Whilst this mostly works, there's a noticeable delay in getting the next section started which is a deal-breaker for something as time-sensitive as a click track keeping 11 musicians in time. I've messed with all the settings, read up on the same issue people are having, but I still can't get it to work right.


Hey Matt

I just did a big musical with Q lab for clicks, choir tracks, subs, SMPTE and stereo and Q lab was great for it.

The way I got around everything was to mix my tracks down as multi wavs, and then chop them into verse/chorus/ structural segments, and then fired them with followons in group mode. This also made playback for rehearsal much much easier, plus gives the MD a way into a track mid song should something go pear shaped.

So - seeing as you can cut each section of a larger piece into it's own cue, you can have as many vamps / devamps as you need.

Works flawlessly.

Cheers

Sean
