Nashville stops loading after 72mb

[Tommy]

Any ideas on why?

Happened recently, has been working fine ever since I reinstalled after a drive failure.

The other kits loads just fine (Pop/Rock, Coctail, Vintage Rock)
Tried updating it with the latest version from your page (which I am fairly certain I did after first installing) – made no difference.

Should I reinstall Nashville?

As they haven’t changed I can’t quite see why, but here they are:

-AMD Phenom II X3, 2.8ghz
-4Gb DDR2 memory
-500Gb SATA for OS & Misc
-500GB SATA for Apps & Data
-ATI Radeon HD4870X2 gfx

-Running Windows XP SP3
-M-Audio USB Micro soundcard.

Is this happening in Toontrack Solo as well as your sequencer?

A reinstall of Nashville wouldn’t be a time consuming effort and it would be my first choice of things to do. Also, check for updates to the Nashville EZX.

Just to add to Dave: Perform an uninstall of Nashville, perform a disk check, defragment (optional) and reinstall

Ok,
-moved off the EZX_Nashville to temp (in case there were corrupt files in there, the reinstall would not happen to reside on the same blocks)
-Checked disk for errors (there were none)
-Defragmented
-Uninstalled
-Reinstalled
    -Stopped loading at 71mb
-Ran the Nashville updater
   -Stopped loading at 72mb.

Same behaviour in Ableton Live as in Toontrack Solo.

This is very annoying, as I’m mixing down ~30 tracks right now for a gig on saturday, many of which uses Nashville.

I’ve tried copying the EZX_Nashville folder off to another location to see if Windows complained about broken files. All good.

The folder itself is:
Size: 957MB (1 004 495 212 bytes) big.
Size on disk: 976 (1 024 315 392 bytes)

Contains 9668 Files, 11 Folders

Which host are you using?
Could you try downloading another host (like Reaper) and see if it loads in there?
It might be memory related (maxed), do you use the /3G switch?

If the files are not broken something else must have changed between the working and the current situation.

Just wondering if it could be some sort of bit depth conversion issue. Could you try it in your host at a 16 bit bit depth and see if that solves it? Also, does the problem manifest using different kit pieces? IOW, change the snare and see if that helps. Also if you haven’t tried it, resist the temptation to trigger the kit pieces while the kit is loading and see if that changes anything.

Have you tried going through the default kit that loads up, setting all the drum types to “none” and then back to something else and see if they load normal…. not that this is the way you want to work… but it may reset something in Nashville….

Mac Studio M1 Max, RAM 64 GB, 1TB Drive, OSX 12.x/13.x and Windows 10 (VM)
DAW: Studio One Pro (always up to date)
DTX Express III (Extreme triggers), Nektar LX88
OWC Thunderbay Mini (4 X 1TB Sata SSD), Express 4M2 (4 X 2TB M.2 SSD), Envoy Express (1TB M.2 SSD)
Presonus Quantum, Faderport & Faderport 8
Black Lion Sparrow Mk2 A/D, FMR-RNP-RNC, MIDI Xpress 128, BM5A, KRK VXT4, Equator D5
2020 Macbook Pro 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD Audio(mobile rig)

Using Pro Tools M-Powered, Ableton Live, Reaper, Tracktion, Toontrack Solo. it ain’t the host 🙂

I’ll do that, and also look into bit-conversion type problems.
Thanks,

Bit depth is highly unlikely to cause any problems.
Any Anti-Virus program at the same time?
Which version number is reported for the Nashville EZX in the Help menu?

Nashville 1.1.3 it says.

Changing bit depth (to 16) and bitrate (to 48) didn’t help.

No antivirus installed on my studio computer, but I occasionally run MCAfee Security Scan.

Tried that, didn’t help.

Thanks for the tip anyways 🙂

in summary: Nashville loads, up to ca 72mb. Ie: All kit pieces EXCEPT toms! (and possibly less layers on the others, but atleast they make a sound)
