This issue has been solved. I simultaneously posted on this site and. Logic aside as well.

I guess Flex was turned on, so it was doing something to it after recording. As soon as I turned it off everything worked.

I knew I was a tighter guitar player than what I was hearing 😉

Thanks again everyone

There’s only 2 tracks so far with this song lol, It should be alright, considering how many I have in other songs that seem ok.

Hi Everyone, thanks for the help

Red Gear: The reason I decided to try and import the tempo is because initially, with follow host clicked and the tempo change only drawn out in logic, the two parts were going out of sync, but only after I recorded it. During recording everything synced together fine. I could hear the tempo change as I recorded the guitar, then when I would listen to the performance, the two parts were out of sync. In trying to solve the problem, I thought that if I imported the tempo to SD3 it would sync together. I’m at the beginning of this song and I only have two parts to contend with so far, a scratch guitar part to build the drums to, and the drum part itself, which I haven’t really started working on because of the sync issue.

Bear-Faced Cow: I think the above statement speaks to your comment as well, as I initially didn’t have any tempo markers in SD3 and expected follow host to do all the work for me. I tried deleting all the tempo markers as you said, and still the problem persists.

As a note, I am (perhaps obviously) not an expert in either program, and I expected SD3 to follow everything in logic. I only started down this rabbit trail because the two programs weren’t syncing the way I assumed they should.

I’m considering ditching the tempo change altogether if I can’t get this to work, though it’s too bad. This song is a fingerpicked electric guitar piece that will just have sparse drums in it as accents. When I played the piece normally I would naturally increase the tempo in the bridge, and I want to be able to mirror that in the recording, albeit with a much subtler tempo change than I tend to in real life. 😉

I really appreciate the suggestions as I’m at a total loss as to what to do.

The tempo in Logic is a gradual line. When I imported the midi into SD3 I noticed what you said, because rather than a gradual line SD3 interpreted that as a series of small gradual changes instead of a smooth line. But I’m ok with that, it’s not a deal breaker lol. Rather, the thing I don’t understand is that when I record over the tempo change everything is in sync, and then when I playback the part I just recorded, it’s then out of sync. When I check the bpm in SD3, it even follows the tempo change, same as Logic.

Why would the playback be out of sync, when it was totally in sync when I recorded it?

This totally worked! Thank you so much, I appreciate it!
