[Fix]Poblem with short loops with crossfades and long fades

[djvomght]

Hallo at all,

during our last production, where the director loved to pick short snippets out of longer pieces of music and have them looped over minutes I run into the following problem: If a fadeout or levelchange crosses the loop boarders of a loop having crossfades you'll get funny jumps of the level of the playing cue. I put together a test show to illustrate the problem, see the attachment of this post.

Best regards
Jörg

Which audio driver do you have selected? DirectSound or ASIO?

Hallo Mike,

the problem exists with both drivers, on different computers, with different audio hardware and with different versions of SCS.

I am also having this same problem; ver. 11.4.2.3. I am looping a short 7 sec drum cadence, and then want to fire a level change cue that lasts 20 sec. When the audio cue reaches the loop, the level change cue stops and the level remains where it was at when the audio cue looped. The audio cue has a very short (.02 sec) crossfade just to clean up the loop. When I remove the crossfade from the looping cue, the level change over 20 seconds works fine.

This bug was fixed in SCS 11.5.0. I've emailed you further information.
