I use external sequencer where everything is in bars/beats so, I've enabled the Bars-Beats ruler because I assumed it would make things easier. But here's the problem. I wanted to go to position 3-1-000 (beginning of bar 3), however when I move along the ruler by holding the shift, movement is being snap to the 2-4-959 instead of 3-1-000

index.php?t=getfile&id=805&private=0

I wonder is this a bug? Because to me it makes no sense, since i've enabled the grid. Now, the first beat of the third bar is 3-1-000. Why is the "Now Line" being snapped to 2-4-959 instead?

Ok so i assumed this was a bug. So i went to manual location input. Here is exactly what I typed in:

index.php?t=getfile&id=803&private=0

Yet here is where the "Now Line" actually went:

index.php?t=getfile&id=802&private=0

Is this a bug as well?

Maybe i'm just doing something wrong. Embarassed

Yep, more or less a bug - a known issue anyway. The "bar grid" has about eighty samples of "slop" - this was somehow related to allowing PARIS to play back files of different bit depths in the same session. Here's some more info from Edmund.
