Hi at all,

I've some problems regarding the synchronization between audio material and midi data.

Prehistory:
I need halfplabacks for my band and will use midifiles. The midifiles sounds very poor.
So I import them in pro tools and assign virtual instruments to the individual midi channels and mix/master the track (stereo mixdown).

The aim is to use bitwig to create a lightshow which is synchronized to the music.

So this is my procedure:
- create midi track
- import midi track with tempo changes (the track contains additionally the vocal melody)
(it works --> tempo changes are visible in the tempo automation lane of the master track)
- create audio track
- import audio clip and set the clip to "mode" = "raw" in the audio event menu (so the track should not be stretched and is played like imported)
- make an instrument track (with the plugin of my dmx controller) and draw in automation lanes

The problem:
- if i jump as example from bar 33 to bar 120 and hit play... the audio material don't matches with the midi track (with the vocal melody)
- it´s curious because you can optically see in the arrangement view that all files (audio and midi) are on the right place

(It´s a litte bit hard to describe but let´s try it)
As example i play the song until bar 33 and jump to 120:
- the midi clip is playing fine (all on the right place)
- the audio track on position 120 plays material which is original at the position 135

In the screenshot you can see the two clips and the tempo automation line.

It´s impossible to create a lightshow with this problem because I have to jump back and forward to see the changes of the light colors.

I´m a little bit confused. Is there a option that I must activate to synchronize right or is it a bug in 1.3.6?

Thank you for your help.

Best greetings from Bavaria...
