greg.leacock Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 When I bring in 48kHz files to my 44.1 file, I get the spinning wheel of death and have to force quit. I'm trying a project in 44.1 because when I would use 48 and try to import WAV files that friends had recorded on GarageBand, I would get the spinning wheel of death. So either way, I'm not able to do what I need to do and it's driving me crazy! Any help would be much appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplets Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Where are those files stored? ExFat drive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 1. Create a new empty project. 2. Choose File > Project Settings > Audio and choose the desired sample rate. 3. Choose File > Save. Organize my project as: Folder. Copy the following files into your project: Audio files. 4. Drag and drop one single audio file in the Project file browser. Does that work?

greg.leacock Posted May 7, 2020 Author Share Posted May 7, 2020 Will give that a try now! Thanks for the quick reply.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg.leacock Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Just tried it now. When I put the files into the browser, I'm getting the same freezing. It didn't get to the not responding phase, but the cursor has the green plus arrow and then nothing happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Where are those 48k files coming from, what is their format exactly, what is their bit depth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltranxx Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Hi there, do you guys have any solutions for this? I've searched the whole internet and can't find any solution for this. Logic just cant convert sample rate. My system is 10.15.5, logic is 10.3.3. I'm really upset and desperate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakobP Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 The original poster didn't reply to any of the questions asked (regarding format, source, etc), replying to those would help determine the problem... If you try Davids step by step instructions, what happens ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltranxx Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Hi JakobP, thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, nothing changes. I am going to upgrade the system to 10.15.7 first and try if it works then. If not im going to upgrade logic to 10.6 and try then too. I'll write here what happens after these steps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherking Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 you need to answer the question about the files! would be helpful info... you could also try converting those files in a different app; i often use XLD (free) to do this, ie wav to mp3; but you could do wav 48 to wav 44.... https://sourceforge.net/projects/xld/ there are other apps out there as well...

voltranxx Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Since there was the case but no answer around, i literally was sure that this was all about software. The system update didn't do anything, but updating logic solved it (i updated the osx just to be able to upgrade logic btw). Apparently some versions don't work with each other.

Some versions… of Logic? They all work with each other… older versions may simply get confused about parts of projects that come from newer feature sets. But an audio file is an audio file is an audio file. Could be there was some other type of bug that updating fixed, but I don't think the version history would intrinsically be the issue. Either way, I guess things worked out for you, so (insert shrug here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What version of Logic did you update to? I'm on 10.2.3 (on OS X 10.15.7) and I've noticed that Logic freezes/crashes when dropping a file into a project that is a different sample rate (at the moment, 48kHz files into a 44.1kHz project). I have my audio files stored on an external SSD drive formatted with APFS. Out of curiosity, does the drive where you store your audio files happen to have Google Drive pointing to it? I've noticed that Logic DOES NOT like it when accessing the same drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
