BPMs not syncing

[D-Man]

The issue I am having is that ever since Cross 2.8 and upwards, the sync with master button does not match the BPMs at all for me and I have no idea why

Apologies if this has been answered somewhere before; I have read the past posts about sync issues and tried the suggestions which have not worked for me (however cant say I have truly understood them all so may be missing something so would appreciate the help here)

I am using vinyl/DVS, having sync link on/off does not appear to change this and neither does enabling/ disabling the quarts and snaps)

I also encountered this once a few weeks ago, and then for about 30 minutes last friday. I haven't been able to accurately repeat the issue though, so I'm going to be trying out some things to see if I can nail down what might be causing it.

If mine is the same as yours, then the BPM's read the same but the beats drift apart even with the graphics and beat indicators lining up?

I think I've seen this, except graphics show that the beat is drifting even though the BPM values are the same

with mine the BPMs wont read the same, it seems to simply not respond to the sync at all so really not to sure whats going on with it

I've been encountering the same BPM sync problem too and have written about it in another post. I am re-posting part of it here. My issue is a BPM problem when I mix audio & video in the sample pad area 1-4. BPM starts to increase and I have to manually overwrite the BPM to desired beat and hit return. Songs sound like alvin & the chipmunks after a couple of mp4 videos play. It's almost like the BPM couner has a mind of its own. Can't operate like that.

Here is what I wrote in: viewtopic.php?f=358&t=32581&start=30

Hi FigDJ, when I load a full music video or mp3 into the sample pads in Deck C or D, after awhile the BPM (displayed in the bpm window next to Master/Sync buttons are much higher). They don't reset to what should be the proper BPM stored in the collection file upon loading & playing.
(Ex. I had a slow song at 84.00 BPM that when loaded and played on Deck D, played at 138.00 BPM! I have to literally click into the BPM window and type in the proper BPM then hit return. This can't be right! It happens pretty much on every song in the pad area.
Deck A & B seem to hold the BPM very well. It's only within the sample pad area that is the problem. (all of my pitch faders are half mast and mode set to MT....I never moved them when this happens)

I notice there are little Start/Stop buttons for Beatclock next to the Deck C & D labels. What the heck does the Beatclock do? Can't find anything in the maual on this. Is there an updated manual for 3.1 yet? Anyway, I did click on Beatclock <Stop> then <Start> and after a couple of times I got lucky with a BPM reset on Sample Pad D to proper song BPM. I also notice these round 'Sync-Meters' ?? going around on all of the deck labels when only 1 song or video is playing. Don't know why these go around or should be stopped or what???

I notice under Preferences-->Video tab there is a check box for 'Separate Audio/Video Loading. Could this be it? Mine is unchecked.

Hope we can get some answers...thanks
