Hi, it's me again, the old fart with slow computers and big Qtractor projects.
Yesterday I ran into a little issue when I wanted to do some latency measurements with jack_iodelay. The steps were:
1.) connect jack_iodelay's audio out to an input bus.
2.) Add into this input bus an Aux-Send to an output bus named "Common". The "Common" output bus has already an Aux-Send to the Master bus.
-> That works "kinda". The signal from jack_iodelay is audible. But only in the "Common" bus the meter shows a signal. In the Master bus the meter shows nothing and plugins don't affect/process the signal.
3.) When I switch the Aux Send in the "Common" bus to none and back to Master, then everything works as expected.
It's not reproducable in a fresh, minimal session but in an existing big project, so I could make a screencast.
EDIT:
It is reproducable in a fresh session, e.g. in the attached sample session.
re. Race Condition when creating Aux-Sends?...
maybe it's rooted on an old session? one that predates the v1.3.0 xbuses2 change?
can you reproduce the issue on a really fresh session from scratch and not from stripping out an old session that was last saved when the aux-send reordering feature was not yet in place?
cheers
yes, see freshly created and attached session
re. freshly created and attached session...
please describe all the steps one by one you take to come up with the repro session, assuming the first step is to start with a brand new and empty session (ie. File > New, with no New-template option).
asking for this because I just can't repro the issue on a new fresh session--while creating the same set of buses and respective aux-sends and routing--so the devil must be in the details ;)
hyu.
New screencast
It seems that the order is important. It happens when the Aux Send from the Common Bus to the Master Bus is created before the Aux Send from the Input Bus to the Common Bus.
Please see the attached screencast, step by step from an empty session.
re. New screencast...
indeed it is
thanks for the heads up.
cheers
