Bug: Lyric Visualizer switches to another lyric track

VST Live
1

Hi there,
I’m new here and haven’t found another entry talking about this issue.

I have two lyric tracks, a marker track for song parts and a lyric only track.

In the lyric visualizer i select the lyric track, but it automatically changes to my marker track when the part changes.
Also it seems to go out of sync with the song part playback indicator (within the setlist screen)

Is this a known issue?

More Details to what I have done:

I have imported two marker tracks from cubase 12 Pro (12.0.70) to VST Live 3 Pro (3.0.20.128).
The first marker track is a marker track describing the song parts and the second contains lyrics (as I found it hard to edit them in VST Live yet)..

Kind regards

If I may humbly ask: What‘s the difference between the „two lyric tracks“ and the „lyric only track“? :slightly_smiling_face:

The marker track is just information about the parts, for example “Verse 1”, “Pre Chorus”, “Chorus”, etc…

The lyrics track contains the lyrics.

I could think of even more lyric tracks containing additional notes for technicians or guiding information as for example “tune to Drop C” or something like that.

Do you the Song Track?

With that one you can order your project in Verse, Chorus ..

.. an imported Marker Track from Cubase will be converted to a Lyric Track.

Let me add some screenshots here

The first Track sends its events to the Visualizer

That’s what is not running correctly? Right? Can you give me some hints? Maybe a step-by-styp tutorial to understand it?

Thank you,

Hey, thanks for the reply! Here is my setup:

  1. WOS1_RedSky - Song track
  • used to create parts (for song navigation mostly) “Let’s start again at Chorus 2”
  • automatically created from my arranger track in my Cubase session via Cubase→Vst Live→Export Project
  1. Marker - Track
  • might be used for text guidance, for example “Keep in mind to tune to Drop C”
  • in this example I have just copied the song parts
  • automatically created as well from my Cycle-Marker Track in my Cubase session via Cubase→Vst Live→Export Project
  1. Lyrics - Track
  • used, well, for lyrics… :slight_smile:

Problem:

  1. I open the lyrics tab (but happens within the other lyric monitors as well) and select my lyrics track
  2. start the song at Chorus 1
  3. the lyrics show up
  4. when song proceeds to the next part (Verse 1) the monitor switches to the Marker-track. But that’s a different use case as I want to use the monitor for lyrics only.

Hope this helps to understand my situation. :slight_smile:
