I always have had an audio track created first (I never tried dragging the VST over to a blank slate). Maybe that's why it worke for me. I am also set at 16-bit, 44,100 kbps, since that's what all the RealTrack generated audio is (as I understand it).
Thanks a lot John and Brian.I have tried running 16 bit down from 24 and then it worked even using 48khz.Only problem now is,as it crashes my editors keys(configured for studio one) i can't write some of the chords in,although i did manage to get a few major chords in eventually so i generated and it dragged over splitting tracks as it should.
Funny though went out of s1 and back in and in the same boat!!! The joys of an upgrade!!!
