Do you use an external sample editor from within Logic? Operating System...etc. Long shot: Using a text editor (ie: notepad) open WIN.INI and look for the Logic section. There may be an entry: SampleEditor= followed by a path listing. Try deleting this line. ============================================== To set a path to an external editor: With an audio file available on the arrange page, hold down the "Alt" and double click on the file, Logic will ask you to locate the executable file. howard
