Subject:Loop Timing Posted by: shredheadinstead Date:12/19/2006 12:08:44 AM I know this was asked before, however, I'm having a hard time finding the answer through the backpages of this forum. Basically, after adding a series of drum loops to my audio project, I noticed everything was working fine. And than, all of a sudden, everything was out of sync. The audio, the drums. One was lagging behind, while the other sped up? Should I go into the track properties and change some of these loops to Beatmapped, or is there a way to prevent the timing issue to not occur? Thanks for the help.
Subject:RE: Loop Timing Reply by: DKeenum Date:12/19/2006 9:31:54 AM What kind of loops are you using? Sony loops? 3rd party loops? Home-made loops? For example mp3s have some silence at the beginning that can't be removed. That affects their timing many times. That doesn't sound like your problem, I'm just giving an example. Tell us more about your project.
Subject:RE: Loop Timing Reply by: shredheadinstead Date:12/19/2006 9:45:10 PM Ok, cool. I'm using Double Bass Mania 2 drum loops. I used a basic beat to put my rythem and lead guitars over. Everything flew beautifully. Than I started layering some fills, etc over the original beat. Still, everything was running smooth, and than out of nowhere, My drums started to lag (the fills) and werent keeping up with the main beat and the audio of the guitars. I think I mkgut have done something to the new tracks but not sure?

Subject:RE: Loop Timing Reply by: DKeenum Date:12/20/2006 4:59:23 PM I've read your post several times and I'm not seeing where the problem is. Maybe mD fixed you up, but if not... Are your recorded files "One Shots?" If not, they need to be. If that's not it, tell us more.
