I'm sorry for being confusing. Maybe I am confused and saying it the wrong way. Anyway, it seems it started out crashing on occasion and progressively got worse. It began freezing when I would try to fill a track with a drum pattern after creating and saving it from the drum grid editor.

Yesterday, I tried to save one and it totally shut it down.

What is weird is that I have a basic beat saved that I developed a couple of years ago. I use it on most every song recording. I can fill that into a track with no problem. It seems it is when I use the drum grid editor I have the problems.

I hope this is much clearer to you.

Thanks, Andrew
