  • [X3]Double notes rendering tracks comped with speed comping and then edited transients

I don't see this bug addressed anywhere, and it's frustrating me to no end.  I used the Sonar X3 Producer speed comping tool to comp some drum tracks where the drummer could not (!) play along to a click track.  Once I'd comped the tracks, I tried moving transients, and could NOT move them without unselecting the solo button on the rendered comp track.  Once done moving the transients, with the solo button re-engaged, I rendered the song to a .WAV file, and got TONS of double hits, where the transients in the comped track were not moved, but the transients in the original tracks were....though when I look at the track through the UI, I don't see the double hits, and I don't hear them when I play the track.
 
Is this something fixed in one of the updates to X3 Producer???

I'm not sure what all you might have done, but flattened comp clips are locked against editing by default. You would have had to unlock the clip to enable Audiosnap as well as to move the AS transient markers. So I suspect you never got the rendered comp clip unlocked in the first place, and were actually operating on the recorded clips.
 
In any case, I'm pretty sure the result you got was due to a procedural error (or a series of errors), as opposed to some inherent issue with Audiosnap or Comping.

Brudle...
 
So THAT'S what those little padlock icons on the comp track represent!  LOL...you are correct, all the transient editing occurred on the original tracks rather than the comp tracks...but I deleted the comp tracks once the transient editing was complete and I was getting random dual hits, regenerated the comp track, but that did not solve the problem.
 
What DID solve the problem was installing the X3e patch.  Turns out (though I found no documentation to confirm this) that it was a bug in the original version.  Rendered version I did after the patch install was complete sounded awesome.
 
Thank you for your response, though.  I now need to go in search of how to unlock the comp track, as I have a couple of edits that need to be tweaked.

Cool. I'm not aware that there was ever an issue in any of the earlier X3 releases that would account for the problem you described, but good enough if the problem went away with X3e.
 
Clip Lock options are in the right-click context menu for the clip (with Edit Filter set to Clips), and also in the Clip tab of the Track Inspector for the currently selected clip.
