One take, different timing

[vincentzaalberg]

This is a mystery to me guys. Recorded a guitar with mics to one track and DI signal to a second track. Now the recording is the exact same take BUT Logic somehow prints this with completely different timing.
I reset Core Audio. Disengaged groups. Shut of editting and quantize reference group settings. Even than Logic delays the DI signal. At the moment I am just creating a new track and copying over the DI recording to the existing (partially already editted) track. Any suggestions to get the two in sync again?

any plugins on the tracks? ie something different between the 2? and what devices are you running the signals thru?

ROUTING

Folder Stack “Guitars” with inside:

Track Stack “Guitar 1” with inside:

- “AC30” track outputed to Guitar 1 track stack.

- “DI” track no output (only for reamping).

Both AC30 and DI track are grouped together with Editing and Q-Reference activated. But even with those off the problem persists, plus a newly created DI track with the exact same settings does function properly.

PLUGINS

Neutron 4, Gain, Remix plugin on Guitar 1 track. Low-Latency mode is activated whilst recording though. 

 

DEVICES

Guitar signal straight into DI split to DAW and pedals/amp/mics signals. The thing is Logic times the mic signal way earlier so that excludes signal path latency as being the issue.

 

It’s a bit of a riddle really…

what happens if you record into 2 tracks not in stacks, and with no fx on the channel strips? worth trying...

Hi Fisherking,

okay your suggestion was a hit.
I first dragged the Guitar 1 and DI track outside of the Folder and Track Stack and recorded. 
Amazingly the recordings were back in sync. I didn't even remove the plugins yet.
So I wondered what would happen if I dragged the same tracks back into the Folder and Track Stack to the exact same position they were before. Weirdly enough the track now record in sync (see screenshot). I guess there is no point in trying to understand this. The edits on the original track are saved and I can continue to use the same DI track, that matters to me.
Thank you!

Regards,

Vincent
