Subject:Bug: Acid 5.0 unable to draw new loops once BPM has been changed manually

Here are the steps to recreate the problem:

- Start Acid 5 Pro with a blank project
- Select a loop file to auto preview below
- While letting it play in preview mode, change the project BPM by double clicking the BPM and manually entering a new number. The loop will stop playing. This is different behavior than Acid 4, in which the loop would begin again, but in the new BPM.
- Now try to add any loop to the project and draw it onto the screen. It won't draw it.

Hopefully I'm not the only person experiencing this problem.

I am able to reproduce the stop of the preview on a tempo change.

However, I can drag any loop to the time line and draw it out after following your steps.

In which way did you change the tempo?

If I use the slider only, it will allow me to draw, but if I double click the tempo and type in a new BPM manually, once I drag in new loops, they won't draw.

Well that's a bummer if it only happens to me. Wonder what would cause that on only my machine.

Well, it's nothing I can't get around... I just need to remember not to change the BPM manually while a loop is playing in preview mode.

I can repro the drawing of the loop problem when the tempo is changed by typing in a value.

Good catch!

I did find that if you change the tempo slightly, the loop you couldn't draw appears magically.

Thanks,
Peter
