How do I fix Logic Pro Stem Splitter saying file doesn’t exist?

Good afternoon:

Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than I can help me here. I have a MacBook Air M1, 8GB, Sequoia 15.6. I am using Logic Pro 11.2.2. I am receiving the following when trying to use the “STEM Splitter”: The “file name” doesn’t exist. I have checked everything to make sure that the software see’s the file and …nothing! I tried renaming etc…What could be the problem?

Thank you for any answers that you can give me to rectify this problem I am having.

From your picture I can see, there is something wrong. Since you have selected the audio file in the Audio Browser, there should be the full path displayed, but the name is missing:

I would suggest to remove the file from the Audio Browser in Logic, save the Project, quit and re-open Logic, and put the file back into the project again. Or better work from a new, blank project.

And something else, don't reveal personal information when posting pictures in the internet. And learn how to take screenshots:

I have another question John. Does this also count in the track naming as well or just the naming of the song?

Yes I remember that from working with Linux.

I don't know, Nateski, since I don't know what Logic Pro does under the hood. Wish I could be more definitive, but your guess is as good as mine.
