tracktion w12 metronome count in

[frankpain]

My experience with other DAW's metronome "count in" is, they typically count 4 beats (1-2-3-4) and the play head starts

I recently noticed Waveform counts an additional beat before the first downbeat (..and-1-2-3-4) has anyone else noticed this ...it becomes very obvious if the emphasize downbeat option is selected..

or am I imagining things

Related: please add bar number -1, i.e. a bar before the real start, for anacrucis.

I think you might need even a -2 for some pieces, especially if issuing MIDI commands to older, external hardware to give it time to load and ready. This is a long-standing request.

So I just downloaded the Waveform Pro 13 trial and ran into this (or a related) issue. When I do a 1 bar count-in, it really only does a count-in of 3 beats. So, being so used to other DAWs, I constantly start playing after 1-2-3-4, which means in Waveform that I come in at beat 2 of the bar.

Is there really no way to change this behaviour?

That sounds like a bug, what tempo and block size?

Sorry for my delayed response. I set my buffer to 64 samples, but it also happens when I have it at 128. Tempo doesn't seem to affect things either. Looking at the playbar, it seems the issue is that it doesn't generate a sound when it starts playing; sound seems to kick in at beat 2.

To be clear; I use several other DAWs (Studio One, Ableton Live and Reaper) w/o any issues.
