I open a song file from a Solid State Hard Drive and some waveforms show in the editor window, others say "Building Preview" at bottom left corner and never show...why and how to fix?

song plays and each track plays normally...Listen Tool (8) works fine but no waveform

I have rebooted, restarted etc etc...no other errors

Hi,

Try this below to see if the waveforms all render afterward:

  • Menu Song > Show Media Folder in Finder/Explorer
  • Navigate back one folder to the root song folder
  • Close the song
  • Delete the cache folder
  • Re-open the song and see if builds all of the waveforms
