Tallmaleuk Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Hi there, Since upgrading to Logic Pro x 10.5 and Catalina I keep getting this error message: One or more multiple audio files changed in length! As a result 3 audio regions changed in length or content position I am not changing any audio files manually so I dont understand why this is happening. Does anyone have a fix for this? Its really annoying! Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
des99 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Did you google the error message? This is worth reading: https://www.davehofmann.de/when-logic-destroys-your-audio-files/ I've no idea if this bug is still there in 10.5, but it may well be...

Tallmaleuk Posted May 21, 2020 Author Share Posted May 21, 2020 Hi there yes I did Google this error message but I could not find a solution. Lots of people seemed to experience this problem going back at least 8 years. I only experienced it for the first when upgrading to 10.5 in the last week or so. I also upgraded to Catalina at about the same time. Before that I had used Logic for about 7 years and I had never encountered this problem before.

des99 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Me neither, I've never encountered it - but at least there's fixes for the corruption of the audio files if you need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallmaleuk Posted May 21, 2020 Author Share Posted May 21, 2020 Yes that is encouraging to know that there is a fix for the corrupted files. I also spoke to Apple tech support about this issue but they did not seem to know anything about it despite there being an ongoing problem with some users for nearly a decade.

Tallmaleuk Posted May 21, 2020 Author Share Posted May 21, 2020 There is one more strange thing I have noticed that some of the midi tracks are also distorted too when I play them back. The only way I can get them to play properly is by creating a brand new software track and then copying the midi data to the new software track.

AlexJT Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Any further updates on this problem? I have a new Mac mini running Catalina 10.15.6. with Logic Pro X 10.5.1. On Disk Utility, it says hard drive type APFS volume. (Should be original factory settings, as I didn’t make any changes.) I didn’t have any problems for the first month or two that I used this system and program, but I just started getting the error message. Thank you.

Tallmaleuk Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 Hi Alex, Unfortunately I havent found a fix for this yet! And I am not sure what is causing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logicben Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 @Alex Since your hard drive is an APFS volume, which should be ok, I'm wondering if you transfered some audio files from an other volume or if you are syncing files via any cloud service (edit: including apples iCloud Drive).

Sahel Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 (edited) Hi, same error for me and this is not the first time this year. This happens when I make recordings with comps. Sometimes a previous recording is erased (it is present but no longer any sound) and if I save and restart the project, I have the error that appears, in addition to having lost the recording... It's really scary! Edited September 10, 2023 by Frédéric Modine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really scary! Do you move/delete/rename audio files from the Finder? What hard disk are you saving your projects to, and how is it formatted?

After that if I save my project, close and reopen it, I have this error. I have a M1 MacBook with a internal SSD (same of my system) Edited September 12, 2023 by Frédéric Modine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
