Gant Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Hey all, So I recently decided to move my Logic Pro X (10.3.1) projects to an external hard drive to optimize space on my laptop and started running into this weird issue/bug where whenever I try to add mp3 files to a project stored on the external drive, Logic will fail to do so and give me the attached error message. I imagine it's attempting to convert the file to .aif so it can be stored in the project file itself, but I don't know why it's giving the error. Also, note that this problem is quite universal. Whether I am trying to import audio, drag in audio, or add audio using the pop-up menu I encounter this problem. Also, I have tried directly storing projects on my external HD and using a symbolic link leading to the HD that took the place of the original logic folder. Neither worked. At this point, I'm planning on simply moving older projects over to the HD and keeping all WIPs on my laptop but I would really appreciate any advice/answers on what's going on. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulcristo Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 From the screenshot, it looks like you're trying to convert an AIF file, not an mp3, unless I'm misunderstanding the process. I get this error when the audio file is corrupted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplets Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 What about avoiding any type of brackets in the file name and using underscore instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
