Musical and linear not working as expected

Cubase

I’ve watched so many videos on this yet cannot get it to work at all.

If I switch all my audio off musical mode and change 2 of my imported loops tracks to musical (So they follow bars and beats)

And the same for 2 other audio tracks into linear (so they follow time)

The result is all 4 tracks act in the same identical way. The ones set to musical time do not stay in the same place as multiple videos have shown.

The linear do what they should. But from my tests all 4 tracks are acting like linear tracks.

Why is this the case?

I’m not sure I totally follow your description of how you have everything setup. There are settings for both Timebase (Linear or Musical) and Musical Mode (On/Off). Depending on the combination you use the results will be different. So it sounds like you’re using the wrong combo somewhere.

If this explanation doesn’t help you sort it out please post some screenshots showing the relevant Timebase and Musical Mode settings.
