<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>After reading some of the discussion from this weekend and yesterday, i decided </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>to try the looping punch-in/punch-out method. This is a method that i unsuccessfully </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>tried back on 0.99.3, but have been looking forward to being able to do. Im running </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>FC5 and Ardour 2.0rc2 ( i dont remember the build number, so i hope the rc2 part tells </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>all that is needed ). </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Heres my setup: I started with a basic session ( 1 mono guitar rhythm, 1 stereo </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>drum track, no plugins, no automation ) and added a single mono track for a guitar </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>solo that i will punch in at a specific point. I created the punch in/out area, then i </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>encapsulated that within a loop that spanned 2 bars before the punch-in and 1 bar </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>after the punch-out. I selected the 'punch-in' and 'punch-out' buttons, the master </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>record, and the track record for the track i needed punched, and finally started the </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>process rolling with the 'loop' transport button.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Heres my issue: It worked great the first time through, but on the 2nd loop (and </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>all additional loops) i lost all output from the rhythm and drum tracks until i hit </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the punch-in point again. Ardour wasnt even showing metering for these tracks.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Has anyone else run across this? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks</FONT></DIV>
