Yes, this is how I’ve dealt with it so far, but it’sfar fromoptimal and that’s why I propose a tighter internal sync protocolin orderto solvethose issues. Thanks for the detailed reply though, it should be a very useful post for beginners reading this topic. 
Now after just having finished reading taktik’s comments on the 3.0 beta version community feedback, I can’t help but feel a bit silly about making suggestions and spitting out ideas regarding Renoise finetuning and features. Since they have so much to do, and so little time to do it, it seems rather pointless to hope forany non-mainstream new features at all. Oh well.
