An error occurred while preparing to mixdown

Hi,

I'm trying to export a song to a 24-bit wav file, but I'm getting an error message: "An error occurred while preparing to mixdown,"  which doesn't really tell me anything about how to fix the problem.

It works fine for other songs, so it's obviously local to this particular project, but I'm stumped on how to fix it. Any ideas, anybody?


Edit: I'm using Sonar Studio 8.3.1.372

    Uncheck fast bounce and see if it works. Some plugins do not like fast bounce.
    If that doesn't work, then uncheck the 64bit processing engine

    Thanks CJ. Good try, but no.

    I got round the issue by copying all of the files to a new project, then recreating the mix afresh. Fortunately it wasn't a particularly complex track - Guitar, bass, pad, low whistle, vox and harmony vox - so I was able to copy the settings from original mix fairly quickly.
