Right now I'm just using it to record vocals. I import the audio file of the beat. Then I record all of the vocals in the other audio channels. everything is fine when I'm done, oh yeah, I'm saving the songs to an external harddrive. When I go to open Logic back up, and open the previously worked song it gives me the message: "'name of beat.aif' - what kind of file is this". Then when the song opens up the imported audio file (of the beat) is grey and does not play. When I try to re-import the beat ( the same way I did originally, the way that worked the 1st time) it gives me the same message. Whats going on? can anyone help me out? I don't know if I'm saving the songs in the wrong manner or something. Thanks to anyone that can help me out.

I did not find any solution for this - I thought It could be because of the frequency of particular instruments... But it is still a mistery for the moment... Let me know if you get an issue This post has been edited by petitmassif: Tue 13 Feb 2007, 00:17 -------------------- Une solution qui vous démolit vaut mieux que n'importe quelle incertitude (B.

When repaired you will be able to play them as well as before Good luck -------------------- Une solution qui vous démolit vaut mieux que n'importe quelle incertitude (B.

But I will give that freeware a look. thanks again.
