**ALL of the Realtrack "raw" files are 44.1, regardless of whether or not they are .wav or .wma format.**

The reason it takes so much longer for you to load Realtracks in RB at 48KHz is that RealBand is most likely having to CONVERT each Realtrack file to 48 from 44.1 on each loading attempt.

Perhaps PG will come up with a way to work it with other bitrates and bitdepths that does not require that conversion, or works faster, but unless and until that ever happens, it is what it is. They're always surprising me, though, with out-of-the-box thinking and design to solve other problems, maybe this will be one of them some day, don't know.

But FWIW - your complaint might be better heard if posted as a Wishlist Item on the Wishlist Forum.
