BUG: Freeze files in self-contained set disappear!

jah · Post by **jah** » Mon Aug 01, 2005 11:03 am

I've experienced this too many times now. I freeze some tracks, then save set as self-contained (in order for the tracks to be freezed when reloading set later), but when reloading set later the freeze files are gone from the sounds-folder where they previously had been stored! (the .asd-files for the freeze files are still in the sounds-folder though).

Update: I get a 'locate sample?' dialog for each of the freeze files when I try to reopen the set. I am using Live 5.0.1 on a P4 2.8GHz PC Laptop running WinXP

Can anyone at Ableton confirm that this bug will be fixed?

I can confirm this, happens both on same machine tracks were frozen on and also if you move the set to another machine.

i also have a similar problem working on a NOT self-contained *.als.
i had frozen some tracks, then i deleted the frozen audio files. next time i opened the application, it asked me for the files, i skiped this and unfroze the tracks.
now each time i load this *.als, it always asks me for the audio files, although there's not a single frozen track in the *.als

Exactly the same thing for me, it happened to me at least 4 times with different files. I get the same messages. The .asd are in the folder but the frozen tracks are missing. I have to re-freeze the tracks again.

I simply saved my work (not self contained) and when I returned to it later on all of my frozen tracks were gone leaving just the als files...so chalk up yet another occurance!

Freezetracks gone..allthou not all of them.
Some of them menage to stay in the arrangement but aint got a clue
why some stay and some disappear(most of them disappear).

And also some tracks seem to be freezed but they dont playback.

Add me to the list.
Every time freeze tracks are gone...???
Make me wonder why putting out a new version if one of the most important
features is not working?

Same here -- also: Some frozen tracks won't play back when a set gets reopened.
