Gapless Playback in Projects

I noticed there is a flaw in the Project section in studio one. There is no latency compensation when splitting events for gapless tracks. Every time I bounce or render with intended gapless tracks there is always still a gap like it's trying to catchup with plugin latency. There needs to be a specific feature to let studio one know that certain pairs of track are gapless!

Hiya
one thing I found recently was a slight work around.
If you right click on the WAV file in the Project Page you can merge with next track to create one long track.
you would need to bounce each of the individual tracks to ensure you Render any processing, but it may help in this example.
All the best

It seems like the playback engine stops at the end of each track, even if it's meant to be gapless, so any plugins you are using in mastering will fail to preserve their processing state across the transition. This makes S1 mostly useless for most gapless mastering tasks. I reported this as a bug but never heard anything back about it.
