Well its purely a cubase 5 problem as i made a new project file for the track and it now works perfectly. The project file just held automation for the vst effects i used on my rewire channels.
would love to know what i did to that project that ruined it cos it could be devastating if it happened further in on a project.
music program cubase 5 rewired to reason 5 and plug in delay compensation is not enabled
The problem has returned to my project
I have had a look at it closer and my description in the earlier post is not very good.
What is happening is my track in export has the first 2 beats missing and the automation for plug in is playing without the 2 beats missing. This means my effects happen 2 beats later than they should. So for instance on my track, its a dance track, the effect is automated to play on beats 7 and 8 of the track now happens on beats 9 and 10.
Sorry for the poor title description i could not think of how to describe it.
