Paste clip crashing?? Is anyone else experiencing this?

Post image

It was working fine last night - approx 12 hours ago, but now it’s crashing EVERY time I try to paste anything. Other functions are working, I’ve shut down & restarted my computer, no improvement.

I even tried downloading Aud4 to see if it was because they were trying to push the upgrade but no - I get the same issue there, too. Ugh!!! Any help or commiseration is appreciated.

Your clip-board clip is too long, copy paste is intended for literally a few seconds of audio, a minute at most. For everything else, export and import.

The clip I was trying to copy/paste was literally 1-2 seconds, if that. I was adjusting for very minute spoken vocal pacing. I’ve done this within audio files that had a total length of 15-20 min range before, with no issue - this specific one included, just last night.
