Bounced midi notes of "melodic sequence" not matching what I hear in LogicPro

I created a bass line using the Pigments Esphope melodic sequence instrument and it sounds exactly how I want it.

Because Esphope is a "melodic sequence", I created midi notes that are VERY specific lengths so I'd hear exactly as many notes of the sequence as I want - and with quantizing, they'd be perfectly in sync w/the

BPM.

However, after bouncing, I'm hearing a different number of melodic seq notes and they don't always align w/the tempo.

I've tried several things: bouncing in place (varied results), freezing the track (same), making the midi notes longer (same).

Is there a way to force the output to match what I hear in LogicPro?

I realize this might be a question for Arturia - and I’ve sent them a similar question - but thought I’d check here as well in case there's some LP setting that would fix this that I’m unaware of.


btw, I've only encountered this issue w/the Esphope

instrument so far.


LogicPro 11.1.1 on a Mac Mini running Sequoia 15.5

Have you tried playing with your buffer size? Maybe processing just requires more power?

What is your buffer size set to?


This happens to me on occasion. I do not know why it happens but

my workaround is this:


I send my track out via a bus (you can also use Output) and then I record it in real time via an Audio Track.

Every time I get stuck and bouncing to audio is not working, I use this technique and it has been solid for me.


In the example below, I am sending my Audio via Bus 100 and then receiving that on a new Audio Track whose Input is 100. I often like to set the Output of the track sending Audio to No Output.

hey Eddie, thanks for the great (and detailed) suggestion - i'll give it a try soon.


btw, my buffer was 128 (didn't work), tried 256 (didn't work either).

i guess i could make my way thru all of the buffer options at some point, but i'll try your trick first.


thanks!

Jamie
