Dragging file into Pro Tools results in just noise?

This is usually due to the file being released on the PT timeline before BaseHead has finished transcoding it. 

When DnD a file to PT it is important to hold the file until you note BaseHead has completed the transcoding. If you release the file in PT before it has finished transcoding it will produce white noise. This usually occurs when you make a selection of a file which is a large amount and takes some time to transcode. Dragging a whole file is usually fine and small selections usually transcode in the time it takes to get to PT.
