"Error in recalculating SubMix data, the file could not be found".

Do the following:

- Open audio window, clear all the light colored submix files,
- Create a new folder, set the record path to it,
- Save the project.

Now your update of submixes will work again.

**Submix Updating Tip**

By Craig Anderton

----
You may have a situation where there are multiple SubMix files in the same directory on your computer. Should PARIS get confused, updating the SubMix may result in an error message.
To avoid problems when updating SubMixes:

- Create a new directory for each Project as you work.
- Keep all the files related to the Project here.

This eliminates the possibility that two Projects could reference the same SubMix files. It also makes backing up the files related to a specific Project much easier.
If you do multiple versions of a Project (such as a 2:00 minute version and a 5:00 minute version), create an additional directory for just the SubMixes within the main Project directory. Your directory setup would look something like this:

{My Project} - contains all audio files for this Project

{My Project} {Mix 1} - contains just the SubMix files for version 1

{My Project} {Mix 2} - contains just the SubMix files for version 2

If you get into a situation where you get an error message when trying to update your SubMix, you may need to delete the old SubMix file. To do this:

1) In the Audio Window, select the SubMix file to be deleted (identified by names written in grey text).
2) Clear this item from your Project by using the "Clear Items" command found in the Edit menu. This eliminates the SubMix from the Project. The actual file is still on your hard disk.
3) To remove the file from your hard disk, go to your computer desktop. (you do not have to quit the PARIS application)
4) Navigate to the directory that contains the SubMix audio file (it will have the same name as the one you just cleared in the Audio Window above).
5) Drag this audio file to the trash
6) Return to the PARIS application
7) From the Project Window, set a new Record Path to the new Mix directory that you created in the steps in part one, above.
8) Update your SubMix.
