markalex905 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I did a search and couldn't find this. Can anyone reproduce this bug? Merging an unlocked region with a locked region causes the locked region's MIDI data to disappear. Seems to be a repeatable error since LP9. Happens only when the unlocked region precedes the locked one. If they're both locked or unlocked, or the locked one comes first, all is fine. Experts ??

Jordi Torres Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hi, Just tried it here and this is what I get: The regions merge into a new one that's smpte-unlocked and with all notes intact. Tried it both with the key command and the glue tool. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markalex905 Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Weird - To confirm... two midi regions... same track... separated by a few bars. Unlocked region on Left, Locked region on Right. Glue tool to merge them. Is that what you did? Actually, the notes don't disappear - they still show in the Event list, still locked, but now somehow shifted to the right by a few bars. Can only see them if I extend the region to the right. Found the problem on 3 Macs. Anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpmusicny Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Confirmed here also still a bug in X.1, Mavericks 10.9.4 Did you report it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 The bug seems to only occur when the locked region is after the unlocked region. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markalex905 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Exactly David - that's what I was trying to say. If Jordi Torres isn't having the problem, I'm wondering if there's something he's done that's fixed it. This happens if I use the glue tool or do it from the edit menu.

Jordi Torres Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Tried it again, this time on my Macbook Pro. I still can not reproduce it. This is what I did: Created an empty region on bar 1. Added some notes with the pencil. Created a secon region on bar 5 on the same track. Added some notes to that. SMPTE-locked this second region. Selected both regions and joined them (Command-J). The resulting region itself is not SMPTE-locked, but the group of notes in bar 5 appear locked according to the Event List. They don't dissapear or get shifted anywhere. J.

markalex905 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Thanks for the info Jordi. I'm still getting the bug every time. David N and others are too. (At least I feel validated We seem to have identical Mac Minis too. Wonder what the difference is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I can not confirm this either. My findings are exactly the same as Jordi's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you use a blank new project or do you start out with a custom template? ----------------------- Happens with Templates and new empty projects. I actually got it to work properly ONCE. Then all subsequent tries show the bug. Did you try it more than once? Unlocked region on Left (earlier) Locked region on Right (later).

Eric Cardenas Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Ok. I can replicate it every time. Everything works fine if the first region is in located on 1.1.1.1. But if the first region is somewhere else this bug will appear. And the notes are actually not disappearing. Drag the right edge of the region to the right and you will find that the SMTPE locked notes are moved forward by the same amount of time that differs from the first region and project start. (1.1.1.1). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markalex905 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Thanks - guess we have a real bug on our hands. I can't believe there are no other posts about it. This is in LP9 too. I sent a bug report. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markalex905 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Yes, of course the workaround is easy. I was concerned more with past work I lost accidentally without knowing about the bug. I'd open an old project and be missing stuff I was sure I'd recorded. Just alerting everyone, just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 This bug is mentioned as fixed in the release notes but I can't confirm it. Any one else care to try? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
