I seem to be unable to load certain audio wave files into a buffer~ 

if I load a file via opendialog/pattr/sprintf replace %s 0 -1 2/buffer~ 

It works perfectly, though, if I use a message with replace 0 -1 2, and I open the file directly.

This happens only with certain wave files, NOT all of them.

I tried changing location, file names, default program to open with, read/write preferences.

Nothing serious, but it is curious that it works one way and not the other, and that it happens only with a few wave files.

The files open regularly in any other audio app.

I want to use the replace %s 0 -1 2 message because I want to be able to keep 2 ch in the buffer.

I have not been able to trace a topic with a similar problem.

I constantly get an error message.

Works perfectly with AIFF.

I bet the ones which don't work have spaces in their name...

really curious, even renamed, without spaces, or anything.

No, I simply had to convert 134 loops from WAVE to AIFF.

Boring, but I had a box of Leibniz with dark chocolate to keep me up!

Its the path you have to be careful about, if there is a space in it 

you'd still need to convert it with [tosymbol].

The other possibility is that you maybe didn't take care of the correct 

extension? On Mac and windows its possible to hide the extension. Then 

if you have a MySound.wav.wav it looks as if you have the extension set 

It should not be necessary to convert the files, Max is happy with wave
