I may be wrong, but I thought that the sync drift issues were completely fixed in OS 2.0 so this may be caused by something I'm doing:

I have two samples assigned, one sampled from the outside and the other resampled from the internal drum loop. I had to offset the drum loop by +6 to get it in sync with the first sample, which is offset -4. It all sounds tight until a few minutes later - as I keep working with it and cue the samples in and out I notice they start drifting and very noticeably so! Pressing ALIGN makes it all better but I thought internal samples should never get out of sync, considering they're running of the same clock and with the same sample size.

That is unless shifting samples actually shortens/lengthens them? I always thought that shifting samples keeps them the same length, just moves the sampled window back and forth. Could it be that shifting samples actually just shifts their start point, and not the end point?

Edit: clarified the subject line!

Thanks, that would make sense (although to my ears the drift seems to be too slow to be affected by that), I'll play with it some more and see if it happens without sample shifts.

I like this little feature. For me it seems to actually move it right or left...Adding or deducting silent space hmmmm Think

.....it changes the start point in either case, at least in my experience.
