tdehan Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) I am trying to add some vocal tracks that my friends sent me yesterday to a project I've been working on. Typically I can drag and drop the .wav files into my project. However, that is not working now. I've tried this with a couple projects I am working on and cannot drag and drop the vocal .wav files into the project. When i go to File / Import, Audio is greyed out and I can't import from there either. This has all worked fine in the past. What is happening now?

scook Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 It's likely one of two things: the wav files are importing far to the right on the timeline or dragging files from Windows Explorer into a DAW running as administrator. For (1), turn off "Always Import Broacast Waves at Their Timestamp" in Preferences > File > Audio Data For (2), do not run the DAW as administrator or drag the files from the media browser. Windows does not permit drag and drop from Windows Explorer into a program running as administrator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To enable import from the menu, make sure an audio track is selected first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdehan Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 The issue is solved. All of the vocal track .wav files I was trying to import were corrupted. Once they sent me new .wav files all is working fine. Both drag and drop and import. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
