Layer clips out of sync

Post by andwew »

Hey everyone-
I am using two layers with similar clips playing on top of each other so I can cue an overlay or play with the opacity of the two.
The master controls are great, but over time (regardless that these clips are the exact same length) they fall out of sync.
I imagine it has to do with Resolume always trying to play at the fastest fps and not a consistent one. Eventually leading to one of clips being faster or slower than the other.

Right now my work around is setting a midi key to cue both the clips at the same time so they restart in sync...

Is there a way to lock two clips on separate layers so that they stay perfectly in sync?

Thanks in advance. :mrgreen:

set the transport to play at bpm sync rather than timeline

Did you mean 'dude' instead of 'dood', in dutch 'dood' means dead or death ;-(
Anyway, are you using the master speed control and does this make your clips go out of sync?
If so we'll need to have a look at this.

haha, o boy... Definitely meant "dude". Good to know.
I am using the master control, but even without the speed control the clips would still eventually fall out of sync.
Using bbm they stay in sync, which is cool but I feel like I do lose the master speed control option. I guess I can always slow down\ speed up by that *2 /2 bbm speed button.

Thanks again, "dudes" :D
