Hi i have an issue with transition trick. Everything is set up with a Tarekith tutorial and working as expected. There is one problem - when i crossfade between A/B, (where A is a new pattern and B is recorded loop) the tracks from a new pattern gets pitched down and sounds very chaotic. It happens especially when crossfader is in the middle position between A/B scenes.
I have checked everything and can’t find a solution. It sounds really bad and this great trick gets useless… I don’t believe it’s normal.
Please watch a video and help me find a way.
In the video i muted all the tracks from the new pattern (scene A) and leave just a drum loop to clarify the problem. Anyway it affects all the tracks as well.
ok, i have found that some tracks has a parameter locks on the scene B. i have deleted them and it’s like a problem was solved. anyway it’s still sounds not smooth cause i use a lot of different SLICE / SAMPLE START parameter locks on a tracks. i can’t delete them cause it’s make a variations o a sounds on tracks A.
when i choose a scene A that hasn’t any SLICE / SAMPLE START locked on the tracks - crossfading sounds smooth.
is that any solution for make it smooth but still have SLICE / SAMPLE START parameters locks?

Here is the link to the short video:
So:
TRACK 3 is playing a drum loop (the rest is muted)
TRACK 4 is a recorded loop
You can hear what is happening when i make a transition.
Sorry for the bad picture quality.
Thanks you in advance!

thanks a lot for your input - it’s indeed what i have found yesterday’s night. tracks on scene B have some many old (not deleted) parameters locks. anyway please my further info…
after spending some time with that i think that when using crossfader for transition i can’t really use scenes for anything else at the same time - it will always get things moving all over the place (if assigned to other things) - that is probably the nature of that scene /crossfader thing. so probably i need to have one, particular scene A that doesn’t have any parameter locks at all and use it for a transition trick - and when it’s done use some other scenes with parameter locks for a further variations.
i would appreciate your help with a distortion issue cause i’m stack with it - its always the same part when it occurs and it doesn’t matters what loop i record.
Ok, i just have found it! On that particular PART there was a different EQ settings for TRACK4 and DIST was enabled, so the RECORDING4 sounded distorted here:) Uff! SOLVED.
