Re: Problem with Folder Tracks: Plays out of sync after Freeze
Another heads up: First bug was confirmed by Avid and logged as PT-261047.
The negative user offsets not being allowed for Folder Tracks is explained as 'by design', because a Folder Track basically behaves as an Aux track in this respect (Aux tracks also don't allow a negative offset, whether frozen or unfrozen).
As soon as they fix the first bug, committing the Folder Track would become a viable workaround.
I think they could improve their general design concept and allow for any frozen track (which basically behaves as audio once it's frozen) to be allowed to be negatively compensated. The +/- icon for User Offsets is misleading in this respect and also no word about it in the manual. Just the warning you get when you try to set a negative offset in PT itself.
On the other hand, there's the argument that you would probably compensate any timing problems at the source tracks, so it becomes less relevant for the Aux/Folder tracks. So I can live with that.
