Waveform generation for audio clips.

Having so much trouble getting waveforms to generate so I can edit.
Checked the display waveforms box.
Tried clearing cache, swapping file location of cache, relinking media, creating proxy version of media, uninstalling and reinstalling.
No matter what I try i can't get them to load.
In this particular project I have 6 files, sometimes 1 might load waveforms, other times a different one will. But it takes a long time and there's no guarantee that they ever actually load.
Is there any actual fix for this? I've wasted an entire day trying to get this to work.
