jjmmuir Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Hi - hoping someone has a quick fix for this because it is quite bizarre. At the moment (current version of logic and late 2012, 2.9 GHz i5 imac) 'play' plays from about a beat or so before the playhead. Also when I make a selection using the marque tool to isolate audio, it still starts before the selection - which makes work hard. At the moment I'm trying to guess where it will start to make edits....so weird. Restarting computer/ logic did nothing to solve this. I hope thats understandable. Thanks for any ideas Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplets Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Maybe you have a lot of latency-inducing going that makes Logic adjust the playhead. Also, you might wanna update your Logic version in your signature and what operating system version you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volovicg Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Check the delay parameter in the inspector ( region selected ) under more.... make sure it is set to 0 ( zero ) Sounds like you may have a positive number set there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be latency from somewhere....not sure where though. I haven't put plugins on yet Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yadamir Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Any headway on this issue? I'm having a similar thing happen in projects. When I place the playhead, it will consistently start playing about 1 sec. before. Makes it pretty difficult to make precise edits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yadamir Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I may have found a solution/workaround. In Logic Preferences, go to: Audio > General. Under Plug-in Latency deselect "Playback pre-roll". This seemed to fix the issue for me. The funny thing is, it will happen randomly in the middle of a session, so I don't know if I'm accidentally hitting some hotkey that engages that–I'll need to take a look at my hotkeys. Also, I have zero plugins in my session when I'm editing, so not quite sure what would be causing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked all through the preferences and couldn't find that. Surprised that nobody else knew this fix, worked instantly. Nominating @Yadamir for superstar of the week.
