mmmmmmmmmm - that would make sense but am i right in thinking BIAB doesn't allow audio monitoring the same way RB does? with my set up in RB you sing along with the playback on the usb interface monitor and everything lines up. the BIAB recording method seems a little odd if you can't sync with the track by default.
is the OP singing along with the BIAB playback and then BIAB is placing the recording 2 bars early? if changing the default cures the problem maybe the default needs tweaking with a patch.
<< BIAB doesn't allow audio monitoring the same way RB does? >>Correct, BIAB does not have audio monitoring of the recording material. However, the artist does hear the backing track and it's easy to sync recording audio.
<< if changing the default cures the problem maybe the default needs tweaking with a patch. >> Nope. The default is correct. For whatever reason it needs to be changed, be it importing a file, starting a recording at any other than the default position, both the recording audio menu window and the import window menu take this into account and have provided boxes to complete to begin recording or set input to exactly where the user wants to place them. The default takes care of normal recording or input making allowance for the required 2 bars offset built into the BIAB program.
