replaced by an underscore (_) if they make their way to an audio file name via recording, bouncing, consolidating, etc.Īs a consequence, it is recommended that you try and avoid using these characters when naming sessions and playlists in Pro Tools.Īlso, avoid using these illegal characters in external hard drives and networked volume names, naming drives and folders as well as using forward / and back \ slashes and connecting external drives sharing the same exact name. These should not be used in session or project names or media names. It can be the same issue as Error 2 in that you could have 2 drives with the same name, but AAE Error -35 is more likely to occur because one of your drives has one or more macOS illegal characters in the name. This usually pops up when launching or opening a session with Pro Tools on a macOS Pro Tools system. Along similar lines, as AAE Error 2, there is AAE Error -35.
