- Sometimes it works as expected.
- Sometimes the cursor will loop, but the transport plays on.
- Sometimes the cursor will continue, but the transport will loop.
- Punching in/out within a loop often causes out of time recording, the amount seems unrelated to latency settings. The amount of "out of timeness" can change for each start/stop of the transport. Also happens when using "Auto Return".
- It is unrelated to using the GUI, hotkeys, MIDI or Mackie controllers.
- When it seems to work, I find it will almost always just stop looping after an indeterminate number of loops, and the cursor sometimes appears at the end of the session. If the loop is very small (a bar or less), it will definitely go bad after a few cycles, sometimes causing a crash.
This happens with both raw ALSA and through Jackd. There is nothing weird in my setup. I have no external sync happening. I run looping as a transport mode. I've even taken the time to install different distros (admittedly all Debian based) to see if it were an issue there.
It's been like this right through the 3.x series. I reported it ages ago and I humbly ask for a fix, preferably before I go totally insane.
