Synchron Player VST playback stutter

[ravez]

Hi

when playing a track with a VST (including VST3) instance of Synchron Player in Cubase or Studio One, every time there is a change of articulation (or sound variation) while the Synchron Player window is open, the playhead will stutter at the beginning of that note for half a second.

If i close the player window, the playhead runs smooth.

This makes it impossible to draw smooth CC curves while the player is open, because the curve will be flat during that half-second.

This is independent of the preset used.

This doesn't happen if Synchron player is loaded through VEP7 or if i use AU version in Logic.

I am using latest version of all the mentioned softwares.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi Marnix, customer service hasn't answered me in weeks, even after they sent me a video showing they can replicate the issue, without any comments or acknowledgment of the problem. 

Did you keep your Synchron Player open? if you close it there is no issue, it only stutters when changing articulations while the player is open, which is mandatory in S1 to automate curves, and if i record a fader ramp it will make it a stepped curve any time it changes articulation.

I attach the screenshot showing the stepped curve result, the video showing the stutter and the S1 project you want to try to replicate.

Hello ravez,

Anyone from VSL looking into this? @marnix

Hi! Not anymore, no. But I just checked again with my Studio One 6 & the current Synchron Player. While the Studio One playhead lags during articulation switches, I have no issues recording CC data here. Could you please elaborate on how you are recording CC automation and why the Synchron Player GUI needs to be open for that? That's the part that puzzles everyone here a bit. Best, Andreas

It's just for when using automation that the player needs to be open.

But nevermind, it is what it is.
