Default MIDI: Glitch at the end of loop-selection (FIXED)

how many bugs/issues did i report today? i don't know. here another one:

-> insert a track with a vsti
-> monitor-arm (to play from a midi-keyboard) or insert a midi-item with some notes (and give the synth a bit release)
-> make a loop-selection
-> enable repeat
-> playback (and just hold a note on your midikeyboard if you have one)

=> glitch at the end of the loop-selection almost everytime !?


what's up here? thought i can produce a bit tonight. nothing. i could cry ...

That happens to me sometimes. I glue the item and it goes away.

I have a similar issue when listening to a loop on repeat. The audio glitch happens at the start of the repeat of the loop, just a little crunch or click. Has always happened for me though, not just in this new version

Worse thing tho is getting stuck midi notes on repeat, especially for external synthies.

Here a soundfile where you can hear it. Live output recorded while playback loop-selection with repeat enabled.

i can confirm this. the only way to stop the glitch is to move the first note-on message forward so it's not exactly on the 1. i assumed this had been reported already since it's an obvious problem.

I'll take a look at this.. is it necessary to hold the key down on the midi keyboard to glitch?

did this break when we went to sample-accurate looping?

no, it also happens with midi-items (which contain notes). if you make a loop-selection over this item, then you also hear these glitches on every repeat.

I have been missing the first note if it's at the same position as the loop selection start since 1.848

Ah this might be unavoidable for now.. since at the loop it has to render some excess that doesnt get played.. the glitch is probably the removal of that excess...

but this is only an issue when you have a note that is on at the end of the loop and another that is on at the start, and they are the same note, right?

not only. it's also a problem where just one note is at the beginning. with a large release on the sound (which plays till the end of the loop-selection), you get a glitch on the next repeat too.

doesn't matter which notes. doesn't need to be the same note to get a glitch on every repeat.

I care, that bug made me stop using Reaper.

And if you load Energy XT as an Insert in Reaper, load a VSTi (in Energy XT), Reaper cuts off the midi at the end of the loop-selection.

I'm really curious to know more about this bug - can you upload a "Save Live Output To Disk" audio example? I don't seem to be getting this but this sounds like it's affecting some people a lot.

Sorry missed that!

It doesn't normally click for me when I play VSTi notes over audio files & loop them - I also tested with a sine playing continuously it seems absolutely fine.

But.. when I played some notes and quantized them just now, I got a click when looping a single measure.

In this case, the list editor showed me that the note at 3.1 had quantized to 2.4.99 and that seemed to be the cause of a click.

I guess this is a different thing, but Lord knows why quantizing would move a note away from .00! Sounds like another bug.

Try this RPP.. looping measure 2

mmh, did you test this with a long release (so that the sound is "longer" than the loop-selection)?

at least justin even confirmed it: http://www.cockos.com/forum/showpost...5&postcount=14

I am sorry Dandruff, I hope this will get fixed for all of us. I have definatly been hearing crackles at loop restarts, too..

I am sure Justin will find a solution, there is always a way, and people like him can find it.

could this problem be related to (or even the reason for) the rendering-problems (glitches) there: http://www.cockos.com/forum/showpost...6&postcount=25?

Bump.

This glitch is extremely irritating. (I've already mentioned it in another post).

I've noticed the "pop" comes on the first note of the loop. It's fine if midi note does not fall on the first beat of the bar - but most of the time this is what I need.

Most of my stuff is done using VSTi's and I use looping a lot.

Justin - Realistically, what are the chances of this getting Fixed in the near future?
