Question

Multitrack opened on 2 different computers looks different

Hi,

I insert few recordings into multitrack, saved it and gave colleague to cut it.

Received a multitrack file that on the beginning looks good but further the timeline there is more "delay".

Finally, after 40-60 minutes on the timeline cuts are located in the middle of the sentence instead of the end of sentence. Everything looks ok on colleague computer.

    Can you explain a bit more, please?  Specifically, what do you mean when you say the second person "cut those files on multitrack"?

    To me, if a file is "cut" it is changed = edited, so the session on your colleague's computer must be "different" to yours.

    I've sent to colleague multitrack which looks like that:

    Received multitrack which looks like that (the same multitrack but some parts was cut out. No changes made in raw wav files.)

    When colleague open edited .sesx file and export it to mp3 it looks good. When I open the very same file the cuts are misplaced in audio. When export it to mp3 cuts in different places than it should be.

    After cut we work on the very same file and receive different results when export to mp3. :/ I work on Mac, colleague on PC. Both on CC.

    Have you received the new edited .sesx from your colleague and opened that on your computer? Does that have the cuts in the correct place before you export to .mp3?

    Could you explain your workflow and what you sent to your colleague in a bit more detail please? Are you sending him both the .ses file that you made as well as the actual audio files used in that session? And what did you receive back from him after he had edited the audio?

    Hi,

    I send sesx file and few wav files that are in the multitrack. Wav files are not edited by second person. She only cut those wav's on multitrack.

    Then, if we both export multitrack to mp3 from the very same file we have different results in exported file.

    What can cause that?
