I've got my first track on the go and am hitting a bug with NI Kontakt -
I've got a Kontakt instrument set up as a rack filter.
It includes three time-machineII outputting to 3 different stereo outs in Kontakt. These go to three separate tracks in Tracktion.
The Kontakt instrument feeds into other tracks too but it's the time machines that have the problem.
I've finished my basic mix but when I render the whole thing to audio, the three Kontakt tracks are playing back their samples at the wrong speed (changing pitch and timing).
Changing the sample rate of the output file changes the speed of the sample playback but I haven't found the sample rate that works, despite all the choices in the Tracktion export file - I don't see why it should make a difference but it does:
e.g. 1920000 gives me a track with other sounds playing normally, but as soon as the point is reached where the specific sounds in question should start, they just whizz past at supr high speed in a few seconds and the rest of the track continues without them
44100 - the problem tracks come in at the right point in the track, but are two slow, with dropped pitch - again, all the other tracks play normally right through to the end.
The samples were recorded in Audacity at 44100.
Ordinary playback is completely normal, but rendering does not yield a file that sounds like it should.
Some kind of bug when using NI Kontakt in Trktn2

thanks, I will try that tonight - it was getting late and i'd given it a few goes already. Do you think I can up the sample rate by doing this to take advantage of a higher rate when mastering? I'll try a few options.

No this is not the fix. it just took longer to do exactly the same thing.
This is a pain because I can't play back the entire track without hitting my CPU limit, so I can't even record it into another system via normal playback, which I sometimes do.
If I render individual tracks, they step out of sync and need adjusting (I need to fix the sample latency but that's different story).
What else can I try. I want to just render the whole track to audio, but it ain't happy - these sample instruments don't render correctly.
