Audio trace problem

Post by ivolod » Fri Dec 17, 2010 7:04 pm

Hello,

I have a problem when I use more than one audio trace. When I record something on the first trace, it just works well. But when I use another trace for a second voice or something, from around 30 seconds, the time just shifts a half second or so forward, so that it doesn't fit in the rest of the music. I already tried to uninstall and reinstall, but that didn't solve the problem. Does anyone know what to do now?

Please read this Frequently Asked Question (select Time Shift Tool by pressing F5 on your keyboard then click and drag leftwards in the track).

If the new track is recording at the wrong speed, so that lining up the starts of the tracks doesn't keep their entire lengths synchronised, see this Wiki help.
