I’ll be damned. This is my first REAL issue, in 18 years.
All of a sudden, Renoise have problems loading samples.
Loading a 1MB piano sample, takes nearly two minutes. No matter if I double-click in file browser. Drag and drop from file browser or drag and drop from system.
It does not matter where I load from. Internal drives, external drives or network drives.
Opening songs (with hundreds of samples) is not a problem.
I can also load preset multi-samples and Renoise instruments (that conatin samples) I have created.
VSTi does not have an issue.
I can’t find any updates or changes that have occurred recently
No. It happens for all samples. The piano was just an example. Seems the size is irrelevant. The worst case, after I wrote the topic, was a 61Kb sample, that loaded for nearly five minutes.
I can preview the samples just fine. As soon as I try to load it, Renoise goes unresponsive.
I completely removed Renoise and reinstalled it. Problem is still there. I do suspect there is something going on with the system, and Renoise is not to blame. However. The loading of samples in Renoise, is the only issue I have encountered. Working with samples anywhere else, works just fine. Eg. loading a sample in a Renoise instance of Phase Plant.
Something must have happened over night. Cause everything was working perfectly the day before.
Seems weird, there are no matter with other softwares?
I would advice to check at first if there are no malwares or other process that can slow your computer.
