Thanks, Rick. The image helped heaps.

I've loaded in all the settings and tracks you have and I can re-create the problem you are experiencing.

As mentioned in my post above, 6/8 is not native to BIAB. To use this time signature, it's necessary to be creative. This particular style recreates 6/8 by having two bars of fast 3/4. This gives the feeling of six beats to the bar. It is important to keep in mind, though, that it is accomplished by using two bars of music.

The fact that this time signature requires these two bars for the six beats is where the problem lies. It explains why the drums unsynchronised. Because you added a single bar (bar 18) to give some 'breath', from the music's perspective, you've only added half a 6/8 bar (i.e. two bars are needed for the full six beats).

As a consequence of the above, the net effect is that instruments seem to be displaced by half a bar from bar 19 onwards.

If you want to maintain the same 6/8 feel throughout, it's necessary to add two bars in the middle and not just a single bar.

Hope this helps,
Noel
