I’m currently doing a facial animation and I’m stuck at trying to import the audio into Maya. Everytime after importing the audio, whenever I try to put the audio into the timeline or into Trax, Maya just crash with the message “Fatal Error. Attempting to save in...”.

The audio is a wav format with sampling rate of 44,100. I’ve make sure that the animation preference is in real-time. I’m just not sure what is wrong. For now I’m still a few weeks away from deadline.

Most likely it was saved in a compression format unsupported by Maya.
Did you create the .wave file?
Do you have any audio editor software you can save the file out into a raw .wav format with?

When your going thru the ‘save’ dialog, it should prompt you for the compression/codec to use (PCM, MP3, etc.)

Awesome, and good to know.
Thank you for sharing your solution.
