BUG: Automation points are processed at wrong time

Post by sixstorm1 »

Automation points are processed at the wrong time during playback when tempo marker is inserted in the middle of a clip and before the automation points (Mixcraft 8.1 Build 418)

STEPS:
1. Create a project with default settings (95 BPM)
2. Insert a 2-minute audio clip at the beginning of timeline
3. Set the clip to use project BPM and set clip BPM to match the project (95 BPM)
4. Insert a tempo marker at 15 seconds (WITHIN the clip) and change to a LOWER BPM (80 BPM)
5. Create a volume drop on the volume automation line at 1:45 (AFTER the tempo marker)
6. Place the cursor at the beginning of timeline (BEFORE the marker) and press play.
7. Observe that the volume is being dropped way before the cursor reaches the volume automation points.
8. The reverse can be observed when the clip is changed to a HIGHER BPM.

WORKAROUND:
1. Split the clip after the tempo marker.
