Greetings, Im currently evaluating FMOD Studio by doing many things that usually would break software, so far Wwise has been pretty good, when i import the same clean .wav files 1.35TB into FMOD previously and try to reload the project, next reboot of the PC. the executable loads 99%, freezes, and then loads 100% then the GUI progress bar disappears and doesn’t load anything and the exe sits there with 0% CPU, 1.2GB of RAM and 0% disk activity. tried to reboot and re-open FMOD but fails now. ---

Apologies for the delayed response. I’m not sure that importing _terabytes_ worth of audio at once falls under the expected scope of our audio import functionality, but I have flagged some tests internally around importing large amounts of audio to see whether there’s anything we can improve on there. ---

I managed to work around this by clearing my FMOD cache in my appdata, and some other locations I can’t recall, currently on 2.03 of FMOD and it hands for a bit before it decides to work again ---

Glad to hear you managed to get it working again - I’ve noted your solution internally.
