  1. Hey guys, I know this topic has been touched on here before, but I can't tell if my situation is unique. I've recorded a vocal and the singer is strong; only some very small adjustments needed here and there. While in the session with Flex Pitch activated, everything sounds great. However, after bouncing, I notice artifacts in the vocal in some quieter sections, and on top of that, I don't believe I've made any Flex adjustments to these sections. What would cause me to only hear artifacts on the bounce, but not in the session? If you'd like to hear what I mean, https://soundcloud.com/tarralayne/real-world/s-tdFqX. Skip to about 3:40 where you can hear it in her breaths. Any ideas guys?
  2. Wanted to check in to say that I'm having the same problem. At first, I was noticing it only in sessions that were in Logic 9, but then, it started happening in X. I don't use a mouse (like the guy above). Update: I've read about other people in other forums who experience the same thing and find it to be related to SoundToys Decapitator, which I am using heavily in the sessions I experience issues in. Looks like we may have found the culprit - now, the solution....?
  3. Hey guys, just found this thread while searching for the same issue. I just bought these headphones as well, and I do have an interface with a headphone preamp built in, but I'm just curious: I've received tons of advice stressing mixing at a lot volume under the notion that, generally, anything that sounds good and balanced low will sound good/great loud. I've done a few text mixes with these new headphones (without the interface's preamp), and when played in other headphones and on speakers, the mixes have never sounded better. Am I missing anything if I'm mixing while out of the studio and without my interface?
  4. THIS WAS IT - great catch! Thank you whitebalance! Honestly, I have no clue how this adjustment happened, as I don't recall ever expanding to decimal view, but regardless, THANK YOU!
  5. Well, I would've been surprised if the other DAWs (on different computers) were not exactly 82bpm, but to verify this, I opened a few loops that I knew to be 82bpm loops out of sample packs, and they looped perfectly. Furthermore, again, I bounced another session off of my computer, loaded it into the other DAWs, and it tempo synced perfectly. I'll see what I can do to attach the project - do you want all the audio files, too? If so, this .zip will end up pretty hefty. I haven't tested AIFF and CAF. Good suggestion - I will.
  6. Okay, my third post in the last few days. I am becoming completely problem-ridden. I'm working on a song that I needed to bounce for different uses (Ableton Live session, bounce for Pro Tools so a friend could track at his studio). The session is a 82bpm and the Ableton session and Pro Tools sessions its been imported into are at 82bpm as well. However, for some reason, the song seems to have bounced at a slightly faster tempo, as it will start to get ahead of the click and eventually completely off. I thought maybe Varispeed was on, adjusting the speed, but not the tempo, but no, it wasn't. Other songs I had bounced recently off of an external hard drive were fine. This particular session was on my internal SSD. I thought maybe, for some weird reason, my SSD is causing sessions to bounce at a faster tempo and I just never noticed it. So, I bounced another session that is also on my SSD and brought it into other DAWs and their tempo was accurate and consistent. This happens with WAVs no matter what sample rate I bounce at and with MP3s no matter what bitrate I bounce at. Does anyone have any idea what could be going on here?
  7. Great suggestion. However, I tried it, and unfortunately, it didn't work either.
  8. It was comforting to hear that you've experienced this before as well, Eric. However, I've tried all of your recommendations (rebooting, saving as a new session, opening a new main window and closing the old one, rebooting, rebooting, rebooting) to no avail. The only thing I can think of at this point is to start a new session and import all the tracks from the broken one. Unless there's anything else that comes to mind?
  9. I opened a session I've been working on today and for some reason, whenever I press the spacebar (to play session), it moves the playhead back 38 milliseconds. If I press and hold it, it just scrubs backwards. I've checked every setting I know, closed and re-opened the session, deleted my Preference files, and rebooted my computer. Thoughts, anyone? Before hitting the spacebar After hitting the spacebar
  10. I appreciate your quick response and helpfulness, Eric. After 2 days, everything has somehow returned to normal. I'm the kind of guy who, when faced with a problem, really likes to figure out not only how to solve it, but what caused it as well. Unfortunately, despite my best efforts, I'm completely dumbfounded as to what caused this issue. Thank you, nonetheless!
  11. Hey guys, first time poster here. I have what I think to be a very peculiar problem: 99% of the time, I bounce mp3s or wavs, but yesterday, I was forced to bounce some audio samples in .aif format. Ever since then, when I try to bounce anything else, the Bounce menu will pop up, but when I choose my settings and hit "Bounce," the window just closes and re-opens unless part of my bounce includes an .aif formatted file. An example for clarification: I go to bounce, choose mp3 only, window closes, re-opens with mp3 selected and .aif selected, I try to change the settings to only mp3 again, the window closes and nothing happens. If I go to bounce and mp3 and I choose .aif as well, it works, but then I have an extra .aif file every time that I don't want or need. Does anyone know what the heck is going on?
