Default Tempo markers with region copy/move do not stay on the grid [FIXED!]

When copying a region with tempo map present tempo markers do not stay synced to the grid.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByE...ew?usp=sharing

Square envelopes visible

Easy to replicate/confirm
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByE...g4X0dfRkE/view

Tempo markers when using beat timebase should always stay synced to the grid otherwise working with regions (copy/move) and tempo map is not possible.

4/4 beats whole measure.
square tempos
Timebase items => Beats (pos only)
Timebase tempo => Beats (happens with all time/ beats combinations)
Snap 1/2 (so no accidental snap error)

Snap settings https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByE...ew?usp=sharing

Sometimes needs changing the timebase: (reorder regions =>change to time for tempo mapping =>change to beats => reorder regions) REAPER sometimes also gets confused what items are beats or time oriented... Some start to behave different than the project setting although all items/tracks are set to the project setting.

Confirmed - if using linear tempo changes.

(This appears to be similar to the bug report Copying Region with linear tempo envelope points desyncs tempos and time sigs.)

Unfortunately, linear tempos are riddled with bugs, especially when it comes to Regions. I would advise everyone to avoid linear tempos and instead use only square tempos. (SWS's nifty tempo mapping functions also require square tempos.) The only disadvantage is that the tempo marker lane becomes overcrowded because a single linear tempo change may get replaced by multiple square tempo changes. This leads to the FR in my sig below.

This is surprising (and worrying).

* Does it only happen in this one project that you used for the GIF, or have you encountered it elsewhere too?

* If possible, could you post a project file so that we can try to replicate the bug?

* I hope you don't mind me asking, but could you please double-check that you were indeed using square tempos? The master tempo envelope is not visible in the GIF of your arrange view, so I hope that the tempos were actually accidentally set to linear.

Elsewhere to… Was working on a song and started testing this. Sometimes it does not happen immediately.

Testfile: (drag as shown in the clip, offset does not happen everywhere... region 6 past 7 and 7 past 3 also have the offset)

https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...1E?usp=sharing

Sure. Check with envelopes visible…

Drat. I can confirm that this bug happens even with square tempos. (In your file as well as in my own projects.)

Strangely, as you mentioned, it does not necessarily happen the first time a region is moved. Moving regions may seem to work fine the first dozen or so times, and then suddenly things go awry.

Thanks for confirming this! Yes… seems to work at first and makes this bug somewhat tricky to discover without extensive testing, but it always happens. IMHO this is a core function of a DAW and this should be fixed ASAP. Stopped me from using REAPER with my current project as I’m using tempo maps.

Had the above issue in latest project.

Also noticed snap was going to tempo point instead of grid even with 3 check boxes for "to selection/markers/cursor" empty. Having trouble reproducing in blank project, but snap is strange anyway, like so:



I think its related because things can get out of whack and you might not notice until a lot of work is needed to fix it. Splitting, time selection copy, etc...

With copy/move regions I checked by max zooming the snap points.... An unexpected snap point can indeed be tricky.

This one makes it somewhat easier to replicate/confirm

FIXED in v5.70!

Really? I take for instance Verse 1 of a song and set a region on it by snapping it to grid. Then I move the region to another location at the start of another region. The moved region then jumps backwards off the grid towards the start of the project timeline. I measure this "offset" at about 81ms.

I have checked everything and was about to post here a new thread, but did one last google search and found this thread.

I thought at first I might have an issue in the snap settings where the pixels setting or something is not right. But this bug prior (?) to version 5.70 and mentioned in this thread has me wondering.

In addition once the errant region is miss located I can't move it back the small amount on the grid.

Now the only thing I can think of is that this project goes back 4 months and was pre the Version of Reaper 5.70 that I am now running. Could that be the issue?

So the question I have is this: When 5.70 was tested was it with a new project? Was that project created with version 5.70 of Reaper? Or was the new version of Reaper 5.70 also tested for this issue with older projects created with an older version of Reaper?

Thanks
LB

I am glad that another user can confirm that some region vs tempo bugs are still lingering in v5.70.

I submitted several examples in the thread Regions vs Tempo envelope bugs still remaining in v5.70.

If possible, could you post a GIf and minimal RPP to demonstrate the bug?

I will try and post what you ask in the next day or 2. Normally I could do this pronto but I am swamped.

Went to create the file to post and did this in a new project. The issue did not repeat. So I figure this is not going to be addressed since it would appear to be fixed via new project creation. Tried it on 2 machines, same result. Tried it on another project that was old, same result (it was fixed). So I suspect there is a certain condition that triggers the issue.

Default Still happening

Hey guys I'm on 6.36 and I just noticed it happens. I have tempos mapped to multiple regions and as soon as I insert a new region somewhere or move one
The tempo falls off the grid and now my midi is no longer synced to my audio
