Catastrophic Failure trying to Mix Down

26 tracks, a few track folders, 10 Busses.

Has been working fine throughtout the editing and mixing phases while working on this song. Today I tried to Export mix down as usual- 44.1/32 bit WAVE file to be mastered. Takes it quite some time to mix down all of a sudden then I get the SONAR X1 PRODUCER  Fault PopUp window showing "An internal error occured while processing the mix down. The operation was unsuccessful.
Catastrophic Failure."

The only thing I did today was some minor Volume adjustments with the sliders and I did add Track Folders. This was the only change.  Any Ideas?

    Try again after a reboot.

    OKay thats weird, I removed tracks from a couple of the folders and deleted the Track Folders-Mixed down Okay this time.  Havent had this happen before. Could it be a bug, not sure but getting back to work on the music side.

    This is a long shot but if you have memory that is not perfect a corruption can occur. Test out your memory.

    Thanks John for the Quick Response!!!.

    Deleting them folders done the trick. I use Track Folders a bunch and never had this occur. 

    Ill run a mem test later to see what it comes up with. This computer doesnt ever see the internet or anything like that. Strictly X1 and transfer with Flash Drives or ??? is handy at the time LOL

    I create a master loop back & record the mix back into a new "Print Master" track. Coming from a PT background it's habit.
    It avoids issues like this, & allows you to stop, make changes, & continue.
