Hello all,
So I recently just made a new desktop computer and installed all the software I was using previously on my laptop. Everything seems to be working fine except for the fact Reaper crashes every single time it's about to play an imported .wav file.
However, it seems to only crash with specific drum samples I have (which work perfectly fine on my laptop). I tried downloading some .wav sound effects and they play fine in Reaper, furthermore it can play back .wav files Reaper rendered itself.
I've tried downloading previous versions of Reaper with no avail.
EDIT: I've made an interesting discovery. The crash report said I had a problem with "elastique2.dll", which I found out is part of Reaper's pitch correction. So when I imported the .wav file rather than "adjusting the files tempo to match the project" I just let it play "at source tempo", and voila, it works! However, it's still relatively useless if the file is playing a different tempo than the rest of my project -.-"
If anyone has any advice or suggestions I'm all ears!
Thanks a ton,
Be well
