Waveform on main window does not align with wave form in audio regions

jamsden

I have a song where the waveform displayed in the main window is not in sync with the waveform I'm the audio regions.

vs:

The multi-track audio files are all 3:06 in length and that matches what is shown in the audio regions. But for some reason the waveform and song length is longer in the main window, about 3:29. And the sound does not align with the wave form. That is, 3:06 at the end of the outro region is the actual end of the song and the waveform displayed doesn't match the audio.

Is there a way to get the song waveform to re-sync? I've tried adding the multi-track files again, but that didn't make any difference.

The duration of a multitrack song is determined by the longest imported audio file. It seems that at one point you imported an audio file of length 3:29. Usually this can be fixed by tapping on the refresh button in song details. Unfortunately this does not work on multitrack songs. I guess this is a bug. I will try to squeeze a fix into version 3.7. Until then the only way to fix this is by creating a new song. But that would mean you have to recreate all regions.

While fixing the bug I found a workaround to recalculate the song duration. Delete any of the tracks. ST3 will then recalculate the song duration based on the longest track in the song. After that you can add the track again.

Fantastic service and great product. Thanks!

Any chance you could add an action for setting the time mark in the edit lyrics view? And maybe enable actions in lyrics and regions view where you have to start and stop playback a lot?

Unfortunately not. The actions are handled globally in the app. And with the current architecture there is no way to override them within editors. This is something I need to address in version 4.
