I am using Samplitude 7.11 with an Echo Layla 24/96 input device. I can get a click, a scratch guitar and 7 drum mic inputs in just fine. Then I go to overdub the original guitar or add bass whatever and the last track I add starts ok, but gets off sync after awhile. It is super annoying. I have experimented with having to do the track over and over etc... to see if it gets worse (meaning earlier in the track), but that isn't predictable. I have played with buffers, and keep up on deleting unused wav's, but still get this problem. The real bite is that I don't remember always having this problem with other projects using numerous tracks. I am thinking at this point it is a RAM issue as I am only running 256 at this time, which I know seems unthinkable and I have always been ready to throw another stick in, but like I said, it hasn't always been a problem. Oh yea, my computer isn't choking while recording the new track. I have tried freezing tracks as well. Anybody have any ideas.
Thanks
Tom :x

I'm almost sure, that this is a problem with your trackspeed settings in Samplitude...
1- Open your project
2- Press SHIFT + TAB
3- Go to "Program".

4- Click over "Trackspeed Settings", and make sure all the fields show "Cache Off" pressing the minus sign the necessary times.

5- Finally, if you haven't changed your Layla to "Purewave" mode, open your Layla mixer, go to settings, advanced, and switch from "WDM" to "Purewave", press "Apply" and select "Update Now".
6- Check the Purewave buffer, I've found that something between 256 and 1024, works best for me, if I use too much buffer like values above 2048 samples, I start to get skipping problems.

Hope this helps. :D
Thanks Maxmex, I made the changes, I will be testing things out
Thanks Maxmex,
I made the changes, I will be testing things out soon to see. Sure appreciate your input. I was thinking about contacting Magix, but I was leaning towards adding the RAM anyway, and then see what happens. I don't quite understand all the changes I made (difference between Purewave and WDM) , but I have some things to research now.
Thanks again
Tom
Have you contacted tech support at Magix? THey're pretty good
Have you contacted tech support at Magix? THey're pretty good about these things, and will work with you to solve it.
There's also the users forum on their website (http://) where you can post this problem and discuss it with someone there. Chances are, someone else had had a similar issue like yours and has fixed it.
You may not want to spend the $$ yet, but V8 has already come and gone, and V9 is out as well.
Good luck with it, regardless.
