Quick question here folks.
I work pretty much exclusivly with audio and am up against an increasingly irratating issue. Heres a typical situation: I'm doing multiple takes on an audio part, were on the 7th take, and we decide we like the 3rd take best, and want to bring it out of the "trash" back into the project. Even if I put the section at the exact same start time (ex. 00:01:48:715) that it was at when origionaly recorded, the bloody thing is out of time!!
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I would be pretty sure as to why:
Audio recording starts just before the start point in Cubase. The audio is recorded into a file, and a clip in the pool points to that. The event in the project points to the clip, with an offset value (shown in the infobar).
When you delete the event, the offset value is lost, and if you drag the clip into the project, then the event that is created is seen to start at the beginning of the clip.So the audio will be later when placed at the same position. (terrible english, but I hope it makes sense).
I don't know SE, but in SX it is easier to record over the previous takes, and only the latest one played back. They can be shown in lanes and each auditioned in the audio part editor, and the best form each take can be used (comping), by cutting the events and resizing them in the editor.
