How to get rid of the negative bars?

[Gogo240]

I seem to be having a problem in my session where the negative bars won't go away. It was at -5 and I was able to drag it up to the -1 bar. But I can't seem to make it go further than that. Any ideas why?

Did you grab the left bracket on the top ruler?

[Gogo240]

I did, and no cigar :/

Any markers or midi events at that spot?

[Gogo240]

This is what I see...

You have 2 regions on the negative side. That's why Logic doesn't let you move the beginning.

 

Select all regions and move them 2 or 4 bars to the left. Then you can move the left song bracket.

Thanks so much. I think this is where things should be. I see there's a little space right before the 1. Does this seem correct though?

What does the position locator say, 1 1 1 1?

[Gogo240]

I hope this helps explain.

Those screenshots don't tell me the position.

Put the song position locator at the beginning of that cycle.

If the position on the display says 1 1 1 1, you're good.

This is the furthest I can zoom in. It doesn't say 1 1 1, but it says 1. And the cursor sits right on top of the line. Does that help?

Does that help?

 

Not really. Try this:

 

[Gogo240]

Yes, when I press enter the cursor goes right to = 1 1 1 1. I assume that's exactly what it should do?

Correct.
