Hi Guys,

I'm running into an issue and I'm not sure if it's user error because I'm doing something wrong or if there's a bug of some sort (Mac).

Here are the steps I'm taking:

1) Pick a style.
2) Use the melodist to generate chords only (no style changes, melodies).
3) Right click a utility track to select a RealTrack soloist.
4) Highlight a region, right click the newly added soloist, then choose Track Actions, then Generate RealTrack on Selected Region.
5) I may or may not do steps 3 and 4 again, choosing a different soloist and region.
6) Unfold the song to allow for more parts or I've also tried simply increasing the choruses to something like 3. I've tried both ways to see if it made a difference with my issue.
7) If I unfolded, then I copy and paste all the parts that currently exist, then pasted them a couple of times to lengthen the song.
8) Lastly, I've tried both just hitting Play or I've also tried hitting Generate and Play.

After doing all that, I'm finding that things keep going "awry" for lack of a better word.

First of all, the regions in which I used the soloist do not seem to copy. After copy and pasting those regions, the soloist performance(s) is/are gone on the copied version.

Second, often, but not every time, other regular tracks (non soloist, melody, or utility) like bass and drums, no longer are playing where they were before, even starting at the first measure where they were previously playing fine.

Last bit of info I can think to add. I was doing these same steps in the Pro version just fine. I upgraded to the UltraPak yesterday and when I did so I first completely wiped out my Pro version install first. Then installed everything fresh with UltraPak install.

Any ideas?

EDIT: I forgot to add that I've also tried using the Song Form, Song Form Dialog, using something like ABABCBA structure. I also have the problem doing that as well, with the sounds disappearing/tracks not playing where they should be.
