I'm sorry if this has been brought up before, but this is Tracktion's MAJOR downfall and will probably be the reason I abandon it.

My songs have quite a few time sig/tempo changes, and when I want to throw an extra measure or two into the beginning of the song, I slide all my MIDI clips but the time changes in the timeline bar don't follow and I have to re-sync them with the MIDI clip which is VERY time consuming.

Is there another way to do this or is this just a major flaw that I'll have to work around?

Tracktion is such a great program, if this were fixed it'd be absolutely perfect for my needs.

If there's an easy fix I'd like to know about it too, but unfortunately I don't think there is. There are other problems too... like sometimes when you try to copy a section of the song, an entirely different part of the song winds up on the clipboard. It's my only major gripe as well. It's where tracktion stops being a pleasure to use and becomes an excercise in frustration. My way of "working around" is to export midi clips one by one, import them individually into a new edit to create the new timeline, and re-record all the audio. Not exactly ideal, but after several hours or trying to rearrange a particular edit, it was the only thing I could come up with.
