Waveform and Audio “out of sync”

Postby Larry Elliott » Sat Nov 18, 2006 07:31

I have loaded 4 mono files into PMX SP3 and am noticing that the waveform display seems to be offset or out of sync with the level meters and audio out put. The files are ok at the commencement but get worse as the tracks play. I have checked sample rate etc and this is fine. Original files are BWav recorded with MetricHalo 2882 on mac. Suggestions?

Thank you
Larry Elliott

:( Seems like it is a sample rate issue - session was set to 44.1 but files were 48. :roll:

Hope you don't mind borrowing the topic for a related issue ;)

Audio output and play-pointer/waveform are not sync on my MacBook with Pyramix native. The audio sounds about 100 ms before the pointer hits the waveform. Putting a delay in the mixer output is a possible workaround but not very elegant.
Any idea how to fix this ?

Hi,

Please use Native Forum for Native questions :-)

I believe you are using on-board audio and Direct-X? Please try with an ASIO device, all should be aligned (it is here on our machines).

And if you really want to work with on-board audio, try installing Asio4All.

Kind regards

OK, ok;) I didn't know this was a native problem. Won't use the N word here anymore :)

This post highlights a feature of pyramix which i don't like . That being if you quick import a file it doesn't tell you if it's at a different sample rate to your project.
