LOCKING UP

STEVEN-PRESS wrote on 8/30/2023, 8:46 PM

Music Maker keeps locking up and freezing on my computer. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the DAW. It is random, it will be working fine and then out of nowhere my computer freezes. I have to reboot the computer and start the program over. If I am in the middle of working and I forget to save it when it freezes all my work is gone.

The other issue is when I receive STEMS from another DAW it doesn't show up as a wav file. It however still plays the STEM sound. When I import to MM all I see is a straight line.

Hi

Please do not hijack another users topic which has nothing to do with your question.

Sounds like an audio driver problem. What audio interface and driver are you using?

Sometimes Music Maker will not display the waveform of a file in the stereo representation mode. You can disable this via the View > Arranger menu.
