As a specific test case, I had a 4-bar pattern kick hit on the 1 of each bar. I then added a cymbal crash to the 1 of the first bar. When I played the changed section back, I heard the cymbal crash but not the kick (or actaully the kick seemed "muted" almost to the point of inaudibility); the other kicks on the 1 of bars 2, 3, and 4 played fine though. Interestingly, when I dumped this to an AIFF file and played it back in iTunes, the kick and crash on the 1 of bar 1 were both clearly audible (just not when playing straight out of DB).
I experienced the same problem using the linked ns_kist7free as well over the weekend. To get around what I'm going to call "the anomaly", I would save my file, quit DB and restart DB. I worked out about a 120 second song. . o O ( punk rock! ) This happened on more than just specific instruments from the kit. Cymbals, Snare, Kick all faded in and out in instances. Eventually, I dumped a flawless aiff and imported to work in Pro Tools no problem, but it was definitely classifiable as "flakyness". :) The NS kit Free sound great btw Carl. Thanks for putting it together. Corey
