I try to open drum tracks that I bounced to wav at the studio but Sound Forge tells me that the specified file contains unsupported bits per sample size. But I did it with some other tracks why won't it do it now?

Try going to File>New and create a blank file that matches your drum tracks' bit-depth/sample rate (if you know it offhand). Then try to open your drum tracks from there.

Note also that Sound Forge Studio or XP Studio only open up to 16-bit/48 kHz audio files. Only the full version of Sound Forge can work with files above that bit-depth and sample rate.

HTH,
