Hi, I’m having this problem since the update, where in case I don’t place an end marker OR the songs are after each other in the timeline, AbleSet plays 2 bars from the next song in the timeline before jumping to the right song on the setlist.. anyone know why and how to fix this?

Hey @MYBABY, welcome to the forum!

The root cause is usually how the locators/markers are set up in the Ableton session, so let’s check that first.

A few things to verify in your project:

  1. Every song should start with a locator exactly on beat 1 of a bar.
  2. Every song should end with a SONG END locator, also on beat 1 of a bar whenever possible.
  3. Add a time signature change right at the start of each song — even if it’s the same time signature as before (e.g. 4/4 to 4/4).
  4. Once you do this, save your project and reload.

Also, feel free to share a screenshot of how your session is set up (locators + song boundaries) so we can take a closer look.

I’d also recommend grabbing the latest beta once you’ve confirmed the locator setup.

I’m looking forward to your reply!
