Sometimes the the wave that's supposed to be there isn't and it is replaced with a completely different wave, sometimes it's a copy of a wave that's allready been used somewhere else in the project. I'm using a PC. It's pretty fast, pentium 4, 2.8 ghz and 512 ddr ram. I only use it for recording but this problem is driving me crazy because i can never finish a project because everything is moved or not there. If anyone out there knows the solution please help!!! Thank you!

Well let me tell you something...in older versions of samplitude there used to be a bug. If you use 2 different files that have the same name, at the same VIP, Samplitude used to do what you are describing...IE:

c:musicbed.wav
and
c:audiobed.wav

If you put these 2 files in the same vip, it doesn't matter that they have different audio recordings, Samplitude will think they are the same, causing a mess in your VIP.

The best you can do is to keep all the files that you need into the same folder and doing a really clean labeling like:

"Name Of The Project - Instrument"

Be careful with the "delete unused parts" function because it works destructivelly and there's no undo, so if you are sharing between 2 or 3 vips, and in one of those you use the delete unused parts functions, the remaining 2 will not work.
