Export Problems in SX

I'm having some problems with the automatation in SX2. The first is with the trancegate mix knob in Vanguard. I draw the automatation in SX and it plays well (by the way, it's an instant change from 0 to max and then back to 0 leaving one bar trancegated) but when i export it it does the change i made but out of place (1/16 before, not sure if it's exact). it also, in the middle of nowhere (meaning random) it does a filter change (don't know if it's vanguard or karmaFX filter... but vanguard filter is not automated and karmaFX is something like 20 bars before).
sounds like a setup problem? has this happened to anyone? any ideas?

the other problem is with Synth1. well i load the patch and play a loop (which starts with 2 automatations... 8 bars of cutoff increase and then 8 bars of fm increase and then some bars of no automatation, just playing). when i replays the loop the sound is different... i can't explain it but it sounds either detuned, pitched up or fm changed... something like this, makes it sound gay (i don't know Synth1 really well). i have to load the patch again to make it nice again. wouldn't really be a problem but when i export it it always sounds gay!

thanks in advance


PS: oh i forgot. i have a SoundBlaster PCI64 and i installed Asio4All today. could this have something related? like some delay, setup problem?
i had some automatation problems before but never while exporting.

When you play back the automation, try and make sure you don't have the automation track selected as this can sometimes cause it not to be played back correctly. If you're looping a section, try inserting automation events right on the beginning of the loop so that every time it loops back it picks up the correct automation values.           Mastering - http://mastering.OOOD.net :: www.is.gd/mastering

no it's not that.
i export the whole song in a fresh start of cubase (run cubase.exe -> load song -> activate all VST in the mixer -> export audio mixdown)
i get the trancegate before the way i drawn it (2/16 of a bar... not exact as i thought before) and when it starts playing the synth1 it sounds different (worst, as i said before).
the random filter problem disapeared this time (with the fresh start) but the other 2 problems are irritating enough

I'm not sure what's causing this. What version of SX are you using (look in Help -> About)? Which audio drivers - ASIO?

Why do you have to 'activate all VST in the mixer'?           Mastering - http://mastering.OOOD.net :: www.is.gd/mastering

cause i have a P3 1000mhz that can't handle the number of VST's i use in a track (4-6 inserts per channel and lots of channels).
i use the ASIO Multimedia Driver (the only that works). by the way i uninstalled Asio4All should i install it again?
i can't tell you the SX version because it has just crashed... grr

problem solved... i discovered that synth1 was changing the waveform for no reason (not the detune\fm change i said before... i'm not experienced with synth1 hehe)... so instead of reloading the patch i changed the waveform in synth1... and it never happened again... why? no idea... lol
the vanguard problem i just deleted the automtation... i want to finish this track, not stuck up with stupid bugs
