Hello, I exported 6 AIFFs (one for each string instrument) from a string sextet project. But when I drag them into Logic or even Final Cut, they are not in sync—although all the AIFFs are the same length, the Violin I starts out in sync with the others but gets out of sync somewhere along the way. I tried applying Standard HP but that didn’t help; the exported AIFFs still get out of sync. I have even removed all non-specific tempo markings (rit, accel, fermati, etc.). The only tempo markings are BPM values.

Note: Having no HP is not an option for me since I'm using NotePerformer and need to make a high-quality demo.

I once experienced this problem in that the total running time of each part exported as a .wav file was slightly different. I believe HP may apply different tempi to separate parts. In my case I solved it by using "fit to time:" Select Midi Tool/Edit Tempo. (Highlight the measure stacks that are to be timed. Select Midi Tool/Fit to Time and apply the time that the piece should run). This may not give you the result you want, but it's worth a try.

Ok thank you I will try that next time.
