DP 8 and REX 2 files--can't import...

Post by greg328 »

Anybody else having trouble drag-dropping REX 2 files into the tracks window on DP 8? Was super-simple with DP 7 and earlier. Just drag onto an empty stereo audio track.

With the new version, I can't drag-drop or import into the Soundbites window..

Any idea why? I can't seem to find a toggle preference that would disable it...

The REX library file itself is 32-bit....64-bit import does not work in logic either, which suggests to me that this is Phead's deal.

FYI only the import function itself is broken...you can import the file in 32-bit and switch to 64-bit and the file will still work

Ok that seems like a good workaround. Thanks for the feedback. Greg
