Solved SF Audio Studio Closing on Export

Hey, all, longtime Sound Forge user here, but this is my first time using SF Audio Studio. I'm using it strictly for its ACX export wizard as I'm currently helping someone prep an audio book to send to Audible. All working well, but the program closes each time I export a file, and with no batch processes available in this program, reopening it dozens of times is a headache. I've searched through the preferences and options and can't find anything addressing this. What am I missing?

Hi seanmccoy

I am not an expert on Sound Forge and have never exported using ACX.
I recommend you post your question on the official Magix forums, where you will get many more people with more experience using Sound Forge to read your message.
When you post on the Magix forums, make sure to tell them the exact version of Sound Forge you are using.

Thanks, Derek. I had already posted on the Magix forum, with no responses. It doesn't seem to be a very active place. I've also sent a support request directly to Magix, so we'll see if their support team is better than their lousy support web design would imply. 

Which exact version of Sound Forge are you using ?
And which build version ?
Open program and go to Help/About to find version and build version.

Please also know, that most software companies, have most of their staff on annual leave at this time of the year.
Which means support is very thin at the moment, until we get to the end of January.

I have never heard of the ACX Export Wizard.
What steps do you take to access this feature, so I can try to replicate what is happening?

This is in Sound Forge Audio Studio 15. I have Sound Forge Pro 14, but I believe the ACX Check and Export functions are also in Sound Forge Pro 15. In Audio Studio, it's in the Instant Action section. But I heard from Magix support, and he believes it is a bug. He said he was about to go into a meeting with the programmers and would bring it up, so we can expect it to be fixed in an update. Hopefully soon. 

Thanks for reporting back.
I only have versions 14 of Sound Forge Audio Studio and Sound Forge Pro, and couldn't find the settings you were talking about.
It's obviously a new function only in versions 15.

Anyway, sounds like you are on the right track now and Magix will be able to help / release bug fix.

Yes, Craig at Magix confirmed it was a bug and will be addressed in an upcoming patch. The ACX presets were introduced in version 15 of both programs.
