Time markers in editor not working efficiently

I’ve written this before but apparently not in this forum yet: I have problems with the time marker function in the notes tab.

Same as the FlexLoop function currently cannot be programmed to jump back and forth in time I neither can jump back in the notes when I hit a part that had a time stamp AFTER the (second or third) time stamp that I - in my example - have added to the Chorus section BEFORE the other.

Would love to not only be able to program VST Live to jump back and forth the parts as I set it in a list, would also like the notes to always show me the time marker no matter there comes a marker later in time before a marker that comes before again…

Notes TimeStamps are time based and therefore playheads pos what counts

How else then?

In my example: Once the verse 3 gets played and then the chorus again it’s not jumping back to the chorus section in my notes - even I added several different time stamps that imo should bring the focus back on the chorus

Do I understand right, you put multiple timestamps to that line, like this? That solution doesn’t work me either.

[time beat 0.256]
[time beat 12]
[time beat 17]
CHORUS-asdfasdf

[time beat 4]
asdfasdfasdf

[time beat 8]

// NOR THIS

[time beat 0.256] [time beat 12] [time beat 17]

[time beat 4]

I think he’s saying that when the playback point is changed then the lyrics should also reposition. Of course they should.

Well. I’m actually waiting for a better import of chords and lyrics. However, as VST Live is as it is, it doesn’t make sense to me to use the provided lyrics and chords functionality yet (see Enter and move lyrics and chords more easily - #8 by musicullum ). Instead I am using the Notes tab that however doesn’t seem to be able to jump back in line when I insert two or three different time stamps on the same line that are all starting at differenrt times. Wished VST Live could jump back and forth here too…

Will work next version

Not sur if it works when on the same line, better create a new line for each Time Marker. Then it should work with the next version.
