Major quality loss when using Audio Snap?

I recorded an acoustic guitar strumming clip, and tried to use Audio Snap to move certain transient segments left or right to align with the drum beats. However, I'm getting major quality loss due to stretching...

I can understand if I move the transient segments A LOT, but I'm moving them very slightly, just enough to match the drum hits, and I'm still getting noticeable artifacts from audio stretching. Help?

    Nevermind. I bounced down the guitar clip that I applied AudioSnap changes to, and the artifacts went away. I guess bouncing the clip is a sort of "accept these changes" type action for AudioSnap...

    Yes the bounce is the thing.
    I have asked Sonar to add a flag on any track that has A/S'd but not been bounced.

    I think its because audio snap will do it real time, lest its bounced......   lol..  I went for the Craig Anderton vids, instead of the Concrete Limiter..  when the we had the $20 week.
