Subject:Acid Music Song Length Limit? Posted by: filmaker Date:1/28/2000 1:46:00 AM Is there a song length limit in Acid Music 2.0? When I drag the end point of the loop region it only goes up to about 1:30. Is there another way to adjust the loop region, or is this a limitiation of the program? Thanks!

I don't know if this will be part of your problem or not, but ACID is a RAM hog. So if you don't have a lot, your resources will get used up very fast. I have 128Mb and a song with a lot of large samples with effects applied will put my system to the test. A word to the wise - save often. It would be a shame to lose that once in a lifetime mix to a system lock-up! Good luck. Mark Whitehead wrote: >>Is there a song length limit in Acid Music 2.0?

I don't have as much RAM as you do, but I wouldn't think that this would be a problem even before I lay any tracks down. Looks like this is one for tech support. Thanks again!

In that case, what you're seeing is expected behavior. Throw in 1 1/2 minutes if loops, and you'll see that the program lets you go for as long as you need to. ACID itself doesn't impose any restrictions of song/file size, but Windows does have a 2 gig limit for .wav files. Hope this helps you.
